A cancelled entry is\nleaked, as _hci_cmd_sync_cancel_entry() does not release entry->data when\nthere is no destroy callback, and hci_cmd_sync_clear() cancels every\npending entry when the controller is unregistered. Nothing else reclaims\nit either: mgmt_pending_new() does not put the command on\nhdev->mgmt_pending.\n\nThe leak also pins the socket reference taken by mgmt_pending_new(), so\nthe mgmt socket is never released.\n\nFree the command from a destroy callback."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/bluetooth/mgmt.c"],"versions":[{"version":"b338d91703fae6f6afd67f3f75caa3b8f36ddef3","lessThan":"b609341ee56967d9a45845ff26f79336d2114b55","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"b338d91703fae6f6afd67f3f75caa3b8f36ddef3","lessThan":"416fabca9b7237b76aa9cafcf8c497b8ac00d88c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"b338d91703fae6f6afd67f3f75caa3b8f36ddef3","lessThan":"88e30d036d777b00aed42bd35000de23ff40910c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"b338d91703fae6f6afd67f3f75caa3b8f36ddef3","lessThan":"05438d338a875a9daa08ca3f6a35b4480cf13de4","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"b338d91703fae6f6afd67f3f75caa3b8f36ddef3","lessThan":"fa46d428c014e7b72a18634679815670418e67dc","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"b338d91703fae6f6afd67f3f75caa3b8f36ddef3","lessThan":"3c742feda8fcabf741a17bcf668b63c8f606f9c5","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/bluetooth/mgmt.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.1","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.1","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.188","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.157","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.110","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.52","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.6","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3-rc1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.188"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.157"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.110"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.52"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.6"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"7.3-rc1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b609341ee56967d9a45845ff26f79336d2114b55"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/416fabca9b7237b76aa9cafcf8c497b8ac00d88c"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/88e30d036d777b00aed42bd35000de23ff40910c"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/05438d338a875a9daa08ca3f6a35b4480cf13de4"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fa46d428c014e7b72a18634679815670418e67dc"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3c742feda8fcabf741a17bcf668b63c8f606f9c5"}],"title":"Bluetooth: MGMT: free the mesh send cancel command when it is cancelled","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
