Bluetooth: RFCOMM: validate skb length in MCC handlers

2026-06-03T15:21:03+00:00

The RFCOMM MCC handlers cast skb->data to protocol-specific structs without validating skb->len first. A malicious remote device can send truncated MCC frames and trigger out-of-bounds reads in these handlers. Fix this by using skb_pull_data() to validate and access the required data before dereferencing it. rfcomm_recv_rpn() requires special handling since ETSI TS 07.10 allows 1-byte RPN requests. Handle this by validating only the DLCI byte first, and validating the full struct only when len > 1.

Bluetooth: RFCOMM: pull credit byte with skb_pull_data()

2026-05-06T20:23:20+00:00

rfcomm_recv_data() treats the first payload byte as a credit field when the UIH frame carries PF and credit-based flow control is enabled. After the header has been stripped, the PF/CFC path consumes that byte with a direct skb->data dereference followed by skb_pull(). A malformed short frame can reach this path without a byte available. Use skb_pull_data() so the length check and pull happen together before the returned credit byte is consumed.

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

net: Convert proto_ops connect() callbacks to use sockaddr_unsized

2025-11-05T03:10:32+00:00

Update all struct proto_ops connect() callback function prototypes from "struct sockaddr *" to "struct sockaddr_unsized *" to avoid lying to the compiler about object sizes. Calls into struct proto handlers gain casts that will be removed in the struct proto conversion patch. No binary changes expected.

Revert "Bluetooth: hci_core: Fix sleeping function called from invalid context"

This reverts commit 4d94f05558271654670d18c26c912da0c1c15549 which has problems (see [1]) and is no longer needed since 581dd2dc168f ("Bluetooth: hci_event: Fix using rcu_read_(un)lock while iterating") has reworked the code where the original bug has been found.
