It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-64405 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64405/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64405/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-64405","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64405/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-64405","record":{"aliases":["AZL-93452","BELL-CVE-2026-64405","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-64405","GHSA-xvhg-76qh-24v9","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-64405","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-64405"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel Bluetooth","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel Bluetooth subsystem allows attackers to cause a system crash via a general protection fault.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nBluetooth: hci_conn: Fix null ptr deref in hci_abort_conn()\n\nhci_abort_conn() read hci_skb_event(hdev-\u003esent_cmd) when a connection\nwas pending, but hdev-\u003esent_cmd can be NULL while req_status is still\nHCI_REQ_PEND, leading to a NULL pointer dereference and a general\nprotection fault from the hci_rx_work() receive path.\n\nInstead of inspecting hdev-\u003esent_cmd, track the in-flight create\nconnection command with a new per-connection HCI_CONN_CREATE flag and\nroute all cancellation through hci_cancel_connect_sync(), which\ndispatches to a dedicated per-type cancel function. The create command\nis in exactly one of two states: still queued, or in flight. The cancel\nfunction holds cmd_sync_work_lock across the whole decision: the worker\ntakes this lock to dequeue every entry, so while it is held a queued\ncommand cannot start running and an in-flight command cannot complete\nand let the next command become pending. This keeps the flag test and\nhci_cmd_sync_cancel() atomic with respect to the worker, so a queued\ncommand is simply dequeued, and an in-flight command owned by this\nconnection is cancelled without the risk of cancelling an unrelated\ncommand that became pending in the meantime.
