Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_{ldisc,serdev}: check percpu_init_rwsem() failure
syzbot is reporting NULL pointer dereference at hci_uart_tty_close() [1],
for rcu_sync_enter() is called without rcu_sync_init() due to
hci_uart_tty_open() ignoring percpu_init_rwsem() failure.
While we are at it, fix that hci_uart_register_device() ignores
percpu_init_rwsem() failure and hci_uart_unregister_device() does not
call percpu_free_rwsem().
