      <title>CVE-2026-90254 — Bluetooth: hci_sync: free the advertising instance on the failure and cancel paths</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-90254</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bluetooth: hci_sync: free the advertising instance on the failure and cancel paths&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;adv_timeout_expire() hands a kmalloc()ed instance byte to
hci_cmd_sync_queue() with a NULL destroy callback, and only
adv_timeout_expire_sync() frees it. That leaks on two paths:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- the return value is not checked, and hci_cmd_sync_queue() does not
   take ownership when it fails (-ENETDOWN, -ENODEV, -ENOMEM);&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- a cancelled entry is not released, as _hci_cmd_sync_cancel_entry()
   does not free entry-&amp;gt;data when there is no destroy callback.
   hci_cmd_sync_clear() cancels every pending entry when the controller
   is unregistered.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Free the buffer from a destroy callback, and in the caller when the entry
could not be queued at all.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
