CVE-2024-24859: CWE-362 Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') in Linux Linux kernel
A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's net/bluetooth in sniff_{min,max}_interval_set() function. This can result in a bluetooth sniffing exception issue, possibly leading denial of service.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves a race condition (CWE-362) in the Linux kernel's net/bluetooth code, within the sniff_{min,max}_interval_set() functions. Improper synchronization when accessing shared resources can cause a Bluetooth sniffing exception, which may result in denial of service. The issue is present in Linux kernel version v4.0-rc1. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates the attack requires adjacent network access, high attack complexity, high privileges, and user interaction, with no confidentiality impact, low integrity impact, and high availability impact.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability can cause a denial of service via a Bluetooth sniffing exception in affected Linux kernel versions. There is no indication of confidentiality or integrity compromise. No known exploits have been reported in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should monitor vendor communications for updates. No specific mitigations are provided in the current data.
