8.8 · HIGH
Published Aug 15, 2026 EPSS 0.24% (15th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-74535 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 15, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: ISO: avoid deadlocks in iso_sock_timeout

iso_sock_timeout() takes lock_sock, so sync disabling the timer while

holding that lock may deadlock.

iso_sock_timeout() may also run concurrently with iso_conn_del(), which

leads to UAF

[Task 1] [Task hdev->workqueue]

iso_sock_timeout iso_conn_del

iso_conn_hold_unless_zero iso_chan_del

`------------> iso_conn_put

caller frees hcon

iso_conn_put

iso_conn_free

conn->hcon->iso_data = NULL; /* UAF */

Fix the deadlock by removing the disable from the lock_sock sections.

Move the timer from iso_conn to iso_pinfo to decouple it from iso_conn

which may need to be freed in lock_sock section. Convert some of the

clear_timer to disable_timer.
