CVE-2026-68392: Bluetooth: mgmt: fix locking in unpair_device/disconnect_sync
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 31/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.12% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 16cd66443957e4ad42155c6fec401012f600c6f8, 579faba5ede6df6b7f36777c431dc8dcf9d272e7, 6.11; azl3 kernel 6.6.143.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.150.1-1.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 16cd66443957e4ad42155c6fec401012f600c6f8, 579faba5ede6df6b7f36777c431dc8dcf9d272e7, 6.11; azl3 kernel 6.6.143.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.150.1-1 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: mgmt: fix locking in unpair_device/disconnect_sync Dereferencing RCU-protected pointers outside critical sections is invalid and may lead to UAF. Take hdev->lock for hci_conn lookup and hci_abort_conn(). Don't use RCU to ensure the conn is fully initialized at this point.

Exploit status
No known public exploit
No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.
Research context
For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.
Timeline
From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.
No dated events beyond publication.
FIRST EPSS daily score; only changes of 0.01 or more are recorded (step chart).
Patch and commit links
Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.
No commit or PR link among the references.
Credits
All researchersFinders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.
No credits in the CNA record.
Variant candidates
Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.
No nightly-computed relations.
Chain candidates
An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
