  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix status of pending commands flushed on power off  cmd_complete_rsp() receives a struct cmd_lookup and, for a pending command that has no cmd_complete callback, falls through to cmd_status_rsp(cmd, data). cmd_status_rsp() reads data as a u8 *, so the status sent comes from the first byte of match-\u003Esk\u0027s representation, not from match-\u003Emgmt_status.  commit f53e1c9c726d (\u0022Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix possible crash on mgmt_index_removed\u0022) changed the callers\u0027 data from \u0026status to \u0026match and updated the cmd_complete branch to match-\u003Emgmt_status, but left the fall-through passing data unchanged.  In mgmt_index_removed() match-\u003Esk is NULL, so every such command is answered with status 0x00 (Success) instead of MGMT_STATUS_INVALID_INDEX. In __mgmt_power_off() it is NULL too, unless a Set Powered command was pending: then settings_rsp() has stored that command\u0027s socket in match-\u003Esk, and the byte sent comes from the socket pointer. Either way the status the caller set, MGMT_STATUS_NOT_POWERED (or MGMT_STATUS_INVALID_INDEX when the device is being unregistered), is lost.  Pass the status the callers set.  This was seen on a QCA9377 laptop: bluetoothd\u0027s Start Discovery, pending when the adapter was powered off, was answered with Command Status 0x00 and no parameters, and bluetoothd 5.72 crashed on the zero-length success. BlueZ master has since added the length check on that path (\u0022adapter: Fix crash on short start discovery reply\u0022, BlueZ a734b06059cb), but userspace should still be told Not Powered, not Success.  Tested on Ubuntu 7.0.0-31 with a virtual controller (hci_vhci): power off is held in HCI Write Scan Enable while a Start Discovery is submitted, and the flush answers it with status 0x00 before this change and 0x0f (Not Powered) after.",
