CVE-2026-93247

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

Bluetooth: mgmt: fix 'hdev->discovery.uuids' NULL dereference

'uuid_count' member of struct 'discovery_state' is assigned and read
without any locks, so there is a chance of situation when
uuid_count != 0, but uuids is NULL and there will be NULL pointer
dereference.

Possible race:
'hci_update_passive_scan_sync'
  'hci_discovery_filter_clear'
    hdev->discovery.uuid_count = 0;
      <----------------------preempted----------------------------->
                        'start_service_discovery'
                          // Set uuid_count to value != 0
                          hdev->discovery.uuid_count = uuid_count;
                          hdev->discovery.uuids = kmemdup(...);
      <----------------------preempted----------------------------->
    spin_lock(&hdev->discovery.lock);
    kfree(hdev->discovery.uuids);
    hdev->discovery.uuids = NULL;
    spin_unlock(&hdev->discovery.lock);

Now uuids == NULL and uuid_count != 0.
So 'mgmt_device_found' -> 'is_filter_match' -> 'eir_has_uuids' receives
non consistent discovery state, where NULL dereference of uuids happens.

To fix it let's add discovery.lock around every read/write of uuid_count,
uuids pair of struct members. It is also important to assign uuid_count
value only after success kmemdup() allocation in
start_service_discovery(), otherwise uuids is NULL, because kmemdup failed,
but uuid_count is already assigned to non zero value.

The following panic happens:
