Description

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

Bluetooth: btmtk: adjust the position to init iso data anchor

MediaTek iso data anchor init should be moved to where MediaTek
claims iso data interface.
If there is an unexpected BT usb disconnect during setup flow,
it will cause a NULL pointer crash issue when releasing iso
anchor since the anchor wasn't been init yet. Adjust the position
to do iso data anchor init.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
