CVE-2023-31083: BUG: general protection fault in hci_uart_tty_ioctl
An issue was discovered in drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c in the Linux kernel 6.2. In hci_uart_tty_ioctl, there is a race condition between HCIUARTSETPROTO and HCIUARTGETPROTO. HCI_UART_PROTO_SET is set before hu->proto is set. A NULL pointer dereference may occur.

Hello,
We found the following issue using syzkaller on Linux v6.2.0.
In function `hci_uart_tty_ioctl`, there is a race condition between HCIUARTSETPROTO and HCIUARTGETPROTO. HCI_UART_PROTO_SET is set before `hu->proto` is set. Thus it may dereference a null pointer.
The full report including the Syzkaller reproducer & C reproducer: https://gist.github.com/ZHYfeng/a3e3ff2bdfea5ed5de5475f0b54d55cb
The brief report is below:
Syzkaller hit ‘general protection fault in hci_uart_tty_ioctl’ bug.
