The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Bluetooth: hci_core: Fix race condition during device registration In hci_register_dev(), the power_on     work item is queued to hdev->req_workqueue before initializing hdev->adv_monitors_idr and registering the     MSFT extension via msft_register(). For devices marked with quirks such as HCI_QUIRK_RAW_DEVICE, the     HCI_UNCONFIGURED flag is set on the device. When the power_on work item runs concurrently on another CPU,     hci_power_on() detects that the device is unconfigured and immediately invokes hci_dev_do_close(), which     calls msft_do_close(). Concurrently, msft_register() allocates the msft structure and exposes it to     hdev->msft_data prior to calling mutex_init(&msft->filter_lock). If msft_do_close() executes while     hdev->msft_data is already assigned but the mutex has not yet been initialized,     mutex_lock(&msft->filter_lock) operates on an uninitialized mutex, triggering a DEBUG_LOCKS warning:
    DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->magic != lock) WARNING: kernel/locking/mutex.c:625 at __mutex_lock_common     kernel/locking/mutex.c:625 [inline] WARNING: kernel/locking/mutex.c:625 at __mutex_lock+0x12d8/0x1550     kernel/locking/mutex.c:821 ...

Additionally, assign hdev->msft_data in     msft_register() only after mutex_init(&msft->filter_lock) has completed. (CVE-2026-98109)
