**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Linux kernel versions prior to 6.8.0-2024-03-19-intel-next-iLS-24ww14 **Description** The issue is related to possible deadlocks in the Bluetooth management (MGMT) component of the Linux kernel, caused by the `hci cmd sync dequeue` function. This can lead to a task being blocked for more than 120 seconds. The problem is associated with the `mgmt set connectable complete` function and the `hci cmd sync work` workqueue. **Recommendations** To resolve the issue, update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix for the deadlock issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the Bluetooth functionality until a patch is available. Restrict access to the Bluetooth management interface to minimize the risk of exploitation.
