A flaw was found in the Bluetooth L2CAP (Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol) component of the Linux kernel. The l2cap_get_conf_opt() function, responsible for processing configuration options, does not properly validate the length of an option before attempting to read its value. This allows an attacker to control the option length, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds read of up to 4 bytes past the end of a buffer. Although current safeguards prevent immediate data leakage, this vulnerability represents a critical validate-after-use ordering bug that could be exploited in future system configurations.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: L2CAP: validate option length before reading conf opt value l2cap_get_conf_opt() derives the option length from the attacker-controlled opt->len field and immediately dereferences opt->val (as u8, get_unaligned_le16() or get_unaligned_le32(), or a raw pointer for the default case) before any caller has confirmed that opt->len bytes are present in the buffer. The callers (l2cap_parse_conf_req(), l2cap_parse_conf_rsp() and l2cap_conf_rfc_get()) only detect a malformed option afterwards, once the running length has gone negative, by which point the out-of-bounds read has already executed. An existing post-hoc length check keeps the garbage value from being consumed, so this is not a data leak in the current control flow. It is still a validate-after-use ordering bug: up to 4 bytes are read past the end of the buffer before it is known to contain them, and it is fragile to future changes in the callers. Fix i...
