In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: validate frame length before control and FCS access
l2cap_data_rcv() unpacks either a two-byte or four-byte control field
without first ensuring that it is present. A short ERTM or streaming-mode
frame can therefore cause an out-of-bounds read.
There is a second short-frame case when CRC16 is enabled. After the
control field is pulled, l2cap_check_fcs() subtracts two from skb->len
without checking it. If fewer than two bytes remain, the subtraction
wraps; skb_trim() leaves the buffer unchanged and the subsequent FCS
load reads past the logical end of the frame.
Validate that the frame contains both its control field and, when
enabled, its FCS before either field is accessed.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol (L2CAP) implementation. An adjacent attacker within Bluetooth range could exploit this vulnerability by transmitting specially crafted, undersized network frames. Because the kernel fails to validate packet length before processing control and Frame Check Sequence (FCS) fields, an out-of-bounds read occurs. This flaw primarily results in a system crash, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS), and may potentially expose sensitive kernel memory.
Отчет
This vulnerability is rated as having a Moderate impact because exploitation requires adjacent physical proximity and an active Bluetooth interface on the host. In typical Red Hat Enterprise Linux server environments, Bluetooth adapters are absent or unconfigured by default, significantly reducing the attack surface. While processing maliciously crafted frames can crash the kernel and trigger a denial of service, an attacker cannot exploit this flaw remotely over a standard IP network.
