Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sock: validate event length before filtering
is_filtered_packet() reads the event code from skb->data[0] without first
checking that the skb is nonempty. When an opcode filter is configured,
it also reads the command opcode at offsets 3 or 4 without checking that
a Command Complete or Command Status event is long enough.
hci_send_to_sock() invokes the filter before hci_event_packet() validates
the event header. A malformed event supplied by a controller or a vhci
device can therefore cause an out-of-bounds read.
Keep the unmasked event code for the opcode checks. The masked value is
needed for the 64-bit event bitmap, but using it to identify command events
aliases event codes above 0x3f. In particular, Synchronous Train Complete
(0x4f) was treated as Command Status (0x0f) even though its payload has no
opcode.
Reject actual command events that are too short for the field being
inspected. A truncated command event cannot match a configured opcode.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth subsystem. This vulnerability can lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) due to an out-of-bounds memory read. The issue occurs when the Host Controller Interface (HCI) socket implementation filters event packets without verifying that the packet buffer is large enough before inspecting header fields. A local attacker or a compromised Bluetooth controller can exploit this flaw by sending a truncated event packet, potentially causing a system crash.
Отчет
This vulnerability is rated as having a Moderate impact for Red Hat Enterprise Linux because exploitation requires local system privileges or communication with an attached hardware or virtual Bluetooth controller to trigger the denial of service. The out-of-bounds read leads to a kernel crash, but it cannot be exploited remotely over the network without hardware interaction or existing local access. In standard enterprise server environments, Bluetooth hardware and subsystems are typically absent or disabled, significantly limiting the exposure of typical installations.
