Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-26558)
CWE-ID: CWE-254 - Security Features
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to an impersonation in the Passkey Entry protocol flaw. A remote attacker on the local network can perform a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack and impersonate the initiating device without any previous knowledge.
Note: This vulnerability affects the following specifications:
- BR/EDR Secure Simple Pairing in Bluetooth Core Specifications 2.1 through 5.2
- BR/EDR Secure Connections Pairing in Bluetooth Core Specifications 4.1 through 5.2
- LE Secure Connections Pairing in Bluetooth Core Specifications 4.2 through 5.2
2) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0129)
CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.
The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions. A remote authenticated attacker on the local network can bypass implemented security restrictions and enable information disclosure
3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3588)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the cli_feat_read_cb() function in src/gatt-database.c. A remote attacker on the local network can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
4) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-0204)
CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted files to the affected system, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
