Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
EUVDB-ID: #VU75163
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 1.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2002
CWE-ID:
CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper permissions check in the Bluetooth subsystem when handling ioctl system calls of HCI sockets. A local user can acquire a trusted socket, leading to unauthorized execution of management commands.
