Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27349)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the handling of the AVRCP protocol. A remote attacker with physical proximity to device can send specially crafted Bluetooth packets to the affected system, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system.



2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-51589)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:N/VA:L/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 when handling AVRCP protocol within the parse_media_element() function. A remote attacker can trick the victim into connecting to a malicious device, trigger an out-of-bounds read and gain access to sensitive information.
