Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53071)
CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to corrupt kernel memory.
The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in l2cap_ecred_reconf_rsp in the L2CAP subsystem when processing a crafted L2CAP ECRED reconfiguration response from a remote BLE device. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted L2CAP ECRED reconfiguration response to corrupt kernel memory.
Exploitation requires concurrent channel list iteration by another thread.
Remediation
