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


The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in the tlv_data_is_valid() advertising data parser in net/bluetooth/mgmt.c when processing a crafted MGMT_OP_ADD_ADVERTISING request. A local user can send a specially crafted advertising data field to disclose sensitive information.

The issue is triggered when a malformed field length byte appears at the end of the supplied buffer.
