Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-63975)
CWE-ID: CWE-670 - Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation
CVSSv4: 7.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of channel deletion during list iteration in l2cap_ecred_conn_rsp in the Bluetooth L2CAP subsystem when processing a crafted L2CAP credit-based connection response with an already-assigned destination CID. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted Bluetooth packet to cause a denial of service.
The issue occurs when a duplicate destination CID is received for an L2CAP extended credit based connection response.
