Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64403)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: 5.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds read in l2cap_get_conf_opt() when parsing L2CAP configuration options. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted Bluetooth L2CAP packet to cause a denial of service.
The read occurs before the malformed option is rejected, and up to 4 bytes may be read past the end of the buffer.
