Improper input validation in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-43134

Vulnerability identifier: #VU130608

CSH Severity: Low

CVSS v4: 5.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43134

CWE-ID: CWE-20

Exploitation vector: Adjecent network

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass an encryption key size check.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the L2CAP LE connection request handling when processing L2CAP_LE_CONN_REQ packets. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted L2CAP_LE_CONN_REQ packet to bypass an encryption key size check.
