kernel: Bluetooth: SMP: force responder MITM requirements before building the pairing response

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth Security Manager Protocol SMP. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability during the Bluetooth pairing process by manipulating authentication requirements. This could lead to the selection of a weaker pairing method than intended, potentially...

kernel: Linux kernel Bluetooth RFCOMM: Denial of Service via use-after-free in set_termios

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth RFCOMM subsystem. A race condition in the rfcommttysettermios function allows a session to be freed while it is still actively in use. This use-after-free UAF vulnerability can be exploited by a local attacker. Successful exploitation leads to a...

kernel: Bluetooth: serialize accept_q access

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth subsystem. A race condition exists in the handling of the acceptq within the btsockpoll function due to a lack of synchronization. This could allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service by manipulating socket operations during child teardow...

kernel: Bluetooth: btusb: revert use of devm_kzalloc in btusb

A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth USB driver. The btusb driver binds to multiple USB interfaces INTF, ISOC, DIAG but allocates its data structure with devmkzalloc tied to a single interface. When that interface is released, the memory is freed while other interfaces...

kernel: Bluetooth: RFCOMM: validate skb length in MCC handlers

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth RFCOMM Radio Frequency Communication subsystem. A malicious remote device could exploit this vulnerability by sending specially crafted, truncated Multiplexing Control Channel MCC frames. This lack of proper validation of incoming data length befor...

kernel: Bluetooth: HIDP: fix missing length checks in hidp_input_report()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth Human Interface Device Protocol HIDP. A remote attacker, by sending specially crafted truncated packets from a paired Bluetooth device, could trigger an out-of-bounds read in the hidpinputreport function. This vulnerability may lead to unintended...

kernel: Bluetooth: RFCOMM: hold listener socket in rfcomm_connect_ind()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth RFCOMM Radio Frequency Communication subsystem. A race condition in the rfcommconnectind function, specifically during the handling of listener sockets, can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a deni...

kernel: Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix potential user-after-free

A use-after-free flaw was identified in the Linux kernel’s Bluetooth L2CAP implementation. In certain conditions, when allocating a socket buffer via allocskb, the kernel may release and later reacquire the channel lock; if the channel is disconnected in the meantime, a subsequent reference to th...

kernel: Linux kernel Bluetooth: Denial of Service via race condition in hidp_session_thread

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth subsystem. A race condition in the hidpsessionthread can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability. This occurs when a timer is active while its deletion function is called, causing memory to be accessed after it has been freed. A local attacker could...

An update for kernel-rt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System CVSS base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from...

Some cheap smart glasses are a security disaster

Apart from the privacy concerns around smart glasses, researchers have found that some cheap brands come with barely any security at all. ABC Australia reports that researchers from NSB Cyber and Abstract Shield tested two inexpensive pairs, costing A$60 and A$110 around US$42 and US$78, and foun...
