Linux Kernel Bluetooth CAPI Packet Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
The Linux kernel is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because the kernel fails to bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized buffer. An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with kernel-level privileges, facilitating the complete compromise of affected computers. Failed exploit attempts will result in denial-of-service conditions. Versions prior to 2.4.33.5 are vulnerable to this issue. |
