Linux Kernel Bluetooth l2cap_core.c l2cap_reassemble_sdu use after free
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.4% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 73% of all records.
- Someone on the same network segment can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: bpftool (AlmaLinux:8) 4.18.0-477.10.1.el8_8; kernel (AlmaLinux:8) 4.18.0-477.10.1.el8_8; kernel-abi-stablelists (AlmaLinux:8) 4.18.0-477.10.1.el8_8.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to bpftool (AlmaLinux:8) 4.18.0-477.10.1.el8_8; kernel (AlmaLinux:8) 4.18.0-477.10.1.el8_8; kernel-abi-stablelists (AlmaLinux:8) 4.18.0-477.10.1.el8_8 or later.
