NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bluez-hid2hci package and not the bluez-hid2hci package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

In BlueZ before 5.55, a double free was found in the gatttool disconnect_cb() routine from shared/att.c. A remote attacker could potentially cause a denial of service or code execution, during service discovery, due to a redundant disconnect MGMT event.
