NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-docs package and not the kernel-docs package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel through 6.2.8, net/bluetooth/hci_sync.c allows out-of-bounds access because amp_init1[] and amp_init2[] are supposed to have an intentionally invalid element, but do not.
