NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream connman package and not the connman package as distributed by Ubuntu.

ConnMan before 0.85 does not ensure that netlink messages originate from the kernel, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and cause a denial of service via a crafted netlink message.
