CWE-125  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

There is no fixed version for bluez/bluez.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read in the parse_media_element and parse_media_folder functions when processing GetFolderItems responses in the AVRCP profile. An attacker can cause the bluetoothd daemon to crash or expose limited heap memory contents by sending specially crafted Bluetooth packets from a malicious device within radio range and convincing a user to pair with it.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by disabling the AVRCP Bluetooth profile if not needed, restricting Bluetooth pairing to trusted devices only, or disabling the Bluetooth subsystem entirely if it is not required.
