Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access of Resource Using Incompatible Type ('Type Confusion') through the RegisterProfile process. An attacker can execute arbitrary code as root or cause a crash of the bluetoothd process by supplying a crafted nested ServiceRecord that corrupts the SDP XML parser stack, resulting in type confusion where scalar union data is misinterpreted as a sequence pointer.
