Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Write in the l2cap_chan_le_recv_seg process when segmentation is enabled and the selected RX pool has a user_data_size smaller than 2 bytes. An attacker can cause heap corruption or a fatal error by sending specially crafted Bluetooth L2CAP LE CoC packets that trigger a 2-byte out-of-bounds write during SDU reassembly.
