Description Oleg Sushchenko 2026-08-18 13:04:12 UTC
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in BlueZ in the AVRCP profile 
implementation. The vulnerability exists in the parse_media_element() 
and parse_media_folder() functions in profiles/audio/avrcp.c, where 
insufficient validation of packet length fields in GetFolderItems 
responses allows a malicious Bluetooth device within range to cause 
an out-of-bounds memory read. This can result in a crash of the 
bluetoothd daemon (denial of service) and potentially expose 
sensitive heap memory contents.
