Description Andrej Nemec 2019-01-03 11:28:24 UTC 
A flaw was found in the Linux kernels implementation of Logical link control and adaptation protocol (L2CAP), part of the bluetooth stack in the  l2cap_parse_conf_rsp, l2cap_parse_conf_req functions.

An attacker with physical access within the range of standard bluetooth transmission can create a specially crafted packet.  The response to this specially crafted packet can contain part of the kernel stack which can be used in a further attack.

Upstream patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/20190110062833.GA15047@kroah.com/

Oss-security post:
https://seclists.org/oss-sec/2019/q1/58

Mitigation:

- Disabling the bluetooth hardware in the bios.
- Prevent loading of the bluetooth kernel modules.
- Disable the bluetooth connection by putting the system in "airport" mode.
