bluez-hcidump Denial of Service

http://www.secuobs.com/news/05022006-bluetooth10.shtml

"ubuntu: Pierre Betouin discovered a Denial of Service
vulnerability in the handling of the L2CAP (Logical Link
Control and Adaptation Layer Protocol) layer. By sending a
specially crafted L2CAP packet through a wireless Bluetooth
connection, a remote attacker could crash hcidump.  Since
hcidump is mainly a debugging tool, the impact of this flaw is
very low."

The patch is here:
