Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel’s Bluetooth implementation handled L2CAP (Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol) packets with A2MP (Alternate MAC-PHY Manager Protocol) CID (Channel Identifier). This flaw allows a remote attacker in an adjacent range to crash the system, causing a denial of service or potentially executing arbitrary code on the system by sending a specially crafted L2CAP packet. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2020-10-08 16:32:24 UTC
A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel Bluetooth implementation handled L2CAP packets with A2MP CID. A remote attacker in adjacent range could use this flaw to crash the system causing denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code on the system by sending a specially crafted L2CAP packet.

Created kernel tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1888439]

Name: Andy Nguyen (Google), Intel

Comment 12 Dave Baker 2020-10-15 17:17:31 UTC
Statement:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 is affected starting with the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4 GA kernel version 3.10.0-693 onward.

For Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, while the cluster nodes may be running an underlying kernel that's affected by this flaw present, both virtual and physical hosts in a production environment will generally have the mitigation already in place of having Bluetooth hardware either not present, or not enabled.

If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 36 Eric Christensen 2020-10-19 13:17:18 UTC
Mitigation:

To mitigate these vulnerabilities on the operating system level, disable the Bluetooth functionality via blocklisting kernel modules in the Linux kernel. The kernel modules can be prevented from being loaded by using system-wide modprobe rules. Instructions on how to disable Bluetooth modules are available on the Customer Portal at https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2682931.

Alternatively, Bluetooth can be disabled within the hardware or at BIOS level which will also provide an effective mitigation as the kernel will not be able to detect that Bluetooth hardware is present on the system.
