Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-05-01 15:16 - Updated: 2026-06-17 10:48
Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: MGMT: validate LTK enc_size on load
Load Long Term Keys stores the user-provided enc_size and later uses
it to size fixed-size stack operations when replying to LE LTK
requests. An enc_size larger than the 16-byte key buffer can therefore
overflow the reply stack buffer.
Reject oversized enc_size values while validating the management LTK
record so invalid keys never reach the stored key state.
