BlueZ A2DP Stack-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of BlueZ. An attacker must first obtain the ability to pair a malicious Bluetooth device with the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of the stream endpoints. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-29429.
AnalysisAI
Stack-based buffer overflow in the A2DP profile of the BlueZ Linux Bluetooth stack allows a network-adjacent attacker to run arbitrary code as root on a target once a malicious Bluetooth audio device has been paired with it. The flaw lies in stream endpoint (SEP) handling, where attacker-supplied capability strings are copied into fixed-size stack buffers without a length check (CWE-121), so oversized SEP data corrupts the stack in the privileged bluetoothd process. …
