NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Apache NimBLE in LE Long Term Key Request event.
This requires disabled asserts (otherwise assert would trigger before NULL dereference) and bogus (or misbehaving) controller, thus severity is low.
This issue affects Apache NimBLE: through 1.9.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.10.0, which fixes the issue.
AnalysisAI
Denial-of-service in Apache NimBLE up to version 1.9.0 allows remote attackers to crash the BLE host by causing a NULL pointer dereference in the LE Long Term Key Request event handler. Exploitation requires the host to be built with assertions disabled and a bogus or misbehaving BLE controller. No active exploitation or public exploit code has been identified; the vendor rates severity as low.
