bluez vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 21.10
- Ubuntu 21.04
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in BlueZ.
Software Description:
- bluez: Bluetooth tools and daemons
Details:
It was discovered that BlueZ incorrectly handled the Discoverable status
when a device is powered down. This could result in devices being powered
up discoverable, contrary to expectations. This issue only affected Ubuntu
20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 21.04, and Ubuntu 21.10. (CVE-2021-3658)
It was discovered that BlueZ incorrectly handled certain memory operations.
A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause BlueZ to consume
resources, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2021-41229)
It was discovered that the BlueZ gatt server incorrectly handled
disconnects. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause
BlueZ to crash, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2021-43400)
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 21.10:
bluez 5.60-0ubuntu2.1
