Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-2827-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'bluez' package(s) announced via the DLA-2827-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'bluez' package(s) announced via the DLA-2827-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Several vulnerabilities were discovered in BlueZ, the Linux Bluetooth protocol stack. An attacker could cause a denial-of-service (DoS) or leak information.

CVE-2019-8921

SDP infoleak, the vulnerability lies in the handling of a SVC_ATTR_REQ by the SDP implementation of BlueZ. By crafting a malicious CSTATE, it is possible to trick the server into returning more bytes than the buffer actually holds, resulting in leaking arbitrary heap data.

CVE-2019-8922

SDP Heap Overflow, this vulnerability lies in the SDP protocol handling of attribute requests as well. By requesting a huge number of attributes at the same time, an attacker can overflow the static buffer provided to hold the response.

CVE-2021-41229

sdp_cstate_alloc_buf allocates memory which will always be hung in the singly linked list of cstates and will not be freed. This will cause a memory leak over time. The data can be a very large object, which can be caused by an attacker continuously sending sdp packets and this may cause the service of the target device to crash.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 5.43-2+deb9u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your bluez packages.
