Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: add more sanity checks to qdisc_pkt_len_init() One path takes care of SKB_GSO_DODGY, assuming
skb->len is bigger than hdr_len. virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() does not fully dissect TCP headers,
it only make sure it is at least 20 bytes. It is possible for an user to provide a malicious 'GSO' packet,
total length of 80 bytes. - 20 bytes of IPv4 header
- 60 bytes TCP header
- a small gso_size like 8 virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() would declare this packet as a normal
GSO packet, because it would see 40 bytes of payload,
bigger than gso_size. We need to make detect this case to not underflow
qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len.

Andy Nguyen discovered that the Bluetooth L2CAP implementation in the Linux kernel contained a type-confusion error. A physically proximate remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Andy Nguyen discovered that the Bluetooth A2MP implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize memory in some situations. A physically proximate remote attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.
