Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: hci_conn: Fix UAF in hci_enhanced_setup_sync This checks if the ACL connection remains valid as it could be destroyed
while hci_enhanced_setup_sync is pending on cmd_sync leading to the

Michael Randrianantenaina discovered that the Bluetooth driver in the Linux Kernel contained an improper access control vulnerability. A nearby attacker could use this to connect a rougue device and possibly execute arbitrary code. Attila Szász discovered that the HFS+ file system implementation in the Linux Kernel contained a heap overflow vulnerability. An attacker could use a specially crafted file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
