1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9803)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the le_meta_ev_dump() function in tools/parser/hci.c. A local user can pass a specially crafted dump file, trigger a buffer overflow and crash application.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-8921)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to missing verification checks when handling consecutive SVC_ATTR_REQ requests within the service_attr_req() function in sdpd-request.c in bluetoothd . A remote attacker on the local network can send specially crafted CSTATE data to the system and trick the server into returning more bytes than the buffer actually holds, resulting in leaking arbitrary heap data.
