CVE-2026-90251CVE-2026-90251
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: MSFT: validate evt_prefix_len against the response length
read_supported_features() only checks that the response covers the fixed
part of struct msft_rp_read_supported_features, which is 11 bytes:
if (skb->len < sizeof(*rp)) {
bt_dev_err(hdev, "MSFT supported features length mismatch");
goto failed;
}
evt_prefix[] is a flexible array member and rp->evt_prefix_len is an
unvalidated u8 taken straight out of that response, so
msft->evt_prefix = kmemdup(rp->evt_prefix, rp->evt_prefix_len,
GFP_KERNEL);
copies up to 255 bytes from a reply that may have carried none of them.
What is copied is data the controller never sent, and it is then used to
match incoming vendor events in msft_vendor_evt().
This is not an out-of-bounds access. An skb data allocation always has
at least SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)) bytes past the
payload, which is more than the 255 byte maximum, so the r
