CVE-2026-80759

Bluetooth: hci_aml: validate firmware segment lengths

Published Sep 4, 2026 CVSS n/a EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: hci_aml: validate firmware segment lengths

aml_download_firmware() reads two lengths from the firmware header and
uses them to build pointers before checking that the header and segment
data are present. A truncated or inconsistent firmware image can make
the driver read past firmware->data while constructing TCI commands.

Reject images shorter than the header and ensure that the ICCM and DCCM
ranges fit within the loaded firmware before downloading either segment.
