Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: fix TX descriptor bounds check

Published Oct 26, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: fix TX descriptor bounds check

btintel_pcie_prepare_tx() uses tfd_index to access the TFD and data
buffer arrays before the index is advanced modulo txq->count. An index
equal to txq->count is one past the end of both arrays, so reject it in
the bounds check.
