Technical details
A race condition was identified in the net/bluetooth device driver within the conn_info_{min,max}_age_set() functions. The vulnerability stems from improper synchronization when accessing shared resources, which can trigger an integer overflow (CWE-190). An attacker with high privileges and adjacent network access could exploit this during specific user interactions to cause a denial of service or compromise data integrity. Patches have been released for various Linux distributions, including Debian 10 (buster) in versions 4.19.316-1 and 5.10.216-1~deb10u1.
