CVE-2026-45835 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix null-ptr-deref in l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb() Add the same NULL guard already present in l2cap_sock_resume_cb() and l2cap_sock_ready_cb().
A null pointer dereference vulnerability has been identified in the Bluetooth L2CAP implementation of the Linux kernel. This issue arises in the 'l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb()' function, where a missing null check can lead to a dereference of a null pointer. The vulnerability has been addressed by adding a null guard, similar to those already present in the 'l2cap_sock_resume_cb()' and 'l2cap_sock_ready_cb()' functions.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been fixed. Instructions for downloading the patched version are available on the official Linux kernel website.
