UBUNTU-CVE-2026-31512: High severity ubuntu/linux-aws vulnerability

Q: What access does an attacker need to trigger this issue?

The CVSS vector indicates adjacent-network attack access with no privileges or user interaction required. The vulnerable path is in Bluetooth L2CAP Enhanced Credit Based Flow Control data handling.

Q: What is the likely impact?

The stated impact is availability only: a malformed PDU shorter than two bytes can cause an out-of-bounds read while the kernel reads the SDU length. The provided vector reports no confidentiality or integrity impact.

Q: Which Ubuntu kernel packages are listed as affected?

The listed software includes ubuntu/linux, ubuntu/linux-aws, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, ubuntu/linux-fips, ubuntu/linux-aws-fips, ubuntu/linux-azure-fips, and ubuntu/linux-gcp-fips.

Published Apr 22, 2026

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: L2CAP: Validate PDU length before reading SDU length in l2capecreddatarcv() l2capecreddatarcv() reads the SDU length field from skb->data using getunalignedle16() without first verifying that skb contains at least L2CAPSDULENSIZE (2) bytes. When skb->len is less than 2, this reads past the valid data in the skb. The ERTM reassembly path correctly calls pskbmaypull() before reading the SDU length (l2capreassemblesdu, L2CAPSARSTART case). Apply the same validation to the Enhanced Credit Based Flow Control data path.

Frequently Asked Questions

What access does an attacker need to trigger this issue?

The CVSS vector indicates adjacent-network attack access with no privileges or user interaction required. The vulnerable path is in Bluetooth L2CAP Enhanced Credit Based Flow Control data handling.

What is the likely impact?

The stated impact is availability only: a malformed PDU shorter than two bytes can cause an out-of-bounds read while the kernel reads the SDU length. The provided vector reports no confidentiality or integrity impact.

Which Ubuntu kernel packages are listed as affected?

The listed software includes ubuntu/linux, ubuntu/linux-aws, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, ubuntu/linux-fips, ubuntu/linux-aws-fips, ubuntu/linux-azure-fips, and ubuntu/linux-gcp-fips.
