Status: ModifiedMedium (6.5)—
Severity6.5Medium · CVSS 3.0
Exploitation probability0.68 %higher than 52% of CVEs
Active exploitationNonot in the CISA catalog
Public exploitNot knownno public code found

In smp_process_keypress_notification of smp_act.cc, there is a possible out of bounds read due to an incorrect bounds check. This could lead to remote information disclosure over Bluetooth with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
