CVE-2025-53477
NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Apache Nimble.
Missing validation of HCI connection complete or HCI command TX buffer could lead to NULL pointer dereference. This issue requires disabled asserts and broken or bogus Bluetooth controller and thus severity is considered low.
This issue affects Apache NimBLE: through 1.8.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.9.0, which fixes the issue.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.5
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.81%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 56
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact75 %
Vulnerabilidad de desreferencia de NULL en Nimble (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N) que causa DoS por A:H en CVSS. Aunque requiere condiciones especiales (asserts deshabilitados, controlador Bluetooth bogus), se mapea a T1190 por red sin autenticación. T1499.004 por crash/indisponibilidad.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
