Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Telink Semiconductor BLE SDK (affected version not known). It has been rated as critical. This issue affects some unknown functionality of the component Bluetooth Low Energy. The manipulation as part of a Crafted Packet leads to a buffer overflow vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-120. The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer, leading to a buffer overflow. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

The Bluetooth Low Energy Secure Manager Protocol (SMP) implementation on Telink Semiconductor BLE SDK versions before November 2019 for TLSR8x5x through 3.4.0, TLSR823x through 1.3.0, and TLSR826x through 3.3 devices accepts a pairing request with a key size greater than 16 bytes, allowing an attacker in radio range to cause a buffer overflow and denial of service (crash) via crafted packets.

The weakness was disclosed 02/12/2020. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2019-19196 since 11/21/2019. Attacking locally is a requirement. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not publicly available.

There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.
