Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (the affected version is unknown). It has been classified as critical. This affects the function RegisterProfile of the file sdp-xml.c of the component SDP XML Parser. The manipulation of the argument ServiceRecord with an unknown input leads to a type confusion vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-843. The product allocates or initializes a resource such as a pointer, object, or variable using one type, but it later accesses that resource using a type that is incompatible with the original type. This is going to have an impact on availability. The summary by CVE is:

BlueZ sdp-xml.c type confusion via RegisterProfile(ServiceRecord) can crash bluetoothd (local DoS): a crafted nested ServiceRecord can corrupt the SDP XML parser stack so scalar union data is treated as a sequence pointer, allowing a local caller to crash bluetoothd.

The advisory is shared at access.redhat.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2026-80185 since 08/25/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. An attack has to be approached locally. Technical details are known, but no exploit is available. The price for an exploit might be around USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 08/26/2026).

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