What is CVE-2019-17061?
CVE-2019-17061 is a medium-severity memory corruption vulnerability in n/a, published on 10 Feb 2020. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
The Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) stack implementation on Cypress PSoC 4 through 3.62 devices does not properly restrict the BLE Link Layer header and executes certain memory contents upon receiving a packet with a Link Layer ID (LLID) equal to zero. This allows attackers within radio range to cause deadlocks, cause anomalous behavior in the BLE state machine, or trigger a buffer overflow via a crafted BLE Link Layer frame.
Weakness: CWE-120
Which versions are affected by CVE-2019-17061?
