It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-98296 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98296/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98296/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-98296","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98296/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-98296","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-98296","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98296","GHSA-hx9c-7jvw-48j5","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-98296"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel Bluetooth driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A missing bounds check in the Linux kernel's Intel PCIe Bluetooth driver allows buffer overflows, potentially leading to code execution or system crashes.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nBluetooth: btintel_pcie: validate TX skb length in send_sync\n\nbtintel_pcie_prepare_tx() copies skb-\u003elen bytes into a fixed\nBTINTEL_PCIE_BUFFER_SIZE (4096) DMA slot via an unchecked memcpy.\nOversized packets are currently rejected only in\nbtintel_pcie_send_frame(); any future caller of\nbtintel_pcie_send_sync() would silently overflow the DMA buffer.\n\nAdd the bounds check in btintel_pcie_send_sync() itself, right\nbefore skb_push() and the DMA copy.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: validate TX skb length in send_sync","id":"CVE-2026-98296","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Bluetooth: hci_core: Fix queuing tx_work after workqueue is drained","id":"CVE-2026-98297"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Bluetooth: coredump: Quiesce dump work on unregister","id":"CVE-2026-98295"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-10-06","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A missing bounds check in the Linux kernel's Intel PCIe Bluetooth driver allows buffer overflows, potentially leading to code execution or system crashes.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98296/"}
