VAR-202109-0564
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-01-30 20:47The Bluetooth Classic implementation in Espressif ESP-IDF 4.4 and earlier does not properly handle the reception of multiple LMP IO Capability Request packets during the pairing process, allowing attackers in radio range to trigger memory corruption (and consequently a crash) in ESP32 via a replayed (duplicated) LMP packet. Espressif ESP-IDF Exists in an out-of-bounds write vulnerability.Service operation interruption (DoS) It may be in a state. Pillow is a Python-based image processing library. There is currently no information about this vulnerability, please feel free to follow CNNVD or manufacturer announcements. Espressif ESP-IDF is a development framework for the Internet of Things developed by Espressif. There is a buffer error vulnerability in Espressif ESP-IDF, which originates from the Bluetooth classic implementation in Espressif ESP-IDF 4.4 and earlier versions

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
