CVE-2026-98296Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: validate TX skb length in send_sync

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects Linux. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: validate TX skb length in send_sync btintel_pcie_prepare_tx() copies skb->len bytes into a fixed BTINTEL_PCIE_BUFFER_SIZE (4096) DMA slot via an unchecked memcpy. Oversized packets are currently rejected only in btintel_pcie_send_frame(); any future caller of btintel_pcie_send_sync() would silently overflow the DMA buffer. Add the bounds check in btintel_pcie_send_sync() itself, right before skb_push() and the DMA copy.
