CVE-2026-63976

8.8 · HIGH
Published Jul 19, 2026 EPSS 0.46% (38th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-63976 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 19, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: l2cap: clear chan->ident on ECRED reconfiguration success

l2cap_ecred_reconf_rsp() returns early on success without clearing

chan->ident. Every other L2CAP response handler (l2cap_ecred_conn_rsp,

l2cap_le_connect_rsp, l2cap_config_rsp) clears chan->ident after a

successful transaction to prevent the channel from matching subsequent

responses with the recycled ident value.

A remote attacker that completed a reconfiguration as the peer can

replay a failure response with the stale ident, causing the kernel to

match and destroy the already-established channel via

l2cap_chan_del(chan, ECONNRESET).

Clear chan->ident for all matching channels on success, and harden the

failure path by using l2cap_chan_hold_unless_zero() consistent with

other L2CAP handlers (l2cap_le_command_rej, __l2cap_get_chan_by_ident).

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
