bluez vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Summary:

BlueZ could be made to run programs as an administrator if it connected to
a malicious Bluetooth device.

Software Description:
- bluez: Bluetooth tools and daemons

Details:

Lucas Leong discovered that BlueZ incorrectly handled the Phone Book Access
profile. If a user were tricked into connecting to a malicious Bluetooth
device, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute
arbitrary code.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
bluez 5.64-0ubuntu1.4
libbluetooth3 5.64-0ubuntu1.4

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
bluez 5.53-0ubuntu3.9
libbluetooth3 5.53-0ubuntu3.9

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
