  - BlueZ Audio Profile AVRCP avrcp_parse_attribute_list Out-Of-Bounds Read Information Disclosure     Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to disclose sensitive information via     Bluetooth on affected installations of BlueZ. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability     in that the target must connect to a malicious device. The specific flaw exists within the handling of the     AVRCP protocol. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can     result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with     other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-20852.
