No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

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

Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix accepting multiple L2CAP_ECRED_CONN_REQ

Currently the code attempts to accept requests regardless of the command identifier which may cause multiple requests to be marked as pending (FLAG_DEFER_SETUP) which can cause more than L2CAP_ECRED_MAX_CID(5) to be allocated in l2cap_ecred_rsp_defer causing an overflow.

The spec is quite clear that the same identifier shall not be used on subsequent requests:

'Within each signaling channel a different Identifier shall be used for each successive request or indication.' https://www.bluetooth.com/wp-content/uploads/Files/Specification/HTML/Core-62/out/en/host/logical-link-control-and-adaptation-protocol-specification.html#UUID-32a25a06-4aa4-c6c7-77c5-dcfe3682355d

So this attempts to check if there are any channels pending with the same identifier and rejects if any are found.
