    CVE-2021-28136

    Published: 7 Sept 2021Last Modified: 7 Aug 2026

    Summary:

    Details: The Bluetooth Classic implementation in Espressif ESP-IDF 4.4 and earlier does not properly handle the reception of multiple LMP IO Capability Request packets during the pairing process, allowing attackers in radio range to trigger memory corruption (and consequently a crash) in ESP32 via a replayed (duplicated) LMP packet.
