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

Bluetooth: btusb: clamp SCO altsetting table indices

btusb_work() maps the number of active SCO links to USB alternate
settings through a three-entry lookup table when CVSD traffic uses
transparent voice settings. The lookup currently indexes alts[] with
data->sco_num - 1 without first constraining sco_num to the number of
available table entries.

While the table only defines alternate settings for up to three SCO
links, data->sco_num comes from hci_conn_num() and is used directly.
Cap the lookup to the last table entry before indexing it so the
driver keeps selecting the highest supported alternate setting without
reading past alts[].
