Vulnerability Details

This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of Microsoft Windows. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must connect a malicious Bluetooth device.

The specific flaw exists within the processing of AVDTP commands.
