17
FAUCET Score

CVE-2025-37792 is a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth btrtl driver, specifically affecting Debian and Linux kernel products. The flaw arises from incorrect error handling in the btrtl_initialize() function when a zero-length file is loaded, leading to a subsequent NULL pointer dereference. This vulnerability is rated Medium severity (CVSS 5.5) with a vector of AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H, indicating it requires local access and low privileges, has low attack complexity, and could lead to a denial of service. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, and no public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) is available. Despite this, the vulnerability has garnered some community attention and media coverage, as indicated by two mentions and two articles.
