Summary

A stack-based buffer overflow in vCard parsing on Alpine iLX-F511 devices allows remote code execution. The flaw results from lack of validation of user-supplied data before copying it to a fixed-length stack buffer. User interaction is required — the target must connect to a malicious Bluetooth device.

Risk Assessment

A network-adjacent attacker can execute code as root after luring the victim to connect to a malicious Bluetooth device. Risk applies to vehicles equipped with Alpine iLX-F511.

Recommendation

Apply the firmware update from Alpine. Until patched, avoid connecting to unknown Bluetooth devices.

Alpine iLX-F511 vCard Parsing Stack-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected Alpine iLX-F511 devices. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must connect to a malicious Bluetooth device. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of vCard data. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-29017.
