Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Microsoft Windows, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the Bluetooth stack when processing service description requests. This can be exploited by rapidly sending a large number of specially crafted SDP (Service Discovery Protocol) packets to a vulnerable system.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code, but requires that Bluetooth is enabled.
