CVE-2018-5383 kernel: Bluetooth implementations may not sufficiently validate elliptic curve parameters during Diffie-Hellman key exchange
Last modified: 2018-09-24 11:02:34 EDT
A vulnerability in Bluetooth pairing potentially allows an attacker with physical proximity (within 30 meters) to gain unauthorized access via an adjacent network, intercept traffic and send forged pairing messages between two vulnerable Bluetooth devices. This may result in information disclosure, elevation of privilege and/or denial of service.
