Crypto cockup lets middle-people spy on connections after snooping on device pairing

With a bunch of security fixes released and more on the way, details have been made public of a Bluetooth bug that potentially allows miscreants to commandeer nearby devices. This Carnegie-Mellon CERT vulnerability advisory on Monday laid out the cryptographic flaw: firmware or operating system drivers skip a vital check during a Diffie-Hellman key exchange between devices. The impact: a nearby eavesdropper could “intercept and decrypt and/or forge and inject device messages” carried over Bl...
