CVE-2018-10910
A bug in Bluez may allow for the Bluetooth Discoverable state being set to on when no Bluetooth agent is registered with the system.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.46%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
A bug in Bluez may allow for the Bluetooth Discoverable state being set to on when no Bluetooth agent is registered with the system. This situation could lead to the unauthorized pairing of certain Bluetooth devices without any form of authentication. Versions before bluez 5.51 are vulnerable.
