Bluetooth peer spoofing by proximate attackers
Published May 11, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Spoofing in the Microsoft Bluetooth Driver in affected Windows releases allows physically proximate attackers to impersonate a Bluetooth peer. Microsoft has not published the faulty driver operation or the Bluetooth input that triggers the identity confusion. Exploitation requires Bluetooth proximity but no authentication or user interaction; the record does not identify the impersonated identity or exposed actions.
