CVE-2022-31461Known exploitationPublic exploit

Passcode deactivation via unauthenticated Bluetooth reset message

Published Jun 2, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Authentication bypass in Owl Labs Meeting Owl 5.2.0.15 allows physically proximate attackers to disable its Bluetooth passcode. The Bluetooth command handler accepts a c11 JSON message with an empty passcode field and reset set to 1, then clears the passcode without authenticating the sender. Bluetooth Low Energy range is required; afterward, the standard companion app can change per-meeting settings such as Presenter Enhance and 360-degree Pano.
