By Waqas Another day, another Bluetooth vulnerability impacting billions of devices worldwide! This is a post from HackRead.com Read the original post: Bluetooth Vulnerability Enables Keystroke Injection on Android, Linux, macOS, iOS

Bluetooth HID Hosts in BlueZ may permit an unauthenticated Peripheral role HID Device to initiate and establish an encrypted connection, and accept HID keyboard reports, potentially permitting injection of HID messages when no user interaction has occurred in the Central role to authorize such access. An example affected package is bluez 5.64-0ubuntu1 in Ubuntu 22.04LTS. NOTE: in some cases, a CVE-2020-0556 mitigation would have already addressed this Bluetooth HID Hosts issue.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6540-1 - It was discovered that BlueZ did not properly restrict non-bonded devices from injecting HID events into the input subsystem. This could allow a physically proximate attacker to inject keystrokes and execute arbitrary commands whilst the device is discoverable.

A critical Bluetooth security flaw could be exploited by threat actors to take control of Android, Linux, macOS and iOS devices. Tracked as CVE-2023-45866, the issue relates to a case of authentication bypass that enables attackers to connect to susceptible devices and inject keystrokes to achieve code execution as the victim. "Multiple Bluetooth stacks have authentication bypass

In parse_gap_data of utils.cc, there is a possible out of bounds read due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local information disclosure with User execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

Apple Security Advisory 10-25-2023-4 - macOS Sonoma 14.1 addresses bypass, code execution, spoofing, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6452-1 - It was discovered that Vim could be made to divide by zero. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 23.04. It was discovered that Vim did not properly manage memory. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Vim contained an arithmetic overflow. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 23.04, and Ubuntu 23.10.

A logic issue was addressed with improved state management. This issue is fixed in macOS Sonoma 14.1. An attacker with knowledge of a standard user's credentials can unlock another standard user's locked screen on the same Mac.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6451-1 - It was discovered that ncurses could be made to read out of bounds. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
