Bluetooth Vulnerability in Motorola PEBL U6 and V600 Devices

CVE-2006-1367

Summary

The Bluetooth connection flaw in specific Motorola devices including the PEBL U6 and V600 allows unauthorized access to sensitive information. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability by connecting to the headset audio gateway service without requiring the user to pair their device. Through a method known as the 'Blueline' attack, a user can be tricked into granting access, leading to potential exposure of phonebook entries and saved SMS messages. The attack is facilitated by a GUI misrepresentation issue that allows attackers to substitute default messages with their own, further increasing the risk of exploitation.
