Bluetooth vulnerabilities

Jun 14, 2005 0 Replies

Reading about the possible attacks that can be performed against Bluetooth devices, I have 2 questions.


  1. Why some Bluetooth phones are more vulnerables than others, not considering the PIN length? Is is because Bluetooth is weakly implemented in those phones?


  1. If a Windows computer is equiped with Bluetooth and considering all the possibles attacks that can be done, what is the worst damage that can actually be done? Gaining access to Outlook's address book? I'm not talking about hypothetical damages, only about what can currently be performed by attackers.



Thanks.
