Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 7.7% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 94.6% of all records.
- Someone on the same network segment can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: bluez (Alpine:v3.3) 5.36-r1; bluez (Alpine:v3.4) 5.40-r1; bluez (Alpine:v3.5) 5.42-r1.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to bluez (Alpine:v3.3) 5.36-r1; bluez (Alpine:v3.4) 5.40-r1; bluez (Alpine:v3.5) 5.42-r1 or later.
