Unpatched devices are vulnerable under the following conditions:

  • Android devices are vulnerable whenever Bluetooth is enabled
  • Linux/BlueZ requires that Bluetooth is discoverable/connectable
  • iOS and macOS are vulnerable when Bluetooth is enabled and a Magic Keyboard has been paired with the phone or computer

Time to disable Bluetooth on all your old android phones!
