The UUID is often broadcast in the clear which, Lin said, leaves the device open to a fingerprinting attack. At the very least this would allow an attacker to determine what type of Bluetooth devices are present by the UUID\u2019s being broadcast.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut in some cases in which no encryption is involved or encryption is used improperly between mobile apps and devices, the attacker would be able to \u2018listen in\u2019 on your conversation and collect that data,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurekalert.org\/pub_releases\/2019-11\/osu-dfc111419.php\">Lin explained<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily the issue is easily fixed, the researcher believes, and the team developed a set of recommendations &nbsp;and turned over its findings to the Bluetooth Special Interest Group and created an automated tool to evaluate all of the Bluetooth Low Energy apps in the Google Play Store \u2013 18,166 at the time of their research, they said.<\/p>\n<p>That the problem likely is solvable is a good thing. Lin and his team took a Bluetooth \u201csniffer\u201d on a tour of the university\u2019s 1.28 square-mile campus and found 5,800 Bluetooth devices operating, 94 percent of which they were able to fingerprint and &nbsp;7.4 percent \u2013 were vulnerable to unauthorized access or eavesdropping attacks. Additionally, it was revealed that the Bluetooth signals emitted by these devices extended much farther than originally thought.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe typical understanding is that Bluetooth Low Energy devices have signals that can only travel up to 100 meters,\u201d he said. \u201cBut we found that with a simple receiver adapter and amplifier, the signal can be \u2018sniffed\u2019 (or electronically found) much farther \u2013 up to 1,000 meters away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>An added finding took place while the Ohio State team examined the apps in the Google Play Store. It found 1,434 vulnerable apps that allow unauthorized access, although details on how this access was allowed was not included in the report.<\/p>\n<p>Lin did express his surprise as the number found and said it did not bode well for people maintaining their privacy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<section class=\"post-tags\">\n<h2>Topics:<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmagazine.com\/tag\/iot\/\"
