@marcnewlin you might want to hear this...
Hello! I ended up stumbling across this vulnerability when my Nintendo Pro Controller stopped pairing to my Linux laptop. Just for fun, I ended up fiddling around with bluetoothctl
, and then all of a sudden the controller was talking to the computer again.
The solution? Pair with the device, wait for it to establish a key, and then disconnect and reconnect to it again. I'm not sure where to put this, so it goes into the exploit repo (lol).
