Microsoft has released new security updates for Windows 10 to address a security flaw related to Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices.<\/p>\n
The company revealed in an advisory<\/strong><\/a> that it has disabled the pairing of some BLE devices due to a security vulnerability related to FIDO two-factor authentication keys.<\/p>\n “Microsoft is aware of an issue that affects the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) version of FIDO Security Keys,” the company said.<\/p>\n “Due to a misconfiguration in the Bluetooth pairing protocols, it is possible for an attacker who is physically close to a user at the moment he\/she uses the security key to communicate with the security key, or communicate with the device to which the key is paired.”<\/p>\n This vulnerability allows attackers to intercept pairing codes and connect to the target device via Bluetooth without authorisation.<\/p>\n Microsoft said it recommended customers install the latest June security updates for Windows 10, although this may affect the functionality of some BLE devices.<\/p>\n Microsoft has released new security updates for Windows 10 to address a security flaw related to Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":341028,"featured_media":133428,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_facebook_post_id":"","_sma_instagram_post_id":"","_sma_threads_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[1027,15511,26970],"class_list":["post-310129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-security","tag-bluetooth","tag-security-flaw","tag-windows-10"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310129"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/341028"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=310129"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310129\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":310141,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310129\/revisions\/310141"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/133428"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=310129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=310129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=310129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Now read: Telegram traces massive cyber attack to China<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
