Linux as a BT conversation snooper

Filed in archive Hacks by Rom Feria on December 31, 2007

There is no denying the fact that open source software are the prime tools for hacking (and cracking). In this example, see how you can use Linux to eavesdrop on a conversation between someone using a Bluetooth headset and another person.



I wonder how you can make this more secure considering that almost all Bluetooth hands-freelinks headsets use a default PIN.

I have a Jabra headset but I rarely use it anymore since I look like a dork whenever I use one. Besides, my wife hates it! :)

How about you? DO you have a bluetooth headset? Have you been assimilated by the Borg? ha-ha-ha
