CWE-863  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.3 bluez-deprecated to version 5.55-150300.3.14.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bluez-deprecated package and not the bluez-deprecated package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.3 relevant fixed versions and status.

bluetoothd from bluez incorrectly saves adapters' Discoverable status when a device is powered down, and restores it when powered up. If a device is powered down while discoverable, it will be discoverable when powered on again. This could lead to inadvertent exposure of the bluetooth stack to physically nearby attackers.
