Typically, users with malicious intent gain access to the device users' contact lists although all OBEX-addressable data that
is stored on the devices is vulnerable. During bluesnarfing attacks, users with malicious intent can obtain sensitive
information, such as the unique network identifier of a device. They might also send text messages, make calls, or create
false address book entries.
By default, on BlackBerry devices, the ability to exchange files with supported OBEX devices is turned off, which helps to
protect the devices against bluesnarfing attacks by preventing users with malicious intent from using the OBEX
implementation to access core BlackBerry device data.
Bluebugging
Bluebugging is a device-based threat that occurs when device manufacturers implement security mechanisms for
Bluetooth® technology improperly. Bluebugging also occurs when users with malicious intent use Bluetooth technology to
access phone commands on devices without notifying or alerting the authorized users. This vulnerability enables the users
with malicious intent to make calls, send and read text messages, access and add contacts to contact lists, eavesdrop on
phone conversations, and connect to the Internet, all without detection or authorization.
