Study on Man-in-the-Middle Attacks Abusing Power-Saving Mode and Authentication Vulnerabilities in Bluetooth

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) With increasing Bluetooth device demand, various devices support power-saving modes. We analyzed vulnerabilities in devices' power-saving states and proposed device-hijack attacks abusing sleep mode. Our prior attacks abuse sleep mode to hijack Bluetooth sessions between the victim's master and slave devices, and control the master through hijacked sessions. However, the prior attacks cannot establish sessions with the slave during or after the slave is in sleep mode. We address this limitation by abusing previously unknown Bluetooth authentication vulnerabilities and extend the prior attacks into man-in-the-middle attacks. Furthermore, we evaluate the attacks against commercial Bluetooth devices and demonstrate their impacts.
