Une faille critique expose des millions dâutilisateurs d'Ă©couteurs Bluetooth
Ils sont devenus nos (indispensables) compagnons discrets. Casques comme écouteurs Bluetooth nous promettent confort, mobilité et intimité. Mais une vulnérabilité majeure, récemment révélée par des chercheurs en cybersécurité, remet en cause cette illusion.
BaptisĂ©e WhisperPair, elle permettrait Ă un attaquant proche de vous de prendre le contrĂŽle dâun appareil, dâactiver son microphone ou de suivre son utilisateur, sans interaction ni alerte.
Le problĂšme ne vient pas du tĂ©lĂ©phone, mais des accessoires eux-mĂȘmes.
Une faille silencieuse, révélatrice des fragilités de nos objets connectés. Entre commodité et vie privée
