==== 2018 ==== In July 2018, Lior Neumann and [[Eli Biham]], researchers at the Technion β Israel Institute of Technology identified a security vulnerability in the latest Bluetooth pairing procedures: Secure Simple Pairing and LE Secure Connections.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2018/07/24/bluetooth-hack-warning-for-iphone-android-and-windows|title=Update Your iPhones And Androids Now If You Don't Want Your Bluetooth Hacked|website=Forbes|date=24 July 2019|access-date=26 September 2019|archive-date=26 September 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190926093726/https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2018/07/24/bluetooth-hack-warning-for-iphone-android-and-windows|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|chapter-url=https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/1043|first1=Lior|last1=Neumann|first2=Eli|last2=Biham|chapter=Breaking the Bluetooth Pairing β the Fixed Coordinate Invalid Curve Attack |title=Selected Areas in Cryptography β SAC 2019|series=Lecture Notes in Computer Science|year=2020|volume=11959|pages=250β273|publisher=Technion β Israel Institute of Technology|doi=10.1007/978-3-030-38471-5_11|isbn=978-3-030-38470-8|s2cid=51757249|access-date=26 September 2019|archive-date=18 September 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190918215324/https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/1043|url-status=live|issn=0302-9743}}</ref> Also, in October 2018, Karim Lounis, a network security researcher at Queen's University, identified a security vulnerability, called CDV (Connection Dumping Vulnerability), on various Bluetooth devices that allows an attacker to tear down an existing Bluetooth connection and cause the deauthentication and disconnection of the involved devices. The researcher demonstrated the attack on various devices of different categories and from different manufacturers.<ref>{{cite book|chapter-url=https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-12143-3_16|first1=Karim|last1=Lounis|first2=Mohammad|last2=Zulkernine|chapter=Connection Dumping Vulnerability Affecting Bluetooth Availability|title=13th International Conference on Risks and Security of Internet and Systems β CRiSIS 2018|series=Lecture Notes in Computer Science|year=2019|volume=11391|pages=188β204|publisher=Springer|doi=10.1007/978-3-030-12143-3_16|isbn=978-3-030-12142-6|s2cid=59248863|access-date=30 August 2021|archive-date=30 August 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210830005951/https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-12143-3_16|url-status=live}}</ref>
