Bug ID: 408654
Summary: Denied pairing request - phone appears in the tray
anyway
Product: Bluedevil
Version: 5.16.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: system tray
Assignee: now...@gmail.com
Reporter: raitarohik...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
A notification popped up in the right corner of the screen
A Bluetooth notification asking if this is the correct pin
To my surprise it happened not once, but twice
And I clicked incorrect pin as many times
And yet the bloody iPhone from some stranger
Kept bugging my Bluetooth connection
And then in my curiosity I checked my system tray
And there it was that iPhone, connected, to my dismay
I thought perhaps some bad poem might brighten up the mood a bit. Yes some
random iPhone requested a pairing to my pc and I refused, twice. Still, the
phone appeared connected in the system tray widget for some reason. I
disconnected it manually from there. Not sure what, how or why this happened,
nor if it is an attack vector.
On my android phone the notification did not pop up twice, nor did the phone
manage to connect. It seems the phone shortly appears in the tray as well but
gives an error on the phone and disappears from the tray. Not sure if the
iPhone person saw an error though.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have bluetooth visibility to Always Visible
2. Have some phone request a pairing
3. Click pin is incorrect in the notification
4. Check the tray
OBSERVED RESULT
The phone appears to be connected in the tray.
EXPECTED RESULT
If the pairing is denied, I expect it to not connect and not show up as
connected.
