The attack methodology determines the Passkey value one bit at a time.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":4.2},"cwes":["CWE-287"],"references":["https://kb.cert.org/vuls/id/799380","https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/06/msg00019.html","https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/06/msg00020.html","https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/06/msg00022.html","https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/NSS6CTGE4UGTJLCOZOASDR3T3SLL6QJZ/"],"products":["bluetooth:bluetooth_core_specification","debian:debian_linux","fedoraproject:fedora","intel:ac_1550_firmware","intel:ac_3165_firmware","intel:ac_3168_firmware","intel:ac_7265_firmware","intel:ac_8260_firmware","intel:ac_8265_firmware","intel:ac_9260_firmware","intel:ac_9461_firmware","intel:ac_9462_firmware","intel:ac_9560_firmware","intel:ax1650_firmware","intel:ax1675_firmware","intel:ax200_firmware","intel:ax201_firmware","intel:ax210_firmware","linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:18:09.669877188+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2020-26558","score":0.00872,"percentile":0.58893,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
