Numeric Comparison Pairing on Linux

Open newcomertv opened this issue 7 months ago • 0 comments

Feature Description

In order to avoid MITM attacks numeric comparison pairing is available when both devices provide a display and a Yes/No input.

Numeric comparison works through some special magic with the respective public and private keys that should end up being the same result.

I couldn't find any more details on how it works on BlueZ, I know that on iOS and Android it's a system PopUp, on linux I didn't receive any Pop Up though so I'm guessing it's on the dbus?
