<p>A spoofing vulnerability exists in Microsoft's implementation of the Bluetooth stack. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could perform a <a href="https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/security/dn848375.aspx#MiTM">man-in-the-middle attack</a> and force a user's computer to unknowingly route traffic through the attacker's computer. The attacker can then monitor and read the traffic before sending it on to the intended recipient.</p> <p>To exploit the vulnerability, the attacker needs to be within the physical proximity of the targeted user, and the user's computer needs to have Bluetooth enabled. The attacker can then initiate a Bluetooth connection to the target computer without the user's knowledge.</p> <p>The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Windows handles Bluetooth requests.</p>
