Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in dannymcc Bluehood up to 0.7.0. It has been rated as critical. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component API Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a improper authentication vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-287. When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Bluehood monitors local bluetooth activity. Prior to version 0.7.1, when auth_enabled is set in Bluehood, only the HTML page handlers enforced session validation. The /api/* handlers (settings, devices, groups, per-device endpoints including /api/device/{mac}/notes) called no auth check at all. A network attacker reachable on the dashboard port could read Bluetooth tracking data and modify application state — including the heartbeat URL, prune retention, device groups, and per-device notes — without a session cookie. This issue has been patched in version 0.7.1.

The advisory is shared at github.com. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2026-49994 since 06/02/2026. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available.

Upgrading to version 0.7.1 eliminates this vulnerability.
