Vulnerability discussion

Bluetooth sharing allows users to wirelessly transmit files between Mac OS X and Bluetooth-enabled devices, including personally owned cell phones and tablets. A malicious user might introduce viruses or malware onto the system or extract sensitive files. Disabling Bluetooth Sharing mitigates this risk.

Check content

To check if Bluetooth Sharing is enabled, Open up System Preferences->Sharing and verify that 'Bluetooth Sharing' is not checked 'ON'. If it is 'ON', this is a finding.

Fix text

To disable Bluetooth Sharing, open System Preferences->Sharing and uncheck the box next to Bluetooth Sharing.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
