Creative Katana V2X Speaker Vulnerability Lets Attackers Hack PCs Via Bluetooth
Security researcher Rasmus Moorats discovered that Creative's Katana V2X sound system can be attacked via Bluetooth from up to 15 meters away, allowing malicious firmware to be written to the device. The exploit, called Pwnd Blaster, could turn the speaker into an eavesdropping device or a keyboard input tool. Creative did not patch the vulnerability.
