Researchers at EURECOM have issued a report to the Bluetooth SIG that identifies that BR/EDR devices supporting Secure Connections pairing and Secure Simple Pairing in Bluetooth® Core Specifications 4.

I recalled reading about this at the beginning of this month, I haven’t seen any updates on a fix or anything. Figured I’d ponder it with you folks over here.
