Summary
Affected are SwitchBot Lock, Lock Pro, Lock Wifi, Lock Ultra, Lock Lite and other products before their fixed versions. Misuse and misconfiguration of cryptography in Bluetooth communication, including weak initialization vector generation (CWE-1204), lets a manipulated communication protocol bypass the electronic lock and its access controls. A local attacker needs no privileges or user interaction to do this.
