Securing the Invisible Thread: A Comprehensive Analysis of BLE Tracker Security in Apple AirTags and Samsung SmartTags. (arXiv:2401.13584v1 [cs.CR])

This study presents an in-depth analysis of the security landscape in
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) tracking systems, with a particular emphasis on
Apple AirTags and Samsung SmartTags, including their cryptographic frameworks.
Our investigation traverses a wide spectrum of attack vectors such as physical
tampering, firmware exploitation, signal spoofing, eavesdropping, jamming, app
security flaws, Bluetooth security weaknesses, location spoofing, threats to
owner devices, and cloud-related vulnerabilities. Moreover, we delve into the
security implications of the cryptographic methods utilized in these systems. …
