Question

Clark, a professional hacker, attempted to perform a Btlejacking attack using an automated tool, Btlejack, and hardware tool, micro:bit. This attack allowed Clark to hijack, read, and export sensitive information shared between connected devices. To perform this attack, Clark executed various btlejack commands. Which of the following commands was used by Clark to hijack the connections?

Options

  • Abtlejack -f 0x9c68fd30 -t -m 0x1fffffffff
  • Bbtlejack -c any
  • Cbtlejack -d /dev/ttyACM0 -d /dev/ttyACM2 -s
  • Dbtlejack -f 0x129f3244 -j

Why each option

Btlejacking is a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) attack using Btlejack to sniff, jam, and hijack existing BLE connections. Different Btlejack commands serve distinct purposes such as sniffing, scanning, or hijacking.

Abtlejack -f 0x9c68fd30 -t -m 0x1fffffffffCorrect

The command 'btlejack -f 0x9c68fd30 -t -m 0x1fffffffff' is used to hijack an existing BLE connection, where '-f' specifies the Access Address of the target connection, '-t' instructs Btlejack to hijack (takeover) the connection, and '-m' specifies the channel map mask. This combination of flags is specifically designed to perform the connection hijacking phase of a Btlejacking attack.

Bbtlejack -c any

The command 'btlejack -c any' is used to sniff and capture new BLE connections rather than hijack an existing one, as '-c' initiates passive connection sniffing.

Cbtlejack -d /dev/ttyACM0 -d /dev/ttyACM2 -s

The command 'btlejack -d /dev/ttyACM0 -d /dev/ttyACM2 -s' is used to scan for existing BLE connections using multiple micro:bit devices specified by '-d', with '-s' initiating the scanning/sniffing process, not hijacking.

Dbtlejack -f 0x129f3244 -j

The command 'btlejack -f 0x129f3244 -j' is used to jam a specific BLE connection identified by its Access Address using the '-j' (jam) flag, which disrupts the connection rather than hijacking and taking control of it.
