"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- An elevation of privilege vulnerability in the Bluetooth component in Android 4.x before 4.4.4, 5.0.x
before 5.0.2, 5.1.x before 5.1.1, 6.x before 2016-11-01, and 7.0 before 2016-11-01 could enable a local
malicious application to pair with any Bluetooth device without user consent. This issue is rated as
Moderate because it is a local bypass of user interaction requirements (access to functionality that would
normally require either user initiation or user permission.) Android ID: A-29043989. (CVE-2016-6719)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
