"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.

  - Pairing in Bluetooth Core v5.2 and earlier may permit an unauthenticated attacker to acquire credentials
    with two pairing devices via adjacent access when the unauthenticated user initiates different pairing
    methods in each peer device and an end-user erroneously completes both pairing procedures with the MITM
    using the confirmation number of one peer as the passkey of the other. An adjacent, unauthenticated
    attacker could be able to initiate any Bluetooth operation on either attacked device exposed by the
    enabled Bluetooth profiles. This exposure may be limited when the user must authorize certain access
    explicitly, but so long as a user assumes that it is the intended remote device requesting permissions,
    device-local protections may be weakened. (CVE-2020-10134)
