T-BEAR is a developing suite of applications designed to improve slash "audit" the security of Bluetooth environments. By environment, we mean anything from a home PAN, to your PDA or cell phone. The suite currently consists of the following utilities, all of which are either included in this package, or are under development (* indicates a currently included tool):
* TBEAR: A graphical BT device locater. 'tbear -h' for options.
If you find that you're missing devices during a scan, try adjusting the SLEEPTIME and BT_TIMEOUT values in tbear.h. I suggest leaving the defines at default unless you have obvious problems.
* btsniff: A Bluetooth 'sniffer' for use with gnuradio.
* btkbsniff: Designed to monitor data from a Bluetooth-enabled keyboard. For encrypted traffic, decode options are available.
btvsniff: Designed to monitor voice data from BT headsets.
Decode options are available.
* btcrackpin: Attempts to crack a PIN associated with encrypted BT data.
* tbsearch: A BT hidden device locator. Kind of like Redfang.
Redfang 2.5 implements the features I've put into tbsearch, and then some. Redfang 2.5 is without a doubt better quality than tbsearch. The direction I'd like tbsearch to take is towards faster, more efficient device location methods, since current implementations (including Redfang) by their nature can take *forever* to find a device.
