Severity by source
AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
AV:A for Bluetooth adjacency; AC:H because exploitation requires capturing a live pairing handshake and successfully brute-forcing the key offline; A:N as the description supports key recovery and eavesdropping, not denial of service.
Primary rating from Vendor (Silabs).

SMP security request (from peripheral) does not include the maximum encryption key size supported. Using a key with less than the maximum keysize makes brute-forcing the key easier. See V6 in BLERP paper linked below.
AnalysisAI
BLE encryption key downgrade in Silicon Labs WiseConnect allows adjacent, unauthenticated attackers to brute-force session keys. When a peripheral initiates SMP (Security Manager Protocol) pairing, WiseConnect's security request omits the device's maximum supported encryption key size. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to be within Bluetooth radio range (typically 10-100 meters depending on transmit power and environment) of a device running the affected WiseConnect BLE stack. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The NVD-assigned CVSS 3.1 score of 8.8 (AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) reflects the adjacent network vector (Bluetooth range) and full CIA impact if encryption is defeated. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker positioned within Bluetooth radio range of a WiseConnect-based peripheral waits for, or triggers, a BLE re-pairing event between the peripheral and a central device. The attacker captures the SMP pairing exchange - including the Pairing Confirm and Pairing Random PDUs - using a BLE sniffer. … |
| Remediation | The primary remediation is to upgrade WiseConnect/SiSDK to the fixed version referenced in Silicon Labs' release notes (https://docs.silabs.com/sisdk-release-notes/latest/sisdk-wifi-release-notes/sisdk-wifible-ble-release-notes and https://docs.silabs.com/rs9116-wiseconnect/latest/wifibt-wc-release-notes/rs9116-ble-release-notes#bug-fixes); consult those pages and the Silicon Labs community advisory at https://community.silabs.com/068Vm00000x0yyH for the exact patched SDK build. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
