Package: libpam-blue
Version: 0.9.0-1
Severity: minor
"Due to the fact that a whole part of the Bluetooth stack is
implemented in hardware-side it is relatively difficult to change the
Bluetooth hardware MAC address which makes this module more secure."
This sentence confuses me. Evidently there are two things, and one is
more secure than the other. But it's not clear to me what those two
things are. For example
- using libpam-blue is more secure than *not* using libpam-blue.
- using libpam-blue is more secure than using some competing library.
- using bluetooth is more secure than a wired input device.
- using bluetooth is more secure than using some competing wireless protocol.
