Ubertooth One

HARDWARE
Great Scott Gadgets · BLE · Bluetooth
GitHub repository ↗

Open BLE/Bluetooth sniffer that follows connections by default (target a BD_ADDR with -t) and captures some Basic Rate Classic. Affordable and battle-tested, but pre-BT5 and weaker on long-lived connections than modern CC1352 sniffers.

COMPATIBLE SOFTWARE & PROJECTS

crackle SOFTWARE Mike Ryan repo ↗

Cracks BLE LE Legacy pairing: brute-forces the TK (Just Works / 6-digit PIN), derives the session keys and decrypts the capture. Feed it a PCAP containing the pairing event (e.g. from Ubertooth). Does not apply to LE Secure Connections.

Wireshark SOFTWARE open source site ↗

The universal packet dissector. Capture tools across these protocols export to PCAP, and Wireshark dissects, decodes and lets you filter the frames here — supplying a network/link key where one is needed to decrypt in place.
