Description

Due to unencrypted and unauthenticated data communication, the wireless barcode scanner Inateck BCST-60 is prone to keystroke injection attacks. Thus, an attacker is able to send arbitrary keystrokes to a victims computer system, e.g., to install malware when the target system is unattended. In this way, an attacker can remotely take control over the victims computer that is operated with an affected receiver of this device.
