The Bluetooth chipset installed in popular models from major manufacturers is vulnerable. Hackers could use it to initiate calls and eavesdrop on devices.

Sony WH-1000XM4/5/6

I don't have one of those, but they're pretty popular as headphones with good ANC.

Jlab Epic Air Sport ANC

I do have those, though.

Yeah. I have the previous version of the WH which seems not affected, but I also have the WF 3 which unfortunately seems to be.

Many people have sony headphones with thise chips.
