Public bug reported: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, when Bluetooth is on, the computer stays discoverable which opens up unnecessary vulnerability surface. There should be a separate UI switch for discoverability with auto timeout. Leaving bluetooth on (using a Bluetooth mouse) should not leave the computer always discoverable.
Current behavior does not match documentation https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/bluetooth-visibility.html.en, even without Bluetooth panel open, the computer is still discoverable. ** Affects: indicator-bluetooth (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1787867 Title: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS bluetooth left discoverable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-bluetooth/+bug/1787867/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
