I know next to nothing about the glasses, but would they be vulnerable to anything the Flipper Zero is capable of doing?

What do you mean “vulnerable”? Are you trying to blow them up?

Hmm, wonder if Bluetooth (D)DoS attacks are a thing.

Requires Linux. But a raspberry pi should do the trick.

how does this work? I thought bluetooth is practically invulnerable to DDOS because of its endless frequency hopping

Haven’t tested it against meta glasses. Essentially it requires the MAC address of the device and pings the shit out of it. May or may not work against the glasses.

Now we just need to combine them both so it only targets Meta devices.

Ok, but how hilarious would it be if a series of vulnerabilities (software & hardware) would be discovered that wound allow just that (set fire to the battery), lol.

That’d be a great TV show plot…but I’m not really a fan of violence. I’d be more interested in rendering them unusable, or spoofing them into making loud fart noises or letting out a loud wolf whistle everytime someone else walks by. Like I said, I don’t know, nor do I much care, what kinds of things the glasses do…but I imagine theres some kind of screen the user can watch, so maybe forcing them to view something annoying could be another viable spoof.
