The author of this paper alerted Google on June 11, 7:35 AM EST, less than 6 hours ago. While we recognize this is a rapidly-evolving space, a few hours is not in line with responsible disclosure[1] timelines.

While we're still preparing a proper response to the submitter, the paper makes an invalid assumption that RPI rotation and BLE address rotation are out-of-step and overlap. The BLE and RPI changes are synced; the MAC address is always rotated with the RPI/packet is rotated. We're still investigating our implementation to verify, but we do not believe this to be a vulnerability. I will reply to this thread should our investigation find anything.
