fang is a small proof-of-concept application to find non discoveredable bluetooth devices. This is done by brute forcing the last six (6) bytes of the bluetooth address of the device and doing a read_remote_name().

Only use this tool against systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test — see the disclaimer.

Getting started

Install on Kali Linux with `sudo apt install redfang`. See the official Kali tool page linked above for full usage and configuration details.
