Bluetooth stacks are a pretty rich source of bugs and security issues. Back when I was working at a consumer electronics manufacturer circa 2010, I documented nearly a dozen different crashes/bugs on Android and iOS devices caused by malformed packets my own buggy code was sending. Even simple things like getting the length of HID descriptors wrong would crash iOS at the time. I imagine they've fixed a lot of those with time and better tooling, and BLE is a much simpler standard to boot, but clearly there's still some gremlins lying around.
