ultramiraculous posted:someone demonstrated this at some point, maybe even at defcon. i donno if lte is better at all, but you can definitely mitm gsm traffic if you can convince the phone to pick your "tower". if the phone is connecting and communicating, it's probably not a huge jump to capture the phone number and send a "you been phreaked bitch *hello.jpg*" message. it's fairly trivial with gsm (you used to be able to buy the kit to do it off the shelf, it only needed a couple of pretty standard pcs and, intriguingly, a very particular old nokia) - i can't remember the exact details but istr it had to do with having a big old bunch of rainbow tables to be able to complete the challenge-response handshake that a handset uses when moving onto a new cell. i do remember you did need to know at least the number of the phone you wanted to intercept and either call it while it was in range of the intercept gear or spend a long time building those rainbow tables for that particular phone, but once you had it you could continue to intercept all traffic to and from it for as long as it was in range. as far as i know it's possible but very very hard on 3g and up which have specific protections against mitm attacks because of those attacks. e: however if you can jam the non-gsm signals, most phones will give up and try gsm so the attack is still relevant today, but you'd need a lot of juice to selectively jam all those bands and would be putting a big "kick me" sign on your back if the networks happen to be looking goddamnedtwisto fucked around with this message at 08:39 on Aug 8, 2014 |
