Title: Defcon 19: 4G and CDMA hack Post by: pseud0 on August 10, 2011, 10:50:23 AM If this is accurate then the mobile industry just got kicked in the teeth. Out of an abundance of caution I'm re-imaging my phone.

(if i remember correctly) next time not only take a clean laptop, but a clean phone also.
Title: Re: Defcon 19: 4G and CDMA hack Post by: tturner on August 11, 2011, 07:51:26 AM So far I've not seen any confirmation of this. It is possibly a hoax. Can't believe everything you read on FD.
Can anyone confirm? Title: Re: Defcon 19: 4G and CDMA hack Post by: pseud0 on August 11, 2011, 06:05:45 PM There is some anecdotal confirmation from various folks but nothing I'd consider hard proof. I saw various update alerts on my phone on Saturday but I ignored them, and I was getting certificate errors when I started to browse to my junk mail bucket (hotmail) at which point I killed the session. Some other folks have posted that they had more explicit events (emails from themselves and such), but still nothing outrageous. The laptop I had tethered to my droid was a blank/patched ubuntu install that was nuked 5 minutes after I walked back into my house. As for the phone, well, it was time to try out cyanogenmod 7 anyway.
