Presentation Transcript

  1. FM 99.9, Radio Virus: Exploiting FM Radio Broadcasts for Malware Deployment E. Fernandes, B. Crispo, M. Conti IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security 8(6): 1027-1037 (2013)

  2. Take Home Message • New attack vector with interesting features ...for attackers • Learning and exploiting security weakness of Android security model and its implementation • Inadequateness of existing mobile AV solutions

  3. FM Radio

  4. FM Radio Data System (RDS) Baseband coding 1,187.5 bits per second on a 57 kHz subcarrier

  5. Our FM Radio Attack • New attack vector: FM RDS broadcast channel • Exploiting vulnerability of Android and FM Radio API • Cross-device: Smartphone, Car Radio, USB token • Cost <500$ Antenna RDS Encoder Transmitter Circuit Audio Signal Receiver Antenna RS232 Control

  6. Attack

  7. Actual AVs do not help

  8. Unique Features • Zero-fingerpring Attack • Broadcast • Geographic Attack • Can target a specific physical perimeter

  9. Old Lessons Confirmed • One-fits-All paradygm is very bad for security • But good for interoperabiliy, time-to-market, ROI • Shortcuts to bypass the security model can only create problems • Difficult for a model to accomodate: openess, evolution and adaptation
