VAR-201911-0619
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2023-12-18 13:43The Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) protocol allows remote attackers to spoof a Presidential Alert because cryptographic authentication is not used, as demonstrated by MessageIdentifier 4370 in LTE System Information Block 12 (aka SIB12). NOTE: testing inside an RF-isolated shield box suggested that all LTE phones are affected by design (e.g., use of Android versus iOS does not matter); testing in an open RF environment is, of course, contraindicated. The vulnerability stems from incorrect use of relevant cryptographic algorithms by network systems or products, resulting in improperly encrypted content, weak encryption, and storing sensitive information in plain text
