Hackers Use SS7 Telephony Flaw to Defeat Two-Factor Authentication
Security researchers have warned for years that a gaping security hole has persisted at the heart of the global telephony system: Signaling System 7, or SS7, is designed to connect phone calls between phone networks, but can easily be hijacked by any carrier—or carrier impersonator—that decides to maliciously reroute calls. Now cybercriminals have finally cashed in on that long-lingering flaw. The German phone company O2-Telefonica told the Suddeutsche Zeitung this week that hackers had used an SS7 attack to steal the text messages sent to banking customers as part of their two-factor authentication scheme. After planting malware on the victims’ computers to steal their passwords, the hackers also intercepted the one-time codes sent over SMS when the hackers attempted to use those credentials, defeating that phone-based protection measure. The phone companies can’t say they weren’t warned: The technique was presented in 2014 at the Chaos Communication Conference. Last year, hackers demonstrated it again for 60 Minutes, using it to wiretap a Congressman on camera. And we at WIRED warned that the SS7 flaw is another reason you should stop using text messages for authentication. That advice applies now more than ever.
