Detail
OverviewVisual Voice Mail (VVM) services transmit unencrypted credentials via SMS. An attacker with the ability to read SMS messages can obtain VVM IMAP credentials and gain access to VVM data. DescriptionVVM is specified by Open Mobile Terminal Platform-OMPT and is implemented with SMS and IMAP (and other protocols). VVM IMAP credentials are sent unencrypted in SMS messages. From vvm-disclosure:
From section 2.1.1.2 AUTHENTICATE of the OMTP VISUAL VOICEMAIL INTERFACE SPECIFICATION v1.3: "The IMAP4 password is sent in the STATUS SMS message." To intercept an SMS message, an attacker would need, for example: * temporary physical access to the SIM card, * to operate a spoofed a base station (cell tower), or * to convince a user to install a malicious application that has SMS access. VVM IMAP services may be widely accessible over the internet or carrier networks. From vvm-disclosure:
ImpactAn attacker with the ability to read SMS messages can obtain VVM IMAP credentials and gain access to VVM data. SolutionWe are not aware of a practical solution to this vulnerability. Take general precautions against SMS interception. If supported, change your VMM password on some basis. Delete VMM data quickly.
