CCC Hackers Break DECT Telephones' Security

Posted by timothy on from the distibuting-dialtone dept.

Sub Zero 992 writes "Heise Security (article in German) is reporting that at this year's Chaos Communications Congress (25C3) researchers in Europe's dedected.org group have published an article (PDF) showing, using a PC-Card costing only EUR 23, how to eavesdrop on DECT transmissions. There are hundreds of millions of terminals, ranging from telephones, to electronic payment terminals, to door openers, using the DECT standard." So far, the Heise article's German only, but I suspect will show up soon in English translation. Update: 12/30 21:27 GMT by T : Reader Juha-Matti Laurio writes with the story in English. Thanks!

    My name is John, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, retarded, no-lifes who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass pictures. You are everything bad in the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any pussy? I mean, I guess it's fun making fun of people because of your own insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to pictures on facebook.

    Don't be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I'm pretty much perfect. I was captain of the football team, and starter on my basketball team. What sports do you play, other than "jack off to naked drawn japanese people"? I also get straight A's, and have a banging hot girlfriend (She just blew me; Shit was SO cash). You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening.

    Ich spreche nicht am Telefon, aber hier ist meine Geschichte:

    Ich ging ein braunes Seil heute Morgen von der Größe eines kleinen schwarzen Kind. An einer Stelle war ich nicht sicher, ob ich eine Scheiße, oder es war die Scheiße, die mich. Und während ich in diesem Punkt, was ist das Geschäft mit einer Scheiße? Sollte es nicht aus einem shit? Ich bin sicher nicht die alles mit mir, wenn ich tun.

    Aber zurück zum Thema, Telefone sucks ass

    Too bad the Germans outlawed grammar Nazis after WWII. They would have been all over this post.
