Learn about contemporary telecom and mobile system reverse engineering within the context of Telecom and Mobile Network operators and how to attack core telecom infrastructure (Core Network, Services, Mobile Apps, Handset platforms, IoT platforms). We will see from the mobile handset (Android, apps, platform) to the operator Core Network how these technologies meshed together and how to make sense of their protocols and applications.

Day 1: Operator infrastructure attack surface, Reverse engineering tools and Network element vulnerability research.

  • The training will show the various attack surfaces for these networks and show the impact of vulnerabilities for each network element.
  • The training will show how to apply and used common reverse engineering tools on telecom and mobile systems.
  • Huawei MGW8900 Core Network Element (legacy, monolithic, VxWorks + FPGA) description, analysis and reverse engineering.
  • Huawei HSS / MSC Core Network Element (ATCA, recent, Linux + FPGA) description, analysis and reverse engineering.
  • ZTE Core Network Element (ATCA, recent, Linux) description, analysis and reverse engineering.

Day 2: Mobile (in)security, Subscriber applications reverse engineering and Network protocols analysis.

  • Android platform (Android + Proprietary extensions). We will look into Android applications and platform specifics binaries to find access point to the core network.
  • Mobile phone usage of the network and applications (CS, USSD, SMS, Packet Switched/Data, VAS).
  • We will look into the protocols used by the mobile, analyzing them and detailing where security problems can appear.
  • We will dig into Core Network protocols, reverse engineer some specified and some proprietary telecom Core Network protocols.
  • Access network protocols analysis. We will look into the network protocols that are used by the mobile handsets toward the mobile network.
  • Cisco ASR5x00 Network Element description, analysis and reverse engineering.
