Beware GSM calls get Hacked:A5/1 Algorithm turns Flaw!
,----[ Quote ]
| Last August they kicked off an open-source
| project to create the cracking tables â
| something that would take a decent gaming
| computer about 10 years to compute â and
| they have shown which open-source tools
| could be used to intercept messages, but
| they have stopped short of designing a
| device to intercept the messages. This is,
| however, something that a technically
| sophisticated hacker could figure out.

Open-Source Effort to Hack GSM
,----[ Quote ]
| The aim of the project, he says, is not to
| "break anything" but rather to create an
| awareness of "a long-standing
| vulnerability" in GSM encryption technology
| and, ultimately, to push mobile phone
| operators still delivering calls over GSM
| networks either to phase in the more
| advanced voice and text-messaging
| encryption technology, A5/3, or upgrade to
| a newer-generation digital phone system.
