Perusahaan dapat secara diam-diam mengubah rute teks Anda ke peretas, terkadang hanya dengan $ 16

March 16, 2021 by Winnie the Pooh

Ada serangan yang baru ditemukan pada perpesanan SMS yang hampir tidak terlihat oleh korban, dan tampaknya disetujui oleh industri telekomunikasi, diungkap dalam laporan oleh Motherboard.

Serangan tersebut menggunakan layanan manajemen pesan teks yang ditujukan untuk bisnis untuk mengarahkan pesan teks secara diam-diam dari korban ke peretas, memberi mereka akses ke kode dua faktor atau tautan masuk yang dikirim melalui pesan teks.

Terkadang, perusahaan yang menyediakan layanan tidak mengirim pesan apa pun ke nomor yang sedang dialihkan, baik untuk meminta izin atau bahkan untuk memberi tahu pemilik bahwa SMS mereka sekarang dikirimkan ke orang lain.

Dengan menggunakan layanan ini, penyerang tidak hanya dapat mencegat pesan teks yang masuk, tetapi mereka juga dapat membalas.

Joseph Cox, reporter dari Motherboard, meminta seseorang berhasil melakukan serangan terhadap nomornya, dan hanya menelan biaya $ 16. Ketika dia menghubungi perusahaan lain yang menyediakan layanan pengalihan SMS, beberapa dari mereka melaporkan bahwa mereka pernah melihat serangan semacam ini sebelumnya.

Perusahaan tertentu yang digunakan Motherboard dilaporkan telah memperbaiki eksploit tersebut, tetapi masih banyak perusahaan lain yang seperti itu – dan tampaknya tidak ada orang yang meminta pertanggungjawaban perusahaan tersebut.

Perhatian utama pada serangan SMS adalah implikasinya terhadap keamanan akun Anda yang lain. Jika penyerang bisa mendapatkan tautan atau kode pengaturan ulang kata sandi yang dikirim ke nomor telepon Anda, mereka akan memiliki akses ke sana dan bisa masuk ke akun Anda. Pesan teks juga terkadang digunakan untuk mengirim tautan masuk, seperti yang ditemukan Motherboard dengan Postmates, WhatsApp, dan Bumble.
