False meditation reports via modulated RF injection
Published Dec 2, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Signal injection in InteraXon Muse 2 devices allows remote attackers to falsify Muse App meditation-state reports via RF. The EEG input stage couples an amplitude-modulated carrier, and amplifier nonlinearity demodulates its low-frequency waveform into a false EEG signal. The attack requires nearby radio transmission at a usable carrier frequency and compromises reported neurofeedback integrity without interrupting device operation.
