Broadcast decryption via device-stored static IV
Published Sep 26, 2024 · Updated Sep 26, 2024
Insecure key storage in goTenna Pro ATAK Plugin 1.9.12 and earlier allows physically proximate attackers to decrypt broadcast traffic. The plugin stores encryption keys beside a static initialization vector on the end-user device, enabling complete recovery of those keys. Physical access and control of the device are required; recovered keys expose encrypted broadcasts that use them.
