They hooked a raspberry pi up to the network switch. At this point i think they fucked up security pretty bad
The criminals, or the people they paid to carry out the physical attack, connected a Raspberry Pi to a bank’s network switch, the same one hooked up to the ATM that was subsequently raided.
They’re kind of skipping over an important detail here.
Sure the technical details are interesting, but it’s a bit like discussing the alloys of the tumblers of the safe deposit box after the team has unexplainably bypassed the main safe door…
Yeah that implies physical access.
Like it takes a ceritain security level to even get into rooms that have those switches.
It was probably some IT worker.
Hope they never get caught lol
I saw cybercrooks and had to take the opportunity
The backdoor, for example, appeared to be the LightDM display manager often used by Linux systems, demonstrating the group’s skillset, which the researchers said spanned Linux, Unix, and Oracle Solaris environments.
The backdoor was the display manager. Well goddamn.
honestly, pretty poor security here. I can’t say much cause I don’t have inter-device restrictions either… but I’m also not a bank that handles money.
There’s no reason a random device should have been able to interface with any of the other devices tbh, I’m guessing the switch wasn’t smart so didn’t support Mac filtering or port disabling cause that should have not been a valid attack vector.
Watch them try to ban raspberry pi now … like they did with the flipper
