Some of the features as described in the German product manual are (see [1]): " - - Alarmanlagen-Set mit drahtlosen Sensoren und Mobilfunk-Anbindung - - SOS-Modus, Stiller Alarm, Uberwachungs- und Intercom-Funktion - - Integrierte Quad-Band Mobilfunkeinheit fur GSM-Netze im 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz-Bereich - - Alarmbenachrichtigung auf externe Telefone - - Eingebaute Sirene (ca. 90 dB), inkl. Anschluss fur externe Sirene - - Unterstutzung fur bis zu 98 kabellosen Sensoren / bis zu 4 kabelgebundene Sensoren - - Stromausfallsicherung der Basiseinheit durch 4 x AAA Alkaline-Batterien - - Fernbedienbar per Telefon " Due to an insecure implementation of the used 433 MHz radio communication, the EASY HOME MAS-S01-09 wireless alarm system is vulnerable to replay attacks. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vulnerability Details: SySS GmbH found out that the radio communication protocol used by the EASY HOME MAS-S01-09 wireless alarm system and its remote control is not protected against replay attacks. Therefore, an attacker can record the 433 MHz radio signal of a wireless remote control, for example using a software-defined radio, when the alarm system is disarmed by its owner, and play it back at a later time in order to disable the alarm system at will. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Proof of Concept (PoC): SySS GmbH could successfully perform a replay attack as described in the previous section using a software-defined radio and disarm an EASY HOME MAS-S01-09 wireless alarm system in an unauthorized way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Solution: SySS GmbH is not aware of a solution for this reported security vulnerability concerning the tested product version. For further information please contact the manufacturer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Disclosure Timeline: 2016-09-26: Vulnerability reported to manufacturer 2016-09-30: Manufacturer responds to reported security issue and that the information will be integrated in the next product version 2016-09-30: E-mail to manufacturer concerning a security advice in the product manual 2016-10-04: Response concerning security advice in product manual 2016-11-23: Public release of security advisory ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ References: [1] Product manual of EASY HOME MAS-S01-09 wireless alarm system http://monolith-shop.de/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/MAS-S01-09_Alarmanlage_Bedienungsanleitung.pdf [2] SySS Security Advisory SYSS-2016-106 https://www.syss.de/fileadmin/dokumente/Publikationen/Advisories/SYSS-2016-106.txt [3] SySS GmbH, SySS Responsible Disclosure Policy https://www.syss.de/en/news/responsible-disclosure-policy/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Credits: This security vulnerability was found by Matthias Deeg of SySS GmbH.
