Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Samsung P version 9.0
Description The issue allows an attacker with physical access to start a TCP Dump capture without the user's knowledge by exploiting a feature in the Service Mode application. This application is accessible after entering the *#9900# check code and is protected by a locally created OTP password. However, due to poor cryptography handling, the password can be easily obtained by reversing the password creation logic.
Recommendations For Samsung P version 9.0, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Service Mode application until a proper fix is available. Additionally, users should be cautious when allowing physical access to their devices to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
