Ciphertext Malleability in TETRA

View on CVE.org

Published Oct 19, 2023 CVSS 3.1 · 5.9 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed

Description

Lack of cryptographic integrity check on TETRA air-interface encrypted traffic. Since a stream cipher is employed, this allows an active adversary to manipulate cleartext data in a bit-by-bit fashion.
