CVE-2024-41722

goTenna Pro ATAK Plugin Weak Authentication

Published Sep 26, 2024 CVSS 4.0 · 6 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the goTenna Pro ATAK Plugin there is a vulnerability that makes it
possible to inject any custom message with any GID and Callsign using a
software defined radio in existing goTenna mesh networks. This
vulnerability can be exploited if the device is being used in an
unencrypted environment or if the cryptography has already been
compromised. It is advised to use encryption shared with local QR code
for higher security operations.

Remediation

Vendor Solution

goTenna recommends that users mitigate these vulnerabilities by performing the following updates: * ATAK Plugin: v2.0.7 or greater


Vendor Workaround

goTenna recommends that users follow these mitigations: General Mitigations for All Users/Clients * Use Discreet Callsigns and Key Names: Choose callsigns and key names that do not disclose sensitive information, such as your location, team size, or team name. Avoid using any identifiers that could inadvertently reveal your location or the composition of your team. * Secure End-User Devices: Implement strong security measures on all end-user devices, including the use of encryption and ensuring regular software updates. * Follow Key Rotation Best Practices: Regularly rotate encryption keys according to industry best practices to maintain ongoing security. Pro-Specific Mitigations * Share Encryption Keys via QR Code: Utilize QR codes, similar to ATAK, for the secure exchange of encryption keys. * Secure Broadcasting: When broadcasting, ensure you are in a secured area and transmit the key at a reduced power of 0.5 Watts to limit exposure. * Leverage Layered Encryption: Implement layered encryption keys to securely manage communications, whether interacting with individuals or teams.
