PING to dayglored, Thundersleeps and ShadowAce for your pinglists.
Depending on who is reporting this SimJacker, this exploit either affects all cellular phones with a GSM and CDMA standard, or not. . . I suspect it does. It’s in the standard and unless the people who maintain the code have taken specific steps to remove the toolkit from the code it’s in there. AT&T claims their SIM cards don’t have it, but why do I doubt them, they’ve never been known to lie before (ROTFLMAO!) about something that might negatively impact their bottom line have they(?), and Verizon says “they’re not sure” or something similar. Experts in the SIM field are all scratching their heads over it. . . So the question is up in the air.
Sprint uses SIM cards but they are tracked by their network and are permanently tied to the phone’s ESID in their database. You cant just swap one to your new Sprint phone and start using it it. Because of that I don’t really see the advantage of using SIMs on their network, as the whole idea of a SIM is to make your cellular account portable between phones. If you have to go to Tech Support to get your phone switched over (and they always mail you a new SIM card) then what’s the point of having them?
