Show more >In recent years, a class of wireless devices has been demonstrated to be vulnerable to a new side-channel attack called Screaming Channels. This attack exploits distant electromagnetic side channels up to a few meters, when a coupling occurs between the digital activity and the radio transceiver of a system. This can happen in mixed-signal chips, where both digital and analog parts reside on the same silicon die. Until now, the Screaming Channel attack has mainly been demonstrated using custom firmware used in laboratory conditions or simple protocols -- e.g., Google Eddystone.In this paper, we evaluate an end-to-end Screaming Channel attack on a real-world firmware running on an off-the-shelf and popular Bluetooth Low Energy stack. By doing a careful analysis of Bluetooth Low Energy to find how to make the victim device leak, our results show that an attacker can manipulate the protocol such that a Screaming Channel leak happens during a radio transmission. Finally, we conducted one successful full-key recovery attack against AES using instrumented firmware and a partial-key recovery using stock firmware.Show less >
