Toorcon 2013 Multiplexed Wired Attack Surfaces - Michael Ossmann & Kyle Osborn (Kos)
Manufacturers of mobile devices often multiplex several wired interfaces onto a single connector. Some of these interfaces, probably intended for test and development, are still enabled when the devices ship. We'll show you how you can get a shell on a popular mobile phone via its USB port without using a USB connection and we will release an open source tool for exploring multiplexed wired interfaces. http://sandiego.toorcon.net/2013/10/07/multiplexed-wired-attack-surfaces/ http://greatscottgadgets.com/infiltrate2013
