UK Detects Chip-And-PIN SecurityFlaw
http://www.cardtechnology.com/article.html?id=20060606I2K75YSX
APACS says the security lapse came to light in a recent study of the
authentication technology used in the UK's new "chip-and-PIN" card system.
... snip ...
this was documented as the "yes card" in 2002 regarding chip&pin
rollouts that had been done in the 99-2002 time-frame
since the "yes card" vulnerability is an attack against the pos terminal
(not the card) ... and since the vulnerability is part of the standard
... even if all new cards were rolled w/o the "fix" ... the
infrastructure might still be vulnerable if POS terminals could be
convinced to communicate using the vulnerable standard (this is somewhat
analogous to attacker attacking protocols and convincing parties to
downgrade to lower encryption).
misc. posts discussing the "yes card" vulnerability as well as
mentioning possible man-in-the-middle attack against the fix for "yes
card" vulnerability.
