Replicant may not be able to do much to guard against such attacks, but what YOU can do as a user is Just Say No to smartphones and go back to using a classic non-smart GSM cellular telephone handset. Go to ebay and grab a Motorola C139, then reflash it with firmware which you yourself compile from source: https://bitbucket.org/falconian/tcs211-c139 When you build the entire firmware yourself from source (there is no separate baseband in dumbphones like Mot C139), you can security-audit it yourself (or hire someone of your choosing) and fix any bugs that might allow over-the-air takeover of code execution.
