Now that we own the keys of a Mifare Classic card, we can move onto cloning them. Just as a quick reminder, the steps to crack the keys were. Hackers, start your microscopes? The MiFare RFID hack, writes Geeta Dayal, used a few tools not in the arsenal of your average code-duffer. But now that researchers. Quruli Tanz Walser Rar.

Is this simply lowering the security down to the same level as a barcode but with radio transmission? Download Manga Gantz Sub Indo Movie. Exactly that, and that's a serious problem. The chips might have been designed for working with small ranges, but you can easily build a reader that overcomes that. Better yet, you can build a reader that works at greater distances and reads tags in bulk. It's kinda like everybody having their bar codes in huge letters stamped at their foreheads, t-shirts, wallets, etc.

It's actually worse than that. As I understand the technology, building a reader with massively longer range is not a simple task. You start running into signal-noise ratios, and signals from multiple local devices, pretty quickly. There have been public demonstrations of RFID technologies that can detect multiple RFID tags inside a single crate successfully, but that doesn't mean they can be detected reliably from the next room. It seems to me that the big deal is that, once read or once the algorithms are decoded, they can be easily programmed into another tag. This problem has already been well demonstrated with the tags on US passports. With the tags popular for some kinds of public transit systems, they're begging to be forged.

It's actually written into the Mifare standard that the range of card reads is below a certain value (~100mm from memory). Obviously the design of the reader itself is mostly responsible for the read range, however this does mean that there are no long range readers in circulation ATM, unlike the old 128KHz cards. This type of card does require active comms with the reader (has a 2 way authentication mechanism) and will be much harder for engineers to produce long range readers as the card itself was never de. Implications: The Philips/NXP proprietary CRYPTO1 stream cipher is broken. This means that any card which relies on this algorithm to encrypt data being transmitted, can have that encrypted data compromised. It appears that the keys can also be compromised, so the whole card can be 'cloned'. This compromises the essence of the smart card, which is not supposed to be reproducible because private keys are supposed to remain secret.
