MediaTek MT8798 Modem risky encryption

CVSS Meta Temp Score
CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.
Current Exploit Price (≈)
Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.
CTI Interest Score
Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in MediaTek MT6298, MT6813, MT6815, MT6833, MT6835, MT6853, MT6855, MT6873, MT6875, MT6875T, MT6877, MT6878, MT6879, MT6883, MT6885, MT6889, MT6891, MT6893, MT6895, MT6895T, MT6896, MT6897, MT6980, MT6980D, MT6983, MT6990, MT8673, MT8675, MT8765, MT8766, MT8768, MT8771, MT8786, MT8791T, MT8792, MT8797 and MT8798. This affects some unknown processing of the component Modem. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a risky encryption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-327. The product uses a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm or protocol. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:

In modem, there is a possible information disclosure due to using risky cryptographic algorithm during connection establishment negotiation. This could lead to remote information disclosure, when weak encryption algorithm is used, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: MOLY00942482; Issue ID: MSV-1469.

The advisory is shared at corp.mediatek.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2024-20070 since 11/02/2023. The exploitability is told to be difficult. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1600 for this issue.

Applying the patch MOLY00942482 is able to eliminate this problem.
