![]() ![]() FreePBX is available as an AWS AMI image, so that’s the route that I took. However, internally NAT’ed will work if you plan on VPN’ing in and using a softphone or using port forwarding. You need to setup your Asterisk server to where it can be accessible-ideally an external IP. Analogous to an external IP address, but for telephony. DID (Direct Inward Dialing) – This is the telephone number assigned by your service provider.DISA (Direct Inward System Access) – This is sort of like VPN’ing to your internal system, so you can dial internal extensions.IAX (Inter-Asterisk Exchange) – Legacy, less chatty, must have trunk to convert from IAX to SIP service provider.RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) – Chatty, used to transmit audio after authentication and negotiations.SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) –The de facto standard for VoIP communication, used for initial authentication and negotiations when making connections.So here’s how you can build your own caller ID spoofer. Hopefully this will help folks in the industry to overcome some of the challenges I’ve faced. I’m certainly not a PBX or telephony expert, nor do I have a background managing Asterisk, but I am good at hammering on stuff until it seems to work. That’s more like it! Additionally, for calls that answered, each averaged 53 seconds in order for Warvox to record and fingerprint devices, such as modems, faxes, or angry security guards. When we did the wardialing job with our home-grown spoofer, the bill from our SIP service provider was less than $10 for over 2,000 calls. However, these services can cost upwards of 25 cents per call, which simply isn’t sustainable when we make thousands of calls per year. There are services that can automate this process for you-some even have mobile apps that have other features, such as call recording and voice changing. Most importantly, I learned how to spoof your caller ID when wardialing-which can be used for a lot more than just prank calling your buddies. So I set to work learning about modem hacking, telephony, and a lot about Asterisk. This was a challenge because not only did I not know anything about modem hacking, but I didn’t know anything about the wide world of telephony.įortunately, I had about two weeks to figure it out before the job started. My Introduction to AsteriskĮarly in my penetration testing career, I was tasked with performing a wardialing modem hacking gig-the client wanted to test their telephone network for modem-related weaknesses. ![]() ![]() In this post, we'll explain how security professionals can build a caller ID spoofer for purposes of simulating attacks and building internal awareness. Spoofing telephone numbers is a real-world tactic used by malicious actors as part of phishing campaigns, so it's a helpful capability for internal security teams to have in their arsenals as they defend their organizations against this common threat. These tests should strive to be as real-world as possible in order to accurately simulate a malicious actor and learn from employees’ reactions and ascertain the level of risk they pose to the organization. These may include hiring third-party consulting companies as well as performing internal tests. Organizations with mature security programs often test their own internal awareness programs by performing social engineering campaigns (e.g., telephone pretexting) on their personnel.
