Raspberry MoCA - A recipe for compromise

Raspberry MoCA - A recipe for compromise

Media over Coax Alliance (MoCA) is a protocol specification to enable assured high-bandwidth connections for the high demands of voice, video, and high-speed data connections – the ‘triple play.’ Verizon, Cox, Comcast, and many other service providers have adopted MoCA as the de facto networking technology used to provide in-home broadband services. This is accomplished by encapsulating Ethernet protocols over coaxial cabling common to interior television wiring. In this presentation, the vulnerabilities presented by the use of MoCA encapsulation in conjunction with common recommended coaxial wiring standards are realized with the development of Raspberry MoCA, an embedded device that provides a drop-in, automated exploitation kit which can be installed outside the target structure in less than five minutes, providing remote access and complete control over the connecting LAN.
