Prepare to "Jackpotting Automated Teller Machines Redux"

In near BlackHat event 2010 in Las Vegas Barnaby Jack will show us a presentation about remotely and locally attacking ATM's and also an example of ATM rootkit. I hope it will be wery interesting because Jack's presentation in 2009 was halted by ATM Vendor because those vulnerabilities was 0-days and very critical. So get ready !

Here is some text from announcement:

"Jackpotting Automated Teller Machines Redux"

The presentation "Jackpotting Automated Teller Machines" was originally on the schedule at Black Hat USA 2009. Due to circumstances beyond my control, the talk was pulled at the last minute. The upside to this is that there has been an additional year to research ATM attacks, and I'm armed with a whole new bag of tricks.

I've always liked the scene in Terminator 2 where John Connor walks up to an ATM, interfaces his Atari to the card reader and retrieves cash from the machine. I think I've got that kid beat.

The most prevalent attacks on Automated Teller Machines typically involve the use of card skimmers, or the physical theft of the machines themselves. Rarely do we see any targeted attacks on the underlying software.

Last year, there was one ATM; this year, I'm doubling down and bringing two new model ATMs from two major vendors. I will demonstrate both local and remote attacks, and I will reveal a multi-platform ATM rootkit. Finally, I will discuss protection mechanisms that ATM manufacturers can implement to safeguard against these attacks.
