Cellebrite Can Break Signal
2020-12-21 12:06

Cellebrite's details will make it easier for the Signal developers to patch the vulnerability.

So either Cellebrite believes it is so good that it can break whatever Signal does, or the original blog post was a mistake.

EDITED TO ADD: Signal's Moxie Marlinspike takes serious issue with Cellebrite's announcement.

I have urged him to write it up, and will link to it when he does.

I finally got the chance to read all of this more carefully, and it seems that all Cellebrite is doing is reading the texts off of a phone they can already access.
