Exploit

There is a stack overflow in the AT+XAPP‭="..." ‬command‭, ‬which allows unsigned code execution on the X-Gold 608 and XMM 6180.

at+xapp="aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa4444555566667777PPPP"

Applying a string of more than 52‭ ‬characters will trigger the overflow.

It also exists on the XMM 6180

Implementation

The exploit was used by iPhone Dev Team in ultrasn0w 0.93‭ which is able to unlock the X-Gold 608 basebands 4.26.08, 5.11.07, 5.12.01 ‬and 5.13.04.
