The Mobile Security Conference (MOSEC) is organized by Team Pangu and PoC and was first started in 2015. MOSEC focuses on cutting-edge research topics the area of mobile security, fosters information exchange among researchers and practitioners, and received high praise from both the attendees and the community.

MOSEC 2020 will be held on Friday, July 24, 2020 at the Wanda Reign hotel, in Shanghai, China. Following the success of the past events, MOSEC 2020 will continue to facilitate the most advanced knowledge and technology sharing. MOSEC 2020 will bring excellent security researchers to present their frontier studies to the world.

Founded by Team Pangu, the Pangu Lab is a security laboratory consisting of many senior security professionals with rich experience across a wide range of security research and industrial development. The members of the Pangu Lab discovered hundreds of 0day vulnerabilities in major operating systems and applications, and presented many papers and talks at the premier forums such as Black Hat, CanSecWest, Syscan, RUXCON, HITCon, PoC, XCon , IEEE S&P, USENIX Security, ACM CCS, and NDSS.

Pangu Lab’s current research focuses on mobile security. Team Pangu is known for its multiple releases of untethered jailbreak tools for iOS 7, iOS 8, and iOS 9. Team Pangu was also the first to jailbreak iOS 8 and iOS 9 in the world. Besides iOS, Pangu Lab also made great progress in Android security research, and developed various products for discovering vulnerabilities in Android apps, detecting malicious Android apps, and mining mobile threat information.

POC started in 2006 and has been organized by Korean hackers & security experts. It is the biggest international security & hacking conference in Korea. POC concentrates on technical and creative discussion and shows real hacking and security. POC will share knowledge for the sake of the power of community. POC believes that the power of community will make the world safer. POC has been making a history with sincere staffs, hackers from the world, and sponsors since 2006.

Explain JSC optimization measures in depth
S0rryMybad
ABSTRACT

JSC is a JS engine used in Safari (Webkit), and many optimization measures are used to improve the quality and speed of code during JIT.

I will combine 1-2 the most complex bugs I've encountered so far, involving how to use profile trick to generate the opcode patterns I need, and many details of DFG optimization, such as DFGAI, opcode hoist, CFG Analysis, etc. I hope this slide can help you for finding and exploiting bugs.

A pratical New Framework for Blackbox Android Binary Fuzzing
Qidan He
ABSTRACT

Nowadays coverage-guided and structure-aware fuzzing cannot be more popular, with tools like AFL and libfuzzer ready-to-use for various OSS libraries. But closed source ones are almost absent in this party, with few discussions and no public tools on how to apply coverage guided fuzzing to them.

Fuzzing closed-source android libraries proposes new challenges, how do we apply instrumentation to them? How do we emulate syscalls and runtime on a different architecture? How do we effectively catch minor memory errors? Last but not least, since speed is the crucial part for fuzzing campaign, what efforts can be taken to reduce performance overhead? In a word, can we come up with a framework that enables us to fuzz them as easily and effective as for OSS libraries?

The answer is yes. In this presentation I will come up with a new fuzzing framework - DroidCorn, which can be used to fuzz android closed-source libraries out-of-the-box, scalable across cluster of x86 servers (no arm device needed), written with performance in mind. We will discuss previous work on this topic and what we have done for the ultimate goal, and real-world actions&findings.

Understanding the Apple IO80211Family Subsystem
Wang Yu
ABSTRACT

Starting from iOS 13 and macOS 10.15 Catalina, Apple refactored the architecture of the 80211 Wi-Fi client drivers and renamed the new generation design to IO80211FamilyV2. Compared with IO80211Family (V1), modules such as Version 2 and AppleBCMWLANCore integrate the original AirPortBrcm series drivers and further expand features such as Sidecar and Skywalk. These latest changes provide better support and protection for communication and data sharing between devices. Of course, we should also realize that new features are always accompanied by new vulnerabilities and potential risks of being attacked.

This research will delve into each of the affected Wi-Fi kernel components and explore new attack surfaces. I will also share with you more than a dozen iOS/macOS vulnerabilities. Through these brand new cases, this presentation will help you better understand the design and security challenges of Apple's 80211 Wi-Fi subsystem.

Surge in the dark
slipper
ABSTRACT

The SoC shipped with new flagship phones is always the hottest topic among geeks. Qualcomm and MediaTek are the major players in SoC market, some manufacturers like Apple, Huawei and Samsung have designed their own SoCs. To our surprise, Xiaomi also developed its own SoC.

In 2017, Xiaomi released its first and only SoC, Surge S1, which is shipped with Mi5c. However, the new device was suspended in a few months, leaving us in the dark about Surge S1.

Never before had we been so passionate and curious about Chinese chips. In this talk, I will explore Mi5c and Surge S1 from a security researcher’s view, inspecting the surge in the dark.

Attack Secure Boot of SEP
Hao Xu
ABSTRACT

From iPhone 5S, Touch ID and Face ID could be used to unlock the phone. To secure user's biological data, Apple introduce SEP(Secure Enclave Processor) to handle passcode and biological data.

SEP has its own dedicated environment to run its own SEPOS and APPs based on that. The only way of communication between SEP and AP(Application Processor) is secure mailbox. So even attacker controls AP, he can not directly impact code and data from SEP. The isolation architecture of SEP and AP maximumly secures user's data.

And I guess most of you are already familiar with secure boot of AP on iPhone. Actually SEP also has its own secure boot to load SEPOS. In this topic, we will reverse the SEPROM to understand the initializing process of SEP. More specifically, we will detail the messages between SEP and AP as well as how the shared memory is setup. Meanwhile, checkm8 exploit allows us to execute our code during iBoot to talk to SEP for testing. At last I will reveal some vulnerabilities for old devices which could enlarge the attack surface of secure boot of SEP.
