name: MITM
full_form: Man-in-the-Middle Attack
context: (A-1.3.2.1.1): a MITM attacker tampers with a message before sending it to the recipient. Tampering CP/UP (A-1.3.2.1.1.1): a MITM attacker tampers with control plane message or user plane packet before sending to the recipient. Linkability (A-1.3.2.1.1.1.1): a MITM attacker modifies a message based on information captured from a previously session and observes the response to the tampered message to infer the linkage between the two. DoS (Type 2) (A-1.3.2.1.1.2): a MITM can selectively drop or tamper with message exchanged between a victim UE and a legitimate gNB to cause service disruption. aLTEr/IMP4GT (A-1.3.2.1.1.3): tampering on user plane traffic in LTE due to the lack of integrity protection. Other attacks (A-1.3.2.1.1.4): other potential attacks by a MITM attacker. Relaying (A-1.3.2.1.2): a MITM attacker replays messages between a victim UE and a legitimate gNB without tampering. Authentication relaying (A-1.3.2.1.2.1): a MITM attacker replays authentication related messages
description: Man-in-the-Middle Attack (MITM) is a type of cyber attack where an attacker intercepts and alters communication between two parties, often to steal sensitive information or disrupt service.
explanation: The description focuses on the malicious intent and actions of intercepting and manipulating communication for harmful purposes like data theft or service disruption, which are characteristic of cybersecurity threats.
