This topic cover,s the POC on how we can easily hack the TV channels which are being operated by Cable Operators.To proceed first of all you will have to understand how this works, Whats the logic behind this?
Live Tv Broadcast is coming through the following medium,s
- Main Station
- Satellite
- Receiver
- Cable Operator
- Your TV
The flow chart for this is below :-
Main TV Station --> Satellite --> Cable Operator --> Your TV
sorry for my spelling mistake , There is a Main TV station which is Transmitter and is responsible for the LIVE TV Broadcast of the channel in which it transmits signals to satellite and then satellite confirms and re-transmit it to the TV stations , DISH TV,s and cable operators in which then cable operators again transmit the captured signals to your TV.
In this the Cable Operator have a computer system which controls the entire transmission of channels recieved from TV stations and this Computer system is linked with another device which re-transmit the captured signals to your tv via cable.
Now what if we play a Man in the middle attack MITM ? and hack into the computer system of cable operator ? Yes if we hacked the cable operator system and backdoor it with any type of virus or RAT then we will be able to control the entire system and can execute our commands to the system and may display our videos , pictures to all those who are viewing the tv from the same cable operator will be redirected to your video or picture which you executed after hacking into the computer system of cable operator.
This was one of the technique which few hackers use and have fun by hacking into the cable operated tv channels and mostly hackers use this technique to make them self famous , for fame or maybe any other reason.
Those systems which cable operators use are just like RDP of hosting system which runs 24/7 non-stop.
Have FUN.
