Background
Goals
- allow web content to dial out
- allow content to mediate incoming calls (accept/reject/merge) *allow content to query transceiver state
Bug:
- B2G Meta telephony bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=699235
- Web Telephony meta bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674726
Articles:
- http://hacks.mozilla.org/2012/03/webtelephony-api-and-websms-api-part-of-webapi/
- Detailed code walkthrough for receive call case: https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/Architecture#RIL:_Telephony

Threat Model
| ID | Title | Threat | Proposed Mitigations | Threat Agent | Rating | Likelihood | Notes | Impact | Notes |
| 1 | Unauthorized content accesses the Web Telephony API | A web page or web app accesses the Telephony API with having the valid permissions or requirements | \* App Permissions Model will enforce which apps can access which APIs
\* B2G security model will enforce permissions model at a process level (ie less privileged process not allowed to send IPDL messages even if permissions check fails at an API level)||Malicious web content||||Requires a bug in broader browser security model||||||\* Place unauthorized calls, cost the user money, make spam phone calls \* Use phone a bugging device, breach user privacy \* probably would have broader implications | ||||||
| 2 | Attack from radio network | Malicious service provider or attacker with ability to inject radio packets could attack the web telephony stack. | \* Code review
\* Fuzzing |
Malicious service provider or attacker with ability to inject radio packets | |||||
| 3 | Bug in Web Telephony stack leads to code execution vulnerability | A web page could supply malicious data to an API, triggering an exploitable crash. | \* Code review
\* Fuzzing \* Limiting access to API||Malicious web content||||||||||\*Dangerous since it involves privileged code | ||||||
| 3 | Content spoofing phones dialer app | Webpage or app masquerades as the dialer for a complex phishing attack | \*Sort of a broader B2G issue (all apps could be spoofed)
\* Only high-privileged content process will have access to send dialer IPDL messages||Malicious web content|||||||||| | ||||||
| 4 | Content framing the dialer app | If content could frame the dialer app, or load it in a manner where it was obscured, malicious content might be able to induce the user to make a call. | \* Broader B2G issue
\* Only high-privileged content process will have access to send dialer IPDL messages||Malicious web content|||||||||| |
