DN revealed on Friday a vulnerability of Tele2, which enables you to listen to other people’s voice mail.

The only thing needed is the phone number and a common used network service that simulates the number you want to call from. Tele2’s systems have assumed that it is the correct telephone callers, and provided full access without asking for the code.

”Now it turns out that the same company has security flaws that allows anyone to intercept the voice mail. Talk about the privacy problem”.

Fredrik Hallstan answer:
