Re: Good interview

I totally agree, I have really enjoyed reading this. A respectful and informative exchange of questions and answers that brings some insights into the design process of a mass-market product that used to be everywhere.

I feel a bit less stupid now :-)

Re: Is the "Java machine" up to date?

I don't think JavaCard VMs are upgradeable once in the field... we are talking about smart cards here, where most code is in ROM.

I guess the SIM issuers (i.e. mobile operators) are the party most interested in not having this vulnerability.
