Comment on Ask HN: Does airport fingerprinting compromise my biometric security?parent

It’s an offline attack though — they need to get logic probes between the reader and the CPU — so if the phone locks with a PIN after reboot, magic key press, or a period of time then that’s the appropriate defence.

I'm expecting that if you want to do it at scale (like once a day per airport), you can 3d print them within an hour
