Saw video demo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_0tcf-f_II) on youtube. (seclist link (http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2014/Nov/53))
What do you think? Is it just PoC or may have real life implementation?

I'm sure it has potential, there was an article on http://thehackernews.com/2013/07/sim-card-cloning-hack-affect-750.html (http://thehackernews.com/2013/07/sim-card-cloning-hack-affect-750.html) where a guy managed to prove SIM card exploitation via sms and all the major networks simply ignored him, which I found shocking, though he revealed no source code (And he hopes its been fixed) the description on the technique and the glaring security hole should have been a wake up call at the blackhat security conference, but have you seen it on MSM? Me neither.

The best measure I've seen when people ignore you trying to help them with bugs and holes in security is releasing it to the internet.

Dangerous but effective
