> The bad news is that the research team also analyzed 34 fast-charging chips, around which the fast charger models had been built. Researchers said that 18 chip vendors did not ship chips with a firmware update option, meaning there was no way to update the firmware on some fast charger chips. Isn't this a good thing? If you can't update the firmware you can't infect it. Conversely, if you still can infect it via some vulnerability then the same technique can be used to "infect" it with fixed firmware.
