Fascinating as the exploit itself is, it makes me wonder how long manufacturers will "support" these newer connected vehicles. Having an outdated smartphone is one thing, you risk your personal data being targeted if the manufacturer decides to no longer support it after a few years - but the risk seems much larger if you've got say, Teslas (though I'm sure it applies to most other vehicles these days), with unpatched, well documented vulnerabilities which could endanger the life of the occupants if exploited. The one saving grace here is perhaps "This attack does not yield drive control of the car"... I'd be fascinated to know what the separation of systems looks like in a modern connected vehicle. I'm assuming it's not likely to be physically possible to gain drive control of the vehicle through its infotainment system?
