Tesla Model 3 hacked in less than 3 seconds
- sebgaj 4y agoWhat bothers me is not that the hack is done in 3min, but the capability to open the front trunk and door while driving
- rickdeckard 4y ago"In the second hack, Synacktiv researchers exploited a heap overflow vulnerability and an out-of-bounds write error in a Bluetooth chipset to break into Tesla's infotainment system and, from there, gain root access to other subsystems." Not really comforting to know that the infotainment system has a way to gain root-access to other subsystems. Established car-manufacturers considered infotainment a foreign untrusted system by definition, at least when I worked with them (which was prior to the merge of A/C controls with Car-Radio), but I imagine this is now called "overengineering". It's like a zero-day exploit allowing you to break out of your in-flight entertainment and take control of the plane-engine. I don't care if you fix the exploit, the fault is in your architecture...
- sebgaj 3y agoFully agree. The architecure design is weak, given the fact that TEE-based approaches allow the hardening of process isolation.
- rickdeckard 4y agoNo need for hyperbole, the actual "less than 2 minutes" from the article are impressive enough
