"Tesla Cars Vulnerable to Unlocking and Theft via Flipper Zero WiFi Attack"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by BleepingComputer
Security researchers have discovered that a Flipper Zero device can be used to execute a phishing attack on Tesla accounts, allowing attackers to unlock and steal cars. By creating a fake Tesla Guest WiFi network, the attacker can trick victims into entering their credentials, enabling them to add a new Phone Key and gain control of the vehicle. Despite the researchers' recommendations for improved security measures, Tesla has stated that the current process is intended behavior and does not require a key card for authentication.
