It was only a matter of time - Nissan Leaf hack
« on: 24 February 2016, 14:04:01 »
Warning. This post contains elements that some readers may find moronic.  ::)

Just seen this on the BBC website.  It appears that the security layer on the Carwing API is ineffective / not implemented and some bright spark discovered it, informed Nissan  a month ago and they did booger all.about it.

Just switched off my application access and changed the notifications to everything.

So much for heating my seats up remotely for a while :(

Yours,

Still, just think of the extra 30m you can travel by not toasting the derriere

Ah yes, technically this should be in the other section.  Feel free to move it :y

As for hacking my Leaf, I have disabled the app so it's a no go  :P  I have heard a site in Canada has the script available if anyone wants to dice with the Computer Misuse Act ::)

Once they fix it I shall be pentesting the cr@p out of my car :y

+1 ;)
You know those electric rides for kids in the shopping mall,Postman Pats van or the like?
Well the Nissan Leaf is one for grown ups. Every company should have one in the car park for staff to play with during lunch. Pound coin in the slot and away you go.  ;D

Warranty after a passive vulnerability assessment or of the batteries as per previous conversation?
