In the new generation of cars, the door or contact is no longer available switch on and off there is not much left, many cars electronicto the locks and has one button operation. While this feature makes life easier, it is obviously not perfect.
two researchers, Honda vehicles In his research into the keyless lock system, he revealed a vulnerability in the system. Moreover, this problem is not easy to solve. Worse, this feature may be available in several models, especially Honda models.
Vulnerability in Honda cars
Researchers Kevin26000 and Wesley Lic The company’s statement also explained how the vulnerability called RollingPWN works. Accordingly, Honda’s keyless lock system normally generates an access code every time a button is pressed. When a code is created under normal circumstances, all previously created codes are made unusable. Similar with repeating codes systems are not accessible. Researchers have shown that old code can be reloaded so that unwanted people can access the tools.
Researchers looking to reveal which models the deficit affects 2012 of 2022 He worked on 10 different models produced between the years of These models were as follows:
Honda Civic 2012
Honda XR-V 2018
Honda CR-V 2020
Honda Accord 2020
Honda Odyssey 2020
Honda Inspire 2021
Honda Fit 2022
Honda Civic 2022
Honda VE-1 2022
Honda Breeze 2022
It won’t be easy to fix
According to the researchers who discovered this vulnerability, he states that this problem can occur not only in these models, but also in all cars that use a similar infrastructure, especially other Honda models. The solution of the problem also creates another dilemma. Because the first solution to the problem can be seen as: OTA updateis not a viable alternative for many Honda models. It also seems unlikely that millions of vehicles will be recalled.
This shortage isn’t the first problem Honda has faced this year, either. In March It turned out that the radio frequencies could be infiltrated into the company’s cars and these frequencies could be changed. A similar one in January Contactmanipulation deficiency emerged.
