#carhacking — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #carhacking, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Bought a #Mercedes #48V #MHEV #startergenerator for #reverseengineering.
    The specs are impressive, especially for the price point of a few hundred euros.

    - 48V / ~200A
    - 12.5 kW peak
    - 165 Nm peak

    The main difficulty lies in finding out the #CAN commands for initialization and control.

    I don't have access to a Mercedes E200 EQ Boost (or similar), so "just sniffing" is out.
    Maybe somebody could help me with that tho? ^^'

  2. Latest #Wireshark nightlies have a heuristic HSFZ dissector that come enabled by default. I hope it does not cause too much trouble so that it can remain enabled. May be useful for you people into #carhacking and for BMW petrolheads ;)

    #scapy is also in the works, and more to come... :D

  5. this damn CAN bus installed on my desk does not compute! I'm actually considering writing my own parser...

  6. Trying to send some #CAN messages to the #startergenerator didn't prove successful either.
    I'm not well versed in CAN, but the dongle just kept trying to send the single message on repeat.
    So I guess it didn't receive a CAN ACK?
    Afaik, all transceivers in a bus should ACK a frame, no matter if they're addressed or not.

    Not sure why it didn't work. Maybe I was on the wrong baud rate or this device behaves weirdly and only sends ACKs after getting a magic message?

  15. mais c’est quoi cette histoire?! 🤔

    franceinfo.fr/faits-divers/un-

    En 🇫🇷, on parle de vols « facilités par l’utilisation d’une enceinte musicale reprogrammée ».

    En 🇮🇹, les carabinieri évoquent des dispositivi capaci di avviare autovetture senza chiavi codificate. bref, des outils capables de démarrer une voiture sans clé codée.

    rainews.it/tgr/sicilia/articol

    Sur la vidéo filmé par les carabinieri dans le labo clandestins palermitain , on voit des clés, des boîtiers ECU et modules issus du tableau de bord démontés…

    ...mais pas de Flipper en vue :)

  16. 🚨 Security researcher Eaton Zveare uncovered critical flaws in a major US carmaker's dealer portal that allowed remote unlocking of cars, data theft & control over 1,000 dealers' systems—all from a web browser! 🔐🚗 Patch applied after DEF CON report. Stay alert! #Cybersecurity #CarHacking #DEFCON33 cyberinsider.com/web-portal-fl

  17. 🚨 A team of white-hat hackers just revealed a chilling remote hack on the 2020 Nissan LEAF! Using Bluetooth & DNS attacks, they gained full control-from steering to surveillance-without physical access. This exposes serious risks in EV security. Stay updated & cautious! 🔐🚗 #CyberSecurity #NissanLEAF #EVHack #BluetoothVulnerability #CarHacking #InfoSec #BlackHatAsia2025 #newz

  18. Car hacking community, is there an android app I can use to send custom OBD commands via a Bluetooth dongle.

    I use Leafspy for my car and other OBD apps, but I want to try sending some custom / manual commands.

    Unfortunately my Mac doesn't want to play ball with my adapter either.

  20. That was due to happen. Imho, car networks aren't properly secured. Idk why vendors aren't already using cryptography for the important parts of the system (From what I know, it's used for ECU programming, but not for the runtime part).

  22. Etwas anders funktioniert das bei den Modellen von #BMW, #Honda, #Rover und #Toyota. Hier mussten die Forscher*innen lediglich #HTTP-Anfragen mit der Fahrzeug-Identifikationsnummer (#FIN) an den Endpoint schicken. Diese Nummer kann man bei vielen Modellen durch die #Windschutzscheibe von außen ablesen. Darüber gelangten sie eigenen Angaben zufolge an persönliche Daten der Fahrzeughalter*innen wie Namen und Telefonnummern.
