Jeep USB hack update
« on: 07 September 2015, 16:53:37 »
Jeep are sending out up to 1.4 million USB sticks with a hack fix.

What next!!

A malicious second USB stick sent to users?  My Dad, assuming he could .exe the stick, would just use it as it is official

There are times when I quite like "simple" cars.

Crikey! Hack their owner database, send out a few sticks containing "OwnMyJeep.exe" to a few punters and wait for them to install it....

They must be relying on the fact that the last car in the world anyone would want to steal is a Jeep. ;D
