Hacking Kia: Remotely Controlling Cars With Just a License Plate

On June 11th, 2024, we discovered a set of vulnerabilities in Kia vehicles that allowed remote control over key functions using only a license plate. These attacks could be executed remotely on any hardware-equipped vehicle in about 30 seconds, regardless of whether it had an active Kia Connect subscription.

    None of those features require the Internet to work

    Yes? They do?

        Lol, okay. Which one?

        LOL literally all of them, unless you’re standing near the car.

        Remember that car manufacturers have the ability to put a SIM card in cars.

        …and they do. That SIM card is useless without internet…

        LOL okay, maybe you’d like to share with the class how any of this works without internet while you’re not near the car?

        Or would you just like to insist over and over that it doesn’t while refusing to explain?
