Hackers from TU Berlin managed to jailbreak #Tesla cars, unlocking software-locked features worth up to $15,000 🪓🪓🪓
They used a known (unpatchable) voltage fault injection attack against the AMD Secure Processor to glitch the boot process, got root, and retrieved the car's RSA private key 👌

@jomo This looks like a clickbait, the article contradicts the headline:
This includes features like heated seats, acceleration boost, and even Tesla’s Full Self-Driving package, which costs $15,000
Ultimately, the hackers believe that they can unlock virtually all software-locked features inside Tesla vehicles even Full Self-Driving – though they believe that it would require some more reverse-engineering
Doesn’t seem like they actually unlocked it, they just think that it’s technically possible.
