Description | A couple of Italian researchers discover, when analyzing the software of the multimedia system of a Kia Ceed, a vulnerability that allows them to execute malware – a malicious program – inside the system and, in addition, send instructions through CAN-BUS – the network that intercommunicates elements such as sensors and control units in a car- to manipulate certain functions – such as altering the audio volume, activating the rear view camera or loading routes in the navigator – without having to touch the touch screen or the controls of the multimedia device. | |
