The tech used here is the popular Flipper Zero, an ethical hacker’s swiss army knife, capable of all sorts of things such as WiFi attacks or emulating NFC tags. Now, 404 Media has found an underground trade where much shadier hackers sell extra software and patches for the Flipper Zero to unlock all manner of cars, including models popular in the U.S. The hackers say the tool can be used against Ford, Audi, Volkswagen, Subaru, Hyundai, Kia, and several other brands, including sometimes dozens of specific vehicle models, with no easy fix from car manufacturers.
OH you know what’s up for sure then lmao.
Yeah tbh there’s nothing a flipper can do that you can’t do with a better tool, it just rolls a bunch of stuff into a digital swiss army knife of sorts. It’s not something a real car thief would use, maybe someone would use it to break into your car and steal something but a car thief would have something purpose built, or just go low tech if they can. You can run marauder on it too with the wifi board though lol.
Really‽ I couldn’t seem to find any signal when I was sniffing for one at home. Could you point me in the direction of some good documentation? Cause I can’t find nothing but YouTube videos of guys driving around saying “omg ,I pinged them and have all their network info!!1!”
Tbh I haven’t messed too much with it, but there was videos on youtube and in a few repos on github that helped me play around a little. Maybe try justcallmekoko’s repo I think?
