Home Current fraud warnings hacker control E-car far: well-known car manufacturers from security hole affected April 15, 2025 at 4:57 p.m. Gerrit Gerbig Powered by Security researchers have discovered serious weaknesses in the software of a well -known car manufacturer.They even enable the vehicle's remote control. If the car is hacked, it can be life -threatening in road traffic.(Source: Reacticom/Depositphotos.com) Cars are being equipped with more and more digital components.Of course, this brings comfort, but also some security risks.Apart from the fact that the technical gimmicks can distract from road traffic, they offer an attack area for hackers.Using an example, the safety researchers of PC automotive have shown the damage that can cause cybercriminals if the vehicle software has vulnerability. At the Black Hacker Conference, Asia 2025 presented the IT experts to their findings.They used a second generation Nissan Leaf for their demonstration.Gaps in the infotainment system also enabled the expansion of the rights and finally the establishment of a hidden remote access via the mobile phone connection. Magnetic fields in e-cars as a health risk: This is what the Federal Office for Radiation Protection Study says. Surprising results The battery of electric cars can trigger magnetic fields.The Federal Office for Radiation Protection has examined whether these are harmful to health - with a surprising result. Risk of privacy and traffic safety The consequences of such a hacker attack would be devastating for several reasons.The attackers can follow the location of the vehicle and manipulate the content of the infotainment display or save them with screenshots.However, privacy can be further violated.Because conversations can be secretly recorded and then played over the loudspeakers of the car. Summer tires: ADAC top value at mileage-60,000 km and now really cheap eBay deal with discount for eBay members there is over 7 euros discount per tire-on a model that not only convinced in the ADAC test with the grade "good", but also scores with heavy mileage. It is more important, however, that the life of inmates of a chopped Nissan Leaf hovers in danger.Physical functions of the vehicle such as doors, wipers, horns, mirrors, windows and even the lighting can be remotely controlled both in the stand and while driving.The worst thing is that attackers can take over the steering of the car. In a YouTube video, the researchers of PC automotive illustrate the effects of the weaknesses, including remote control.

Statement by Nissan As can be seen from PC automotive presentation films from Black 2025, the researchers came across ten security gaps.They are now known as PCA_Inissan_009, PCA_issan_012 and CVE-2025-32056 to CVE-2025-32063.They were reported to Nissan in August 2023. A Nissan spokesman confirmed to SecurityWeek that the company was immediately informed by PC automotive.However, the countermeasures would have taken a lot of time.For safety reasons, the car manufacturer does not want to disclose details of these. Nissan takes the threat very seriously and assure his customers to continuously improve the technologies in order to ward off cyber attacks.It is not yet known whether other Nissan models also have serious weaknesses in addition to the Nissan Leaf.
