Software developer cracks Hyundai car encryption with Google search
A developer says he was able to run his own software on his car infotainment hardware after discovering the vehicle's manufacturer had secured its system using keys that were not only publicly known but had been lifted from programming examples.
The IVI accepts firmware updates in the form of password-protected ZIP archives. Feldman downloaded an update ZIP from Hyundai's website and was able to bypass the simple password protection on the archive to access its contents, which included encrypted firmware images for various parts of the IVI. As luck would have it, Feldman found on Mobis's website a Linux setup script that created a suitable ZIP file for performing a system update.
