OT: First car computer virus
Had to happen sooner or later...
Mobile virus infects Lexus cars Lexus cars may be vulnerable to viruses that infect them via mobile phones. Landcruiser 100 models LX470 and LS430 have been discovered with infected operating systems that transfer within a range of 15 feet. --------- Something to keep in perspective when you're DME *****s the bed.... |
Was wondering when this would finally happen!
|
If the BSOD doesn't get ya, the virus will.
|
thats why i drive a car from 1985. Aint no tryin to fumble with mah DME biyatch!!
Wilk should get his chips encrypted just in case tho :D |
Speaking of Wilk, has anyone heard from him yet???
|
Ohh that sucks, Im sure we will start getting harmmered at the Toyota dealer I work at, cant what to see the TSB on this one
|
Reccommended Maintenence Intervals:
30,000 Miles - Update Virus Definitions |
Yea I can see it now, We will need to get updated scan tools with virus protection and then start downloading Toyota virus protection. You know whats real bad is if they make a virus that can use the new CAN interface, Its links all the systems in the car!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Easily fixed. Completely isolate the parts with the bluetooth connection from contact with the other systems. It won't impact the ability to computerise the powertrain management.
