That would potentially allow miscreants to take over or interfere with the operation of the vehicle to at least some degree.<\/p>\n<p>There are 14 bugs in total. Seven have been assigned standard CVE ID numbers: CVE-2018-9322, CVE-2018-9320, CVE-2018-9312, CVE-2018-9313, CVE-2018-9314, CVE-2018-9311, and CVE-2018-9318. Other flaws are awaiting CVE assignments.<\/p>\n<p>Four require physical USB access \u2013 you need to plug a booby-trapped gadget into a USB port \u2013 or access to the ODB diagnostics port. That means an attacker has to be inside your vehicle to exploit them. Six can be exploited remotely, from outside the car, with at least one via Bluetooth, which is super bad. Another four require physical or &#8220;indirect&#8221; physical access to the machine.<\/p>\n<p>Of those 14, eight affect the internet-connected infotainment unit that plays music, media, and other stuff to the driver and passengers. Four affect the telematics control system. Two affect the wireless communications hardware.<\/p>\n<p>Forgive us if the details seem vague: Tencent is withholding all the nitty-gritty until people have had a chance to update their wagons. Below is a summary of the bugs that were uncovered and reported:<\/p>\n<div class=\"CaptionedImage Center\" readability=\"11\"><a href=\"https:\/\/regmedia.co.uk\/2018\/05\/23\/table_tencent_bmw_vulnerabilities.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/regmedia.co.uk\/2018\/05\/23\/table_tencent_bmw_vulnerabilities.jpg?x=648&amp;y=556&amp;infer_y=1\" alt=\"Table of security flaws found in BMWs by Tencent\" title=\"Table of security flaws found in BMWs by Tencent\" height=\"556\" width=\"648\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"text_center\">Tencent&#8217;s table of vulnerabilities found in BMW vehicles &#8230; HU_NBT is the internet-connected infotainment system, TCB is the telematics control, BDC is a wireless communications module<br \/>Click to enlarge<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"promo_article\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/regmedia.co.uk\/2016\/11\/17\/shutterstock_robot_car2.jpg?x=174&amp;y=115&amp;crop=1\" width=\"174\" height=\"115\" alt=\"Robot drives a car.

Its software is based on Qualcomm&#8217;s REX OS realtime operating system.<\/p>\n<p>The telematics control unit handles contact with the BMW service network, meaning the researchers could trigger BMW Remote Services with arbitrary messages though a simulated GSM network. Meanwhile, the worst telematics unit bug is described thus:<\/p>\n<p>The researchers also said they found ways to \u201cinfluence the vehicle via different kinds of attack chains,\u201d which ultimately let them send \u201carbitrary diagnostic messages to the ECUs [Engine Control Units].&#8221; And there&#8217;s a lack of defenses protecting things like diagnostics, they wrote, reproduced unedited:<\/p>\n<p>What the researchers only describe as a \u201cbackdoor\u201d in the infotainment unit \u2013 the most common vulnerabilities to carry this description are either admin accounts with no password or a default password, or accounts configured with hardcoded credentials, but the document doesn&#8217;t specify this \u2013 means a USB connection can get past the infotainment unit to the vehicle&#8217;s K-CAN bus, and from there, can be used to attack individual devices, such as the engine controller.<\/p>\n<p>The infotainment unit is also at risk of over-the-air Bluetooth-borne attacks. Under controlled conditions, the Tencent researchers said they could also wirelessly hijack the car&#8217;s hardware via the cellular phone network, adding that \u201ca malicious backdoor can inject controlled diagnosis messages to the CAN buses in the vehicle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The vulnerabilities were confirmed in the BMW i3, X1, 525Li and 730Li models the researchers tested, but bugs in the telematics control unit would affect \u201cBMW models which equipped with this module produced from year 2012.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>BMW was able to send over-the-air updates to fix some bugs, we&#8217;re told, but others will need patches through the dealer network, which explains why the researchers are withholding their full technical report to March 2019.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve asked BMW for further comment. \u00ae<\/p>\n<p class=\"wptl btm\"><span>Sponsored:<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/go.theregister.co.uk\/tl\/1759\/shttp:\/\/www.mcubed.london\/\">Minds Mastering Machines &#8211; Call for papers now open<\/a><\/p>\n<p>READ MORE <a href=\"http:\/\/go.theregister.com\/feed\/www.theregister.co.uk\/2018\/05\/23\/bmw_security_bugs\/\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How much to hack a flash motor?
