Three experts. IT security made use hole zero-day and excluded airbags in the Audi TT. Error found in third-party software, which is widely used in diagnostic computers used in garages. Andras Szijj, Levente Buttyan from the company CrySyS Lab and Zsolt Szalay from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics indicate that to carry out a successful attack on a car, it is necessary or prior manipulation of diagnostic computer in a garage or connect to the car the clip stick.

An attacker can take control of the vehicle’s diagnostic system and enable or disable individual items without the owner’s knowledge. Buttyan emphasizes that the error does not lie in the software Audi, but the program compatible with vehicles. Similar problems have already been found in other programs used eg. By car dealers.
