Two researchers demonstrated at the Black Hat conference their ability to not only unlock a Subaru Outback but start up its engine using only an Android smartphone and some creative programming. They used a technique called “war texting” to intercept the password used by the car they hijacked although industry officials claim that is not supposed to be possible. The demonstration presents the possibility that car thieves will trade up for keyboards and smartphones, gaining entry to the newest models that haven’t been properly programmed to prevent hackers from gaining access.
