The Model S from Tesla, the electric car, comes with many vulnerabilities that allow the car door to be unlocked and provides access to various controls of the car, said researchers. The flaw means that someone could activate such as the horn, lights and roof through remote control.
Tesla have been told about the bug and those who found it said that it can only be manipulated via high tech manoeuvres and it can be remedied by simply deactivating the remote access function of the vehicle.
The security company who found the issue have been the first to come across the security issue with Tesla cars. However this isn’t the first time that Tesla have come across issues as in March it was found that electric cars of theirs could be located and unlocked thanks to a six character password that could be used remotely.
