Automotive cybersecurity is becoming increasingly important as electric vehicles face new vulnerabilities. In this episode, we explore a major flaw discovered in the EVerest open-source charging firmware, which could allow attackers to take control of charging stations and potentially compromise vehicles themselves. This vulnerability serves as a stark reminder of the importance of securing EV charging systems as part of the broader electric vehicle infrastructure.

As electric vehicles become more integrated with smart grids and other technologies, their cybersecurity risks grow. Vulnerabilities like this one could have serious implications not only for individual vehicles but also for entire charging networks and infrastructure. We discuss the technical details of the vulnerability, how it could be exploited, and what steps need to be taken to secure these systems.

This episode offers essential information for anyone in the EV manufacturing space, as well as those interested in the cutting-edge developments of automotive cyber defense. Don’t miss this important conversation on protecting electric vehicles and the charging systems that power them from the next generation of cyber threats.
