Unauthorized Access and Remote Vehicle Control via Dealer Portal Vulnerability

769After Incident
CRITICAL-4
VOL207081225
A severe vulnerability in the automaker's dealer portal allowed unauthorized attackers to register dealer accounts, escalate privileges to national administrator, and remotely control vehicles. The flaw, stemming from hidden registration forms and weak session token management, enabled attackers to transfer car ownership and send remote commands via the vehicle enrollment API. This exposed all vehicles from 2012 onward with telematics modules, posing significant risks to customer safety and data integrity. The automaker has since patched the issue with stricter token validation and role-based access controls.
