Plugging into a public EV charger could brick your Tesla in 14 minutes. Worse, you could unknowingly help destabilize the grid. Here's how.

The article from MSN Autos discusses a significant security vulnerability in electric vehicles (EVs) that could potentially allow hackers to "brick" an EV, rendering it inoperable, in just 14 minutes by exploiting the charging process. This vulnerability was discovered by researchers at the Technical University of Berlin, who demonstrated that by tampering with the charging cable, hackers could gain access to the vehicle's systems. The attack involves manipulating the communication between the EV and the charging station, which could lead to unauthorized control over the vehicle's functions. This revelation raises concerns about the cybersecurity of EVs, especially as their adoption increases, and underscores the need for enhanced security measures in the design and operation of electric vehicles and their charging infrastructure.
