For the past 5 years we have been presenting ways to hack and root vacuum robots at various events like the c3 or the DEFCON. In all these cases it covered vacuum robots by Roborock, Dreame, Xiaomi and some smaller companies.
However, did we ever take a look at other vendors and maybe some new interesting device classes? In this talk we do exactly that, and will take a deep dive into Ecovacs robots!
We will present the result of the research that started back in 2018. Explore with us the development on the last years. How did the security and privacy of our mystery vendors change in contrast to other companies? What kind of cool hardware is out there? Can the devices be used to potentially spy on you?
Learn how reverse engineering works and how to get root access on the devices. Let us show you how you maintain persistence on the devices and run your own software.
Come with us on a journey of having fun hacking interesting devices while exploring bad oversights and real problems. You will be surprised what we found. Let's discuss together what impact this devices will have on our (social) life and what the future of vacuum robot hacking will bring.

Hardware hacking tooling for the new iPhone generation If you've followed the iPhone hacking scene you probably heard about cables such as the Kanzi Cable, Kong Cable, Bonobo Cable, and so on: Special cables that allow access to hardware debugging features on Lightning-based iPhones such as UART and JTAG. However with the iPhone 15, all of those tools became basically useless: USB-C is here, and with that we need new hardware and software tooling. This talk gives you a brief history of iPhone ...

Tesla's driving assistant has been subject to public scrutiny for good and bad: As accidents with its "full self-driving" (FSD) technology keep making headlines, the code and data behind the onboard Autopilot system are well-protected by the car manufacturer. In this talk, we demonstrate our voltage-glitching attack on Tesla Autopilot, enabling us root privileges on the system.

Imagine discovering a zero-click attack targeting Apple mobile devices of your colleagues and managing to capture all the stages of the attack. That’s exactly what happened to us! This led to the fixing of four zero-day vulnerabilities and discovering of a previously unknown and highly sophisticated spyware that had been around for years without anyone noticing. We call it Operation Triangulation. We've been teasing this story for almost six months, while thoroughly analyzing every stage of ...

Elektronische Arbeitsunfähigkeitsbescheinigungen (eAU), Arztbriefe, medizinische Diagnosen, all diese sensiblen Daten werden heute mittels KIM – Kommunikation im Gesundheitswesen – über die Telematikinfrastruktur (TI) verschickt. Aber ist der Dienst wirklich sicher? Wer kann die Nachrichten lesen, wo werden die E-Mails entschlüsselt und wie sicher ist die KIM-Software? Im Live-Setup einer Zahnarztpraxis haben wir Antworten auf diese Fragen gesucht.

This talk will present details of the TETRA:BURST vulnerablities - the result of the first public in-depth security analysis of TETRA (Terrestrial Trunked Radio): a European standard for trunked radio globally used by government agencies, police, military, and critical infrastructure relying on secret cryptographic algorithms which we reverse-engineered and published in August 2023. Adding to our initial disclosure, this talk will present new details on our deanonymization attack and provide ...

We present an analysis and recovery method for files encrypted by Black Basta, the "second most used ransomware in Germany". We analysed the behaviour of a ransomware encryptor and found that the malware uses their keystream wrongly, rendering the encryption vulnerable to a known-plaintext attack which allows for recovering affected files. We confirmed the finding by implementing tools for recovering encrypted files. We have made our tools for decrypting files without access to the actual key ...
