"DOOM" can appear on any machine with a screen, even a tractor.
"DOOM" can run on a variety of bizarre platforms, including electronic pregnancy tests, smart refrigerators and ATM cash machines, with strong "multi-platform adaptability". Recently, however, the game has not only successfully landed on the tractor console screen, but also become a representative of foreign farmers'"antitrust".
John Deere is the largest agricultural machinery manufacturer in the United States, mainly producing large machinery for farming, harvesting, weeding and other agricultural uses. with the development of science and technology, the operating terminals of these machinery have evolved from a simple steering wheel joystick to an electronic screen with buttons:
It was a good thing for farmers to have smarter operating systems and tools, but then they found that once these high-tech gadgets broke down, the cost of maintenance was likely to be several times higher.
In the past, if a piece of agricultural machinery broke down, farmers were able to find out the problem with years of operation experience and mechanical knowledge, and even if they could not deal with it directly, they could entrust it to a lower-priced third-party maintenance agency.
But since the replacement of these more sophisticated electronic screens, the tractor that farmers used to be familiar with is now like a strange technology black box, unable to deal with the problem in person, and can only contact the manufacturer of the equipment. Deere is the company to repair the equipment.
Although farmers have long complained about this monopolistic behavior, Deere has always adhered to this design in the name of "software copyright" and "user network security".
As early as 2015, Deere claimed that farmers could not privately repair the company's agricultural equipment because they did not have the copyright to control the software in the tractor. In addition, because these devices collect personal information such as the user's name and farm address, "maintaining the privacy of users" is also the reason why Deere has been refusing third-party maintenance.
But recently, a hacker named "Sickcodes" successfully proved a security flaw in Deere's software system at a DEF CON information security conference in Las Vegas. On the podium, he showed the audience how he root the company's operating system and successfully played "DOOM" on the screen of a tractor.
In addition to the operating system, the hacker said there were also vulnerabilities in Deere's website and App. For example, he could easily retrieve the names and addresses of farmers on the website. In addition to proving the company's incompetence in maintaining software information security, these actions have also given farmers a new hope that they will finally be able to Root the equipment's systems and deal with failures on their own.
The hacker showed his achievements at the conference.
At present, Deere has not issued any further explanation on the incident, but because their products are widely used in the United States, this "cross-platform migration" of "DOOM" will have a huge impact on both farmers and companies.
