Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Musk's FSD (fully autopilot) was cracked again, and this time the hackers found the "hidden mode".

Interestingly, the hacker found in the code that Musk named it "Elon mode" after himself.

Tests have found that in Elon mode, turning on autopilot does not require a hand steering wheel.

Normally, the test version of FSD requires the driver to keep his hands on the steering wheel and keep his eyes focused.

Once the system detects that the hand is off the steering wheel or out of sight, a safety reminder will be issued and will be disqualified after up to five times.

After the hacker cracked, the hacker drove 600 miles without receiving a security alert.

Hacker Green said that the "Elon mode" is a function of Tesla himself, and he just discovered and opened the entrance to this hidden function.

However, Green has no comment on the specific mode of entry.

With regard to the name "Elon mode", some netizens joked, "is it possible to tweet automatically when you step on the pedal?"

More seriously, it is discussing whether the system can achieve L3-level autopilot.

For six years, he focused on Tesla cracking the hacker named Green and began to focus on Tesla's cracking since 2017.

Before that, Green has exposed some safety problems of Tesla's products.

For example, there is a huge risk of privacy disclosure in the security loophole of the Model3 / Y camera.

Through this loophole, lawbreakers can crack the camera in the car and see the scene inside the car.

In addition to software cracking, hardware is also within the scope of Green research.

Green once said on social media:

What's the first thing to do after you get a new Tesla?

Tear it down, of course!

Earlier this year, Green exposed the disassembly photos of Tesla's newly developed HW (hardware) 4.0.

Tesla did not make an official announcement on the HW4, so he loaded it directly into the newly produced car.

But Green still found this, and announced the news of HW4 on February 16 before the Tesla conference.

In addition to the product itself, as long as it is the safety of Tesla, it is the concern of Green.

A few years ago, there was a high-profile discovery that Tesla abandoned media equipment was at risk of privacy disclosure.

He found that the sensitive data in the old car media equipment recycled by Tesla had not been completely destroyed.

After processing, these old devices still contain private information about their former owners, and old devices can be bought at a very low price.

As a white hat hacker, Green in addition to announcing some new features to the public, the more important purpose of cracking is to attract the attention of Tesla.

And as a result, Tesla has indeed made a lot of improvements on the security issue.

For example, after cracking FSD this time, Green said that he found that Tesla's security system was much better than in 2017.

FSD security alerts have been complained about Tesla FSD's security reminder mechanism has received widespread complaints.

Green this crack is bypassing the focus detection system after this.

The frequency of testing reminders too frequently makes the experiencer feel "nagging".

What is more fatal is that as long as you get distracted five times, you will lose your qualification to use FSD.

It would be nice if FSD is right, but misjudgments are all too common.

For example, when the driver is wearing a hat, the gaze detection system may assume that the driver is not looking squarely at the road ahead, thus triggering the warning mechanism.

Just because of wearing a hat, you can't use FSD before you finish a trip. Who can bear it?

But Musk seemed to have hinted in December that a nag-free-free FSD model was coming, according to TheVerge.

Are you looking forward to experiencing FSD where you can let go of your hands and eyes?
