IT-Security researchers have discovered multiple vulnerabilities in the infotainment units used in some Skoda cars that could allow malicious actors to remotely trigger certain controls and track the car’s location in real time.

PCAutomotive, a cybersecurity firm specializing in the automotive sector, unveiled 12 new security vulnerabilities impacting the latest model of the Skoda Superb III sedan. This comes a year after the organization disclosed 9 other vulnerabilities affecting the same model. Skoda is a car brand owned by German automobile giant Volkswagen. The vulnerabilities, discovered in the vehicle’s MIB3 infotainment unit, could allow attackers to achieve unrestricted code execution and run malicious code every time the unit starts. This could let an attacker obtain live vehicle GPS coordinates and speed data, record conversations via the in-car microphone, take screenshots of the infotainment display and play arbitrary sounds in the car. The researchers noted that the vulnerable MIB3 units are used in multiple Volkswagen and Skoda models, and based on public sales data, estimates there are potentially more than 1.4 million vulnerable vehicles out there.
