Display service interruption via pushState resource exhaustion
Published Mar 20, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Denial of service in Tesla Model 3 driving interfaces before 2020.4.10 allows remote attackers to disable the center display via a webpage. The integrated browser accepts 100,000 history.pushState calls with an ever-growing URL, and improper process separation propagates the resulting failure to the driving interface. The driver must open the crafted URL; the interruption removes the speedometer, climate controls, turn-signal feedback, navigation, and Autopilot notifications from the main screen.
