Hackers Can Remotely Trigger the Brakes on American #Trains and the Problem Has Been Ignored for Years

"Many trains in the U.S. are vulnerable to a hack that can remotely lock a train’s brakes, according to the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the researcher who discovered the vulnerability. The railroad industry has known about the vulnerability for more than a decade but only recently began to fix it.

Independent researcher Neil Smith first discovered the vulnerability, which can be exploited over radio frequencies, in 2012.

“All of the knowledge to generate the exploit already exists on the internet. AI could even build it for you,” Smith told 404 Media. “The physical aspect really only means that you could not exploit this over the internet from another country, you would need to be some physical distance from the train [so] that your signal is still received.”

Smith said that a hacker who knew what they were doing could trigger the brakes from a distance."
