<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>London: German security researcher<\/a> Stack Smashing said that he was able to \"break into the microcontroller of the AirTag<\/a>\" and modified elements of the item tracker software.

Apple<\/a>AAirTag is a small iPhone<\/a> accessory that helps keep track of and find the items that matter most with Apple's Find My app.

Apple is well known for having high levels of security built into its products, which has led to the new AirTags becoming a target for security researchers, AppleInsider reported.

After a few hours and the destruction of multiple tags in the process, the security researcher made firmware dumps and eventually discovered the microcontroller could be reflashed, the report said.

In short, the researcher proved it was possible to alter the programming of the microcontroller, to change how it functions.

An initial demonstration showed an AirTag with a modified NFC URL that, when scanned with an iPhone, displays a custom URL instead of the usual \"found.apple.com\" link.

While only in its early stages, the research shows that it takes a lot of know-how and effort to hack AirTag in the first place.

During a demonstration video, the modified AirTag is shown attached to cables, which are claimed to provide just power to the device.

Given that AirTag relies on the secure Find My network for its Lost Mode to function, it seems likely that Apple would roll out some form of server-side defense against any maliciously modified versions, the report said.

Since its launch, a hidden debug mode has been found in AirTag, providing developers with considerably more information than users would normally need about the device's hardware, it added.

苹果AirTag黑客安全研究员:报告

几小时后,多个标签的破坏在这个过程中,安全研究人员使固件转储并最终发现了可以采用单片机,该报告说。

伦敦:德国安全研究人员堆栈砸说他可以“进入单片机的AirTag“项目跟踪和修改元素的软件。

苹果AAirTag是一个小iPhone附件可以帮助跟踪并找到最重要的项目与苹果的找到我的应用程序。

苹果是众所周知的有高水平的安全产品,导致新AirTags成为安全研究人员的目标,AppleInsider报道。

几小时后,多个标签的破坏在这个过程中,安全研究人员使固件转储并最终发现了可以采用单片机,该报告说。

总之,研究者证明可以改变单片机的编程,改变它的功能。

初步演示显示一个AirTag修改NFC URL,在扫描iPhone时,显示一个自定义URL而不是通常的“found.apple.com”链接。

只有处于初期阶段,但研究表明,需要大量的技术和努力破解AirTag放在第一位。

在演示视频中,修改AirTag显示连接到电缆,声称提供电力设备。

鉴于AirTag依赖于安全找到我失去网络模式功能,似乎苹果将推出某种形式的服务器端防御任何恶意修改版本,该报告说。

自推出以来,已发现一个隐藏的调试模式在AirTag,为开发人员提供更多的信息比用户通常需要对设备的硬件,它补充说。
