The Jeep Cherokee hack gets worse — at least if hackers can get physical access to the car first

The duo that hacked a Jeep Cherokee a year ago is back. The hacks can now take over more of the car, but only via physical access, such as via a laptop connected physically to the car’s OBD-II (on-board diagnostics) port. This time around, the hackers were able to mess with the ECU (engine control unit), work the steering wheel at speed, increase cruise control settings, or activate an electronic parking brake. The hacks of 2015 were less dangerous, but they were accomplished remotely. Still, there’s cause for concern here, which we’ll explain shortly.
