From opening Tesla's charger ports, to hacking truck key fobs and even hotel room card keys the Flipper Zero has done it all. So when I got mine delivered last week, I had to try it on my R1T with the sole purpose of finding out, is the Rivian hackable with this device? Here's what I found
The Card Keys: These are MiFare Desire cards, these use some of the most secure encryption which can't be emulated currently and word on the street is that probably "never".
The Key Fob: I had to look up what frequency does the key fob use to see if i can capture its signal (most u.s key fobs use 315mhz) and Holy smokes batman! Rivian key fobs operate in the 2.4 Ghz range! Thats Bluetooth! So in short the keyfob isn't really a key fob but a mini bluetooth device. Making it not vulnerable to any of the typical key fob replay attacks! Thats amazing if you ask me!
Props to the Rivian security team! Good job folks! Love all the attention to detail in every aspect of this vehicle. Considering this is a v1 product, we can't wait to see what you have in store for us in the years to come!
