'By making a tiny sticker-based modification to our speed limit sign, we were able to cause a targeted misclassification of the MobilEye camera,' McAfee researchers said in a blog post.
The analysis of the suspected vulnerability, which spanned 18 months, was run by McAfee researchers Shivangee Trivedi and Steve Povolny.showed how tape could influence Traffic-Aware Cruise Control , which used street signs to help set the car's speed.
"Autonomous vehicle technology will not rely on sensing alone, but will also be supported by various other technologies and data," a spokesperson said. As a result, newer Tesla cars do not use MobilEye technology and researchers note they"do not currently appear to support traffic sign recognition at all."
McAfee researchers found newer Mobileye cameras are not vulnerable to the sticker attack, but noted"the vulnerable version of the camera continues to account for a sizeable installation base among Tesla vehicles." Mobileye has also been contacted for comment.
