Original Note:
This headline is misleading. The same article clarifies this is a standard "evil twin" WiFi + phishing attack possible with any WiFi device capable of broadcasting, not a new Flipper Zero exploit. This type of attack has been known for years. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/flipper-zero-wifi-attack-can-unlock-and-steal-tesla-cars/ https://usa.kaspersky.com/resource-center/preemptive-safety/evil-twin-attacks
