The demand of attachable smart IoT products for cars is high. One such product is the AutoPi, which connects the car to the internet and allows for various features, usually found in high-end luxury cars.This paper presents an analysis of the cyber security aspects of AutoPi. The findings presented shows that there is a critical vulnerability in the system. The AutoPi can be exploited and full access of the devices can be granted. The paper also discusses what possible harm can be done through the found exploit.
