Reviver

Reviver's digital license plates have a vulnerability that allows for firmware rewriting due to a hardware-level issue in the chips. Jailbreaking the plates could enable the alteration of plate numbers or usage of features like GPS tracking without a subscription, resulting in potential legal repercussions for users and challenges for law enforcement. Reviver was notified of the security flaw, which persists despite warnings, making the plates tamper-prone and possibly implicating innocent individuals in traffic-related offences. The company is working on redesigning the plates to rectify the hardware vulnerability.
