“Do not let Samy Kamkar near your car. Kamkar has built a new device that is about the size of a wallet and can intercept the codes used to unlock most cars and many garage doors. The device can be hidden underneath a vehicle and when the owner approaches and hits the unlock button on her key or remote, the device grabs the unique code sent by the remote and stores it for later use. The device is built from about $30 in hardware, Kamkar said, and he plans to reveal more details about it at DEF CON here Friday. The attack he developed also works on garage door openers that use rolling codes.”
