- High-end racing bike hacking exposes vulnerabilities in wireless gear-shifting systems, potentially threatening events like the Tour de France.
- Researchers from UC San Diego and Northeastern University identified cybersecurity risks associated with Shimano Di2 technology, the leading wireless gear-shifting system.
- The vulnerabilities allow attackers to manipulate gear shifts or jam operations, posing risks of crashes or injuries during races.
- Attacks can be executed from up to 10 meters away using off-the-shelf devices, enabling targeted disruptions to individual bikes.
- Shimano is collaborating with researchers to address these security issues and has begun implementing suggested countermeasures.
