"Vulnerability Exposed Tesla Central Touchscreen to DoS Attacks"

Researchers have discovered a flaw in Tesla Model 3's web interface.  Tesla Model 3's web interface has a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.  To exploit the vulnerability, a user would have to go to a malicious webpage.  If the user went to a webpage that was compromised, using the central display, it could allow the attackers to disable the speedometer, web browser, climate controls, turn signals, navigation, autopilot notifications, and blinker notifications along with other miscellaneous functions from the main screen.  The user would still be able to drive the car.  The researchers have notified Tesla, and Tesla has since patched the flaw.
