A vulnerability in the driving interface of Tesla Model 3 vehicles in any release before 2020.4.10 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service by exploiting improper process separation. This enables attackers to disable critical functions such as the speedometer, web browser, climate controls, turn signal visual and sounds, navigation, autopilot notifications, and other miscellaneous functions from the main screen.

This repository contains a proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2020-10558, a denial of service vulnerability affecting the central touchscreen interface of Tesla vehicles (all models) running software versions prior to 2020.4.10. The exploit is implemented as a single HTML file ('tesla_dos_2020-4-10.html') containing JavaScript code that repeatedly calls the browser's history.pushState() function in a loop, causing the browser (and thus the vehicle's interface) to become unresponsive. The README provides background, press coverage, and references to the vulnerability. The attack vector is browser-based: the exploit must be loaded in the Tesla's in-car web browser. No network endpoints or IP addresses are directly targeted, but the exploit references the Tesla vendor homepage and a detailed write-up. The repository is structured simply, with a license, a README, and the exploit HTML file. The exploit demonstrates the vulnerability but does not provide weaponized or customizable payloads.
