View SlidesThis hack has a story: I organize a Capture The Flag dedicated to IoT, called Ph0wn (https://ph0wn.org). For that CTF, we try to have at each edition a few visual and/or real hacks in challenges. So, I bought an affordable connected coffee machine and then, the difficult part begins: investigate it and find something that can be turned into an interesting CTF challenge. After some time, I got lucky and identified a feature which is not available from the official connected mobile application: customize the size of coffee cups.
This talk is about hacking a Bluetooth Low Energy coffee maker. The hacks are more substantial than just listing the exposed BLE services and characteristics, because the coffee machine features an authorization mechanism, with a rolling code, which is not common on BLE devices.
