Gaining unauthorised entry to someone else's car is illegal. Jamming is illegal in the UK. It might be illegal where you live too.
Car key fobs transmit a binary code to the car over radio. If the car recognises the code it unlocks. There are various systems in place to make that process secure. This video is about the way vulnerabilities in those systems can be exploited. Including replay and rolljam attacks.

    A big advantage of Manchester encoding is that every bit guarantees a transition. This means that your signal contains the data and the data rate clock. As you mentioned that the fob can't maintain a consistent transmit frequency, the same is true for the data clock. Manchester allows the receiver to synchronize the data rate. Also, the transmit signal likely starts with the same start byte (most commonly AA or 55) to allow that receiver to lock onto the signal (timing wise) and also adjust its gain (AGC).

    This is important for magnetic strip credit cards, as an example. The card reader needs to know how quickly you're swiping the card and it uses a standard starting sequence to synchronize. It doesn't matter how fast you swipe the card (within reason) as long as you don't vary the speed and the whole strip goes through the reader.

    Great video! Thanks. It’s worth pointing out that looking at a chip under a microscope to reverse-engineer it is pretty challenging, although not technically impossible if you use mechanical-chemical polishing. Back in 1995 (or thereabouts) when my company at the time was working with something like 2-micron fabrication technology, I was able to diagnose a power-drain by eye-droppering a liquid-crystal solution onto a chip to find the hot spot on the chip. However, even at 2 microns, the image was pretty blurry. 2 microns is about 4 times the smallest wavelength for visible light, so it’s possible, but difficult, to image the chip. Nowadays though, when the features approaching 1/100 the shortest wavelength of visible light, you pretty much have to use electron microscopes, which only show you the surface. So, to see the internal structure, you have to extremely precisely polish off layer by layer, re-imaging each layer. That’s definitely possible, yes, but very difficult.

    10:19 I think it would have been good to mention here how jamming works in this case. If you are sending out a jamming signal to the car on the broad spectrum, you are not jamming the airwaves so much as you are jamming the equipment. You are causing the car to process useless signals - meaning that the car has no processing power left at that time to process the real signal. You are essentially flooding the car with bad signals, keeping its computer occupied while you listen out for the good signal.

    Actually it has little to do with processing power. The signal you are jamming with is basically noise to the car, and if that noise is "louder" that the actual signal from the key, then all the car "hears" is that noise. It's like trying to have a conversation next to a jet taking off - your voice and the jet engine emit different frequencies, but since your ears listen to the whole frequency range, the jet completely overpowers, but a microphone with a frequency response tuned to the frequency of your voice could hear you.

Keys were already code-hopping before the end of the 90s, I think, and your Mini had rolljam projection in 07. I put an aftermarket remote on my Peugot 309 around 03, but I didn't care if it was a good one because it was an 80s 5-door hatch & not even the latest model. Bit of a street sleeper, that one; remarkably fun to drive.

    Didn't mention a relay attack which works with modern fobs with passive unlock (where you can walk to the car and just open the door so long as you have the fob). Two thieves park near a restaurant and observes patrons entering. When they observe a car they want one of them follows the target into the restaurant and walks near them with a transceiver. His partner walks to the car (from which they observed the targets exit from) with the paired transceiver which then relays the passive code from the fob via his partners relay transceiver and the perp opens the door and drives off.

    Social engineering: Use your SDR to be receiving. Make an app or script or whatever, so that every time a signal is received it plays an interesting sound clip. Each one is different, and after introducing it everyone will try theirs to see what noise it makes. For example, having a party at home, say "watch this" and get out my key fob, show them when I press the button, an old-fashond "auuuuuga" horn sounds from the home theater sound system in surround sound. Much more dramatic than a laptop sound. "Now try yours!"

    The preamble isn't nessecarily saying 'im a key', it's actually pretty standard. Since Manchester encoding guarantees transitions, this preamble is used to synchronise the receiving clock exactly to the right edges so that the important payload doesn't get corrupted.

    Thanks for the very interesting video. One question, the part when you talked about when the hacker jams the signal and having the second box monitor the frequency to be able to get into the car. I was thinking, if the signal is jammed before the driver gets out of their car . When the driver presses the lock button on the fob the car is not going to get that signal and remain unlocked. That is, for a period of time before it auto locks. If the driver did not notice that the car did not lock a potential thief could just walk up to the car and open the door and take whatever was in there.
