Coin-sized device can hack a Boeing 737

A coin-sized device can hack into a Boeing 737's avionics systems, cybersecurity researchers revealed. The exploit targets vulnerabilities in the aircraft's communication networks, allowing attackers to manipulate flight data or disable safety features. Demonstrated at a security conference, the device connects to the plane's wiring via an onboard port, bypassing pilot controls. While the hack requires physical access, experts warn it exposes critical gaps in aviation cybersecurity. Boeing has since issued patches and recommends airlines restrict access to sensitive areas.
