I've been watching flipper since it was announced. I should probably buy one and play with it.
All this is going to do is increase sales of the thing and probably increase the number of "kids" trying to break into cars. Streisand effect ftw.
I have one.
Its fun.
But on the subject of rolling codes, I was able to get through a security gate that relies on, essentially, a garage door opener.
The exploit relied on the ridiculously low amount of rolling codes it cycled through.
Capture one, and try it a few times to get through.
Cars are more robust. Despite tinkering with it for about 8 hours, I wasn't successful with defeating it. That being said, I picked up the device, in part, to start messing around with various signals as an educational tool.
I really should get one. I should also grab the latest version of kali (if that's still around), I haven't played with that in a long time.
It is: https://www.kali.org/get-kali/
I should add this and flipper to the list of things to play with at some point soon.
Kali is still around, I last did an install ~6 months ago, I think?
That got put on the back burner though, not because of the flipper, just life.
