Electric Vehicle (EV) charger hacking is becoming more common as EV technology advances and more charging stations appear on the map.At the Pwn2Own Automotive 2024 event, several electric vehicle (EV) chargers were successfully hacked by participants. In this talk, we will try to dig into one of the targets by doing a teardown and explain how to turn it on for benchtop experiments and security research plus without burning down your house. We will also explain our modification hack escapade which is a different approach from what we learned from Pwn2Own.
