(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home4/scienrds/scienceandnerds/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Source: https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/8\/15\/23306650\/def-con-hacker-john-deere-tractors-run-doom-right-to-repair<\/a> The internet has shown us that Doom <\/em>can run on everything from a cardboard box<\/a> to a Roomba<\/a> and even a single keyboard key<\/a>, but now we can add a John Deere tractor to that list. Security researcher Sick Codes<\/a> worked with Doom<\/em> modder Skelegant to get the game running on a John Deere tractor display and showed off some gameplay at the Def Con hacking conference in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n In the video posted by Sick Codes<\/a>, you can see how the game plays as a sort of transparent overlay on top of the John Deere user interface (UI). Sick Codes says the whole process took months<\/a> and involved jailbreaking the Linux system used by the John Deere 4240 tractor. This version of Doom<\/em> has, naturally, been modified to take place in a corn field, where the player mows down enemies on a tractor. <\/p>\n With epic just-in-time help by NZ based doom modder @Skelegant<\/a>. She helped get this run using DeHacked Doom, since gzdoom was a mission. Together, we teamed up to make this happen. She is amazingly talented. pic.twitter.com\/OfVDMvRhzR<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Sick.Codes (@sickcodes) August 14, 2022<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n But Sick Codes isn\u2019t just jailbreaking tractors to get them to run Doom<\/em>. According to a report from Wired<\/em><\/a>, he also devised and presented a new jailbreak that gave him root access to the tractor\u2019s system. This exploit could potentially help farmers bypass software blocks that prevent them from repairing the tractor themselves, something John Deere has come under fire for in the past<\/a>.<\/p>\n As noted by Wired<\/em>, Sick Codes was able to obtain \u201c1.5 GB worth of logs\u201d that dealers could use to identify and diagnose problems. But he also found a way to gain root access by soldering controllers directly to the tractor\u2019s circuit board. Unfortunately, gaining root access isn\u2019t all that simple without the right equipment, but Sick Codes told Wired<\/em> \u201cit would be possible to develop a tool based on the vulnerabilities to more easily execute the jailbreak.\u201d<\/p>\n
