Security experts have uncovered a configuration vulnerability in certain versions of TeslaMate, inadvertently exposing sensitive data like GPS tracks and charging histories of Tesla vehicles to the internet. This issue arises due to TeslaMate's default configuration, which lacks authentication, compounded by some users employing weak passwords, thus escalating the risk of data breaches. Experts strongly recommend that users take immediate action, including deploying reverse proxies, strengthening access controls, and implementing firewall restrictions, to safeguard against data leakage.
