Der Spiegel: Location information of 800,000 electric Volkswagen vehicles was available online due to a data leak.
The leak reportedly stemmed from the software running inside Volkswagen vehicles and could've allowed a bad actor to trace a driver’s exact movements.
Cariad, the Volkswagen subsidiary behind the automaker's software, made it possible for an attacker to access driver data housed in Amazon 's cloud storage service.
