SkyJack – autonomous drone hacking

i swear it’s not going to become all drones all the time around here but skyjack is an interesting proof of concept, “…engineered to autonomously seek out, hack, and wirelessly take over other drones within wifi distance, creating an army of zombie drones under your control…” by taking advantage of the fact that none of the 500,000 parrot ar.drones sold since 2010 come with wireless security enabled ( and it looks like the maybe even though it’s running embedded linux the atheros chipset can’t run wep )? whoops.
