Pwn2Own Vancouver 2023: Zero-Day Exploits Revealed for Tesla Model 3, Windows 11, and macOS
Synacktiv Strikes Gold with Tesla TOCTOU Attack and macOS Privilege Escalation
At Pwn2Own Vancouver 2023, security researchers brought their A-game, demonstrating zero-day exploits and exploit chains for some of the most popular products in enterprise applications, enterprise communications, local escalation of privilege (EoP), server, virtualization, and automotive categories. The event took place between March 22 and March 24, with contestants vying for $1,080,000 in cash and prizes, including a Tesla Model 3 car.
The first day of the contest saw Adobe Reader fall victim to a six-bug logic chain exploit chain that allowed Abdul Aziz Hariri of Haboob SA to bypass a banned API list on macOS and earn $50,000. STAR Labs targeted Microsoft’s SharePoint team collaboration platform with their zero-day exploit chain and won $100,000. They also successfully hacked Ubuntu Desktop with a previously known exploit, earning $15,000. Synacktiv won $100,000 and a Tesla Model 3 after successfully executing a TOCTOU attack against the Tesla Gateway in the Automotive category. They also managed to escalate privileges on Apple macOS and earned $40,000.
That wraps up the first day of #P2OVancouver 2023! We awarded $375,000 (and a Tesla Model 3!) for 12 zero-days during the first day of the contest. Stay tuned for day two of the contest tomorrow! #Pwn2Own pic.twitter.com/UTvzqxmi8E

Contestants Aim to Apple Safari, Mozilla, VirtualBox, and more
After the event, vendors have 90 days to create and release security fixes for all reported flaws before Trend Micro’s Zero Day Initiative publicly discloses them. Last year’s Vancouver Pwn2Own contest saw security researchers earn $1,155,000 after hacking Windows 11 six times, Ubuntu Desktop four times, and successfully demonstrating three Microsoft Teams zero-days. They also reported several zero-days in Apple Safari, Oracle Virtualbox, and Mozilla Firefox, and hacked the Tesla Model 3 Infotainment System. With Pwn2Own Vancouver 2023 raising the stakes even higher, the security community eagerly awaits next year’s event.
