大學生髮現無人機漏洞:可被劫持操縱攝像頭

Civil drones are gaining popularity with expanded use from photo and video shooting to delivery. Yet a team from a college in Shanghai has warned that these devices can be easily hijacked by hackers for malicious purposes.

隨着無人機的功能從拍攝照片、視頻甚至擴展到可以快遞，民用無人機越來越受到歡迎。然而一個來自於上海的大學生團隊警示說，無人機設備很容易遭到黑客的惡意侵入。

Chen Peng, a postgraduate student from Shanghai University of Science and Technology, showed how hacking takes place with the help of his professor Chen Hao.

陳鵬，上海科技大學的一名研究生，在導師陳浩的幫助下展示了黑客如何入侵無人機。

The 23-year-old connected a cellphone to his computer through Wi-Fi. As he input a series of instructions into the computer, the cellphone started to display the image captured by the controlled drone. He also managed to control the movement of the lens on the drone to select whatever angle he wanted.

這名23歲的學生通過無線網連接了手機和電腦。在他將一系列程序輸入電腦時，手機開始顯示被無人機控制的畫面。他努力控制無人機機翼按照他想要的角度運轉。

Chen Peng developed the hacking system as his graduation project for his bachelor degree. He said the loophole in drones can be used for both good and bad purposes. "For example, if a popular figure wants to escape the paparazzi, my system can help them detect the drones around them and control the device to protect their own privacy."

陳鵬開發黑客系統來作爲碩士畢業設計。他說無人機的漏洞不光有壞處，也有好處。“例如，如果名人想逃避狗仔隊的煩擾，我的系統可以幫助他發現和控制他周圍的無人機設備來保護他的個人隱私。”

The drone they used in experiments is made by a Shenzhen company, which "Dominates 70 percent of China’s drone market", according to Chen Hao. "As we are studying Info-security and mobile technology, we want to find solutions to security loopholes in these daily-used devices."

陳浩教授介紹，他們用於實驗的無人機由深圳一家公司製造，這款無人機佔據了中國無人機市場的70%。“因爲我們研究的是信息安全和移動技術，我們想找到這些日常設備安全漏洞的解決方法。”

The team has briefed the drone company on the defects in their products and instructed them to improve safety measures. The company also plans to invite the team to the test its future products.

這個小組已經向無人機生產公司介紹了他們產品的缺陷，並提示公司提供安全防範措施。無人機制造公司計劃邀請陳鵬的小組加入到他們未來產品的檢測隊伍中。
