CERT-In Flags Security Vulnerabilities in Tata Motors iRA Apps; Updates ReleasedPreviousNext

The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) has identified four high-severity security vulnerabilities in Tata Motors' iRA 2.0 and iRA.ev connected vehicle apps, affecting versions 26.7.3 and earlier for iRA 2.0, and 26.7.2 and earlier for iRA.ev. These flaws could allow attackers to steal credentials, impersonate users, access vehicle data, and modify app information without authorization. Tata Motors has addressed these issues through software updates rolled out in August and September 2026, urging users to update to the latest app versions to ensure security.
