    it can spoof RFIDs?

    Yep! I read an article recently about a pentester who was challenged to break into a hotel, and they happened to use RFID in their cards. He social engineered and piggybacked into somewhere and then used a flipper zero to get around inside the building when he hit a locked door

      Oh yeah! I vaguely recall something similar, I think? At a hackathon, even? IIRC, a small team had figured out how to effectively “bump” RFID locks, and this method led to the greater community discovering a deeper vulnerability in an enormous number of security systems across the globe (single manufacturer/distributor?)… Ah, the many ways ADHD+THC are preternatural super-twins is often why they’re picked last for teams. 🤪
