Changelog

All notable changes to KAT are documented here.

[1.1.2] - 2026-02-20

Added

• Vulnerability database (CVE) — Expanded CVE coverage: unique id per vuln row; year range (year_start/year_end) and arrays for makes/models; source URL per CVE. New/updated CVEs: CVE-2022-38766 (Renault ZOE), CVE-2022-27254 (Honda Civic), CVE-2022-37418 (RollBack, Honda/Hyundai/Kia/Nissan — per-model year ranges), CVE-2022-36945 (RollBack, Mazda, three consecutive signals through 2020), CVE-2019-20626 (Honda/Acura static-code replay; confirmed vehicles per Unoriginal-Rice-Patty). Vulnerability panel shows NVD source link for each match. README table of CVEs with NVD links.

Changed

• Commands — :replay, :lock, :unlock, :trunk (and :panic) accept multiple IDs: single (1), comma list (1, 3, 5), range (1-5), executed in order.
• RSSI bar — Shows TX with red bar and border while transmitting; draw-before-transmit so TX state is visible.

---

[1.1.1] - 2026-02-13

Changed

• UI updates — Vulnerability panel (green border when vuln found, green “encryption broken” text); signal action menu shows TX Lock/Unlock/Trunk/Panic only for encoder-capable captures (unknown/decoded get Replay only).

---

[1.1.0] - 2026-02-13

Added

• RSSI Bar — Live received signal strength indicator in the UI.
• KeeLoq Decodes — KeeLoq generic fallback and keystore-based decoding (see 1.0.1); listed here for 1.1.0 release.
• Vulnerability Database — Built-in CVE database (Year/Make/Model/Region). New Vuln Found column (Yes/No). Press i on a capture to set Year/Make/Model/Region; matching CVEs appear in the detail panel. Same metadata used for .fob export.

Updated

• Keystore — Keystore improvements and additional keys.

Fixed

• VAG decoding — Fixes and improvements for VAG protocol decoding.

---

[1.0.2] - 2026-02-13

Added

• RTL-SDR support (receive-only) — KAT can use an RTL-SDR (e.g. RTL433-style dongles) when no HackRF is present. Device selection: HackRF first, then RTL-SDR. With RTL-SDR, capture and decode work as normal; transmit (Lock/Unlock/Trunk/Panic, Replay) is disabled with a clear message. Header shows RTL-SDR (RX only); signal menu shows (no TX) on transmit actions when using RTL-SDR. Dependency: rtl-sdr-rs. README updated with supported hardware and Linux DVB-T note.

Fixed

• :q / :quit terminal state — :q and :quit now request quit via the main loop instead of std::process::exit(0), so the terminal is properly restored (raw mode off, alternate screen left, cursor shown), matching behavior of pressing q.

Changed

• UI — DISCONNECTED status in the header is now shown in red. Startup no-device warning text updated to "or continue without TX/RX support" (was "or continue in demo mode"). Header displays the active device name (HackRF, RTL-SDR (RX only), or No device).

---

[1.0.1] - 2026-02-13

Fixed

• Ford V0 — Decoder fix for Ford keyfob signals (BinRAW/RAW .sub handling and decode alignment).

Added

• KeeLoq generic fallback — When a capture does not decode as any known protocol, KAT now tries to decode it as KeeLoq using every manufacturer key in the embedded keystore (Kia V3/V4 and Star Line air formats). Successful decodes appear in the capture list as Keeloq (keystore name) (e.g. Keeloq (Alligator), Keeloq (Pandora_PRO)). Implemented in keeloq_generic.rs using the keeloq_common helper only.

Changed

• Embedded keystore — Updated with additional manufacturer keys (including Pandora and other entries). KeeLoq generic fallback uses all KeeLoq MF keys (types 0, 1, 2, 10, 20) from the keystore.

---

[1.0.0] - 2025

Initial release. Multi-protocol decoding (Kia V0–V6, Ford V0, Fiat V0, Subaru, Suzuki, VAG, PSA, Scher-Khan, Star Line), HackRF capture and transmit, .fob and Flipper .sub export, embedded keystore, research mode, TUI.
