Abusing CAN Bus Specifications for DoS Attacks in Embedded Systems

DEFCONConference via YouTube

Overview

Explore a technical conference talk from DEF CON 31's Car Hacking Village that delves into the vulnerabilities of CAN bus specifications in embedded systems. Learn about the CAN bus communication standard widely used in automotive systems for its reliability, flexibility, and simplified wiring implementation. Discover how attackers can exploit protocol specifications by manipulating metadata fields within defined message formats, potentially exposing vulnerabilities in manufacturer-provided libraries and developer implementations. Examine the implications of non-adherence to protocol specifications and understand the security risks when developers make assumptions about message formatting in automotive systems. Through this 37-minute presentation, gain insights into the intersection of automotive security, embedded systems, and protocol exploitation.
