Fuzzing the MCU of Connected Vehicles for Security and Safety
Explore the world of connected vehicle security in this HITB2022SIN conference talk on fuzzing MCUs. Dive into the evolving landscape of Smart Connected Vehicles and the persistent focus on Vehicle Control Units (VCUs) as prime targets for hackers. Learn about the limitations of traditional MCU software testing methods and discover how fuzzing can enhance security testing for vehicle MCUs. Gain insights into the innovative approach of combining WINAFL and Trace32 with Lauterbach PowerDebug to achieve code coverage-guided fuzzing for ARM Cortex-M based MCUs. Understand how this method can be applied to both information security vulnerability mining and functional safety software testing, improving overall system robustness. Follow along as the speaker demonstrates the practical application of this fuzzing technique on CAN services and SOA services, revealing critical security vulnerabilities and system stability issues.
