This is not a talk in which I will demonstrate exploit chains obtained from the underworld after signing with blood. It’s about sharing meaningful stories from said underworld. The automotive underworld of huge corporations, short deadlines and lukewarm engineers. The one where companies fight for packing more and more functionality inside your computer on wheels, without paying attention to one of the things that our life actually depends on right now, cybersecurity. While others talk about extremely significant remote vulnerabilities, I will focus on a high-level view of architecture and design of vehicles and where security fits in these processes. I will go through a journey of exploitation, from discovering 0days, to persuading engineers for the significance of a finding, by putting him in the driving seat and engaging the breaks mid-journey. I will conclude, trying to understand why this is happening, why this behavior towards security still exists in the automotive industry.
