We are seeing a wider range of new features and -functionality, with a lot more complex software. It is fair to say that the cars -being introduced to the market today have much more in common with computing -devices like cell phones, than their predecessors did. Modern car manufacturers -are also integrating support for a broad range of communication technologies for -these “connected” cars. With the advent of such vehicles, Linux has become a -natural choice for the software platform, with Automotive Grade Linux as a -promising example. - -From a security point of view, the remote capabilities of a connected car -results in a much larger attack surface. This opens a whole new world of -security vulnerabilities that need to be considered during the architectural -design. History shows that physical access to a device is sufficient for a -hacker to gain root privileges. This makes the car a hostile environment. - -The Security Blueprint documents the security features that are included as part -of Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) and identifies areas that need to be addressed -from a security perspective as part of AGL. It also gives guidance around -existing technologies and solutions. - -Security domains will allow us to create a set of tests verifying the security -of Automotive Grade Linux. - -This document is firstly based on an existing AGL security-blueprint. - -**For security to be effective, the concepts must be simple. And by default, -anything that is not allowed is forbidden.** - -We will cover topics starting from the lowest level (_Hardware_) up to the -highest levels (_Connectivity_ and _Application_). We will move quickly on -_Hardware_ and _Connectivity_ because this is not supported at our level. -Solutions of connectivity problems concern updates and secured settings while -hardware securing is related to the manufacturers. - -The document is filled with tags to easily identify important points: - -<!-- section-config --> - -- The _config_ tag quickly identifies the configurations and the recommendations - to take. - -<!-- end-section-config --><!-- section-note --> - -- The _note_ tag allows you to notify some additional details. - -<!-- end-section-note --><!-- section-todo --> - -- The _todo_ tag shows the possible improvements. - -<!-- end-section-todo --> - -In annexes of this document, you can find all the _config_ and _todo_ notes. - -## Adversaries - -Adversaries and attackers within the Automotive space. - -- Enthusiast Attackers - -Enthusiast attackers have physical access to the Engine Control Units (ECUs) at -the circuit board level. They can solder ‘mod chips’ onto the board and have -access to probing tools. They also have information on ECUs that have been -previously compromised and have access to softwares and instructions developed -by other members of car modification forums. The goal of the enthusiast hacker -could be, but is not limited to, adding extra horse power to the car or hacking -it just for fun. - -- Corrupt Automotive Dealers - -Corrupt automotive dealers are attackers that have access to the same -capabilities as enthusiasts, but also have access to the car manufacturer’s -(OEM) dealer network. They may also have access to standard debugging tools -provided by the car manufacturer. Their goal may be to support local car theft -gangs or organized criminals. - -- Organized Criminals - -Organized criminals have access to all of the above tools but may also have some -level of control over the internal network at many dealerships. They may have -hacked and gained temporary control of the Over-The-Air (OTA) servers or the -In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) systems. This is very much like the role of -organized criminals in other industries such as paid media today. Their goal is -to extort money from OEMs and/or governments by threatening to disable multiple -vehicles. - -- Malware Developers - -Malware developers have developed malicious software to attack and compromise a -large number of vehicles. The malicious software is usually designed to spread -from one vehicle to another. Usually, the goal is to take control of multiple -machines and then sell access to them for malicious purposes like -denial-of-service (DoS) attacks or theft of private information and data. - -- Security Researchers - -Security researchers are ‘self-publicized’ security consultants trying to make a -name for themselves. They have access to standard tools for software security -analysis. They also have physical access to the vehicle and standard hardware -debugging tools (Logic Analyzers, Oscilloscopes, etc). Their goal is to -publicize attacks for personal gain or just to gain personal understanding with -a sense of helping make things more secure. - -## Attack Goals - -In today’s connected vehicle, more and more functionality is moving to software -control, meaning that the threat of attack becomes greater and greater. We see -car features like navigation and summoning, car access/engine start, and -motor/ECU upgrades all controlled through software and connections to the cloud. -The risk of attack is high because there are high value targets in play. - -Here, we outline some of the major threats categories along with some sample -attackers, example attacks, and a relative importance. These threat categories -are intended to be general examples. There can be many nuances to threat types. -Additionally, there can be many sub-attacks that eventually lead to these higher -level attack goals. - -| Threat Category | Sample Attacker | Example Attacks | Relative Importance | -|-------------------------------|-----------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| -| Vehicle theft | Individual, organized criminals | Send the car to an unplanned destination, get a key for the car, gain control of the unlock mechanism | Reduced likelihood of future vehicle purchases (Profit Later), bad press (Brand Integrity) | -| Reduced vehicle functionality | Terrorist groups, disgruntled employees | Lock the driver out of the car, cause the car to crash, block access to infotainment system | Inability sell paid-for apps and content (Profit Now), bad press (Brand Integrity), possible loss of life (Physical Injury) | -| Vehicle hacking | Vehicle owner, competitor | Get content without paying, modify DRM licenses, unlock of after-market features, theft of IP | Loss of sales for content and features (Profit Now), lawsuits from content owners (Profit Later), loss of competitive advantage (Profit Later) | -| Sensitive asset theft | Organized criminals, blackmailers | Steal credit card numbers, health information, camera data, steal bandwidth | Bad press (Brand Integrity), lawsuits from vehicle owners (Profit Later) | - -The Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) initiative builds upon open-source software -including Linux and Tizen to offer a flexible application framework. However, -the security provisions of the app framework, Cynara, and the security manager -only go so far in keeping the biggest threats at bay. As experience has shown, -providing a constrained app (like that in the Android Open Source Platform) and -store development flow, signature verification, DAC sandboxing, and MAC (SMACK) -controls over the platform can have a certain amount of success with the -security of the system. However, the openness of the system invites many -researchers, hobbyists and hackers and financially motivated attackers to -compromise the system for their own gains. - -As AGL arrives on modern automobiles, this is inevitably inviting many capable -actors to modify, attack, and compromise these well thought-out systems and -their applications. With concerns like safety and security, the auto industry -cannot afford to go the way of consumer devices like phones and tablets where -security problems are encountered on a frequent basis. It is imperative to use a -layered approach and defense-in-depth to protect the system from inevitable -attack. - -## Assets and Security Categorization - -This section outlines some of the assets that are likely to be found in the -vehicle and their relative sensitivity from an attack point of view. -Additionally, the final column on the right lists some of the recommended -protection types that can be applied to these types of assets (Note that the -empty cells refer to the cells above them). A good protection approach will give -priority to the most sensitive assets, using a defense-in-depth approach to -cover these assets. Less sensitive assets are treated at a lower priority, -typically protected with fewer protection techniques. A more fine-grained -prioritization of the the assets in a concrete vehicle network can be achieved -with detailed threat analysis which considers the topology of the vehicle -network and access-controls that are in-place. e.g. the EVITA framework for -attack trees. - -| Asset Category | Examples | Sensitivity | Recommended Protection Types | -|-------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| -| Software | ECU software, infotainment software, OS images | Critical | Key Management, Mutual Asymmetric Authentication, HSM and WhiteBox Encryption, Message Integrity Checks, Hardening/SW Protection, Program Transforms/ Obfuscation, Integrity Verification, Secure OS | -| Car Access | Biometric data, car keys | | | -| Payment Data | Credit cards, User profile critical data | | | -| Recordings | Internal camera recording, internal audio recording, external camera recording | High | Encryption, Message Integrity Checks, Hardening/SW Protection, Program Transforms / Obfuscation | -| User Profile | Usernames and passwords, customization, calendar, contacts | | | -| Location | GPS coordinates, vehicle usage data | | | -| Purchased Content | Video, audio, licenses | | | -| Teleconference | Chat, audio, video | Medium | SW Protection, Program Transforms / Obfuscation, Authenticated encryption for transmission | -| Vehicle data | Vehicle info, sensor data | | | -| Navigation data | Static and dynamic maps | | | -| 3rd party data | Home automation commands, cloud game data | | | - -## Hardening term - -The term Hardening refers to the tools, techniques and processes required in -order to reduce the attack surface on an embedded system, such as an embedded -control unit (**ECU**) or other managed devices. The target for all hardening -activities is to prevent the execution of invalid binaries on the device, and to -prevent copying of security related data from the device. - -<!-- pagebreak --> - -## AGL security overview - -AGL roots are based on security concepts.

This section includes both hardening of -the kernel itself, as well as specific configurations and patches used to -protect against known vulnerabilities within the build and configuration of the -root filesystem. - -At the Kernel level, we must ensure that no console can be launched. It could be -used to change the behavior of the system or to have more information about it. -Another aspect is the protection of the memory used by the Kernel. - -The next sub-sections contain information on various kernel configuration -options to enhance the security in the kernel (3.10.17) and also for -applications compiled to take advantage of these security features. -Additionally, there are also configuration options that protect from known -vulnerable configuration options. Here's a high level summary of various kernel -configurations that shall be required for deployment. - -## Kernel Version - -The choice of kernel version for the AGL system is essential to its security. -Depending on the type of board and eventual production system, different kernel -versions are used. For example, one of the systems under study uses the Linux -kernel version 3.10, while another uses the Linux kernel version 4.4. For the -Linux kernel version 3.10.31, there are 25 known vulnerabilities. These -vulnerabilities would allow an attacker to gain privileges, bypass access -restrictions, allow memory to be corrupted, or cause denial of service. In -contrast, the Linux kernel version of 4.4 has many fewer known vulnerabilities. -For this reason, we would in general recommend the later kernel version as a -basis for the platform. - -Note that, although there are fewer known vulnerabilities in the most recent -kernel versions there may be many unknown vulnerabilities underlying. A rule of -thumb is to update the kernel as much as possible to avoid the problems you do -know, but you should not be complacent in the trust that you place in it. A -defense-in-depth approach would then apply. - -If there are constraints and dependencies in upgrading to a newer kernel version -(e.g. device drivers, board support providers) and you are forced to an older -Linux kernel version, there need to be additional provisions made to reduce the -risk of kernel exploits, which can include memory monitoring, watch-dog -services, and system call hooking. In this case, further defense-in-depth -techniques may be required to mitigate the risk of attacks to known -vulnerabilities, which can also include runtime integrity verification of -components that are vulnerable to tampering. - -## Kernel Build Configuration - -The kernel build configuration is extremely important for determining the level -of access to services and to reduce the breadth of the attack surface. Linux -contains a great and flexible number of capabilities and this is only controlled -through the build configuration. For example, the `CONFIG_MODULES` parameter -allows kernel modules to be loaded at runtime extending the capabilities of the -kernel. This capability needs to be either inhibited or controlled at runtime -through other configuration parameters. For example, `CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE=y` -ensures that only signed modules are loaded. There is a very large number of -kernel configuration parameters, and these are discussed in detail in this -section. diff --git a/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/4_Kernel/1.2.4.1_General.md b/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/4_Kernel/1.2.4.1_General.md deleted file mode 100644 index dc685bf..0000000 --- a/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/4_Kernel/1.2.4.1_General.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,322 +0,0 @@ ---- -title: General ---- - -# General configuration - -## Mandatory Access Control - -Kernel should controls access with labels and policy. - -<!-- section-config --> - -Domain | `Config` name | `Value` --------------------- | -------------- | -------------------------------------- -Kernel-General-MAC-1 | CONFIG_IP_NF_SECURITY | m -Kernel-General-MAC-2 | CONFIG_IP6_NF_SECURITY | m -Kernel-General-MAC-3 | CONFIG_EXT2_FS_SECURITY | y -Kernel-General-MAC-4 | CONFIG_EXT3_FS_SECURITY | y -Kernel-General-MAC-5 | CONFIG_EXT4_FS_SECURITY | y -Kernel-General-MAC-6 | CONFIG_SECURITY | y -Kernel-General-MAC-7 | CONFIG_SECURITY_SMACK | y -Kernel-General-MAC-8 | CONFIG_TMPFS_XATTR | y - -<!-- end-section-config --> - -Please also refer to the [**Mandatory Access Control** documentation in -Platform](../part-5/1-MAC.html) part.

It must be possible to apply the -two fundamental principles written at the very beginning of the document. First -of all, security management must remain simple. You must also prohibit -everything by default, and then define a set of authorization rules. As cases to -deal with, we must: - -- Implement a **MAC** for processes and files. -- Limit communication between applications (_SystemBus_ and _SystemD_ part). -- Prohibit all tools used during development mode (_Utilities_ and _Services_ - part). -- Manage user capabilities (_Users_ part). -- Manage application permissions and policies (_AGLFw_ part). - -<!-- section-note --> - -The tools and concepts used to meet these needs are only examples. Any other -tool that meets the need can be used. - -<!-- end-section-note --> - -In AGL, as in many other embedded systems, different security mechanisms settle -in the core layers to ensure isolation and data privacy. While the Mandatory -Access Control layer (**SMACK**) provides global security and isolation, other -mechanisms like **Cynara** are required to check application's permissions at -runtime. Applicative permissions (also called "_privileges_") may vary depending -on the user and the application being run: an application should have access to -a given service only if it is run by the proper user and if the appropriate -permissions are granted. - -## Discretionary Access Control - -**D**iscretionary **A**ccess **C**ontrol (**DAC**) is the traditional Linux -method of separating users and groups from one another. In a shared environment -where multiple users have access to a computer or network, Unix IDs have offered -a way to contain access within privilege areas for individuals, or shared among -the group or system. The Android system took this one step further, assigning -new user IDs for each App. This was never the original intention of Linux UIDs, -but was able to provide Android’s initial security element: the ability to -sandbox applications. - -Although AGL mentions use of **DAC** for security isolation, the weight of the -security responsibility lies in the **M**andatory **A**ccess **C**ontrol -(**MAC**) and **Cynara**. Furthermore, there are system services with unique -UIDs. however,the system does not go to the extreme of Android, where every -application has its own UID. All sandboxing (app isolation) in AGL is handled in -the **MAC** contexts. - -## Mandatory Access Control - -**M**andatory **A**ccess **C**ontrol (**MAC**) is an extension to **DAC**, -whereby extended attributes (xattr) are associated with the filesystem. In the -case of AGL, the smackfs filesystem allows files and directories to be -associated with a SMACK label, providing the ability of further discrimination -on access control. A SMACK label is a simple null terminated character string -with a maximum of 255 bytes. While it doesn’t offer the richness of an SELinux -label, which provides a user, role,type, and level, the simplicity of a single -value makes the overall design far less complex. There is arguably less chance -of the security author making mistakes in the policies set forth. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -<!-- pagebreak --> - -## Acronyms and Abbreviations - -The following table lists the terms utilized within this part of the document. - -Acronyms or Abbreviations | Description -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- -_ACL_ | **A**ccess **C**ontrol **L**ists -_alsa_ | **A**dvanced **L**inux **S**ound **A**rchitecture -_API_ | **A**pplication **P**rogramming **I**nterface -_AppFw_ | **App**lication **F**rame**w**ork -_BSP_ | **B**oard **S**upport **P**ackage -_Cap_ | **Cap**abilities -_DAC_ | **D**iscretionary **A**ccess **C**ontrol -_DDOS_ | **D**istributed **D**enial **O**f **S**ervice -_DOS_ | **D**enial **O**f **S**ervice -_IPC_ | **I**nter-**P**rocess **C**ommunication -_MAC_ | **M**andatory **A**ccess **C**ontrol -_PAM_ | **P**luggable **A**uthentication **M**odules -_SMACK_ | **S**implified **M**andatory **A**ccess **C**ontrol **K**ernel diff --git a/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/5_Platform/1.2.5.1_Mandatory_Access_Control.md b/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/5_Platform/1.2.5.1_Mandatory_Access_Control.md deleted file mode 100644 index a8226dd..0000000 --- a/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/5_Platform/1.2.5.1_Mandatory_Access_Control.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,176 +0,0 @@ ---- -title: Mandatory Access Control ---- - -# Mandatory Access Control - -<!-- section-note --> - -We decided to put the **MAC** protection on the platform part despite the fact -that it applies to the kernel too, since its use will be mainly at the platform -level (except floor part). - -<!-- end-section-note --> - -**M**andatory **A**ccess **C**ontrol (**MAC**) is a protection provided by the -Linux kernel that requires a **L**inux **S**ecurity **M**odule (**LSM**).

Therefore, it is important to -assess all threat levels, and protect the system appropriately understanding -that direct access attacks are the door-way into remote attacks. - -### Remote Attacks - -The local web server interface used for applications is the first point of -attack, as web service APIs are well understood and easily intercepted. The -local web server could potentially be exploited by redirecting web requests -through the local service and exploiting the APIs. While there is the use of a -security token on the web service API, this is weak textual matching at best. -This will not be difficult to spoof. It is well known that [API Keys do not -provide any real security](http://nordicapis.com/why-api-keys-are-not-enough/). - -It is likely that the architectural inclusion of an http / web-service interface -provided the most flexibility for applications to be written natively or in -HTML5. However, this flexibility may trade-off with security concerns. For -example, if a native application were linked directly to the underlying -framework services, there would be fewer concerns over remote attacks coming -through the web-service interface. - -Leaving the interface as designed, mitigations to attacks could include further -securing the interface layer with cryptographic protocols: e.g. encrypted -information passing, key exchange (e.g. Elliptic-Curve Diffie-Hellman). - -### User-level Native Attacks - -- Modifying the CSV data-base -- Modifying the SQLite DB -- Tampering with the user-level binaries -- Tampering with the user daemons -- Spoofing the D-bus Interface -- Adding executables/libraries - -With direct access to the device, there are many security concerns on the native -level. For example, as **Cynara** uses a text file data-base with -comma-separated values (CSV), an attacker could simply modify the data-base to -escalate privileges of an application. Once a single application has all the -privileges possible on the system, exploits can come through in this manner. -Similarly the SQLite database used by the Security Manager is not much different -than a simple text file. There are many tools available to add, remove, modify -entries in an SQLite data-base. - -On the next level, a common point of attack is to modify binaries or daemons for -exploiting functionality. There are many Linux tools available to aid in this -regard, including: [IDA Pro](https://www.hex-rays.com/products/ida/index.shtml), -and [radare2](https://rada.re/r/). With the ability to modify binaries, an -attacker can do any number of activities including: removing calls to security -checks, redirecting control to bypass verification functionality, ignoring -security policy handling, escalating privileges, etc. - -Additionally, another attack vector would be to spoof the D-bus interface. D-bus -is a message passing system built upon Inter-Process Communication (IPC), where -structured messages are passed based upon a protocol. The interface is generic -and well documented. Therefore, modifying or adding binaries/libraries to spoof -this interface is a relatively straight-forward process. Once the interface has -been spoofed, the attacker can issue any number of commands that lead into -control of low-level functionality. - -Protecting a system from native attacks requires a methodical approach. First, -the system should reject processes that are not sanctioned to run. -Signature-level verification at installation time will help in this regard, but -run-time integrity verification is much better. Signatures need to originate -from authorized parties, which is discussed further in a later section on the -Application Store. - -On the next level, executables should not be allowed to do things where they -have not been granted permission. DAC and SMACK policies can help in this -regard. On the other hand, there remain concerns with memory accesses, system -calls, and other process activity that may go undetected. For this reason, a -secure environment which monitors all activity can give indication of all -unauthorized activity on the system. - -Finally, it is very difficult to catch attacks of direct tampering in a system. -These types of attacks require a defense-in-depth approach, where complementary -software protection and hardening techniques are needed. Tamper-resistance and -anti-reverse-engineering technologies include program -transformations/obfuscation, integrity verification, and white-box cryptography. -If applied in a mutually-dependent fashion and considering performance/security -tradeoffs, the approach can provide an effective barrier to direct attacks to -the system. Furthermore, the use of threat monitoring provides a valuable -telemetry/analytics capability and the ability to react and renew a system under -attack. - -### Root-level Native Attacks - -- Tampering the system daemon -- Tampering Cynara -- Tampering the security manager -- Disabling SMACK -- Tampering the kernel - -Once root-level access (i.e. su) has been achieved on the device, there are many -ways to compromise the system. The system daemon, **Cynara**, and the security -manager are vulnerable to tampering attacks. For example, an executable can be -modified in memory to jam a branch, jump to an address, or disregard a check. -This can be as simple as replacing a branch instruction with a NOP, changing a -memory value, or using a debugger (e.g. gdb, IDA) to change an instruction. -Tampering these executables would mean that policies can be ignored and -verification checks can be bypassed. - -Without going so far as to tamper an executable, the **SMACK** system is also -vulnerable to attack. For example, if the kernel is stopped and restarted with -the *security=none* flag, then SMACK is not enabled. Furthermore, `systemd` -starts the loading of **SMACK** rules during start-up. If this start-up process -is interfered with, then **SMACK** will not run. Alternatively, new policies can -be added with `smackload` allowing unforseen privileges to alternative -applications/executables. - -Another intrusion on the kernel level is to rebuild the kernel (as it is -open-source) and replace it with a copy that has **SMACK** disabled, or even -just the **SMACK** filesystem (`smackfs`) disabled. Without the extended label -attributes, the **SMACK** system is disabled. - -Root-level access to the device has ultimate power, where the entire system can -be compromised. More so, a system with this level access allows an attacker to -craft a simpler *point-attack* which can operate on a level requiring fewer -privileges (e.g. remote access, user-level access). - -## Vulnerable Resources - -### Resource: `afm-user-daemon` - -The `afm-user-daemon` is in charge of handling applications on behalf of a user. -Its main tasks are: - -- Enumerate applications that the end user can run and keep this list available - on demand. -- Start applications on behalf of the end user, set user running environment, - set user security context. -- List current runnable or running applications. -- Stop (aka pause), continue (aka resume), terminate a running instance of a - given application. -- Transfer requests for installation/uninstallation of applications to the - corresponding system daemon afm-system-daemon. - -The `afm-user-daemon` launches applications.

This is a more -severe attack type where the attacker can: - -* Steal keys. - * For example, a simple debugging session in running software could reveal a - key used in memory. -* Tamper software. - * For example, replacing just one function call in software with a NOP (i.e. - no operation) can drastically change the behavior of the program. -* Jam branches of control. - * For example, making a program take one branch of control rather than the - intended branch can mean the difference between an authorized and a - non-authorized installation. -* Modify important data. - * For example, if the data changed is a key or data leading to a control path, - then this attack can be severe. - * In the case of OTA updates, MATE attacks are particularly problematic for - the system. One of the consequences of MATE attacks can be installed - software that allows installation of any other software. For example, an - attacker might install remote access software to control any part of the - system. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -## Acronyms and Abbreviations - -The following table lists the terms utilized within this part of the document. - -Acronyms or Abbreviations | Description -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- -_FOTA_ | **F**irmware **O**ver **T**he **A**ir -_MATE_ | **M**an **A**t **T**he **E**nd -_MITM_ | **M**an **I**n **T**he **M**iddle -_OTA_ | **O**ver **T**he **A**ir -_SOTA_ | **S**oftware **O**ver **T**he **A**ir -_TUF_ | **T**he **U**pdate **F**ramework diff --git a/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/8_Update_(Over_The_Air)/1.2.8.1_Firmware_Over_The_Air.md b/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/8_Update_(Over_The_Air)/1.2.8.1_Firmware_Over_The_Air.md deleted file mode 100644 index 34761e3..0000000 --- a/docs/2_Architecture_Guides/2.2_Security_Blueprint/8_Update_(Over_The_Air)/1.2.8.1_Firmware_Over_The_Air.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,49 +0,0 @@ ---- -title: FOTA ---- - -# Firmware Over The Air - -The firmware update is critical since its alteration back to compromise the -entire system.
