Ethical Hacking of Android Auto in the Context of Road Safety

Palm, Alexander, Gafvelin, Benjamin January 2021 (has links)
With a more than ever increasing demand to interconnect smartphones with infotainment systems, Android Auto has risen in popularity with its services used in modern vehicles worldwide. However, as users progressively connect their smartphones to in-vehicle infotainment systems, the opportunity for malicious actors to endanger and access private data of Android Auto users advances as well. The goal with this thesis is to determine how secure Android Auto is for road use. The main research question is to figure out if Android Auto is susceptible to attacks that exploit certain vulnerabilities in the Android operating system. The research question was answered by creating several proof-of-concept attacks on Android Auto using an emulated infotainment system with mobile devices. An investigation was also conducted regarding the application’s communication channel between the mobile device and infotainment display. Results of this thesis demonstrate that several attacks are substantially severe to endanger drivers on the road. There is a great risk of successful exploits when running Android Auto locally on the phone without a connection to the infotainment system, and a lesser risk when connected to the infotainment system. Intercepting communication in the USB channel revealed an encryption algorithm whose version has published exploits and can be cracked to potentially exploit Android Auto. / I takt med en evigt ökande efterfrågan på att sammankoppla smarttelefoner med infotainmentsystem, har allt fler börjat använda Android Auto i sina fordon världen över. En bieffekt av att allt fler sammankopplar sina mobiler till infotainmentsystem, är att det leder till fler möjligheter för illvilliga parter att stjäla privat data och sätta Android Autoanvändares liv i fara. Målet med denna avhandling är att fastställa hur säkert Android Auto är i avseende till vägsäkerhet. Den huvudsakliga forskningsfrågan är att lista ut om Android Auto kan attackeras av attacker som utnyttjar sårbarheter i Android operativsystemet. Forskningsfrågan besvarades genom att skapa flertal konceptattacker mot Android Auto användandes av ett emulerat infotainmentsystem och mobiltelefoner. En utredning utfördes även gällande applikationens kommunikationskanal mellan telefonen och infotainmentskärmen. Resultatet från denna avhandling demonstrerade att många attacker är tillräckligt allvarliga för att äventyra trafikanternas säkerhet. Det finns en avsevärd risk för framgångsrika attacker när Android Auto körs lokalt på telefonen utan en USB koppling till infotainmentsystemet, och en liten risk när telefonen är kopplad till infotainmentsystemet. Avlyssning och uppfångning av kommunikationen i USB kanalen visade att en krypteringsalgoritm vars version har existerande sårbarheter kan avkrypteras och utnyttjas för att potentiellt attackera Android Auto.

UI Design Trends InAutomobile DigitalMedia Players : How Trends Compare To User Preference In Sweden

Kézy, Máté, Stendahl, Adam January 2022 (has links)
This study aims to evaluate the preferences of drivers in Sweden, in regard to incar digital media players. As interfaces in cars, to some extent, are taking over thefunctionality of physical buttons and knobs, it is increasingly important for carmanufacturers to better understand what their users prefer.Through an analysis of current trends and measurements of user preferences, wehave identified areas for improvement and further development of these mediaplayer interfaces. These suggested improvements are as follows: • Using the screen real estate for important items • Emphasizing important elements by more efficient use of spacing andsizing • Removing or hiding menu items that are used sparingly • Using the concept of familiarity to create more user-friendly interfaces
