In this paper, we discuss several techniques which we used to significantly increase the efficiency of reverse-engineering the firmware of an instrument cluster. Using this example target, we demonstrate it is fairly easy to implement an emulator which is capable of emulating the target’s firmware entirely without the need for the original hardware, including many essential components of the target such as the EEPROM, display controller, and CAN bus.

Abstract: Side-channel analysis (SCA) extracts sensitive information from a device by analyzing information that is leaked through side channels. These measurements are correlated with specific operations executed on the device, e.g., encryption or decryption,...
