What is embedded system?

An embedded system is an electronic product that contains a microprocessor (one or more) andsoftware to perform some constituent function within a larger entity.

Why embedded system security?

“September 2007, Israeli jets bombed a suspected nuclear installation in northeastern Syria.Among the many mysteries still surrounding that strike was the failure of Syrian radar, supposedly state of the art, to warn the Syrian military of the incoming assault. It wasn’t long before military and technology bloggers concluded that this was an incident ofelectronic warfare and not just any kind. Post after post speculated that the commercial offthe-shelf microprocessors in the Syrian radar might have been purposely fabricated with ahidden “backdoor” inside. By sending a preprogrammed code to those chips, an unknownantagonist had disrupted the chips’ function and temporarily blocked the radar”Source : IEEE spectrum, 2007.

Why embedded system security? The Stuxnet worm is likely the first malware to directly target embedded

process control systems.

Stuxnet infiltrated Siemens process control systems at nuclear plants by first subverting the MicrosoftWindows workstations operators use to configure and monitor the embedded controlelectronics

What is Embedded Software ? Embedded software is computer software, written to control

machines or devices.

Embedded Software Component : Firmware OS Program or Script

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 14

FirmWare VS. OS Firmware:

For any device( printer, scanner, digital camera, etc.) to start running, It should have an initial program to run when it is powered up/booted. It is also called as bootstrap program, BIOS. It is mounted on ROM(a non-volatile memory, whose contents are permanent). Firmware locates the operating system's kernel and loads it into primary memory(RAM) at the time of startup. assembly or C/C++.

Operating System:A complete software stack that manages Embedded's hardware and sets up an environment for the applications to run. In other words, an operating system performs the designated task of the device. Kernel is at the bottom of this software stack and keeps running as long as your device is up and running. When I say Operating system managing the hardware, It is actually Kernel that manages any requests to hardware resources(CPU,memory,input,output).

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 15

Embedded OS There is a lot of embedded OS, typically a real-time operating system(RTOS). LynxOS, VxWorks, BeRTOS, ThreadX, to Windows CE or Linux

(with patched kernel). Others OS: OpenWrt, PikeOS, eCos, Fusion RTOS, Nucleus RTOS,

RTEMS, INTEGRITY, uC/OS, QNX, FreeBSD ,Tiny OS , and OSE.

Embedded Software Attacks

The software in an embedded system is a source of security vulnerability.

Firmware or OS vulnerabilities.

Three factors which make security risks in software Complexity Extensibility Connectivity

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 17

Embedded Software Attacks

Complexity Software is complicated More lines of code ▪ Increases possibility of bugs and security vulnerabilities

Unsafe programming languages being used C and C++ are most common

buses

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 25

Probing Attacks Reverse engineering can target the internal design. An attacker can find potential weaknesses in the chip.

In modern smart cards, various features used to inhibit reverse engineering are implemented using glue logic.

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 26

Side-Channel Attacks Classic cryptography views the secure problems with

mathematical abstractions

Recently, many of the security protocols have been attacked through physical attacks

Exploit weaknesses in the cryptographic system hardware implementation aimed to recover the secret parameters

Modern cryptography is based on Kerckhoffs's -> assumption all of the data required to operate a chip is entirely hidden in the key

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 27

Side-Channel Attacks

A Side-Channel attack is any attack based on information gained from the physical implementation of a cryptosystem(embedded system).

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 28

Side-Channel Emissions Power Consumption: Logic circuits typically consume differing amounts of power based on their input data. Electro-Magnetic: EM emissions, particularly via near-field inductive and capacitive coupling, can also modulate othe signals on the die. Optical: The optical properties of silicon can be modulated byaltering the voltage or current in the silicon. Timing and Delay: Timing attacks exploit data-dependentdifferences in calculation time in cryptographic algorithms. Acoustic : The acoustic emissions are the result of thepiezoelectric properties of ceramic capacitors

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 29

Types of Side-Channel Attack Simple side-channel attacks directly map the results from a small number of traces of the

side channel to the operation of DUA Differential side-channel attacks exploit the correlation between the data values being processed and the

side-channel leakage

Template side-channel attacks

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 30

Power Analayse Attack attacker studies the power consumption of a cryptographic hardware

device (such as a smart card, tamper-resistant "black box", or integrated circuit).

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 31

Simple Power Analayse

Variations in power consumption occur as the device performs different operations.

different instructions performed by a microprocessor will have differing power consumption. As a result, in a power trace from a smart card performing a DES encryption, the sixteen rounds can be seen clearly.

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 32

* DES Basic Structure

• Input: 64 bits (a block)• Li/Ri– left/right half of the input

block for iteration i (32 bits) – subject to substitution S and permutation P (cf. Fig 2-8– text)

• K - user-supplied key• Ki - round key:

– 56 bits used +8 unused(unused for E but often used for error checking)

• Output: 64 bits (a block)• Note: Ri becomes L(i+1)• All basic op’s are simple logical

ops– Left shift / XOR

Example1- SPA on DES (cont’d)

The upper trace – entire encryption, including the initial phase, 16 DES rounds, and the initial permutation

The lower trace – detailed view of the second and third rounds

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 34

Example2- SPA on RSA Similarly, squaring and multiplication operations in RSA

implementations can often be distinguished, enabling an adversary to compute the secret key.

if the magnitude of the variations in power consumption are small, standard digital oscilloscopes can easily show the data-induced variations.

This example of RSA in smart card, key is : 00 111

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 35

Differential Power Analayse A side-channel attack which involves statistically

analyzing power consumption. attack exploits biases varying power consumption of

microprocessors operations using secret keys. DPA attacks have signal processing and error

correction properties which can extract secrets from measurements.

The idea was proposed by Kocher

These kind of attacks generally require a large amount of samples of timings.

Fault Induction Mess with environmental conditions to induce fault in

execution; e.g., clock frequency voltage temperature

May require de-packaging, but is not always tamper-evident

05/02/2023 Introduction to Embedded System Security 48

Methods for Fault Injections Card Tears Physical
