Survey on vehicular attacks - building a vulnerability database

Modern cars are significantly linked to the outside world because of rising number of connections in the vehicle, connections between the vehicle and the exterior environment , e.g. diagnostics and flash interfaces or the numerous amounts of bus systems for data exchange. All these connections are potential security breaches. Previous papers and this research work show that there are a lot of security vulnerabilities in modern car connections. The aim of this paper is to merge the found vulnerabilities and the available results in literature, categorise them in the same way as in Information Technology (IT) and give an outlook on how most problems can be solved. This paper also aims to introduce an example database for automotive IT vulnerabilities.
