Previous research has shown that it is possible for an attacker to get remote code execution on the electronic control units (ECU) in automotive vehicles via various interfaces such as the Bluetooth interface and the telematics unit. This paper aims to expand on the ideas of what such an attacker could do to influence the behavior of the vehicle after that type of attack. In particular, the authors demonstrate how on two different vehicles that in some circumstances they are able to control the steering, braking, acceleration and display. They also propose a mechanism to detect these kinds of attacks. All technical information and code needed to reproduce these attacks is included in this archive. This was released to the community as promised by the researchers who presented their findings at Defcon 21.
