BlackBox Debugging of Embedded Systems.

Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are increasingly vital for critical infrastructures (CIs) and societies. Whether a sensor, controllers or transmitters all the systems are running embedded systems and therefore could be vulnerable to cyber security threats.
Protecting these systems requires deep understanding of the various attack vectors and interfaces. This is become even harder in absence of a full debugging environment.
This research will demonstrate new methods / techniques that we have developed to debug embedded systems and potentially modify/infect code through various interfaces (whatever is available on the target) without bricking the system and render it unusable.

In this presentation, we will demonstrate this process end to end and perform a live demo on a target ICS/SCADA device including:
– Using hardware interfaces to interact with device
– Bypassing the firmware validation
– Infecting the device with not useful code(and bricking it by mistake)
– Implementing the debugger (Background, Broad overview, Specific Implementation)
– Live debugging using the technique on the target device
