What to do

AI-suggested

  1. Restrict physical access to vehicles and infotainment systems, especially during servicing or in fleet environments.
  2. Monitor and control the source and integrity of software update files to prevent unauthorized or malicious updates.
  3. Implement strict input validation and sanitization in software update handling functions to neutralize special characters and prevent command injection.
  4. Employ application whitelisting or code signing to ensure only authorized software runs on infotainment devices.
  5. Collaborate with Visteon and automotive OEMs to obtain and deploy patches or firmware updates as soon as they become available.
  6. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on infotainment systems to identify and remediate similar vulnerabilities.
  7. Educate vehicle maintenance personnel about the risks of unauthorized software updates and physical tampering.
  8. Consider network segmentation within vehicle systems to limit the impact of compromised infotainment units.

Description

Visteon Infotainment REFLASH_DDU_ExtractFile Command Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows physically present attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Visteon Infotainment systems. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the REFLASH_DDU_ExtractFile function. A crafted software update file can trigger execution of a system call composed from a user-supplied string. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the device. Was ZDI-CAN-23421.
