Authentication of hardware modules connected through Controller Area Networks (CAN) in modern vehicles is becoming an increasing security issue. Untrusted modules introduced on the market may alter the secure boot infrastructure of a complex vehicle, thus completely compromising its security. This paper introduces the problem and highlights a preliminary idea for reaching better protection and preventing or limiting this category of attacks.
