Formally Verifying the Security and Privacy of an Adopted Standard for Software-Update in Cars: Verifying Uptane 2.0
Ioana Boureanu · 2023
In this paper, we formally analyse the security of Uptane 2.0 – the latest version11“Latest” is meant at the time of this writing, i.e., in April 2023. of a framework for over-the-air (online) delivery of software to cars. We are doing so by using the threat model and security requirements found in standard document that accompanies Uptane 2.0, as well as a modulation of this threat model and requirements added by ourselves, for a deeper analysis. To undertake this verification, we use the well-known formal protocol-verifier and theorem prover called Tamarin. We discuss our responsible disclosure to and work with the Uptane Alliance.
