A Practical Evaluation on GPS Spoofing

GNSS Spoofing and protection; V2X; ICV; security; network

With the development of advanced driving assis-tance systems (ADAS) and 5G technologies, intelligent connected vehicles (ICVs) are expected to obtain widespread application in future. Based on V2X architecture (including vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-infrastructure, vehicle-to-network, vehicle-to-person, etc.), these ICVs, however, face security threats such as privacy disclosure, network attacks, etc., as well as conventional networks. What is worse, attacks within a V2X environment pose more serious threats to life and property as cars could be manipulated to cause accidents. In this paper, we investigate vulnerabilities of the in-vehicle navigation system, which relies greatly on global navigation satellite system (GNSS). We first carefully design a GPS spoofing attack, which is then used to evaluate whether the in-vehicle navigation system can resist the attack. Simulation experiments are presented to verify the effectiveness of the GPS spoofing attack. Then we give suggestions to protect vehicles from being deceived.
