Title
International Standards Organization ISO 15118-2 Improper Restriction of Communication Channel to Intended Endpoints
Summary
By manipulating the Signal Level Attenuation Characterization (SLAC)
protocol with spoofed measurements, an attacker can stage a
man-in-the-middle attack between an electric vehicle and chargers that
comply with the ISO 15118-2 part. This vulnerability may be exploitable
wirelessly, within close proximity, via electromagnetic induction.
