Abstract

Nowadays, vehicles have become more complex due to the increased number of electronic control units communicating through in-vehicle networks. Controller area network (CAN) is one of the most used protocols for in-vehicle networks. Still, it lacks a conventional security infrastructure, making it highly vulnerable to numerous attacks. The Fuzzy attack is one of the most challenging attacks for in-vehicle networks because of its randomly spoofed injected messages similar to the legitimate traffic and its numerous physical effects on the vehicle. In this paper, we focus on Fuzzy attack detection in the internal vehicle network by investigating the performances of ensemble learning techniques to mitigate this attack. We evaluated their efficiency on realistic datasets and on a new advanced stealthy attack dataset with physical impacts on the vehicle. eXtreme, Light, and Category Gradient Boosting, as well as Bagging ensemble learning techniques, in particular, showed a considerable improvement in detection performance in terms of accuracy, training and testing time reduction, and a decreased false alarm rate.
