TCP/IP vulnerabilities in embedded devices for accelerator control

  • 1. Japan Synchrotron Radiation Research Institute (JASRI/SPring-8), Sayo, Hyogo (Japan)

Description

Recent accelerator-control system consists of many embedded devices, which are equipped with Ethernet interface. By increasing the number of Ethernet-connected devices and TCP/IP implementation, more trouble have arisen. Present study aims at revealing network vulnerabilities in the embedded devices to improve operation stability at SPring-8. One of the embedded devices, motor control unit (MCU), was investigated, and we succeeded in finding vulnerability corresponding to load of network traffic. Strategies for improving reliability of the MCU and embedded devices are presented. (author)
