The Ghost Navigator: Revisiting the Hidden Vulnerability of Localization in Autonomous Driving

No ratings

Presented at USENIX Security 2025 by

Localization is crucial for Autonomous Driving (AD), which serves as a critical foundation impacting the performance of downstream modules. While Multi-Sensor Fusion (MSF) techniques enhance localization accuracy and reliability, the security of fusion-based localization systems has emerged as a major concern. Although existing studies have extensively investigated security aspects of these systems, the impact of vehicle dynamics on the effectiveness of Global Positioning System (GPS) spoofing attacks is persistently overlooked.
