Scanning the Internet for Ros: A View of Security in Robotics Research DeMarinis, Nicholas, Tellex, Stefanie, Kemerlis, Vasileios P., Konidaris, George, and Fonseca, Rodrigo In 2019 International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) 2019 [Abs] [PDF] [Bibtex]
Security is particularly important in robotics, as robots can directly perceive and affect the physical world. We describe the results of a scan of the entire IPv4 address space of the Internet for instances of the Robot Operating System (ROS), a widely used robotics software platform. We identified a number of hosts supporting ROS that are exposed to the public Internet, thereby allowing anyone to access robotic sensors and actuators. As a proof of concept, and with the consent of the relevant researchers, we were able to read image sensor information from and actuate a physical robot present in a research lab in an American university. This paper gives an overview of our findings, including our methodology, the geographic distribution of publicly-accessible platforms, the sorts of sensor and actuator data that is available, and the different kinds of robots and sensors that our scan uncovered. Additionally, we offer recommendations on best practices to mitigate these security issues in the future.

Toward Usable Network Traffic Policies for IoT Devices in Consumer Networks DeMarinis, Nicholas, and Fonseca, Rodrigo In Proceedings of the 1st ACM CCS International Workshop on Internet of Things Security and Privacy (IoT S&P’17) 2017 [Abs] [PDF] [Bibtex]
The Internet of Things (IoT) revolution has brought millions of small, low-cost, connected devices into our homes, cities, infrastructure, and more. However, these devices are often plagued by security vulnerabilities that pose threats to user privacy or can threaten the Internet architecture as a whole. Home networks can be particularly vulnerable to these threats as they typically have no network administrator and often contain unpatched or otherwise vulnerable devices. In this paper, we argue that the unique security challenges of home networks require a new network-layer architecture to both protect against external threats and mitigate attacks from compromised devices. We present initial findings based on traffic analysis from a small-scale IoT testbed toward identifying predictable patterns in IoT traffic that may allow construction of a policy-based framework to restrict malicious traffic. Based on our observations, we discuss key features for the design of this architecture to promote future developments in network-layer security in smart home networks.

Switches are Monitors Too! Stateful Property Monitoring as a Switch Design Criterion Nelson, Tim, DeMarinis, Nicholas, Hoff, Timothy Adam, Fonseca, Rodrigo, and Krishnamurthi, Shriram In Proceedings of the Fifteenth ACM Workshop on Hot Topis in Networks (HotNets) 2016 [Abs] [PDF] [Bibtex]
Testing and debugging networks in situ is notoriously difficult. Many vital correctness properties involve histories over multiple packets (e.g., prior established connections). Checking such properties requires cross-packet state, which cannot be fully captured on stateless switch hardware. Recent SDN work is enabling limited switch operations on persistent state. We present runtime checking of cross-packet correctness properties as a unique and instructive use case for developing stateful switch primitives. In this paper, we examine a set of cross-packet properties and distill from them switch features needed to monitor their correctness. We then contrast these against features provided by current approaches to switch state in SDNs and identify semantic gaps with an eye toward informing future switch instruction sets.
