Abstract. In this paper, we proposed an effective vulnerability mining system for IEC61850 protocol in the Smart Grid. First of all, we introduce the basic structures and features of IEC61850 protocol. Next, we summarize the possible vulnerabilities of it. Finally a fuzzing tester named IECFuzzer is designed and implemented using the technique of fuzzing. A lot of simulation results show that IECFuzzer can not only be used to exploit the potential denial-of-service vulnerabilities of IEC61850 protocol, but also to verify the robustness of PLC devices using IEC61850 protocol.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
