Today’s mobile devices contain densely packaged system-on-chips (SoCs) with multi-core, high-frequency CPUs and complex pipelines. In parallel, sophisticated SoC-assisted security mechanisms have become commonplace for protecting device data, such as trusted execution environments, full-disk and file-based encryption. Both advancements have dramatically complicated the use of conventional physical attacks, requiring the development of specialised attacks. In this survey, we consolidate recent developments in physical fault injections and side-channel attacks on modern mobile devices. In total, we comprehensively survey over 50 fault injection and side-channel attack papers published between 2009–2021. We evaluate the prevailing methods, compare existing attacks using a common set of criteria, identify several challenges and shortcomings, and suggest future directions of research.

当今的移动设备包含密集封装的片上系统 (SoC)，具有多核、高频 CPU 和复杂的流水线。与此同时，复杂的 SoC 辅助安全机制已成为保护设备数据的常见方法，例如可信执行环境、全盘和基于文件的加密。这两项进步都极大地使传统物理攻击的使用复杂化，需要开发专门的攻击。在本次调查中，我们整合了对现代移动设备的物理故障注入和侧信道攻击的最新进展。总的来说，我们全面调查了 2009-2021 年间发表的 50 多篇故障注入和侧信道攻击论文。我们评估流行的方法，使用一组通用的标准比较现有的攻击，确定几个挑战和缺点，
