How can an attacker control the steering?
Bluetooth -> infotainment system -> CANBUS -> Lane Assist or adaptive steering
Die infotainment system should not have this permission, but it does.
The loophole is the connected smartphone from the driver. An attacker could deauthenticate it and mimic the car app.
Lots of modern cars have electric power steering. Many of them have lane keep assist.
