CVE-2018-3968
Estado: ModificadaAlta (7)—
An exploitable vulnerability exists in the verified boot protection of the Das U-Boot from version 2013.07-rc1 to 2014.07-rc2. The affected versions lack proper FIT signature enforcement, which allows an attacker to bypass U-Boot's verified boot and execute an unsigned kernel, embedded in a legacy image format. To trigger this vulnerability, a local attacker needs to be able to supply the image to boot.

Las versiones afectadas carecen de una aplicación adecuada de las firmas FIT, lo que permite que un atacante omita el arranque verificado de U-Boot y ejecute un kernel sin firmar, embebido en un formato de imagen heredado. Para desencadenar esta vulnerabilidad, un atacante local necesita ser capaz de proporcionar la imagen de arranque."
