Weakness (CWE)

CWE-1282: Assumed-Immutable Data is Stored in Writable Memory

Base Incomplete

Immutable data, such as a first-stage bootloader, device identifiers, and "write-once" configuration settings are stored in writable memory that can be re-programmed or updated in the field.

How to prevent it (1 mitigation)
  1. Implementation

    Storing immutable code or data in read-only memory
    (ROM), fuses, or one-time programmable (OTP) memory
    provides strong integrity guarantees and provides a
    root of trust for securing the rest of the system.
