Weakness (CWE)
CWE-1326: Missing Immutable Root of Trust in Hardware
A missing immutable root of trust in the hardware results in the ability to bypass secure boot or execute untrusted or adversarial boot code.
How to prevent it (2 mitigations)
-
Architecture and Design
When architecting the system, the RoT should be designated for storage in a memory that does not allow further programming/writes. Note that, for components like ROM, secure patching/update features should be supported to allow authenticated and authorized updates in the field.
-
Implementation
During implementation and test, the RoT memory location should be demonstrated to not allow further programming/writes.
