SK_LOAD timing side channel during AES module decryption in Texas Instruments OMAP L138

Published Oct 19, 2023 · Updated Feb 27, 2025 · Assigned by NCSC-NL

Description

The AES implementation in the Texas Instruments OMAP L138 (secure variants), present in mask ROM, suffers from a timing side channel which can be exploited by an adversary with non-secure supervisor privileges by managing cache contents and collecting timing information for different ciphertext inputs. Using this side channel, the SK_LOAD secure kernel routine can be used to recover the Customer Encryption Key (CEK).
