Description

The Chassis Management Board in Entrust nShield Connect XC, nShield 5c, and nShield HSMi through 13.6.11, or 13.7 (patched in 13.6.12 (LTS) and 13.9.0 (STS)), allows a physically proximate attacker to persistently modify firmware and influence the (insecurely configured) appliance boot process. To exploit this, the attacker must modify the firmware via JTAG or perform an upgrade to the chassis management board firmware. This is called F03.

Affected configurations

• entrust nshield 5c firmware (< 13.6.12) • entrust nshield 5c firmware (>= 13.7.3 < 13.9.0) • entrust nshield hsmi firmware (< 13.6.12) • entrust nshield hsmi firmware (>= 13.7.3 < 13.9.0) • entrust nshield connect xc base firmware (< 13.6.12) • entrust nshield connect xc base firmware (>= 13.7.3 < 13.9.0) • entrust nshield connect xc mid firmware (< 13.6.12) • entrust nshield connect xc mid firmware (>= 13.7.3 < 13.9.0) • entrust nshield connect xc high firmware (< 13.6.12) • entrust nshield connect xc high firmware (>= 13.7.3 < 13.9.0)
