1DescriptionCVE.org
The BL1 FWU SMC handling code in ARM Trusted Firmware before 1.4 might allow attackers to write arbitrary data to secure memory, bypass the bl1_plat_mem_check protection mechanism, cause a denial of service, or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted AArch32 image, which triggers an integer overflow.
AnalysisAI
The BL1 FWU SMC handling code in ARM Trusted Firmware before 1.4 might allow attackers to write arbitrary data to secure memory, bypass the bl1_plat_mem_check protection mechanism, cause a denial of. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.0), this vulnerability is no authentication required. This Integer Overflow vulnerability could allow attackers to cause unexpected behavior through arithmetic overflow.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Integer Overflow (CWE-190), which allows attackers to cause unexpected behavior through arithmetic overflow. The BL1 FWU SMC handling code in ARM Trusted Firmware before 1.4 might allow attackers to write arbitrary data to secure memory, bypass the bl1_plat_mem_check protection mechanism, cause a denial of service, or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted AArch32 image, which triggers an integer overflow. Affected products include: Arm Arm-Trusted-Firmware. Version information: before 1.4.
RemediationAI
A vendor patch is available. Apply the latest security update as soon as possible. Validate arithmetic operations, use safe integer libraries, check bounds before allocation.
