Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionCVE.org
When using Arm Cortex-M Security Extensions (CMSE), Secure stack contents can be leaked to Non-secure state via floating-point registers when a Secure to Non-secure function call is made that returns a floating-point value and when this is the first use of floating-point since entering Secure state. This allows an attacker to read a limited quantity of Secure stack contents with an impact on confidentiality. This issue is specific to code generated using LLVM-based compilers.
AnalysisAI
When using Arm Cortex-M Security Extensions (CMSE), Secure stack contents can be leaked to Non-secure state via floating-point registers when a Secure to Non-secure function call is made that returns. Rated low severity (CVSS 3.7), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-226. When using Arm Cortex-M Security Extensions (CMSE), Secure stack contents can be leaked to Non-secure state via floating-point registers when a Secure to Non-secure function call is made that returns a floating-point value and when this is the first use of floating-point since entering Secure state. This allows an attacker to read a limited quantity of Secure stack contents with an impact on confidentiality. This issue is specific to code generated using LLVM-based compilers. Affected products include: Arm Arm Compiler For Embedded, Arm Arm Compiler For Embedded Fusa, Arm Arm Compiler For Functional Safety, Arm Clang.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Apply vendor patches when available. Implement network segmentation and monitoring as interim mitigations.
