CVE-2026-11835

Caliptra Core ROM (2.1.0–2.1.1) contains a TOCTOU vulnerability in UpdateResetFlow::run() that, with missing input validation, lets a compromised MCU firmware with AXI manager access inject an unvalidated AXI staging address. This bypasses secure boot by not validating against SS_EXTERNAL_STAGING...

CVE-2026-11835

Time-of-check time-of-use TOCTOU vulnerability combined with missing input validation in Caliptra Core ROM UpdateResetFlow::run in subsystem mode allows a compromised local attacker to silently bypass secure boot by supplying an AXI staging address that is not validated against the strap-configur...

CVE-2026-11836

Insufficient verification of data authenticity in Caliptra Core ROM and Core Firmware validatedebugunlocktoken in subsystem mode allows an attacker with access to the integrator's debug unlock signing service to unlock production debug on an unintended device by presenting a valid token issued fo...

CVE-2026-11836

The CVE concerns Caliptra Core ROM and Core Firmware in subsystem mode, where validate_debug_unlock_token() fails to bind the token to a specific device.
