CVE-2023-43633

The CVE concerns the Pillar Eve container in EVE OS. On boot, it checks /config/GlobalConfig/global.json and, if present, overrides device configuration, enabling debug functions such as SSH via debug.enable.ssh, USB keyboard via debug.enable.usb, and VNC via app.allow.vnc. This can occur without...

CVE-2023-43633 Debug Functions Unlockable Without Triggering Measured Boot

On boot, the Pillar eve container checks for the existence and content of “/config/GlobalConfig/global.json”. If the file exists, it overrides the existing configuration on the device on boot. This allows an attacker to change the system’s configuration, which also includes some debug functions...
