CVE-2019-14358

On Archos Safe-T devices, a side channel for the row-based OLED display was found. The power consumption of each row-based display cycle depends on the number of illuminated pixels, allowing a partial recovery of display contents. For example, a hardware implant in the USB cable might be able to...

CVE-2019-14360

On Hyundai Pay Kasse HK-1000 devices, there is a side-channel vulnerability in the row-based OLED display: power consumption per display cycle leaks information about the number of illuminated pixels. This can enable partial recovery of display contents, and could let an attacker with control ove...

CVE-2019-18673

On SHIFT BitBox02 devices, a side channel for the row-based OLED display was found. The power consumption of each row-based display cycle depends on the number of illuminated pixels, allowing a partial recovery of display contents. For example, a hardware implant in the USB cable might be able to...

CVE-2019-18673

CVE-2019-18673 affects SHIFT BitBox02 devices and describes a side-channel where the power draw of the row-based OLED display varies with the number of illuminated pixels. This enables partial recovery of display contents if an attacker has sufficient control over the device’s USB connection to m...

CVE-2019-15098

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of the ath6kl wireless network driver implementation, which could allow an attacker with physical access with custom USB hardware to plug into a rogue USB device that can create a condition where the kernel will panic. Mitigation No mitigation...

Buffer overflow

DISPUTED On Coldcard MK1 and MK2 devices, a side channel for the row-based OLED display was found. The power consumption of each row-based display cycle depends on the number of illuminated pixels, allowing a partial recovery of display contents. For example, a hardware implant in the USB cable...
