A stack consumption issue in sqfs_size in Das U-Boot before 2025.01-rc1 occurs via a crafted squashfs filesystem with deep symlink nesting.

An integer overflow in sqfs_resolve_symlink in Das U-Boot before 2025.01-rc1 occurs via a crafted squashfs filesystem with an inode size of 0xffffffff, resulting in a malloc of zero and resultant memory overwrite.

An integer overflow in sqfs_inode_size in Das U-Boot before 2025.01-rc1 occurs in the symlink size calculation via a crafted squashfs filesystem.

squashfs filesystem implementation of U-Boot versions from v2020.10-rc2 to v2022.07-rc5 contains a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability due to a defect in the metadata reading process. Loading a specially crafted squashfs image may lead to a denial-of-service (DoS) condition or arbitrary code execution.

Das U-Boot from v2020.10 to v2022.07-rc3 was discovered to contain an out-of-bounds write via the function sqfs_readdir().

nfs_lookup_reply in net/nfs.c in Das U-Boot through 2022.04 (and through 2022.07-rc2) has an unbounded memcpy with a failed length check, leading to a buffer overflow. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2019-14196.

The boot loader in Das U-Boot before 2021.04-rc2 mishandles use of unit addresses in a FIT.

The boot loader in Das U-Boot before 2021.04-rc2 mishandles a modified FIT.

A lack of signature verification in the bootloader of DENX Software Engineering Das U-Boot (U-Boot) v1.1.3 allows attackers to install crafted firmware files, leading to arbitrary code execution.

In Das U-Boot through 2020.01, a double free has been found in the cmd/gpt.c do_rename_gpt_parts() function. Double freeing may result in a write-what-where condition, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code. NOTE: this vulnerablity was introduced when attempting to fix a memory leak identified by static analysis.

Das U-Boot versions 2019.07-rc1 through 2019.07-rc4 can double-free a cached block of data when listing files in a crafted ext4 filesystem.

gen_rand_uuid in lib/uuid.c in Das U-Boot v2014.04 through v2019.04 lacks an srand call, which allows attackers to determine UUID values in scenarios where CONFIG_RANDOM_UUID is enabled, and Das U-Boot is relied upon for UUID values of a GUID Partition Table of a boot device.

Das U-Boot 2016.11-rc1 through 2019.04 mishandles the ext4 64-bit extension, resulting in a buffer overflow.

An exploitable vulnerability exists in the verified boot protection of the Das U-Boot from version 2013.07-rc1 to 2014.07-rc2. The affected versions lack proper FIT signature enforcement, which allows an attacker to bypass U-Boot's verified boot and execute an unsigned kernel, embedded in a legacy image format. To trigger this vulnerability, a local attacker needs to be able to supply the image to boot.

DENX U-Boot through 2018.09-rc1 has a locally exploitable buffer overflow via a crafted kernel image because filesystem loading is mishandled.

DENX U-Boot through 2018.09-rc1 has a remotely exploitable buffer overflow via a malicious TFTP server because TFTP traffic is mishandled. Also, local exploitation can occur via a crafted kernel image.

U-Boot contains a CWE-20: Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Verified boot signature validation that can result in Bypass verified boot. This attack appear to be exploitable via Specially crafted FIT image and special device memory functionality.

Das U-Boot's AES-CBC encryption feature improperly handles an error condition and may allow attacks against the underlying cryptographic implementation and allow an attacker to decrypt the data

Das U-Boot is a device bootloader that can read its configuration from an AES encrypted file. Devices that make use of Das U-Boot's AES-CBC encryption feature using environment encryption (i.e., setting the configuration parameter CONFIG_ENV_AES=y) read environment variables from disk as the encrypted disk image is processed. An attacker with physical access to the device can manipulate the encrypted environment data to include a crafted two-byte sequence which triggers an error in environment variable parsing. This error condition is improperly handled by Das U-Boot, resulting in an immediate process termination with a debugging message.

Das U-Boot's AES-CBC encryption feature uses a zero (0) initialization vector that may allow attacks against the underlying cryptographic implementation and allow an attacker to decrypt the data

Das U-Boot is a device bootloader that can read its configuration from an AES encrypted file. For devices utilizing this environment encryption mode, U-Boot's use of a zero initialization vector may allow attacks against the underlying cryptographic implementation and allow an attacker to decrypt the data. Das U-Boot's AES-CBC encryption feature uses a zero (0) initialization vector. This allows an attacker to perform dictionary attacks on encrypted data produced by Das U-Boot to learn information about the encrypted data.
