Last modified

CVE-2006-1538 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The Enova X-Wall ASIC encrypts with a key obtained via Microwire from a serial EEPROM that stores the key in cleartext, which allows local users with physical access to obtain the key by reading and duplicating an EEPROM that is located on a hardware token, or by sniffing the Microwire bus.. EPSS estimates a 0.34% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
