UEFI Firmware Fuzzing with Simics Virtual Platform
UEFI Firmware Fuzzing with Simics Virtual Platform Zhenkun Yang, Yuriy Viktorov, Jin Yang, Jiewen Yao and Vincent Zimmer Intel Corporation fzhenkun.yang, yuriy.viktorov, jin.yang, jiewen.yao, [email protected] Abstract—This paper presents a fuzzing framework for Unified write everything on the platform, while being invisible to OS Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) BIOS with the Simics vir- and anti-virus software. tual platform. Firmware has increasingly become an attack target Software community has common practices and great tools as operating systems are getting more and more secure. Due to its special execution environment and the extensive interaction available for quality assurance. For example, debugging and with hardware, UEFI firmware is difficult to test compared to profiling tools are widely used for software development. More user-level applications running on operating systems. Fortunately, advanced techniques such as fuzzing, symbolic execution virtual platforms are widely used to enable early software and and static analysis are becoming popular. However, firmware firmware development by modeling the target hardware platform development and validation community faces numerous chal- in its virtual environment before silicon arrives. Virtual platforms play a critical role in left shifting UEFI firmware validation lenges applying those tools due to the special execution to pre-silicon phase. We integrated the fuzzing capability into environments firmware is running on. The execution regime of Simics virtual platform to allow users to fuzz UEFI firmware boot firmware does not resemble any known operating system code with high-fidelity hardware models provided by Simics. runtime, such as Linux or Windows, thus requiring custom, We demonstrated the ability to automatically detect previously bespoke solutions. -

Bringing the Openbmc for Platform Manage- Ment System in Telco Cloud
Rongqiang Zhang Bringing the OpenBMC for Platform Manage- ment System in Telco Cloud Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Master of Engineering Information Technology Master’s Thesis 30 Apr 2019 Abstract Rongqiang Zhang Author(s) Bringing the OpenBMC for Platform Man-agement System in Title Telco Cloud Number of Pages 88 pages + 0 appendices Date 30 Apr 2019 Degree Master of Engineering Degree Programme Information Technology Specialisation option Networking and Services Ville Jääskeläinen, Head of Degree Program Instructor(s) Zinaida Grabovskaia, PhL, Senior Lecturer Antti Koivumäki, Senior Lecturer Ari Helminen, Business Manager The current platform management system in Telco cloud infrastructure is based on closed firmware stack. With the upcoming 5G, this closed firmware stack has created several tech- nology and business problems. The major problems are hardware-software vendor lock-in, long lead time for feature development and bug fixing, and security risks. The objective of this study is to evaluate the possibility to bring an Open Source software stack for platform management system and baseboard management controller in Telco cloud. The study was divided into 3 parts. First part is to analyse the current state and project specification. Second part is to introduce and evaluate the OpenBMC, an open source soft- ware stack for the objective of this study. Third part is Proof of Concept to run OpenBMC on Telco.

Defending Against Out-Of-Band Management BMC Attacks
Defending Against Out-of-Band Management BMC Attacks Lee Fisher April 2019 LinuxFest NorthWest "Imagine trying to secure a computer with a small but powerful parasitic server on its motherboard; a bloodsucking leech that can't be turned off and has no documentation; you can't login, patch, or fix problems on it; server-based defensive, audit, or anti-malware software can’t be used for protection; its design is secret, implementation old, and it can fully control the computer's hardware and software; and it shares passwords with a bunch of other important servers, stores them in clear text for attackers to access. Not to mention it was designed for full control, remote management and monitoring, and it’s pretty damn good at it." --Dan Farmer, 2013 Agenda ● BMC/LOM concepts ● MC/SP (Intel ME/AMT, AMD PSP, Apple T2, ...) ● IPMI ● Intel SMM ● WS-MAN ● SMASH and DASH ● OpenBMC ● Redfish ● “IPMI++” (HP iLO, Dell iDRAC, ….) Credits ● All security guidance in this talk comes from existing BMC security research from: ● Dan Farmer, HD Moore, Matias Soler, Nicolas Waisman, Fabien Périgaud, Alexandre Gazet, Joffrey Czarny, Adrien Guinet, Jesse Michael, Mickey Shkatov, Oleksandr Bazhaniuk, ...and others that I am forgetting (sorry) CPU (and SMM) ● In early systems, the CPU was in charge of everything. Via the CPU, the firmware and OS code talked to the registers, RAM, and I/O busses. The CPU was in charge of system security. – This is the traditional model that attackers use, OS/app-level malware. ● On modern Intel (and AMD) systems, in addition to normal CPU mode, the CPU has a new mode, SMM (Systems Management Mode). -
