NVIDIA Jetson contains a vulnerability in CBoot, where the PCIe controller is initialized without IOMMU, which may allow an attacker with physical access to the target device to read and write to arbitrary memory. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to code execution, denial of service, information disclosure, and loss of integrity.

Weakness

The product establishes a communication channel to (or from) an endpoint for privileged or protected operations, but it does not properly ensure that it is communicating with the correct endpoint.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Jetson_linux Nvidia * 32.7.4 (excluding)

Extended Description

Attackers might be able to spoof the intended endpoint from a different system or process, thus gaining the same level of access as the intended endpoint. While this issue frequently involves authentication between network-based clients and servers, other types of communication channels and endpoints can have this weakness.
