The Binarly REsearch team has consistently uncovered security vulnerabilities in the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) firmware -- a critical component of modern data center infrastructure. These vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely by threat actors, posing significant risk to enterprises.
In a previous report, “Old But Gold: The Underestimated Potency of Decades-Old Attacks on BMC Security,” we documented the BMC architecture in detail and showed that it is still possible to find classes of vulnerabilities known from the early 2000s.
Apple addressed a recently disclosed Bluetooth keyboard injection vulnerability with the release of Magic Keyboard firmware.
The Binarly REsearch team investigates vulnerable image parsing components across the entire UEFI firmware ecosystem and finds all major device manufacturers are impacted on both x86 and ARM-based devices.

While Intel is still investigating the incident, the security industry is bracing itself for years of potential firmware insecurity if the keys indeed were exposed.
The potential leak from MSI Gaming of signing keys for an important security feature in Intel-based firmware could cast a shadow on firmware security for years to come and leave devices that use the keys highly vulnerable to cyberattacks, security experts say.
On 2022-12-11, I decided to setup Secure Boot on my new desktop with a help of sbctl. Unfortunately I have found that my firmware was… accepting every OS image I gave it, no matter if it was trusted or not. It wasn't the first time that I have been self-signing Secure Boot, I wasn't doing it wrong.
As I have later discovered on 2022-12-16, it wasn't just broken firmware, MSI had changed their Secure Boot defaults to allow booting on security violations(!!).
