Problems solved by technology

[0003] Embedded device security concerns are on the rise, and recently based on the analysis of individual firmware images, attention has been drawn to the insecurities posed by embedded devices
However, the research on vulnerability analysis methods for embedded devices cannot be directly carried out, because embedded devices are completely different from other devices, and it is difficult to design a standard analysis method, so the research on embedded devices is difficult to repeat, and the results cannot be compared with each other. comparison, which makes security analysis difficult

Embodiment 1

[0032] An embedded system firmware security analysis method and system, the evaluation steps of which are: determining factor set A, determining comment set B, determining the weight C of each factor, calculating the relative size D of weights between evaluation indicators and comprehensive evaluation E, determining The factor set A is the evaluation index system set U={u 1 ,u 2 ,...,u n}. (For example, the firmware is analyzed by using the TROMMEL tool here, and 13 major vulnerability threats U={u are listed in the firmware analysis report 1 ,u 2 ,...,u 13}), to determine that the comment set B often forms different grades due to the different evaluation values ​​of each index. For example, the evaluation of safety level includes ultra-high risk, high risk, medium risk, low risk, safe and so on. A collection of different decisions is called a collection of comments. Write it here as:

[0033] V = {super high risk v 1 , high risk v 2 , medium risk v 3 , low risk v ...

Abstract

The invention discloses an embedded system firmware security analysis method and system, wherein the evaluation steps comprise determining a factor set, determining a comment set, determining weightsof each factor, calculating relative weights between evaluation indexes and comprehensive evaluation, and determining the factor set, that is, an evaluation index system set U. For example, a TROMML tool is used to analyze firmware, and the firmware analysis report lists 13 main vulnerability threats U, and determining that the evaluation value of each indicator is different, so that the evaluation value of each indicator will often form a different level. For example, the evaluation of safety grade has super high risk, high risk, medium risk, low risk, safety, etc. A collection of different decisions is called a set of comments.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field, in particular to an embedded system firmware security analysis method and system. Background technique [0002] Embedded systems are systems used to control or monitor large-scale equipment such as machines, devices, and factories. The definition of embedded system generally accepted in China is: a special computer system centered on application, based on computer technology, software and hardware can be tailored, and meet the strict requirements of application system on function, reliability, cost, volume, power consumption, etc. Embedded systems are increasingly present in our daily lives. It is at the heart of some consumer-oriented general-off-the-shelf devices such as watches, microwave ovens, VCRs, automobiles, printers, cell phones, etc., as well as non-consumer-oriented devices such as video surveillance systems, medical implants, Play an important role in automotive components, SCADA and PLC equipment.
