Patent number: 10769280Abstract: A system and method for minimizing the likelihood that the secret key used by a bootloader is compromised is disclosed. A bootloader is installed on the device. The bootloader is a software program that performs many functions. These functions may include checking the checksum of the incoming software image for integrity, decrypting the incoming software image using a secret key, deleting data in the FLASH memory, installing the new software image in the FLASH memory and other functions. The bootloader utilizes various techniques to track the versions of the software image being installed. The method counts the number of incomplete attempts that are made when trying to update the software image. By monitoring these parameters, the bootloader can determine when a malicious actor is attempting a side channel attack. In response, the bootloader may not allow a new software image to be loaded or the secret key to be accessed.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2018Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: Silicon Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Joshua Jay Norem, Daniel Riedler, Chad Steven O'Neill
