      <title>CVE-2026-11835 — Caliptra Update-Reset Secure-Boot Bypass via Attacker-Chosen AXI Staging Address (TOCTOU)</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-11835</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Caliptra Core ROM&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Time-of-check time-of-use (TOCTOU) vulnerability combined with missing input validation in Caliptra Core ROM (UpdateResetFlow::run()) in subsystem mode allows a compromised local attacker to silently bypass secure boot by supplying an AXI staging address that is not validated against the strap-configured SS_EXTERNAL_STAGING_AREA_BASE_ADDR, enabling firmware to be modified between verification and loading into ICCM. Attestation continues to report the originally verified image digest, masking the compromise. Exploitation requires a compromised MCU firmware with AXI manager access to unprotected SRAM reachable by Caliptra.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This issue affects Core ROM: 2.1.0 through 2.1.1.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
