Title
Missing Protection against Hardware Reverse Engineering Using Integrated Circuit Imaging Techniques for Boston Scientific Zoom Latitude
Summary
An attacker with physical access to the device can extract the binary that checks for the hardware key and reverse engineer it, which could be used to create a physical duplicate of a valid hardware key. The hardware key allows access to special settings when inserted.
Severity ?
