Privileged device-tree corruption via UEFI authorization failure

Published Oct 14, 2025 · Updated Oct 14, 2025

Improper authorization in NVIDIA Jetson Linux UEFI 35.6.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to corrupt the Linux Device Tree. NVIDIA has not disclosed which UEFI authorization check is missing or how privileged input is accepted before the Device Tree is modified. High-privilege network access is required; successful exploitation tampers with boot configuration and interrupts service.
