CVE-2017-13095
The P1735 IEEE standard describes flawed methods for encrypting electronic-design intellectual property (IP), including modification of a license-deny response to a license grant
In short
The IEEE P1735 standard for protecting electronic design files has serious flaws in its encryption method that can allow attackers to recover the original unencrypted files without having the encryption key. This puts valuable intellectual property at risk of theft.
Technical detail
CVE-2017-13095 describes cryptographic weaknesses in IEEE P1735 implementations used for encrypting electronic-design IP, including insufficient protection against license-response manipulation and plaintext recovery attacks. An attacker can exploit these flaws to extract protected IP without possession of the encryption key, potentially compromising confidentiality of proprietary designs.
Summary generated and translated by AI from the official description.
The P1735 IEEE standard describes flawed methods for encrypting electronic-design intellectual property (IP), as well as the management of access rights for such IP, including modification of a license-deny response to a license grant. The methods are flawed and, in the most egregious cases, enable attack vectors that allow recovery of the entire underlying plaintext IP. Implementations of IEEE P1735 may be weak to cryptographic attacks that allow an attacker to obtain plaintext intellectual property without the key, among other impacts.
