Fit for Detection: Hunting U-Boot Vulnerabilities at Scale
Learn how to detect U-Boot vulnerabilities at scale by extracting raw bootloaders, reconstructing synthetic ELF binaries, and applying heuristic-based VulHunt rules that work without symbols or signatures. This deep dive covers firmware extraction, architecture recovery, ELF transformation, and scalable vulnerability detection across real-world embedded devices.
