CWE-1192

Improper Identifier for IP Block used in System-On-Chip (SOC)

High

Description

The System-on-Chip (SoC) does not have unique, immutable identifiers for each of its components.

Potential Impact

How to Fix

Architecture and Design

Every identity generated in the SoC should be unique and immutable in hardware. The actions that an IP is trusted or not trusted should be clearly defined, implemented, configured, and tested. If the definition is implemented via a policy, then the policy should be immutable or protected with clear authentication and authorization.
