CVSS v3.1

Official Description

NXP LPC55S66JBD64, LPC55S66JBD100, LPC55S66JEV98, LPC55S69JBD64, LPC55S69JBD100, and LPC55S69JEV98 microcontrollers (ROM version 1B) have a buffer overflow in parsing SB2 updates before the signature is verified. This can allow an attacker to achieve non-persistent code execution via a crafted unsigned update.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2022-22819 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.

Exploitation does not require any privileges, though user interaction (Required) is needed, which slightly reduces the risk of mass automated attacks.

A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 7.8.
