Abstract: ts: The Texas Instruments MSP430 low-power microcontroller is used in many medical, industrial, and consumer devices. When its JTAG fuse is blown, the device's firmware is kept private by a serial bootstrap loader (BSL), certain revisions of which are vulnerable to a side-channel timing analysis attack. This lecture concerns the attack in both theory and implementation, including the non-standard serial traffic necessary to expose the password by timing.
