Keypad Secure Usb 3.2 Gen 1 Firmware

An issue was discovered in certain Verbatim drives through 2022-03-31. The security feature for lockout (e.g., requiring a reformat of the drive after 20 failed unlock attempts) does not work as specified. More than 20 attempts may be made. This affects Keypad Secure USB 3.2 Gen 1 Drive Part Number #49428 and Store 'n' Go Secure Portable HDD GD25LK01-3637-C VER4.0.Show less

An issue was discovered in certain Verbatim drives through 2022-03-31. Due to an insecure design, they allow an offline brute-force attack for determining the correct passcode, and thus gaining unauthorized access to the stored encrypted data.

An issue was discovered in certain Verbatim drives through 2022-03-31. Due to insufficient firmware validation, an attacker can store malicious firmware code for the USB-to-SATA bridge controller on the USB drive (e.g., by leveraging physical access during the supply chain). This code is then executed.

An issue was discovered in certain Verbatim drives through 2022-03-31. Due to the use of an insecure encryption AES mode (Electronic Codebook, aka ECB), an attacker may be able to extract information even from encrypted data, for example by observing repeating byte patterns. The firmware of the USB-to-SATA bridge controller INIC-3637EN uses AES-256 with the ECB mode. This operation mode of block ciphers (e.g., AES) always encrypts identical plaintext data, in this case blocks of 16 bytes, to identical ciphertext data. For some data, for instance bitmap images, the lack of the cryptographic property called diffusion, within ECB, can leak sensitive information even in encrypted data. Thus, the use of the ECB operation mode can put the confidentiality of specific information at risk, even in an encrypted form.
