EMBA: OPEN-SOURCE SECURITY ANALYZER FOR EMBEDDED DEVICES



The EMBA open-source security analyzer is tailored as the central firmware
analysis tool for penetration testers and product security groups. It assists
throughout the security evaluation procedure, extracting firmware, conducting
static and dynamic analysis through emulation, and creating a web-based report.




EMBA FEATURES

EMBA identifies potential vulnerabilities and weak points in firmware, such as
insecure binaries, outdated software components, scripts that might be
susceptible to attack, or embedded hard-coded passwords. This command line tool
also offers the option to produce a user-friendly web report for more in-depth
analysis.

Michael Messner, the creator of EMBA, told Help Net Security that this is a
fully-fledged firmware security analyzer that goes far beyond creating an SBOM.
Some of the unique features are:

 * Enhanced firmware extraction process
 * UEFI analysis
 * AI support
 * Firmware diffing mechanisms
 * User mode emulation
 * System emulation
 * Easy-to-read web report


PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

“Our goal is to establish EMBA in the community further and that more and more
people are using it to enhance the security of products in the IoT field and the
OT, ICS, and KRITIS environments. From a technical perspective, we will further
improve EMBA as scanning the backend in every area,” Messner concluded.

EMBA is available for free download on GitHub.
