in the following code: |
char * crypt(const char *phrase, const char *setting); |
// stored_hash: e.g., "$1$7c71xB0y$mPkMSwwbMWgEXsyD6YVC1" |
pp = crypt("password_input", stored_hash); |
The function returns a pointer to the newly generated hash string, which is |
then compared to the stored hash string using strcmp(): |
ret = strcmp(pp, stored_hash); |
The compared strings include both the hash type identifier and the salt |
string. This explains why the backdoor checks for values beginning with |
$1$, as previously mentioned. |
For each subsequent CMP instruction that compares fragments of the hash, |
the CMP instruction must produce a match until the final piece of the hash |
is processed. Normally, a null byte (0x00) marks the end of a string, but |
the actual length can vary depending on the hash function and salt size. |
For simplicity, this backdoor prototype is specifically designed to work |
with MD5 hashes. |
----[ 3.3.2 Backdoor Implementation in RTL |
The OpenSPARC T1 is a single-issue, in-order, multi-threaded processor |
implemented in Verilog. Its main pipeline consists of six stages: Fetch, |
Switch, Decode, Execute, Memory, and Writeback. The SPARC core supports |
four strands (virtual processors), each equipped with a dedicated register |
file. |
The microarchitecture is organized into two main units: the Instruction |
Fetch Unit (IFU) and the Execution Unit (EXU). The IFU handles the Fetch, |
Switch, and Decode stages, managing instruction retrieval from cache or |
memory, selecting the next strand for execution, and decoding instructions. |
The EXU controls the Execute, Memory, and Writeback stages and contains four |
functional units: the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) for basic arithmetic and |
logic operations, the Shifter (SHFT) for bit manipulation, the Integer |
Multiplier (IMUL) for multiplication, and the Integer Divider (IDIV) for |
division. |
Other components such as the Load-Store Unit (LSU), responsible for memory |
access operations, and the Trap Logic Unit (TLU), which manages exceptions |
and interrupts. |
Our backdoor is integrated into the ALU, targeting the CMP (SUBcc) |
instruction. During execution, the malicious circuitry intercepts and |
modifies the comparison (subtraction) operation between the two operands. |
Below is the ALU module implementation: |
