Host Based Firmware Analyzer

Brian Richardson edited this page Mar 4, 2019 · 4 revisions

Overview

Host-based Firmware Analyzer (HBFA) enables advanced testing of UEFI drivers and UEFI Platform Initialization (PI) drivers in the developer’s OS environment. This test system is scheduled to be contributed to TianoCore by Intel in Q2 of 2019.

Background

Computer platform firmware is a critical element in the root-of-trust. Firmware developers need a robust tool set to analyze and test firmware components, enabling detection of security issues prior to platform integration and helping to reduce validation costs. HBFA allows developers to run open source advanced tools, such as fuzz testing, symbolic execution, and address sanitizers in a system environment.
