Threat Score
A hardware hacker leveraged SWD access and a vulnerability in the cryptographic processor interface of Nintendo’s Alarmo clock to obtain its AES-128-CTR key, reverse the boot process, and load custom firmware (demonstrated with a USB-delivered cat image payload); released tooling for payload testing and AES key brute-forcing suggests broader custom code development is imminent, while Nintendo has not yet commented.
