Abstract :
An implementation of legacy BIOS Trojan is demonstrated to attest that planting malicious codes into legacy BIOS, which can be executed during runtime of BIOS and OS, is feasible. Then vulnerabilities of legacy BIOS are analyzed. To detect above vulnerabilities and malicious codes in legacy BIOS, a security detection system for legacy BIOS is designed and implemented. This detection system can be applied to products such as Award and Phoenix BIOS.
