When hardware comes with multiple levels of firmware, there is hardly any difference.
- naasking 10y agoA search for "linux" in NVD returned over 4,500 entries. "firmware" has barely 900. So I'd say there's definitely a meaningful difference, and operating system kernels have been used in firmware (Linux and L4 have at least), so formally verifying kernels can eliminate firmware vulnerabilities too.
