The back door would have to do some complicated pattern matching against the bitstream to identify potential "hook" or extraction points. Of course, built in crypto modules could not be trusted. I wouldn't trust much more than the LUTs! I could even see how a multiply block may be backdoored.
- jevinskie 13y agoOf course, I am ignoring the proprietary tool chains in all of this. But again that depends on being able to find interesting stuff in your IP to backdoor. I would recommend using vendor IP as little as possible. Don't use a vendor Ethernet module! I could see that as a great place to attach a scan-chain backdoor.
