GlitchLab: A Hardware-in-the-Loop Optimizer for Physical Fault Injection
GlitchLab automates physical fault-injection parameter optimisation in hardware-in-the-loop setups, enabling systematic discovery of glitch attacks that bypass secure boot and key storage.

arXiv:2609.00502v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physical fault injection can turn brief hardware disturbances into security failures such as key recovery, authentication bypass, and unintended control flow. Finding effective faults is difficult because many interacting parameters create a large search space, successful settings are sparse and target-dependent, and each hardware attempt provides limited feedback. Under fixed testing time, efficient search is therefore critical for assessing faul
Editorial Analysis
As IoT and embedded devices proliferate in industrial environments, automated fault-injection tools lower the bar for hardware-level attacks on secure enclaves.
