Identifies abnormal changes in clock speed, indicative of clock glitching attempts. Clock Glitching is a fault injection method where an attacker or a security evaluator alters the operating frequency of a target.

| EX-0005 | Exploit Hardware/Firmware Corruption | The adversary achieves execution or effect by corrupting or steering behavior beneath the software stack, in device firmware, programmable logic, or the hardware itself. Examples include tampering with firmware images or configuration blobs burned into non-volatile memory; targeting MCU/SoC boot ROM fallbacks; editing FPGA bitstreams or partial-reconfiguration frames; or leveraging physical phenomena and timing to flip bits or skip checks. Because these actions occur below or alongside the operating system and application FSW, traditional endpoint safeguards see normal interfaces while trust anchors are already altered. | |
