|  TSEC has access to the secure kernel carveout
 +
|  TrustZone is responsible for managing security carveouts to prevent DMA controllers from accessing the carveout which contains the kernel, sysmodules, and other critical operating system data.
 +
 +
Until [[8.0.0]], the list of devices that could access the carveout included the TSEC. However, the TSEC can bypass the SMMU when in authenticated mode by writing to a certain register. Thus, pwning nvservices would allow one to take over the TSEC, and use it to write to normally protected mmio/memory.
 +
 +
In [[8.0.0]], this was fixed by removing TSEC access, and adding TSECB access (TSECB cannot bypass the SMMU).
 +
| With access to the TSEC mmio (nvservices ROP) and code execution in TSEC Heavy Secure mode, kernel code execution, probably.
