⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Physical attacker gains full access to encrypted/locked storage devices, potentially exposing sensitive data including encryption keys, credentials, and proprietary information.
Likely Case
Malicious insider or unauthorized personnel with physical access bypasses device security controls to access restricted data.
If Mitigated
With proper physical security controls and access restrictions, impact is limited to authorized personnel who already have legitimate access.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires physical or local access to the storage device hardware, which adds complexity compared to remote vulnerabilities.
