Sin embargo, hay un par de rutas de c\u00f3digo en el kernel donde los nombres de archivo de firmware contienen componentes de cadena que se pasan desde un dispositivo o un espacio de usuario semiprivilegiado; los que pude encontrar (sin contar las interfaces que requieren privilegios de root) son: - lpfc_sli4_request_firmware_update() parece construir el nombre de archivo de firmware a partir de \"ModelName\", una cadena que se analiz\u00f3 previamente a partir de alg\u00fan descriptor (\"Vital Product Data\") en lpfc_fill_vpd() - nfp_net_fw_find() parece construir un nombre de archivo de firmware a partir de un nombre de modelo que proviene de nfp_hwinfo_lookup(pf->hwinfo, \"nffw.partno\"), que creo que analiza alg\u00fan descriptor que se ley\u00f3 desde el dispositivo. (Pero este caso probablemente no sea explotable porque la cadena de formato se parece a \"netronome/nic_%s\", y no deber\u00eda haber ninguna *carpeta* que comience con \"netronome/nic_\".
