BadUSB is a computer security attack using USB devices that are programmed with malicious software. For example, USB flash drives can contain a programmable Intel 8051 microcontroller, which can be reprogrammed, turning a USB flash drive into a malicious device. Karsten Nohl stated: "It's the struggle between simplicity and security. The power of USB is that you plug it in and it just works. This simplicity is exactly what's enabling these attacks."

  • BadUSB is a computer security attack using USB devices that are programmed with malicious software. For example, USB flash drives can contain a programmable Intel 8051 microcontroller, which can be reprogrammed, turning a USB flash drive into a malicious device. The BadUSB attack was first revealed during a Black Hat talk in 2014 by Karsten Nohl, and . Two months after the talk, other researchers published code that can be used to exploit the vulnerability. In 2017, version 1.0 of the USG dongle, which acts like a hardware firewall, was released, which is designed to prevent BadUSB style attacks. Karsten Nohl stated: "It's the struggle between simplicity and security. The power of USB is that you plug it in and it just works. This simplicity is exactly what's enabling these attacks." Author Catalin Cimpanu from ZDNet noted that the BadUSB attack is "incredibly rare". Though, in 2020, an attack was found in the wild where a hospitality provider was attacked using a fake gift card. The attack downloaded malware through a PowerShell command which was typed in through the programmed keystrokes in the flash drive. (en)
