A software tool for implementing advanced UEFI capsule updates in coreboot with EDK II, enabling secure firmware updates via fwupd.
Product Information
- Description
- Capsule-updates provides a robust framework for implementing UEFI capsule update functionality within coreboot systems utilizing EDK II components. This tool enables secure, in-field firmware updates by generating and processing UEFI firmware capsules—standardized containers for firmware payloads—that can be deployed through various mechanisms including the fwupd daemon. Key features include integration with coreboot's build system, support for authenticated capsule updates to prevent unauthorized modifications, and compatibility with existing UEFI firmware management ecosystems. The solution is particularly valuable for enterprise environments, IoT devices, and security-conscious deployments where maintaining current firmware versions without physical access is essential, offering administrators a standardized method to patch vulnerabilities and enhance system capabilities remotely.
