SPDM-WiD: Uma Ferramenta para Inspeção de Pacotes do Security Protocol Data Model (SPDM)

Network protocol implementations need to be tested in conjunction with good debugging tools to ensure that packets exchange follows specifications. Although packet sniffers like Wireshark can capture any packet transiting a network interface, the absence of protocol-specific dissectors makes debugging tedious and error-prone. This paper presents the SPDM-WiD (SPDM Wireshark Dissector) tool, a dissector for packet inspection of the Security Protocol Data Model (SPDM), an open communication standard for hardware and firmware authentication. Experiments carried out attest to the effectiveness of the tool and its usefulness in test scenarios for an SPDM implementation.
