Query regarding setting ESP32 eFuses for restricting USB firmware access

Postby hamzaabbasi2014 » Thu Jun 01, 2023 8:37 pm

Hello,

I am currently working on a project where I need to restrict the ability to read and write firmware through the USB interface on the ESP32. To achieve this, I have attempted to set the following eFuses for experimentation purposes: UART_DOWNLOAD_DIS (BLOCK0), DISABLE_DL_ENCRYPT (BLOCK0), and DISABLE_DL_DECRYPT (BLOCK0). However, despite setting these eFuses, I am still able to burn code into the ESP32.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance in identifying what might be causing this issue. Am I setting the correct eFuses for my requirement? If not, could you please advise me on the correct eFuses to set in order to prevent USB firmware access?

Thank you for your time and expertise.
