Yocto Security OTA
Workflow
- Identify threat model, update model, physical access assumptions, recovery path, and regulatory constraints.
- Inspect image package set, enabled services, network listeners, users, credentials, SSH policy, firewall, and debug features.
- Check Yocto release security status, CVE tooling, license manifests, and SBOM/SPDX output.
- Select update strategy: full image, package feed, A/B slots, bootloader-managed rollback, OSTree, RAUC, Mender, SWUpdate, or vendor OTA.
- Tie secure boot and artifact signing to key management and manufacturing flows.
- Verify with boot tests, rollback tests, power-cut tests, and update failure tests.

Guardrails
- Do not promise security from package removal alone.
- Do not add firewall rules without documenting network services and default policy.
- Do not recommend OTA updates without rollback and recovery planning.
- Do not put signing keys, credentials, or production secrets in layers or CI logs.
