Hacking Embedded Devices: UART Consoles

Hardware hacking techniques can provide root-level access to embedded devices through UART console interfaces. By physically inspecting circuit boards and identifying specific pins, access to hidden device consoles can be obtained. The methodology involves using tools like oscilloscopes and logic analyzers to locate and interact with serial interfaces on devices such as routers and modems.
