Abstract

A method for patching a patchable function programmed in a read only memory (ROM) of a semiconductor device by using firmware loaded onto a first memory includes receiving an encrypted and digitally signed firmware image; generating a verification result by verifying the firmware image by using a public key; decrypting the firmware image by using a secret key depending on the verification result; loading firmware decrypted from the firmware image onto the first memory; and running a replacement function corresponding to an identifier of the patchable function included in the firmware, when the patchable function is called.
