MEMORY DEVICE AND SCRIPT-EXECUTION CONTROL METHOD
A memory device according to an embodiment includes a calculator and a storage unit. The calculator encrypts a first script to a first hash key. The storage unit stores therein a second hash key obtained by encrypting a second script. The calculator compares the first hash key with the second hash key in order to control execution of the first script.
1 . A memory device comprising:
a calculator that encrypts a first script to a first hash key; and
a storage unit that stores therein a second hash key obtained by encrypting a second script, wherein
the calculator compares the first hash key with the second hash key in order to control execution of the first script.
2 . The memory device of claim 1 , wherein when the first hash key is different from the second hash key, the calculator restricts execution of the first script.
3 . The memory device of claim 1 , further comprising a signature-character-information storage unit that stores therein signature character information capable of encrypting the second script to the second hash key, wherein
the calculator encrypts the first script to the first hash key based on the signature character information.
4 . The memory device of claim 2 , further comprising:
a communication unit; and
a secret-information storage unit that stores therein secret information to be used for access of the communication unit to a network, wherein
when the first hash key is different from the second hash key, the calculator does not execute a script capable of accessing the secret-information storage unit included in the first script.
5 . The memory device of claim 1 , wherein
the storage unit stores therein the first script, and
the memory device further comprises an interface that permits read and write access to the storage unit from outside.
6 . The memory device of claim 3 , wherein the signature-character-information storage unit cannot be accessed for read and write from outside.
7 . The memory device of claim 6 , further comprising a communication unit, wherein
the signature-character-information storage unit cannot be accessed for read and write from outside through the communication unit.
8 . The memory device of claim 6 , further comprising an interface that permits read and write access to the storage unit from outside, wherein
the signature-character-information storage unit cannot be accessed for read and write from outside through the interface.
9 . The memory device of claim 1 , wherein
the first hash key is information uniquely corresponding to the first script, and
the second hash key is information uniquely corresponding to the second script.
10 . A script-execution control method comprising:
storing a second hash key obtained by encrypting a second script in a storage unit;
encrypting a first script to a first hash key; and
comparing the first hash key with the second hash key in order to control execution of the first script.
11 . The method of claim 10 , comprising restricting execution of the first script, when the first hash key is different from the second hash key.
12 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
storing signature character information capable of encrypting the second script to the second hash key in a signature-character-information storage unit; and
encrypting the first script to the first hash key based on the signature character information.
13 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
storing secret information to be used for access of a communication unit to a network in a secret-information storage unit; and
not executing a script capable of accessing the secret information included in the first script, when the first hash key is different from the second hash key.
14 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising storing the first script in the storage unit, wherein
the storage unit can be accessed for read and write from outside through an interface.
15 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the signature-character-information storage unit cannot be accessed for read and write from outside.
16 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the signature-character-information storage unit cannot be accessed for read and write from outside through a communication unit.
17 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the signature-character-information storage unit cannot be accessed for read and write from outside through an interface.
18 . The method of claim 10 , wherein
the first hash key is information uniquely corresponding to the first script, and
the second hash key is information uniquely corresponding to the second script.
