# OptionROM
## Introduction
This plugin is also able to read and parse the firmware of some PCI devices
which allows some host state verification to be done.
## GUID Generation
These devices use the standard USB DeviceInstanceId values, e.g.
* `PCI\VEN_%04X&DEV_%04X`
## Vendor ID Security
The device is not upgradable and thus requires no vendor ID set.
## External Interface Access
This plugin requires read access to the rom file of PCI devices (`/sys/class/pci_bus/*/device/rom`)
