08.06.2023 - Bypass was found and reported to WCH 09.06.2023 - WCH Confirmed the bypass and noted that newer the ISP Tool allows to set the erase length which allow to erase more than the 6-8K bytes as shown in this video. This makes the User of the CH573 responsible for the firmware protection. 6-8K bytes will be always erased.
WCH Noted that the 6-8K bytes where chosen to speed up the erasing.
As per WCH the erase length option does not need an update of the Bootloader. Tested Bootloader version: 2.80
