Diferentes partes del sistema actualizan diferentes valores de PCR en el TPM, lo que da como resultado un valor \u00fanico para cada entrada de PCR. Estos PCR se utilizan luego para sellar/abrir una clave del TPM que se utiliza para cifrar/descifrar el directorio \"vault\". Este directorio \"vault\" es el punto m\u00e1s sensible del sistema y, como tal, su contenido debe estar protegido. Este mecanismo est\u00e1 se\u00f1alado en la documentaci\u00f3n de Zededa como el mecanismo de \u201cmeasured boot\u201d, dise\u00f1ado para proteger dicha \u201cvault\u201d. El c\u00f3digo responsable de generar y obtener la clave del TPM asume que se utilizan PCR SHA256 para sellar/abrir la clave y, como tal, se verifica su presencia. El problema aqu\u00ed es que la clave no se sella mediante PCR SHA256, sino mediante PCR SHA1. Esto genera varios problemas: \u2022 M\u00e1quinas que tienen sus PCR SHA256 habilitadas pero las PCR SHA1 deshabilitadas, adem\u00e1s de que no sellan sus claves en absoluto, lo que significa que la \u201cvault\u201d no est\u00e1 protegida de un atacante. \u2022 SHA1 se considera inseguro y reduce el nivel de complejidad requerido para desbloquear la clave en m\u00e1quinas que tienen sus PCR SHA1 habilitados. Un atacante puede recuperar muy f\u00e1cilmente el contenido de la \"vault\", lo que efectivamente dejar\u00e1 sin sentido el mecanismo de \"measured boot\"."}], "lastModified": "2024-11-21T08:24:30.877", "configurations": [{"nodes": [{"negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linuxfoundation:edge_virtualization_engine:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "B3C18178-A893-4EA6-8BBF-51F05CE4CB7E", "versionEndExcluding": "9.5.0"}], "operator": "OR"}]}], "sourceIdentifier": "cve@asrg.io"}
