Two buffer overflow vulnerabilities were discovered in the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 reference library specification, currently at Level 00, Revision 01.59 November 2019. An attacker who has access to a TPM-command interface can send maliciously-crafted commands to the module and trigger these vulnerabilities. This allows either read-only access to sensitive data or overwriting of normally protected data that is only available to the TPM (e.g., cryptographic keys).

Over the past few months, I’ve been coordinating the disclosure of a new vulnerability that I’ve found. Today is the disclosure date, so I am excited that I can finally talk about what I’ve been working on! The vulnerability has been assigned CVE-2022-37454 and bug reports are available for Python, PHP, PyPy, SHA3 for Ruby, and XKCP.
