Vault Key Sealed With SHA1 PCRs
The measured boot solution implemented in EVE OS leans on a PCR locking mechanism.
Different parts of the system update different PCR values in the TPM, resulting in a unique value for each PCR entry.
These PCRs are then used in order to seal/unseal a key from the TPM which is used to encrypt/decrypt the “vault” directory.
This “vault” directory is the most sensitive point in the system and as such, its content should be protected.
This mechanism is noted in Zededa’s documentation as the “measured boot” mechanism, designed to protect said “vault”.
The code that’s responsible for generating and fetching the key from the TPM assumes that SHA256 PCRs are used in order to seal/unseal the key, and as such their presence is being checked.
The issue here is that the key is not sealed using SHA256 PCRs, but using SHA1 PCRs. This leads to several issues:
• Machines that have their SHA256 PCRs enabled but SHA1 PCRs disabled, as
