Summary
Privasys rustls, a maintained fork of the rustls TLS library, before privasys-v0.8.1 emits RA-TLS challenge certificates whose quote ReportData is bound to the certificate public key and client nonce but not to the active TLS session. This is an origin validation error (CWE-346). An attacker who has obtained an enclave TLS private key can relay a genuine quote onto another connection, so a relying party accepts an attacker-terminated connection as the attested enclave.

Description from the CNA
Privasys rustls is a maintained fork of the rustls TLS library that adds RA-TLS challenge and channel-binding support. Prior to privasys-v0.8.1, the fork emitted RA-TLS challenge certificates whose quote ReportData was bound to the certificate public key and client nonce but not to the active TLS session. An attacker who obtained an enclave TLS private key could relay a genuine quote onto another connection, causing a relying party to accept an attacker-terminated connection as the attested enclave. This issue is fixed in privasys-v0.8.1.
