Affected packages
• PyPI keylime: >= 7.12.0, < 7.12.1 → fixed in 7.12.1
Description
Impact
The Keylime `registrar` implemented more strict type checking on version 7.12.0. As a result, when updated to version 7.12.0, the `registrar` will not accept the format of the data previously stored in the database by versions >= 7.8.0, raising an exception.
This makes the Keylime `registrar` vulnerable to a Denial-of-Service attack in an update scenario, as an attacker could populate the `registrar` database by creating multiple valid agent registrations with different UUIDs while the version is still = 7.12.1
Workarounds
• Remove the registrar database and re-register all agents
