Local vector and low privileges required to submit TEE requests; high complexity reflects the many-query Bleichenbacher oracle; limited confidentiality only, no integrity or availability impact.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionNVD
OP-TEE is a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) designed as companion to a non-secure Linux kernel running on Arm; Cortex-A cores using the TrustZone technology. Starting in version 4.5.0 and prior to version 4.11.0, the RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption implementation in the Hisilicon HPRE crypto driver uses non-constant-time memcmp() for label hash verification and has multiple distinguishable error paths. This creates a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle that allows an attacker to recover RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 plaintext. Version 4.11.0 contains a patch. As a workaround, disable Hisilicon HPRE RSA driver with CFG_HISILICON_ACC_V3=n.
AnalysisAI
RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption in OP-TEE's Hisilicon HPRE hardware accelerator driver exposes a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle, allowing a local attacker to recover RSA plaintext by adaptively querying the oracle. Affected are optee_os versions 4.5.0 through 4.10.x built with Hisilicon HPRE support (CFG_HISILICON_ACC_V3=y) on Arm TrustZone-based platforms. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires: (1) the target system runs OP-TEE OS version 4.5.0 or later but prior to 4.11.0, compiled with CFG_HISILICON_ACC_V3=y - this is not the default for all platforms and is specific to Hisilicon HPRE hardware; (2) RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption operations are performed via the Hisilicon HPRE driver path, not a software fallback; (3) the attacker has local, low-privilege access to submit RSA decryption requests to a Trusted Application and observe timing or error differentiation. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 2.5 (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) accurately reflects the constrained risk profile. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A local attacker with low-privilege access to the normal-world Linux environment on a Hisilicon Kunpeng platform running a vulnerable OP-TEE build submits tens of thousands of adaptively crafted RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 ciphertexts to a Trusted Application via the TEE client API, measuring timing differences or distinguishing error codes returned by the HPRE driver's non-constant-time memcmp() and branching error paths. By iteratively refining the queries per the Bleichenbacher algorithm, the attacker narrows the RSA plaintext space and eventually recovers the target plaintext. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade to OP-TEE OS version 4.11.0, which contains the fix for this padding oracle (vendor-confirmed via GHSA-wxp6-8wwr-h4gf). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
