Local low-privilege TEE invocation required; when >512 MB threshold is met, AES-GCM integrity guarantee is fully defeated (I:H), not merely degraded; S:C retained as TEE secure-world impact crosses to REE.

DescriptionCVE.org

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 3.0.0 and prior to version 4.11.0, 32-bit integer overflows in OP-TEE core's AES-GCM implementation cause the authentication tag to be computed with incorrect bit-length values after processing more than 512 megabytes of payload or Additional Authenticated Data (AAD). Version 4.11.0 contains a patch. No known workarounds are available.

AnalysisAI

Integer overflow in OP-TEE OS's AES-GCM implementation silently corrupts authentication tag computation when a single operation processes more than 512 megabytes of payload or Additional Authenticated Data (AAD), affecting all deployments running versions 3.0.0 through 4.10.x on Arm TrustZone platforms. The overflow causes the GHASH length counters to wrap, meaning the GCM authentication tag is derived from incorrect bit-length values - defeating AES-GCM's core integrity guarantee without any runtime error or exception. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Obtain local low-privilege access to OP-TEE-enabled Arm device
Delivery
Invoke Trusted Application AES-GCM operation with >512 MB payload or AAD
Exploit
32-bit bit-length counter overflows in GHASH computation
Execution
Authentication tag derived from incorrect length values
Persist
Supply crafted ciphertext or AAD that passes corrupted tag verification
Impact
Tampered data accepted as authentic by relying application

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that a single AES-GCM operation within OP-TEE processes more than 512 megabytes (2^32 bits) of payload data or Additional Authenticated Data (AAD) - this is the specific threshold at which 32-bit integer counters overflow. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor-assigned CVSS 3.0 base score of 3.8 (Low) with vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N reflects the local attack surface and limited integrity impact designation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A Trusted Application or REE process passes a single AES-GCM encryption or decryption call to OP-TEE with more than 512 MB of payload or AAD data. The internal 32-bit bit-length counter silently overflows during GHASH computation, causing the final authentication tag to be derived from an incorrect length value. …
Remediation Upgrade OP-TEE OS to version 4.11.0 or later, which contains the vendor-confirmed patch for this integer overflow. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
