This update for tboot fixes the following issues: Security issue fixed :
CVE-2017-16837: Certain function pointers in Trusted Boot (tboot) through 1.9.6 are notvalidated and can cause arbitrary code execution, which allows local users tooverwrite dynamic PCRs of Trusted Platform Module (TPM) by h (bsc#1068390) Bug fixes :
Fixed failed trusted boot on some systems like Intel Xeon ‘Purley 8s’ processors. The following error message showed: ‘TBOOT: wait-for-sipi loop timed-out’. Booting continued but ‘TXT measured launch’ was wrongly reported as FALSE. (bsc#1057555)
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
