IDTitleDescription
CCC.KeyMgmt.TH04Weak or Compromised Key Material is ImportedInsufficient validation during the key-import process may allow weak, back-doored, or otherwise compromised key material to be introduced, reducing the overall strength of subsequent cryptographic operations.
CCC.KeyMgmt.TH06Key Material is Generated or Stored Outside a Hardware Security ModuleKeys may be created with a software protection level instead of being generated and held in a validated hardware security module. Key material then exists in a form that can be extracted or copied by a compromised host or privileged operator. Confidentiality of every item protected by the key is lost if the material is exfiltrated.
