# CCC attested-tls-poc: TLS trust checked once, then endpoint can be altered

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-129092 (this .md is for agents)

The attested-tls-poc proof-of-concept appraises a machine's attestation Evidence only once during the TLS handshake and never again afterward. A local attacker on the attesting endpoint can change workload code, data, configuration or attached devices such as GPUs while peers keep trusting the original Evidence.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## Affected

- vendor:attested-tls-poc affected <= 731ca82ed533fc7a1092be980887ae2e34261da2 (all commits) fixed no fixed version listed

## How to check

Check whether your code or build depends on or vendors CCC-Attestation/attested-tls-poc (any commit up to 731ca82ed533fc7a1092be980887ae2e34261da2, i.e. all of it, since the last commit was Oct 2023): search repos, submodules and Dockerfiles for that repository URL.

## Fix

No fix: the project is archived and marked defunct by its maintainers, who advise against using the design or implementation. Move to IETF SEAT working group designs with post-handshake attestation.

## From the sources

CCC Attestation SIG attested-tls-poc through commit 731ca82 contains a time-of-check time-of-use vulnerability because Evidence is appraised only once during the TLS handshake, without post-handshake re-attestation. Attackers with local access to the attesting endpoint can alter workload code, data, configuration, or attached devices like GPUs while peers keep trusting the original Evidence.
