What is CVE-2025-53013?

A flaw in Himmelblau allows users to authenticate to a Linux host with an invalid Hello PIN under offline conditions. This occurs due to a programming oversight where an expected TPMFail error transitions the system to an offline success state despite failing to unlock the Hello key. Consequently, while access is granted to the local system, Single Sign-On fails since tokens cannot be issued. This affects specific versions and is resolved in the later version 0.9.17. A recommended temporary workaround is available by disabling Hello PIN authentication.

Affected Version(s)

himmelblau >= 0.9.10, < 0.9.17
