Registration troubleshooting

After Initializing the enclave like so:

SCRT_ENCLAVE_DIR=/usr/lib secretd init-enclave
(or SCRT_ENCLAVE_DIR=/usr/lib secretd init-enclave | grep -Po 'isvEnclaveQuoteStatus":".+?"')
An outtput like this should be generated:
INFO [wasmi_runtime_enclave::registration::attestation] Attestation report: {"id":"183845695958032083367610248637243990718","timestamp":"2020-07-12T09:43:12.297820","version":4,"advisoryURL":"https://security-center.intel.com","advisoryIDs":["INTEL-SA-00334"],"isvEnclaveQuoteStatus":"SW_HARDENING_NEEDED","isvEnclaveQuoteBody":"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"}
(or isvEnclaveQuoteStatus":"SW_HARDENING_NEEDED")
Where the important fields are isvEnclaveQuoteStatus and advisoryIDs. This is are fields that mark the trust level of our platform. The acceptable values for the isvEnclaveQuoteStatus field are:
  • OK
  • SW_HARDENING_NEEDED
With the following value accepted for testnet only:
  • GROUP_OUT_OF_DATE
For the status CONFIGURATION_AND_SW_HARDENING_NEEDED we perform a deeper inspection of the exact vulnerabilities that remain. The acceptable values for mainnet are:
  • "INTEL-SA-00334"
  • "INTEL-SA-00219"
Consult with the Intel API for more on these values.
If you do not see such an output, look for a file called attestation_cert.der which should have been created in your $HOME directory. You can then use the command secretd parse <path/to/attestation_cert.der> to check the result a successful result should be a 64 byte hex string (e.g. 0x9efe0dc689447514d6514c05d1161cea15c461c62e6d72a2efabcc6b85ed953b.

What to do if this didn't work?

  1. 1.
    Running secretd init-enclave should have created a file called attestation_cert.der. This file contains the attestation report from above.
  2. 2.
    Contact us on the proper channels on chat.scrt.network
  3. 3.
    The details we will need to investigate will include:
    • Hardware specs
    • SGX PSW/driver versions
    • BIOS versions
    • The file attestation_cert.der

Troubleshooting

Output is:

2020-07-12 13:21:31,864 ERROR [go_cosmwasm] Error :(

Make sure you have the environment variable SCRT_ENCLAVE_DIR=/usr/lib set before you run secretd.
Output is:

ERROR [wasmi_runtime_enclave::registration::cert] Platform is updated but requires further BIOS configuration
ERROR [wasmi_runtime_enclave::registration::cert] The following vulnerabilities must be mitigated: ["INTEL-SA-00161", "You must disable hyperthreading in the BIOS", "INTEL-SA-00289", "You must disable overclocking/undervolting in the BIOS"]
Platform status is SW_HARDENING_AND_CONFIGURATION_NEEDED. This means is updated but requires further BIOS configuration
Please disable hyperthreading and overclocking/undervolting (Turboboost) in your BIOS.
I'm seeing CONFIGURATION_AND_SW_HARDENING_NEEDED in the isvEnclaveQuoteStatus field, but with more advisories than what is allowed
This could mean a number of different things related to the configuration of the machine. Most common are:
  • ["INTEL-SA-00161", "INTEL-SA-00233"] - Hyper-threading must be disabled in the BIOS
  • ["INTEL-SA-00289"] - Overclocking/undervolting must be disabled by the BIOS (sometimes known as Turboboost)
  • ["INTEL-SA-00219"] - Integrated graphics should be disabled in the BIOS - we recommend performing this step if you can, though it isn't required
If you are still having trouble getting rid of INTEL-SA-00219 and INTEL-SA-00289, here are some possible settings to look for outside of the CPU settings:
  • Primary Display = 'PCI Express'
  • IGPU Multi-Monitor = Disabled
  • Onboard VGA = Disabled
I'm seeing SGX_ERROR_DEVICE_BUSY
Most likely you tried reinstalling the driver and rerunning the enclave - restarting should solve the problem
