, available with the feature, checked that issued and verified the certificate signature. It did not check the certificate's validity period, so it accepted expired and not-yet-valid certificates. With the feature, this function validates the GCP launch endorsement signing certificate against the GCE confidential-computing TCB root certificate. A signing certificate outside its validity period was therefore still accepted during launch endorsement verification. Intel describes the issue as improper certificate validation and classifies it as escalation of privilege, with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 5.9, in INTEL-SA-01520. The flaw was corrected in [#86](https://github.com/IntelLabs/tdx-workload-attestation/pull/86), released in 0.2.0. The function now returns when the current time is outside the certificate's / range. Reported by [Borys Tsyrulnikov](https://borystsyrulnikov.dev).
