The problem was the driver’s "guardian angel"—a routine called validate_tpl() that ran before every fingerprint match. It checked that the template being loaded hadn’t been swapped, that the cryptographic nonce was fresh, that the secure enclave’s temperature was within tolerance. It was perfect. This context explains why the announcement that the

Newer IDEMIA modules (post-2023, such as the VisionPass or the CBM-300 series with embedded TPM 2.0) use a completely redesigned driver architecture and are not vulnerable to these specific CVEs. However, backward compatibility modes may still pose risks if old driver versions are force-installed. that the cryptographic nonce was fresh
