✨ NAME ✨

nvreadpublic — bestie, this one Runs TPM2_NV_ReadPublic. That's the whole vibe. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so first things first, we gotta address the elephant in the room:

--version-string=v1045 is not a valid option

not me getting that out of the way immediately 😭 like. it's not valid. don't do it. moving on!

🎀 nvreadpublic

Runs TPM2_NV_ReadPublic. iconic behaviour, honestly.

  • -ha NV index handle — this is where you hand over the NV index handle. literally just give it the handle bestie, it's giving "pass the aux" 🫶
  • [-nalg expected name hash algorithm (sha1, sha256, sha384) (default sha256)] — you can optionally tell it which name hash algorithm you're expecting. your choices are sha1, sha256, or sha384, and if you say nothing it lowkey defaults to sha256. slay 💖
  • -se[0-2] session handle / attributes (default PWAP) — session handle and attributes, and the default here is PWAP. the attribute values you can pass are:
    • 01 continue
    • 20 command decrypt
    • 40 response encrypt
    • 80 audit

no cap, that's the whole list. 🔥

💜 and like… again?? 💜

okay so the page does the thing where it says the exact same stuff a second time, and I'm not about to gatekeep, so here it is in full:

--version is not a valid option

not valid either!! 🙈 consider yourself warned twice, which is honestly a serve of thoroughness.

🌸 nvreadpublic

Runs TPM2_NV_ReadPublic — yes, again. consistent queen. 👑

  • -ha NV index handle — NV index handle. that's the assignment. 🎀
  • [-nalg expected name hash algorithm (sha1, sha256, sha384) (default sha256)] — expected name hash algorithm, one of sha1, sha256, sha384, defaults to sha256. same as before, still correct, still cute. ✨
  • -se[0-2] session handle / attributes (default PWAP) — session handle / attributes, default PWAP, and the attribute values are:
    • 01 continue
    • 20 command decrypt
    • 40 response encrypt
    • 80 audit

and that's it. we ate. 🍓
