Topic: wolfTPM 3.10.0 Release

wolfTPM 3.10.0 delivers a critical security fix, expanded embedded platform support, and enterprise-grade TPM resource management—empowering developers to build secure, scalable IoT and edge computing solutions with hardware-backed cryptography.

Password Handling Fix
A bug in the wolfTPM2_SetKeyAuthPassword() function introduced in v3.9.2 has been resolved. This API, primarily used by the C# wrapper, was incorrectly truncating passwords to 2 bytes.

  • Impact: Users of the wolfTPM2_SetKeyAuthPassword API or C# wrapper on v3.9.2

  • Resolution: Password handling now correctly stores the full authentication credential, with regression tests added

Note: If you are using this API or the C# wrapper with v3.9.2, we recommend updating.


Espressif ESP32 HAL Support
wolfTPM now natively supports ESP32-S3, ESP32-C6, and other ESP32 variants via SPI and I2C interfaces—bringing TPM 2.0 security to millions of IoT devices.

Key Features

  • Native ESP-IDF integration with pre-configured pin mappings

  • SPI speeds up to 22 MHz for high-performance cryptographic operations

  • I2C support for Infineon SLB9673 TPM modules

  • Hardware-backed key storage, secure boot, and device attestation

Enhanced CMake Build System & TPM Module Selection
