TPM_E_DAA_INPUT_DATA0

The protocol checkpoint

TPM_E_DAA_INPUT_DATA0 (0x80280051) belongs to TPM 1.2 Direct Anonymous Attestation. The base What Is page already shows the short Windows message; the additional diagnostic value is that this result marks the first DAA input parameter fails the stage-specific consistency check.

The first producer to identify for this HRESULT is the staged DAA enrollment or signing state machine. Direct Anonymous Attestation in TPM 1.2 is a multi-stage protocol. Each stage consumes issuer data, TPM-specific state and outputs from earlier stages, so the first inconsistent transcript element is more useful than the final generic application failure.

Read this result as its own boundary in a sequence, not as a verdict that every TPM feature is broken. The sequence reaches the first DAA input parameter fails the stage-specific consistency check, and the component returns 0x80280051 before the application can safely assume that later key, attestation, boot or licensing work occurred.

What to preserve before retrying

  • Request identity: exact function or command, input lengths, flags, caller context and this result.
  • State identity: DAA stage, exact inputData0 bytes and length, issuer parameters, prior stage outputs, nonce values, and serialization version.
  • Platform identity for this HRESULT: TPM generation, manufacturer/firmware revision, Windows build and relevant service events.
  • Binary identity: preserve opaque structures byte-for-byte and log 0x80280051 in hexadecimal.

Minimal reproduction

Recompute inputdata0 from a clean transcript and compare byte-for-byte before resubmission. Keep every other this result test condition unchanged. If the comparison reaches a later checkpoint, then the original the condition has been isolated even when a second defect remains.

Observed outcomeInterpretation
The exact request succeedsThe changed condition belongs to the rejected the first DAA input parameter fails the stage-specific consistency check.
A more specific earlier code appearsPreserve the earlier result in the result trace; the previous trace probably lost the first producer.
The same code returns with identical bytesEscalate the persistent it with firmware, service and command evidence rather than broad configuration changes.
The code disappears only after destructive resetThe result experiment is not diagnostic because original protected state and evidence were removed.

Nearby codes with different meanings

Nearby constantWhy it is different
TPM_E_DAA_INPUT_DATA1The consistency check on DAA parameter inputData1 has failed — a separate checkpoint when compared with it.
TPM_E_DAA_RESOURCESThe DAA command has no resources availble to execute the command — a separate checkpoint when compared with it.
TPM_E_DAA_ISSUER_SETTINGSThe consistency check on DAA_issuerSettings has failed — a separate checkpoint when compared with it.

For this page, the useful contrast is: TPM_E_DAA_INPUT_DATA1 identifies the second stage input instead.

Resolution criteria

Apply the narrow remedy: rebuild the current DAA transcript from authenticated prior outputs rather than patching the rejected field. Do not mix values from separate DAA attempts. The protocol is staged and transcript-bound; substituting one issuer value or nonce can make every later stage misleading.

Close the incident only when the same API or TPM command passes with the intended hardware-backed behavior and the expected output can be independently validated.
