STATUS_RTPM_INVALID_CONTEXT

Invalid remote TPM context

STATUS_RTPM_INVALID_CONTEXT means the continuation state for a remote TPM operation cannot be trusted or decoded. Because the context carries operation state between steps, byte-level corruption or mixing contexts from different instances breaks the exchange.

The safe response is to restart the remote TPM operation. Attempting to repair a serialized context is risky because it can desynchronize authorization, PCR selection, command payload, or target identity.

Diagnostic focus

  • Check for truncation, encoding changes, compression bugs, or storage corruption in the serialized context.
  • Ensure the context is resumed against the same target and operation instance that created it.
  • Restart the operation after invalid context rather than continuing with guessed state.
