Warning
This report is designed to provide sponsors with a document enabling them to assess the
security level of a product under the conditions of use and operation defined in this report for
the evaluated version. It is also designed to provide the potential purchaser of the product with
the conditions under which he may operate or use the product so as to meet the conditions of
use for which the product has been evaluated and certified; that is why this certification report
must be read alongside the evaluated user and administration guidance, as well as with the
product security target, which presents threats, environmental assumptions and the supposed
conditions of use so that the user can judge for himself whether the product meets his needs in
terms of security objectives.
Certification does not, however, constitute a recommendation product from ANSSI (French
Network and Information Security Agency), and does not guarantee that the certified product
is totally free of all exploitable vulnerabilities.

Introduction
The Certification
Security certification for information technology products and systems is governed by decree
number 2002-535 dated April, 18th 2002, and published in the "Journal Officiel de la
République Française". This decree stipulates that:
• The French Network and Information Security Agency draws up certification
reports. These reports indicate the features of the proposed security targets. They may
include any warnings that the authors feel the need to mention for security reasons.
They may or may not be transmitted to third parties or made public, as the sponsors
desire (article 7).
• The certificates issued by the Prime Minister certify that the copies of the products or
systems submitted for evaluation fulfil the specified security features. They also
certify that the evaluations have been carried out in compliance with applicable rules
and standards, with the required degrees of skill and impartiality (article 8).
The procedures are available on the Internet site www.ssi.gouv.fr.

1. The product
1.1. Presentation of the product
The evaluated product is the smart card “ID One™ ePASS v2.1 with configuration BAC
embedded on NXP P5CD040V0B, P5CD080V0B, P5CD144V0B revision 1 with the optional
code (patch) r2” developed by Oberthur Technologies and NXP Semiconductors.
The evaluated product is a contactless smartcard with its antenna. It implements the travel
document features according to the specifications from the International Civil Aviation
Organization (cf. [ICAO]). The contactless microcontroller with embedded software allows to
check the authenticity of the travel document, and to identify its holder during a border
control, with the support of an inspection system. In particular, it enables:
- Protection in integrity of the holder’s data stored by physical means and thanks to the
access control which allows only one writing;
- Authentication between the travel document holder and the inspection system prior to
any border control by the Basic Access Control (BAC);
- Protection in integrity and confidentiality of data read by the secure messaging;
- Authentication of the genuine chip by the Active Authentication mechanism (if
activated);
The chip and its embedded software are intended to be inserted into the cover page of
traditional passport booklets. They can be integrated into modules or inlay. The final product
can be a passport, a plastic card, etc.
1.2. Evaluated product description
The security target [ST], in chapter 2, defines the evaluated product, its evaluated security
functionalities and its operation environment.
The security target conforms to the protection profile [PP BAC]. The evaluator considers the
conformity as demonstrable. Indeed, the security target as been written following the version
3.1 of [CC] whereas the protection profile [BAC] has been certified according to the version
2.3 of [CC].

2. The evaluation
2.1. Evaluation referential
The evaluation has been performed in compliance with Common Criteria version 3.1 [CC],
with the Common Evaluation Methodology [CEM].
For assurance components not covered by the [CEM], the evaluation facility own evaluation
methods, validated by ANSSI, have been used.
In order to meet the specificities of smart cards, the [CC IC] and [CC AP] guides have been
applied.
2.2. Evaluation work
The evaluation has been performed according to the composition scheme as defined in the
guide [COMP] in order to assess that no weakness comes from the integration of the software
in the microcontroller already certified.
Therefore, the results of the evaluation of the microcontroller P5CD040V0B, P5CD080V0B,
P5CD144V0B at EAL5 level augmented with ALC_DVS.2, AVA_MSU.3 and AVA_VLA.4,
compliant with the [PP0002] protection profile, have been used. This microcontroller has
been certified by the BSI the (cf. [BSI-DSZ-CC-0404-2007] / [BSI-DSZ-CC-0410-2007] /
[BSI-DSZ-CC-0411-2007]).
The evaluation technical report [ETR], delivered to ANSSI on 12th
may 2009, provides details
on the work performed by the evaluation facility and assesses that all evaluation tasks are
“pass”.
2.3. Cryptographic mechanisms robustness analysis
The robustness of cryptographic mechanisms has been analysed by ANSSI. The results are
stated in the cryptographic analysis report [ANA-CRY] and have been taken into account in
the evaluator vulnerability analysis.
The analysed mechanisms contain, for some of them, implementations that are not
conformant to ANSSI cryptographic referential (Cf. [REF-CRY]).
2.4. Random number generator analysis
The hardware random number generator has been evaluated by the German evaluation facility
T-Systems with the [AIS 31] methodology (cf. [BSI-DSZ-CC-0404-2007] / [BSI-
DSZ-CC-0410-2007] / [BSI-DSZ-CC-0411-2007]).
The hardware generator reaches the class “P2-High” according to [AIS 31].
