A. Certification
1. Preliminary Remarks
Under the BSIG1
Act, the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) has the task of
issuing certificates for information technology products.
Certification of a product is carried out on the instigation of the vendor or a distributor,
hereinafter called the sponsor.
A part of the procedure is the technical examination (evaluation) of the product according
to the security criteria published by the BSI or generally recognised security criteria.
The evaluation is normally carried out by an evaluation facility recognised by the BSI or by
BSI itself.
The result of the certification procedure is the present Certification Report. This report
contains among others the certificate (summarised assessment) and the detailed
Certification Results.
The Certification Results contain the technical description of the security functionality of
the certified product, the details of the evaluation (strength and weaknesses) and
instructions for the user.

3. Recognition Agreements
In order to avoid multiple certification of the same product in different countries a mutual
recognition of IT security certificates - as far as such certificates are based on ITSEC or
CC - under certain conditions was agreed.
3.1. European Recognition of CC – Certificates (SOGIS-MRA)
The SOGIS-Mutual Recognition Agreement (SOGIS-MRA) Version 3 became effective in
April 2010. It defines the recognition of certificates for IT-Products at a basic recognition
level and, in addition, at higher recognition levels for IT-Products related to certain SOGIS
Technical Domains only.
The basic recognition level includes Common Criteria (CC) Evaluation Assurance Levels
EAL 1 to EAL 4. For "Smartcards and similar devices" a SOGIS Technical Domain is in
place. For "HW Devices with Security Boxes" a SOGIS Technical Domains is in place, too.
In addition, certificates issued for Protection Profiles based on Common Criteria are part of
the recognition agreement.
The current list of signatory nations and approved certification schemes, details on
recognition, and the history of the agreement can be seen on the website at
https://www.sogis.eu.
The SOGIS-MRA logo printed on the certificate indicates that it is recognised under the
terms of this agreement by the related bodies of the signatory nations. A disclaimer
beneath the logo indicates the specific scope of recognition.
This certificate is recognized under SOGIS-MRA for all assurance components selected.
3.2. International Recognition of CC – Certificates (CCRA)
The international arrangement on the mutual recognition of certificates based on the CC
(Common Criteria Recognition Arrangement, CCRA-2014) has been ratified on 08
September 2014. It covers CC certificates based on collaborative Protection Profiles (cPP)
(exact use), CC certificates based on assurance components up to and including EAL 2 or
the assurance family Flaw Remediation (ALC_FLR) and CC certificates for Protection
Profiles and for collaborative Protection Profiles (cPP).
The current list of signatory nations and approved certification schemes can be seen on
the website: https://www.commoncriteriaportal.org.
The Common Criteria Recognition Arrangement logo printed on the certificate indicates
that this certification is recognised under the terms of this agreement by the related bodies
of the signatory nations. A disclaimer beneath the logo indicates the specific scope of
recognition.

Certification Report BSI-DSZ-CC-1033-V2-2021
This certificate is recognized according to the rules of CCRA-2014, i. e. up to and including
CC part 3 EAL 2 components.
4. Performance of Evaluation and Certification
The certification body monitors each individual evaluation to ensure a uniform procedure, a
uniform interpretation of the criteria and uniform ratings.
The product MTCOS Pro 2.5 V2 EAC with PACE / SLE78CLFX400VPHM/BPHM/7PHM
(M7892) has undergone the certification procedure at BSI. This is a re-certification based
on BSI-DSZ-CC-1033-2019. Specific results from the evaluation process BSI-DSZ-CC-
1033-2019 were re-used.
The evaluation of the product MTCOS Pro 2.5 V2 EAC with PACE /
SLE78CLFX400VPHM/BPHM/7PHM (M7892) was conducted by SRC Security Research
& Consulting GmbH. The evaluation was completed on 3 August 2021. SRC Security
Research & Consulting GmbH is an evaluation facility (ITSEF)5
recognised by the
certification body of BSI.
For this certification procedure the applicant is: MaskTech International GmbH.
The product was developed by: MaskTech International GmbH.
The certification is concluded with the comparability check and the production of this
Certification Report. This work was completed by the BSI.
5. Validity of the Certification Result
This Certification Report applies only to the version of the product as indicated. The
confirmed assurance package is valid on the condition that
● all stipulations regarding generation, configuration and operation, as given in the
following report, are observed,
● the product is operated in the environment described, as specified in the following report
and in the Security Target.
For the meaning of the assurance components and assurance levels please refer to CC
itself. Detailed references are listed in part C of this report.
The Certificate issued confirms the assurance of the product claimed in the Security Target
at the date of certification. As attack methods evolve over time, the resistance of the
certified version of the product against new attack methods needs to be re-assessed.
Therefore, the sponsor should apply for the certified product being monitored within the
assurance continuity program of the BSI Certification Scheme (e.g. by a re-assessment or
re-certification). Specifically, if results of the certification are used in subsequent evaluation
and certification procedures, in a system integration process or if a user's risk
management needs regularly updated results, it is recommended to perform a re-
assessment on a regular e.g. annual basis.
In order to avoid an indefinite usage of the certificate when evolved attack methods would
require a re-assessment of the products resistance to state of the art attack methods, the
maximum validity of the certificate has been limited. The certificate issued on 5 August
2021 is valid until 4 August 2026. Validity can be re-newed by re-certification.

1. Executive Summary
The Target of Evaluation (TOE) is the product MTCOS Pro 2.5 V2 EAC with PACE /
SLE78CLFX400VPHM/BPHM/7PHM (M7892) provided by MaskTech International GmbH.
The TOE is an electronic travel document representing a contactless / contact based smart
card programmed according to ICAO Technical Report “Supplemental Access Control” [16]
and additionally providing the Extended Access Control according to the ICAO Doc 9303
[17] and the Technical Guideline TR-03110-1 [18], respectively. The communication
between terminal and chip shall be protected by Password Authenticated Connection
Establishment (PACE) according to the Protection Profile “Electronic Passport using
Standard Inspection Procedure with PACE”, BSI-CC-PP-0068-V2 [10]. Additionally, Active
Authentication according to the ICAO Doc 9303 [17] is provided.
The main security features of the TOE are:
• PACE function (mutual authentication and Secure Messaging);
• Active Authentication support function (prevention of copying the IC chip);
• Extended Access Control (chip authentication and terminal authentication protocol);
• Write protection function (protection against writing data after issuing a passport);
• Protection function in transport (protection against attacks during transport before
issuing the TOE) and
• Tamper resistance (protection against confidential information leak due to physical
attacks).
The Security Target [6] is the basis for this certification. It is based on the following certified
Common Criteria Protection Profile:
• Machine Readable Travel Document with "ICAO Application" Extended Access
Control with PACE, Version 1.3.2, 5 December 2012, BSI-CC-PP-0056-V2-2012-
MA-02 [9].
Please note that in consistency to the claimed protection profile BSI-CC-PP-0056-V2-
2012-MA-02 the security mechanisms Password Authenticated Connection Establishment,
Extended Access Control and Active Authentication are in the focus of this evaluation
process. The further security mechanism Basic Access Control is subject of the separate
evaluation process BSI-DSZ-CC-1034-V2-2021 [20].
The TOE Security Assurance Requirements (SAR) are based entirely on the assurance
components defined in Part 3 of the Common Criteria (see part C or [1], Part 3 for details).
The TOE meets the assurance requirements of the Evaluation Assurance Level EAL 5
augmented by ALC_DVS.2 and AVA_VAN.5.
The TOE Security Functional Requirements (SFR) relevant for the TOE are outlined in the
Security Target [6] and [7], chapter 6.1. They are selected from Common Criteria Part 2
and some of them are newly defined. Thus the TOE is CC Part 2 extended.
The TOE Security Functional Requirements are implemented by the following TOE

For the customer (personalization agent) to be able to check the correct delivery visually, a
delivery note together with the hardware stating the product type and certification
reference number is provided.
Procedures to identify the TOE are described in detail in the user guidance [21], section
3.4.
The GET CHIP INFORMATION command returns the chip identifier respectively additional
information about the platform, the operating system and the patch level. Whether the chip
contains the correct file system layout can be verified by checking the product identifier
stored in the file EF.PROJID (see [21] section 3.4).
An example for possible response values of the command GET CHIP INFORMATION can
be found in [21], Annex E. The chip-individual data, e.g. batch number, wafer number and
coordinates may vary from the manual.
3. Security Policy
The Security Policy is expressed by the set of Security Functional Requirements and
implemented by the TOE. It covers the following issues: The TOE implements physical and
logical security functionality in order to protect user data stored and operated on the smart
card when used in a hostile environment. Due to the nature of its intended application, the
TOE may be issued to users and may not be directly under the control of trained and
dedicated administrators. As a result, it is imperative that misleading, unreasonable and
conflicting guidance is absent from the guidance documentation, and that secure
procedures for all modes of operation have been addressed. Insecure states should be
13 / 25
Certification Report BSI-DSZ-CC-1033-V2-2021
easy to detect. The TOE shall be shown to be highly resistant to penetration attacks to
meet the security objectives. Specific details concerning the above mentioned security
policies can be found in [6] and [7], sec. 6.3.
4. Assumptions and Clarification of Scope
The Assumptions defined in the Security Target and some aspects of Threats and
Organisational Security Policies are not covered by the TOE itself. These aspects lead to
specific security objectives to be fulfilled by the TOE-Environment. The following topics are

5. Architectural Information
The TOE is a composite product. It is composed of an Integrated Circuit
SLE78CLFX400VPHM/BPHM/7PHM (M7892), IC Dedicated Software including Test and
Support Software, IC Embedded Software (Operating System) and the MRTD Application.
While the IC Embedded software contains the operating system MTCOS Pro 2.5 V2, the
NVM contains the MRTD application. As all these parts of the software are running inside
the IC, the external interface of the TOE to its environment can be defined as the external
interface of this IC, the SLE78CLFX400VPHM/BPHM/7PHM (M7892) secure dual-
interface controller of Infineon Technologies AG in design steps D11, G12 and P11 (BSI-
DSZ-CC-0891-V4-2019 [12] and BSI-DSZ-CC-1105-2020 [14]). The chip including
cryptographic library is certified according to CC EAL 6 augmented with ALC_FLR.1
compliant to the Protection Profile BSI-CC-PP-0084-2014 [11]. For details concerning the
CC evaluation of the Infineon ICs and their cryptographic libraries see the evaluation

SP.Management, SP.Verification
HAL SP.IC_CL, SP.Crypto, SP.Identification_Authentication, SP.Verification
Hardware SP.IC_CL
Table 4: Subsystems enforcing TSF
6. Documentation
The evaluated documentation as outlined in table 2 is being provided with the product to
the customer. This documentation contains the required information for secure usage of
the TOE in accordance with the Security Target.
Additional obligations and notes for secure usage of the TOE as outlined in chapter 10 of
this report have to be followed.
7. IT Product Testing
The test cases are dedicated to the demonstration of the proper implementation of all
security functions, card commands and operating system functionalities. For all commands
respectively functionality, test cases are specified in order to demonstrate the expected
behaviour including error cases. Each security function is covered by at least one test
case. From all existing file system setups, a representative subset of setups was chosen
for evaluator testing. The con-ducted tests can be categorized into two groups: tests with
the real card and tests with the emulator. The latter are used for situations where the test
result cannot be verified externally (e.g. the secure deletion of data). For the chosen
setups the evaluators conducted all test cases of the developer’s test suite for non-
interactive tests using the test equipment provided by the developer. The evaluators
decided to focus their own independent tests on tests with real cards, but emulator tests
were also conducted. For these tests the evaluators derived some test ideas from the
developer tests under consideration of the described security functionality.
All test cases were executed successfully and ended up with the expected result. If
necessary the developer gave additional annotations.
The evaluators used fuzz testing to determine the correct implementation of the TOE. In
the course of the fuzz testing no results indicating a wrong implementation could be found.
The penetration testing was performed using the test environment of the evaluation facility.
All relevant information as well as evaluation documentation was taken into account for the
analysis by the evaluators. For the penetration analysis the evaluator analysed the CC
deliverables for potential vulnerabilities already during the evaluation work for the
corresponding aspects. The evaluators found no exploitable vulnerabilities in the
evaluation deliverables. The evaluator used the potential vulnerabilities from the JIL
document as the lead for further investigations. All possible attack methods against an
authentic operational TOE were analysed. Thereby the results and experience of the ISCI

Certification Report BSI-DSZ-CC-1033-V2-2021
working group consolidated in the JIL document were taken into account. Potential
vulnerabilities cannot be exploited during the phases development, manufacturing and
personalization.
The overall test result is that no deviations were found between the expected and the
actual test results. No attack scenario with the attack potential High was actually
successful in the TOE’s operational environment as defined in the ST [6, 7], provided that
all measures required by the developer are applied. Potential vulnerabilities cannot be
exploited during the phases development, manufacturing and personalisation.
8. Evaluated Configuration
This certification covers the following configuration of the TOE:
MTCOS Pro 2.5 V2 EAC with PACE / SLE78CLFX400VPHM/BPHM/7PHM (M7892)
consisting of:
• MTCOS Pro 2.5 V2 EAC with PACE / SLE78CLFX400VPHM/BPHM/7PHM (M7892)
• Operating system and a file system in the context of the ICAO application with the
Infineon Technologies AG SLE78CLFX400VPHM/BPHM/7PHM (M7892) Chip;
software completely contained in NVM

The TOE has five main MRTD configurations, which are the MRTD-LayoutA-86, MRTD-
LayoutB-86, MRTD-LayoutC-160, MRTD-LayoutD-131 and MRTD-LayoutG-160. The key
file sizes that can be used for the five main MRTD configurations consist of the following
configuration combinations:
For the configuration of EF.CA (Chip Authentication Key - default), algorithms used for key
agreement (EC for ECDH or DH) and SM method are: (3DES, AES-128, AES-192, AES-
256) e.g. EC-3DES, EC-AES128, EC-AES192, EC-AES256, DH-3DES, DH-AES128, DH-
AES192, DH-AES256.
For the configuration of EF.CAF1 (Chip Authentication Key – additional), algorithms used
for key agreement (EC for ECDH or DH) and SM method are: (3DES, AES-128, AES-192
or AES-256) e.g. EC-3DES, EC-AES128, EC-AES192, EC-AES256, DH-3DES, DH-
AES128, DH-AES192, DH-AES256.
For the configuration of EF.AA (Active Authentication Key), algorithm used for signature
(RSA or EC for ECDSA) followed by hash method are: (SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-
384 or SHA-512) e.g. RSA-SHA1, RSA-SHA224, RSA-SHA256, RSA-SHA384, RSA-
SHA512; EC-SHA1, EC-SHA224, EC-SHA256, EC-SHA384, EC-SHA512.
During Personalization, the Personalization Agent sets the configuration options for the
main configurations, which were decided by the Initialization/Pre-personalization Agent.
There are no restrictions in options setting. Further details are given in the User Guidance
[21].

9. Results of the Evaluation
9.1. CC specific results
The Evaluation Technical Report (ETR) [8] was provided by the ITSEF according to the
Common Criteria [1], the Methodology [2], the requirements of the Scheme [3] and all
interpretations and guidelines of the Scheme (AIS) [4] as relevant for the TOE.
The Evaluation Methodology CEM [2] was used for those components up to EAL 5
extended by advice of the Certification Body for components beyond EAL 5 and guidance
specific for the technology of the product [4] (AIS 34).
The following guidance specific for the technology was used:
(i) Composite product evaluation for Smart Cards and similar devices according to AIS
36 (see [4]). On base of this concept the relevant guidance documents of the
underlying IC platform (refer to [12, 14]) and the document ETR for composite
evaluation from the IC’s evaluation ([13, 15]) have been applied in the TOE
evaluation.
(ii) Guidance for Smartcard Evaluation (see [4], AIS 37).
(iii) Attack Methods for Smartcards and Similar Devices (see [4], AIS 26).
(iv) Application of Attack Potential to Smartcards (see [4], AIS 26).
(v) Application of CC to Integrated Circuits (see [4], AIS 25).
(vi) Security Architecture requirements (ADV_ARC) for smart cards and similar devices
(see [4], AIS 25).
(vii) Evaluation Methodology for CC Assurance Classes for EAL5+ and EAL6 (see [4],
AIS 34)
(viii) Functionality classes and evaluation methodology of physical and deterministic
random number generators (see [4], AIS 20 and AIS 31).
For smart card specific methodology the scheme interpretations AIS 25, AIS 26, AIS 34,
AIS 36, AIS 37 and AIS 46 (see [4]) were used. For RNG assessment the scheme
interpretations AIS 20 and AIS 31 were used (see [4]).
A document ETR for composite evaluation according to AIS 36 has not been provided in
the course of this certification procedure. It could be provided by the ITSEF and submitted
to the certification body for approval subsequently.
The assurance refinements outlined in the Security Target were followed in the course of
the evaluation of the TOE.
As a result of the evaluation the verdict PASS is confirmed for the following assurance
components:
• All components of the EAL 5 package including the class ASE as defined in the CC
(see also part C of this report)
• The components ALC_DVS.2 and AVA_VAN.5 augmented for this TOE evaluation.
As the evaluation work performed for this certification procedure was carried out as a re-
evaluation based on the certificate BSI-DSZ-CC-1033-2019, re-use of specific evaluation
tasks was possible. The focus of this re-evaluation was on including the design step P11 of
the hardware platform and updated certificates for that platform. The MTCOS has been
17 / 25
Certification Report BSI-DSZ-CC-1033-V2-2021
revised to now have keys used for Chip Authentication and Active Authentication
configurable during personalisation, resulting in a significant reduction of minor
configurations compared to the baseline certification.
The evaluation has confirmed:
• PP Conformance: Machine Readable Travel Document with "ICAO Application"
Extended Access Control with PACE, Version 1.3.2, 5
December 2012, BSI-CC-PP-0056-V2-2012-MA-02 [8]
• for the Functionality: PP conformant plus product specific extensions
Common Criteria Part 2 extended
• for the Assurance: Common Criteria Part 3 conformant
EAL 5 augmented by ALC_DVS.2 and AVA_VAN.5
For specific evaluation results regarding the development and production environment see
annex B in part D of this report.
The results of the evaluation are only applicable to the TOE as defined in chapter 2 and
the configuration as outlined in chapter 8 above.
The evaluation was performed as a composite evaluation according to AIS 36 and
therefore relies on the platform certifications of the used IC (Certification ID BSI-DSZ-CC-
0891-V4-2019 and BSI-DSZ-CC-1105-2020 [13], [15]).
9.2. Results of cryptographic assessment
The table A.1 presented in chapter A of the Security Target [6] gives an overview of the
cryptographic functionalities inside the TOE to enforce the security policy and outlines the
standard of application where its specific appropriateness is stated. The strength of the
cryptographic algorithms was not rated in the course of this certification procedure (see
BSIG Section 9, Para. 4, Clause 2). An explicit validity period is not given.
10. Obligations and Notes for the Usage of the TOE
The documents as outlined in table 2 contain necessary information about the usage of the
TOE and all security hints therein have to be considered. In addition all aspects of
Assumptions, Threats and OSPs as outlined in the Security Target not covered by the TOE
itself need to be fulfilled by the operational environment of the TOE.
The customer or user of the product shall consider the results of the certification within his
system risk management process. In order for the evolution of attack methods and
techniques to be covered, he should define the period of time until a re-assessment of the
TOE is required and thus requested from the sponsor of the certificate.
The limited validity for the usage of cryptographic algorithms as outlined in chapter 9 has to be
considered by the user and his system risk management process, too.
In addition, the following aspects need to be fulfilled when using the TOE:
If the product certified is being used as National ID-Card or National Document the
operational instructions and limitations as outlined in ‘Technische Richtlinie BSI TR-03116,
Kryptographische Vorgaben für Projekte der Bundesregierung, Teil 2: eID-Karten und
hoheitliche Dokumente’ [19] (TR-03116-2) have to be followed when issuing and using the
product. This includes the restrictions related to cryptographic algorithms and related
parameters. Cryptographic algorithms and related parameters not covered by the
18 / 25
BSI-DSZ-CC-1033-V2-2021 Certification Report
certificate (see ST [6]) must not be used. The latest published version of TR-03116-2 has
to be followed (see https://www.bsi.bund.de/).
The TOE provides the functionality to switch the cryptographic implementation for Secure
Messaging session keys (AES) as used after PACE-authentication to an enhanced
security level in operational use phase. This may be necessary if e.g. a new attack
scenario aiming on these session keys is discovered during the life time of the TOE. The
execution of this mechanism is reserved to the issuing authority using certificate
extensions. Once the enhanced security level is applied, it is not possible to switch back to
the lower security level.
11. Security Target
For the purpose of publishing, the Security Target [7] of the Target of Evaluation (TOE) is
provided within a separate document as Annex A of this report. It is a sanitised version of
the complete Security Target [6] used for the evaluation performed. Sanitisation was
performed according to the rules as outlined in the relevant CCRA policy (see AIS 35 [4]).
