Research direction

Start by comparing FCS_VAL_EXT.1.2 with test FCS_VAL_EXT.1.3:2 in CPP_FDE_EE_V3.0, then consult the corresponding V2.0E test and related AA wording. Done means the EE test accurately covers validation after exiting a Compliant power saving state without referring to forwarding BEVs outside the TOE.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In CPP_FDE_EE_V3.0, the requirement FCS_VAL_EXT.1.2 states:

The TSF shall require validation of the [BEV] prior to [allowing access to TSF data after exiting a Compliant power saving state].

However, Test FCS_VAL_EXT.1.3:2 reads:

For each validated authorization factor, ensure that when the user provides an incorrect authorization factor, the TOE prevents the BEV from being forwarded outside the TOE (e.g., to the EE).

This seems to be a copy-paste error from the AA? The EE does not forward BEVs. For what it's worth, V2.0E had the following test:

Test 2: The evaluator shall force the TOE to enter a Compliant power saving state, attempt to resume it from this state, and verify that only a valid authorization factor as defined by the guidance documentation is sufficient to allow the TOE to exit the Compliant power saving state.
