i.MX95: EdgeLock Enclave Key Import Error - SAB CMD [0x47] Resp [0x1829] (Invalid Signature)

Hi Team,

We are currently working on importing a private key to an i.MX95 device following the guidelines in application note AN14898.

Environment & References:

Target Device: i.MX95
Demo Application: imx_sec_apps/imx-ele-apps
SPSDK Version: Latest standard toolset

Activities Completed So Far:

Installed Python, pip, and the SPSDK toolset.
Successfully built both the Host and Device applications.
Copied device/bin/ele_key_import and device/scripts/run_test_on_board.sh to our target i.MX95 hardware.
Executed the device-side flow to generate nxp_prod_ka_puk.bin.
Transferred nxp_prod_ka_puk.bin back to our host environment.
Generated SRK keys (secp384r1) using the SPSDK utility according to the SPSDK Documentation since we do not have final production keys yet.
Generated the signed_msg.bin on the host side using the standard key import template (with the -k parameter set to secp384r1).
Transferred the generated signed_msg.bin to the i.MX95 hardware.
Command used to generate signed message:
nxpimage signed-msg export -c key_exchange_temp.yaml -w assets
Attached key_exchange_temp.yaml for reference.
When running run_test_on_board.sh on the i.MX95 target device, all files are found, but the EdgeLock Enclave rejects the signature on the signed message block.Here is our target terminal log:

nxp_prod_ka_puk.bin exists.
oem_public_key.pem exists.
signed_msg.bin exists.

Any insight on resolving this signature verification issue for the i.MX95 would be greatly appreciated.

In the meantime, please review the case below, which is similar to the issue you are encountering.

The suggested solution is to verify that the fuse_version matches correctly.

Hi @Ankit_Agrawal

I am wondering if you burn SRKH after SRK generation. for necessary sign.yaml file please check my attached file.

Please try below command (precondition is you should have flash.bin: bootloader of system) to generate SRKH.

nxpimage ahab sign -c sign.yaml -b flash.bin -o flash_directsign.bin -fs outputs
output will be as below.

Jessie_Lee_0-1786699088609.png

and from the ouputs folder, you could see bcf file(ahab_oem0_srk0_hash_nxpele.bcf).

you could follow below fuse command (index 128 ~143) that you need to fuse for SRKH.

you could use below command to burn SRKH

nxpele -f mimx9596 batch outputs\ahab_oem0_srk0_hash_nxpele.bcf

If you burn the SRKH already but failed with below invalid singing, please share the singed_message.bin to us. with your SRKH (including srk output all).

Hi @Jessie_Lee ,

Thanks for the information.
We have located the flash.bin file and are able to perform the necessary steps to generate the SRKH.
After generating the SRKH, we need to fuse it to the hardware. To perform the fuse operation, the hardware/board must be in Fastboot mode. Could you please help us switch the device to Fastboot mode?

While attempting to fuse the keys, we are encountering the following error:

Ankit_Agrawal_0-1787636692485.png

It appears that the device is not currently in Fastboot mode. Any guidance on how to enable Fastboot mode on the board would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ankit

Hi @Ankit_Agrawal

Please follow up below steps to burn SRK using SPSDK

step#1. when you boot device, stop at u-boot console , run

u-boot=> fastboot 0

step#2. In SPSDK console , you must there is no ahab events) using below command.

nxpele -f mimx9596 get-events

step#3. If there is no event, you could burn SRK key now in SPSDK console.

nxpele -f mimx9596 batch outputs\ahab_oem2_srk0_hash_nxpele.bcf

@Jessie_Lee

It is reported that things are not working as shown below. Is it possible to get some support?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
However, when I execute the command to perform the fuse operation, I encounter the error below.
I tried resetting the hardware too, but I'm still facing the same issue. Do you have any ideas on why this might be happening?

@Ankit_Agrawal
Feel free to provide additional explanation if necessary.

Jessie_Lee — Fri, 11 Sep 2026 09:55:18 GMT

from @Ankit_Agrawal , there was fastboot entering issue.

@rakhyoung Do you mean you are also having issue to enter fastboot ?

did you try to below command..? that I shared.. above? what is error when you try to below fastboot 0 at uboot stage?

step#1. when you boot device, stop at u-boot console , run

u-boot=> fastboot 0
