    @kimot: I used the SecurityPersonalizer sketch with the keys defined in it.
    Here is the beginning of the sketch:

    /*
     * The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol

     * The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each

    Note that the values of MY_HMAC_KEY and MY_AES_KEY in the text above are not the ones I'm currently using.
    I re-checked that the AES and HMAC keys are indeed the same on the gateway and that's correct.

    I don't use the MY_SOFT_SERIAL key yet, so I let the sketch generate a random one.

    @Anticimex: I could indeed see in the file ~/Arduino/hardware/breadboard/avr/boards.txt that atmega328bb.build.f_cpu=8000000L is defined.

    I am not sure, if we speak about the same AES key.
    I mean encryption key for RFM69 chip, because you select using encryption by this radio in your network.
    But I am on my mobile only, so it is dificult study source codes Now.

      @kimot AES key is stored in eeprom for all radios. It is fetched and loaded to the radio in runtime. Not compiletime.

      Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

        I've enabled MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_SIGNING and MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RFM69, here is what I get:

        I'm wondering: maybe I should try to dump the EEPROM memory to be sure the keys were properly set?

        Also, regarding my question in the first post, do you know where messages are dropped if the AES key isn't correct? Is it at the radio or software level?

        @encrypt
        The key here is "!SGN:PER:Tampered".
        The security backend checks a checksum of the eeprom data used for security. If it is not valid, it considers data tampered and will not use it. So your eeprom has been corrupted one way or another. Or you use either a really old personalizer or a really old library version.
        Edit: not old library. And old library would not care about checksum.

        Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

          Also, note I'm running the latest version of the SecurityPersonalizer sketch, which can be found here: https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors/blob/development/examples/SecurityPersonalizer/SecurityPersonalizer.ino

          I really don't know what can be wrong here...
          Could the 8MHz internal clock be the faulty part? Maybe it fails to correctly read the EEPROM data due to a misconfigured clock?

            Hello again,

            I don't know why I'm getting that "!SGN:PER:Tampered" message...
            I've run the SecurityPersonalizer sketch again and it reported that everything went as expected:

            Also, note I'm running the latest version of the SecurityPersonalizer sketch, which can be found here: https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors/blob/development/examples/SecurityPersonalizer/SecurityPersonalizer.ino

            I really don't know what can be wrong here...
            Could the 8MHz internal clock be the faulty part? Maybe it fails to correctly read the EEPROM data due to a misconfigured clock?

            Here is what avrdude shows in the debug view of the Arduino IDE ; using the Arduino Uno as a programmer:

            @encrypt normally when this happens, it is the main sketch that writes something to eeprom without taking into consideration what parts of the eeprom the MySensors library reserves for internal use.
            Could you try to run the personalizer to write the eeprom, then your main sketch, and after that the personalizer again, but this time, configured to not write any data, just print out what is already there?
            Sara should be identical but I strongly suspect it will not be (as the main sketch consider data "tampered").

            Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

              Now, to answer your question @Anticimex, how do you run the SecurityPersonalizer sketch to only print the content of the EEPROM and not do any write? I've commented out all options but now it reports that no #define has been set :sweat_smile:

              Come have fun with me on IRC: #mysensors on Libera.chat :)

                Now, to answer your question @Anticimex, how do you run the SecurityPersonalizer sketch to only print the content of the EEPROM and not do any write? I've commented out all options but now it reports that no #define has been set :sweat_smile:

                @encrypt you should be able to run it without any local modifications to get it to print the data.

                Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

                  Maybe I've missed something but any #define set will make the code write to the EEPROM.

                  I ran the SecurityPersonalizer again, it reset the EEPROM to FF's.
                  I enabled the PERSONALIZE_SOFT_RANDOM_SERIAL flag ran it again and finally re-uploaded my pilot wire code.

                  I still have that "tempered" message in the logs, I really don't know what I can do...
                  I may just end up disabling encryption I guess...

                  Come have fun with me on IRC: #mysensors on Libera.chat :)

                    @encrypt that sounds very strange to me. The sketch is written to do nothing when left unchanged from git. Just output the current status.

                    Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

                        @encrypt hm ok. Try to enable the MY_SIGNING_SOFT flag. I am on cell phone so I have a hard time reading the logic flow of the code.

                        Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

                          Hmmm... I'm starting to believe that the bootloader i used could be the problem.
                          Someone using an "alternative" bootloader got problems with signing a few years ago: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/4991/mysbootloader-1-3pre2-testing/2

                              @encrypt sorry no. There is no direct dependency between the security functionality and avr fuses. Atsha communications and some timeouts do expect the clocks to be working at expected rates though so the concept of time is valid. If the core clock is not matching what the preprocessor flags specify (F_CPU) then there could be problems.
                              Perhaps your device is not really running @8Mhz?

                              Perhaps you could test running a simple sketch that prints something at a specific pace and match that with a "real" clock. For example printing something every 10s specified by some delay or wait function and measure that that is reasonably accurate.

                              I would expect that if the MCU is not executing at the speed F_CPU specifies, a thing like delay(10s) would not really delay for 10s.

                              Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

                                Do you have any clue @Anticimex / @mfalkvidd?

                                @encrypt but I still do not get how the bootloader could cause you to get tampered eeprom data.
                                Unless the fuses also affect eeprom writes of course.

                                Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

                                  @Anticimex: I have just found that there is an EESAVE fuse on the ATMEGA328P which prevents the EEPROM from being erased whenever a new sketch is pushed to the microcontroller.

                                  It seems to be the root cause of the issue since I've found references in other posts of the MySensors forum to that problem.

                                  I'll test that now and let you know.

                                    @encrypt ah, that would indeed explain a lot and especially the tampered indication.
                                    If true, I'll see if I can add that to the troubleshooting section to the documentation.
                                    I was not aware of this fuse.

                                      The issue was indeed the EESAVE fuse not set, which caused the EEPROM to be erased after each sketch upload.

                                          @anticimex @Encrypt That's a bit odd and certainly specific to the bootloader you're using (ATmegaBoot): AVRdude does (at least with optiboot) a page erase (vs. chip erase where EESAVE has an effect). I do not have the EESAVE fuse bit set and no issues with erased eeprom when loading a new sketch, also see below:

                                          Arduino Uno with optiboot:

                                          uno.bootloader.tool=avrdude
                                          uno.bootloader.low_fuses=0xFF
                                          uno.bootloader.high_fuses=0xDE
                                          uno.bootloader.extended_fuses=0xFD
                                          uno.bootloader.unlock_bits=0x3F
                                          uno.bootloader.lock_bits=0x0F
                                          uno.bootloader.file=optiboot/optiboot_atmega328.hex
                                          

                                          High fuse (0xDE) does not enable EESAVE.
