Verifiers MUST, offline: (1) CBOR-decode `object`, requiring fmt 'apple-appattest'; (2) verify the attStmt x5c chain to the embedded Apple App Attest Root CA; (3) recompute `nonce = sha256(authData || sha256(publicKey))` and require it to equal the credential certificate's nonce extension (OID 1.2.840.113635.100.8.2) — THIS is the binding to the signing key; (4) check authData's rpIdHash == sha256(App ID 'TEAMID.dev.cocore.provider'), the AAGUID is the genuine-hardware appattest value, and credentialId == sha256(attested public key) == `keyId`. A bound, valid App Attest object earns 'hardware-attested' exactly as a bound mdaCertChain does. It proves genuine, un-tampered Apple hardware holds a Secure-Enclave key bound to the signing key; it does NOT by itself prove the signing key is SE-resident nor that the running binary is honest (those are carried by the SE-backed signing identity + hardened-runtime + cdHash known-good gate, same self-measurement ceiling as the MDA path)."
