Some platforms may have lost the private portion of the PlatformKey, or the PlatformKey may have been compromised. In these cases, it is necessary to replace the PlatformKey with a new one. This example demonstrates how to replace the old PlatformKey with a new one. That is intended to be used as a reference. Targets a Test certificate that is not provided to prevent accidents.

Some platforms may have lost the private portion of the PK (Platform Key), or the PK may have been compromised (E.G Test Certificate). The former would prevent the operating system from updating the secure boot variables via a signed update. A Firmware update natively only updates the "Defaults" but not the active variables.
In these cases, it is necessary to replace the active PK with a new one via a firmware update. This example demonstrates how an OEM may replace the existing bad PK with a new one via firmware.
This shouldn't be included indefinitely in firmware and ideally is only transient. Do not arbitrarily add this to a platform's DSC without understanding the implications of it.
I've included a script that will generate a new Test PK on demand. However I am not providing a Test PK to prevent someone from adding that to their firmware. Additionally, I've set the payload to the windows PK so that if this driver does run it will replace the certificate with a well known good default.
How This Was Tested
QemuQ35
Boot with Secure Boot disabled
exit from the shell
enable secure boot (with an appropriate target certificate)
