Just to clarify, with these patches, IMA will be able to verify the native form of signed kernel modules? i.e. without xattrs at all, and this will work with existing signed modules?
Hello James, Thanks for you interest in these patches.

From a Linux > bootloader? Yes to both. OpenPOWER machines have embedded in their firmware a Linux kernel and initramfs to use as bootloader, using Petitboot. kexec is used to load the OS and boot it. >> It adds flexibility to OpenPOWER secure boot, because it allows it to boot >> kernels with the signature appended to them as well as kernels where the >> signature is stored in the IMA extended attribute. > > Just to clarify, with these patches, IMA will be able to verify the > native form of signed kernel modules? That wasn't my use case to develop the patches, but I just tested and it works. I just had to make a slight modification: there's a whitelist of IMA hooks that are allowed to use the module signature format (in the ima_hook_supports_modsig function), and I had to add MODULE_CHECK to it. The next version of the patches will have this change. The only difference is that IMA looks for a valid key in the IMA keyring, while the CONFIG_MODULE_SIG code looks for the module signing key in the builtin and secondary trusted keyrings. > i.e. without xattrs at all, and > this will work with existing signed modules? No xattrs at all, and yes. -- Thiago Jung Bauermann IBM Linux Technology Center
Hello, v8 is just a rebase on top of today's linux-integrity/next-integrity. There aren't any noteworthy changes since v7, which is why I'm keeping its description below: The main difference in v7 is the addition of the last patch, which ensures that there will always be a measurement entry containing the appended modsig if one was used to appraise the file. The patch description and comments in the code should explain in which circumstances the patch proved necessary. Apart from that, there was some small cleaning up of the code, and merging and splitting of patches. The changelog below has the details. Original cover letter: On the OpenPOWER platform, secure boot and trusted boot are being implemented using IMA for taking measurements and verifying signatures. Since the kernel image on Power servers is an ELF binary, kernels are signed using the scripts/sign-file tool and thus use the same signature format as signed kernel modules. This patch series adds support in IMA for verifying those signatures. It adds flexibility to OpenPOWER secure boot, because it allows it to boot kernels with the signature appended to them as well as kernels where the signature is stored in the IMA extended attribute. Changes since v7: - Patch "MODSIGN: Export module signature definitions" - Added module name parameter to validate_module_sig() so that it can be shown in error messages. - Patch "integrity: Introduce struct evm_xattr" - Dropped use of struct evm_xattr in evm_update_evmxattr() and evm_verify_hmac(). It's not needed there anymore because of changes to support portable EVM signatures. Changes since v6: - Patch "PKCS#7: Introduce pkcs7_get_message_sig() and verify_pkcs7_message_sig()" - Retitled to "PKCS#7: Refactor verify_pkcs7_signature() and add pkcs7_get_message_sig()" - Reworded description to clarify why the refactoring is needed. The code is unchanged. (Suggested by Mimi Zohar) - Added Mimi Zohar's Reviewed-by. - Patch "PKCS#7: Introduce pkcs7_get_digest()" - Added Mimi Zohar's Reviewed-by. - Patch "integrity: Introduce integrity_keyring_from_id" - Added Mimi Zohar's Signed-off-by. - Patch "integrity: Introduce asymmetric_sig_has_known_key()" - Added Mimi Zohar's Signed-off-by. - Patch "integrity: Select CONFIG_KEYS instead of depending on it" - Added Mimi Zohar's Signed-off-by. - Patch "ima: Introduce is_ima_sig()" - Renamed function to is_signed() (suggested by Mimi Zohar). - Patch "ima: Add functions to read and verify a modsig signature" - Changed stubs for the !CONFIG_IMA_APPRAISE_MODSIG to return -EOPNOTSUPP instead of -ENOTSUPP, since the latter isn't defined in uapi headers. - Moved functions to the patches which use them and dropped this patch (suggested by Mimi Zohar). - Patch "ima: Implement support for module-style appended signatures" - Prevent reading and writing of IMA_MODSIG xattr in ima_read_xattr() and ima_inode_setxattr(). - Simplify code in process_measurement() which decides whether to try reading a modsig (suggested by Mimi Zohar). - Moved some functions from patch "ima: Add functions to read and verify a modsig signature" into this patch. - Patch "ima: Add new "d-sig" template field" - New patch containing code from patch "ima: Write modsig to the measurement list" (Suggested by Mimi Zohar). - Patch "ima: Write modsig to the measurement list" - Moved some functions from patch "ima: Add functions to read and verify a modsig signature" into this patch. - Moved code related to d-sig support to new patch. - Patch "ima: Store the measurement again when appraising a modsig" - New patch. Changes since v5: - Patch "ima: Remove some superfluous parentheses" - Dropped. - Patch "evm, ima: Remove superfluous parentheses" - Dropped. - Patch "evm, ima: Remove more superfluous parentheses" - Dropped. - Patch "ima: Don't pass xattr value to EVM xattr verification." - Dropped. - Patch "ima: Store measurement after appraisal" - Dropped. - Patch "MODSIGN: Export module signature definitions" - Reduced changes to the code that was moved into validate_module_sig() to the minimum necessary (suggested by Mimi Zohar). - Added SPDX license identifier. - Patch "PKCS#7: Introduce pkcs7_get_message_sig() and verify_pkcs7_message_sig()" - In the hypothetical case that there's more than one sinfo, changed pkcs7_get_message_sig() to return NULL instead of the first sinfo's sig. - Dropped Mimi's Reviewed-by because of the code change above. - Patch "PKCS#7: Introduce pkcs7_get_digest()" - New patch. - Patch "integrity: Introduce integrity_keyring_from_id" - Add stub in case CONFIG_INTEGRITY_SIGNATURE isn't set. - Patch "integrity: Introduce asymmetric_sig_has_known_key()" - New patch. - Patch "ima: Introduce is_ima_sig" - New patch, with code from "ima: Improvements in ima_appraise_measurement" - Patch "ima: Add modsig appraise_type option for module-style appended signatures" - Changed appraise_type to accept "imasig|modsig" instead of "modsig|imasig" to reflect the fact that now IMA only looks for the modsig after failing to find a suitable imasig stored in the xattr. - Added SPDX license identifier. - Patch "ima: Add functions to read and verify a modsig signature" - Changed ima_read_modsig() to abort loading the modsig if it uses a key which isn't known to IMA. - Changed ima_get_modsig_hash() to use pkcs7_get_digest(). - Patch "ima: Implement support for module-style appended signatures" - Added ima_xattr_sig_known_key() auxiliary function. - Call ima_read_modsig() directly from process_measurement() instead of from ima_appraise_measurement(), and only if there's no xattr signature or if the xattr signature uses a key which isn't known to IMA. - hash_algo in process_measurement() is always obtained from the xattr signature, never from the modsig. - Changes to ima_appraise_measurement() are a lot simpler now, and don't involve going back to the main switch statement a second time. - Pass xattr_value to evm_verifyxattr() unless xattr_value is a modsig. - Patch "ima: Write modsig to the measurement list" - Since now we determine whether we'll use an xattr sig or a modsig at the time they are read, there's no need to store a measurement again in the modsig case. Thus, this patch doesn't need to change ima_store_measurement() nor process_measurement() anymore. - Define new "d-sig" template field which holds the digest that is expected to match the one contained in the modsig. - Moved addition of ima_modsig_serialize_data() to patch "ima: Add functions to read and verify a modsig signature". - Increase MAX_TEMPLATE_NAME_LEN to 24. Changes since v4: - Patch "ima: Remove redundant conditional operator" - New patch. - Patch "ima: Remove some superfluous parentheses" - New patch. - Patch "evm, ima: Remove superfluous parentheses" - New patch. - Patch "evm, ima: Remove more superfluous parentheses" - New patch. - Patch "ima: Simplify ima_eventsig_init" - New patch. - Patch "ima: Improvements in ima_appraise_measurement" - New patch. - Patch "ima: Don't pass xattr value to EVM xattr verification." - New patch. - Patch "ima: Export func_tokens" - Split from patch "ima: Support module-style appended signatures for appraisal". - Patch "ima: Add modsig appraise_type option for module-style appended signatures" - Split from patch "ima: Support module-style appended signatures for appraisal". - Mention modsig option in Documentation/ABI/testing/ima_policy (suggested by Mimi Zohar). - Patch "ima: Add functions to read and verify a modsig signature" - Split from patch "ima: Support module-style appended signatures for appraisal". - Patch "ima: Implement support for module-style appended signatures" - Split from patch "ima: Support module-style appended signatures for appraisal". - In ima_appraise_measurement, change the logic of dealing with xattr errors in case the modsig verification fails. With this, process_xattr_error isn't needed anymore. - Patch "ima: Write modsig to the measurement list" - Split from patch "ima: Support module-style appended signatures for appraisal". - Added ima_current_template_has_sig function. - Removed hdr parameter from ima_modsig_serialize_data. - In ima_store_measurement, continue processing even if the given PCR is already measured if it's for a modsig. - In process_measurement, add exception to store measurement even if IMA_MEASURE is not set when appraising a modsig (suggested by Mimi Zohar). - Call is_ima_sig in ima_eventsig_init.
