[PATCH 17/20] X.509: Restrict the usage of a key based on information in X.509 certificate [ver #5]

From: David Howells
Date: Thu May 28 2015 - 11:49:13 EST


Use X.509 extendedKeyUsage extension [RFC5280 4.2.1.12] to hold restriction
information as to the purpose of the key. The following changes are made:

(1) The kernel's X.509 parser is modified to extract this information and
stash it in the public_key struct.

(2) The kernel indicates in /proc/keys the restriction if one is found.

(3) Autogenerated module signing key certificates are marked with a module
signing only restriction.

The extendedKeyUsage extension takes a sequence of OIDs to indicate the set of
restricted cases. To this end, I have temporarily used three unassigned OIDs
from RH OID space. These will need to be replaced with real assigned OIDs:

1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.99.2 Key is restricted to firmware signing
1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.99.3 Key is restricted to module signing
1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.99.4 Key is restricted to kexecable image signing

I would propose a fourth, key signing, but that should perhaps be handled
through the keyUsage extension [RFC5280 4.2.1.3] setting keyCertSign.

I am treating these as mutually exclusive. A key with a restriction is
rejected if it also gives a second restriction.


To mark a key as being for firmware signing only, for example, the "openssl
req" command can be given an extension specifier to mark the X.509
certificate. Assuming a config script is used, this would be done by
including the following in the extension list:

extendedKeyUsage=critical,1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.99.2

This adds it to the extendedKeyUsage extension. Another, perhaps more
convenient way to do it would be to add our own extension type, eg:

1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.99.2=critical,ASN1:NULL

This would easier to deal with since we examine all the extensions anyway, and
we could parameterise it, but the first option is probably the correct way.

Also, do we need to break the firmware restriction space down by class or
manufacturer? Or will one restriction do?
