[PATCH v2 0/7] ima: Add template fields to verify EVM portable signatures
From: Roberto Sassu
Date: Fri May 28 2021 - 03:38:53 EST
The recent patch set 'evm: Improve usability of portable signatures' added
the possibility to include EVM portable signatures in the IMA measurement
list.
However, the information necessary to verify the signature were not
included in the IMA measurement list. This patch set introduces new
template fields to accomplish this goal:
- 'iuid': the inode UID;
- 'igid': the inode GID;
- 'imode': the inode mode;
- 'xattrnames': a list of xattr names (separated by |), only if the xattr is
present;
- 'xattrlengths': a list of xattr lengths (u32), only if the xattr is present;
- 'xattrvalues': a list of xattr values;
Patch 1 adds an helper function to show integers in the measurement list.
Patches 2, 3 and 5 introduce new template fields. Patch 4 make it possible
to verify EVM portable signatures which protect xattrs belonging to LSMs
not enabled in the target platform. Patch 6 introduces the new IMA template
evm-sig. Patch 7 fixes a small issue in evm_write_xattrs() when audit is
not enabled.
This patch set has been tested with:
https://github.com/robertosassu/ima-evm-utils/blob/ima-template-fields-v2-devel-v5/tests/verify_evmsig.test
https://github.com/robertosassu/ima-evm-utils/blob/ima-template-fields-v2-devel-v5/tests/evm_hmac_non_enabled_xattrs.test
The first test aims at checking whether the EVM portable signature included
in the measurement list can be verified with the information also in the
measurement list.
It uses two methods for the verification: the first creates a copy of a
measured file, sets metadata parsed from the measurement list to that copy
and calls evmctl to verify the signature; the second lets evmctl verify the
measurement list directly.
The test is performed without and with an idmapped mount. Given that IMA
always provides the original UID and GID, no more actions are needed in the
second case.
The second test verifies that setting a non-enabled xattr does not change
the HMAC.
The test results are available at:
https://travis-ci.com/github/robertosassu/ima-evm-utils/jobs/508604164
https://travis-ci.com/github/robertosassu/ima-evm-utils/jobs/508604168
This patch set has been also tested on s390x, with and without the
canonical format enabled (the test results are not shown, as the UML kernel
used in Travis is not available for this architecture).
Changelog
v1:
- remove the mntuidmap and mntgidmap template fields and always display the
original inode UID and GID (suggested by Christian Brauner)
- replace the evmxattrs template field with xattrnames, xattrlengths and
xattrvalues (suggested by Mimi)
- introduce the new IMA template evm-sig (suggested by Mimi)
- use only one variable in ima_eventinodedac_init_common() (suggested by
Mimi)

enabled
