KEYS: trusted: allow use of TEE as backend without TCG_TPM support

2022-05-23T15:47:50+00:00

With recent rework, trusted keys are no longer limited to TPM as trust source. The Kconfig symbol is unchanged however leading to a few issues: - TCG_TPM is required, even if only TEE is to be used - Enabling TCG_TPM, but excluding it from available trusted sources is not possible - TEE=m && TRUSTED_KEYS=y will lead to TEE support being silently dropped, which is not the best user experience Remedy these issues by introducing two new boolean Kconfig symbols: TRUSTED_KEYS_TPM and TRUSTED_KEYS_TEE with the appropriate dependencies. Any new code depending on the TPM trusted key backend in particular or symbols exported by it will now need to explicitly state that it depends on TRUSTED_KEYS && TRUSTED_KEYS_TPM The latter to ensure the dependency is built and the former to ensure it's reachable for module builds. There are no such users yet.

KEYS: encrypted: Instantiate key with user-provided decrypted data

2022-02-22T00:47:45+00:00

For availability and performance reasons master keys often need to be released outside of a Key Management Service (KMS) to clients. It would be beneficial to provide a mechanism where the wrapping/unwrapping of data encryption keys (DEKs) is not dependent on a remote call at runtime yet security is not (or only minimally) compromised. Master keys could be securely stored in the Kernel and be used to wrap/unwrap keys from Userspace. The encrypted.c class supports instantiation of encrypted keys with either an already-encrypted key material, or by generating new key material based on random numbers. This patch defines a new datablob format: [] that allows to inject and encrypt user-provided decrypted data. The decrypted data must be hex-ascii encoded.

security: DH - use KDF implementation from crypto API

2021-11-26T05:25:17+00:00

The kernel crypto API provides the SP800-108 counter KDF implementation. Thus, the separate implementation provided as part of the keys subsystem can be replaced with calls to the KDF offered by the kernel crypto API. The keys subsystem uses the counter KDF with a hash primitive. Thus, it only uses the call to crypto_kdf108_ctr_generate.

security: keys: trusted: use ASN.1 TPM2 key format for the blobs

2021-04-14T13:30:30+00:00

Modify the TPM2 key format blob output to export and import in the ASN.1 form for TPM2 sealed object keys. For compatibility with prior trusted keys, the importer will also accept two TPM2B quantities representing the public and private parts of the key. However, the export via keyctl pipe will only output the ASN.1 format. The benefit of the ASN.1 format is that it's a standard and thus the exported key can be used by userspace tools (openssl_tpm2_engine, openconnect and tpm2-tss-engine). The format includes policy specifications, thus it gets us out of having to construct policy handles in userspace and the format includes the parent meaning you don't have to keep passing it in each time. This patch only implements basic handling for the ASN.1 format, so keys with passwords but no policy. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley Tested-by: Jarkko Sakkinen Signed-off-by: Jarkko Sakkinen

Pull notification queue from David Howells: "This adds a general notification queue concept and adds an event source for keys/keyrings, such as linking and unlinking keys and changing their attributes. Thanks to Debarshi Ray, we do have a pull request to use this to fix a problem with gnome-online-accounts - as mentioned last time: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-online-accounts/merge_requests/47 Without this, g-o-a has to constantly poll a keyring-based kerberos cache to find out if kinit has changed anything. [ There are other notification pending: mount/sb fsinfo notifications for libmount that Karel Zak and Ian Kent have been working on, and Christian Brauner would like to use them in lxc, but let's see how this one works first ] LSM hooks are included: - A set of hooks are provided that allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a watch may be set. Each of these hooks takes a different "watched object" parameter, so they're not really shareable. The LSM should use current's credentials. [Wanted by SELinux & Smack] - A hook is provided to allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a particular message may be posted to a particular queue. This is given the credentials from the event generator (which may be the system) and the watch setter. [Wanted by Smack] I've provided SELinux and Smack with implementations of some of these hooks. WHY === Key/keyring notifications are desirable because if you have your kerberos tickets in a file/directory, your Gnome desktop will monitor that using something like fanotify and tell you if your credentials cache changes. However, we also have the ability to cache your kerberos tickets in the session, user or persistent keyring so that it isn't left around on disk across a reboot or logout. Keyrings, however, cannot currently be monitored asynchronously, so the desktop has to poll for it - not so good on a laptop. This facility will allow the desktop to avoid the need to poll. DESIGN DECISIONS ================ - The notification queue is built on top of a standard pipe. Messages are effectively spliced in. The pipe is opened with a special flag: pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); The special flag has the same value as O_EXCL (which doesn't seem like it will ever be applicable in this context)[?]. It is given up front to make it a lot easier to prohibit splice&co from accessing the pipe. [?] Should this be done some other way? I'd rather not use up a new O_* flag if I can avoid it - should I add a pipe3() system call instead? The pipe is then configured:: ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth); ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter); Messages are then read out of the pipe using read(). - It should be possible to allow write() to insert data into the notification pipes too, but this is currently disabled as the kernel has to be able to insert messages into the pipe *without* holding pipe->mutex and the code to make this work needs careful auditing. - sendfile(), splice() and vmsplice() are disabled on notification pipes because of the pipe->mutex issue and also because they sometimes want to revert what they just did - but one or more notification messages might've been interleaved in the ring. - The kernel inserts messages with the wait queue spinlock held. This means that pipe_read() and pipe_write() have to take the spinlock to update the queue pointers. - Records in the buffer are binary, typed and have a length so that they can be of varying size. This allows multiple heterogeneous sources to share a common buffer; there are 16 million types available, of which I've used just a few, so there is scope for others to be used. Tags may be specified when a watchpoint is created to help distinguish the sources. - Records are filterable as types have up to 256 subtypes that can be individually filtered. Other filtration is also available. - Notification pipes don't interfere with each other; each may be bound to a different set of watches. Any particular notification will be copied to all the queues that are currently watching for it - and only those that are watching for it. - When recording a notification, the kernel will not sleep, but will rather mark a queue as having lost a message if there's insufficient space. read() will fabricate a loss notification message at an appropriate point later. - The notification pipe is created and then watchpoints are attached to it, using one of: keyctl_watch_key(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, fds[1], 0x01); watch_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/", 0, fd, 0x02); watch_sb(AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", 0, fd, 0x03); where in both cases, fd indicates the queue and the number after is a tag between 0 and 255. - Watches are removed if either the notification pipe is destroyed or the watched object is destroyed. In the latter case, a message will be generated indicating the enforced watch removal. Things I want to avoid: - Introducing features that make the core VFS dependent on the network stack or networking namespaces (ie. usage of netlink). - Dumping all this stuff into dmesg and having a daemon that sits there parsing the output and distributing it as this then puts the responsibility for security into userspace and makes handling namespaces tricky. Further, dmesg might not exist or might be inaccessible inside a container. - Letting users see events they shouldn't be able to see. TESTING AND MANPAGES ==================== - The keyutils tree has a pipe-watch branch that has keyctl commands for making use of notifications. Proposed manual pages can also be found on this branch, though a couple of them really need to go to the main manpages repository instead. If the kernel supports the watching of keys, then running "make test" on that branch will cause the testing infrastructure to spawn a monitoring process on the side that monitors a notifications pipe for all the key/keyring changes induced by the tests and they'll all be checked off to make sure they happened. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/log/?h=pipe-watch - A test program is provided (samples/watch_queue/watch_test) that can be used to monitor for keyrings, mount and superblock events.

security/keys: rewrite big_key crypto to use library interface

2020-06-02T16:22:31+00:00

A while back, I noticed that the crypto and crypto API usage in big_keys were entirely broken in multiple ways, so I rewrote it. Now, I'm rewriting it again, but this time using the simpler ChaCha20Poly1305 library function. This makes the file considerably more simple; the diffstat alone should justify this commit. It also should be faster, since it no longer requires a mutex around the "aead api object" (nor allocations), allowing us to encrypt multiple items in parallel. We also benefit from being able to pass any type of pointer, so we can get rid of the ridiculously complex custom page allocator that big_key really doesn't need. [DH: Change the select CRYPTO_LIB_CHACHA20POLY1305 to a depends on as select doesn't propagate and the build can end up with an =y dependending on some =m pieces. The depends on CRYPTO also had to be removed otherwise the configurator complains about a recursive dependency.] Cc: Andy Lutomirski Cc: Greg KH Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: kernel-hardening@lists.openwall.com Reviewed-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Jason A.

watch_queue: Add a key/keyring notification facility

2020-05-19T14:19:06+00:00

Add a key/keyring change notification facility whereby notifications about changes in key and keyring content and attributes can be received. Firstly, an event queue needs to be created: pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE); ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, 256); then a notification can be set up to report notifications via that queue: struct watch_notification_filter filter = { .nr_filters = 1, .filters = { [0] = { .type = WATCH_TYPE_KEY_NOTIFY, .subtype_filter[0] = UINT_MAX, }, }, }; ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter); keyctl_watch_key(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, fds[1], 0x01); After that, records will be placed into the queue when events occur in which keys are changed in some way. Records are of the following format: struct key_notification { struct watch_notification watch; __u32 key_id; __u32 aux; } *n; Where: n->watch.type will be WATCH_TYPE_KEY_NOTIFY. n->watch.subtype will indicate the type of event, such as NOTIFY_KEY_REVOKED. n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH will indicate the length of the record. n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_ID will be the second argument to keyctl_watch_key(), shifted. n->key will be the ID of the affected key. n->aux will hold subtype-dependent information, such as the key being linked into the keyring specified by n->key in the case of NOTIFY_KEY_LINKED. Note that it is permissible for event records to be of variable length - or, at least, the length may be dependent on the subtype. Note also that the queue can be shared between multiple notifications of various types. Signed-off-by: David Howells Reviewed-by: James Morris

KEYS_COMPAT now always takes the value of COMPAT && KEYS. But the security/keys/ directory is only compiled if KEYS is enabled, so in practice KEYS_COMPAT is the same as COMPAT. Therefore, remove the unnecessary KEYS_COMPAT and just use COMPAT directly. (Also remove an outdated comment from compat.c.)

Pull request_key improvements from David Howells: "These are all request_key()-related, including a fix and some improvements: - Fix the lack of a Link permission check on a key found by request_key(), thereby enabling request_key() to link keys that don't grant this permission to the target keyring (which must still grant Write permission). Note that the key must be in the caller's keyrings already to be found. - Invalidate used request_key authentication keys rather than revoking them, so that they get cleaned up immediately rather than hanging around till the expiry time is passed. - Move the RCU locks outwards from the keyring search functions so that a request_key_rcu() can be provided. This can be called in RCU mode, so it can't sleep and can't upcall - but it can be called from LOOKUP_RCU pathwalk mode. - Cache the latest positive result of request_key*() temporarily in task_struct so that filesystems that make a lot of request_key() calls during pathwalk can take advantage of it to avoid having to redo the searching. This requires CONFIG_KEYS_REQUEST_CACHE=y. It is assumed that the key just found is likely to be used multiple times in each step in an RCU pathwalk, and is likely to be reused for the next step too. Note that the cleanup of the cache is done on TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, just before userspace resumes, and on exit" * tag 'keys-request-20190626' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs: keys: Kill off request_key_async{,_with_auxdata} keys: Cache result of request_key*() temporarily in task_struct keys: Provide request_key_rcu() keys: Move the RCU locks outwards from the keyring search functions keys: Invalidate used request_key authentication keys keys: Fix request_key() lack of Link perm check on found key
