Subject: [PATCH v8 00/17] Enroll kernel keys thru MOK
Back in 2013 Linus requested a feature to allow end-users to have the
ability "to add their own keys and sign modules they trust". This was
his *second* order outlined here [1]. There have been many attempts
over the years to solve this problem, all have been rejected. Many
of the failed attempts loaded all preboot firmware keys into the kernel,
including the Secure Boot keys. Many distributions carry one of these
rejected attempts [2], [3], [4]. This series tries to solve this problem
with a solution that takes into account all the problems brought up in
the previous attempts.
On UEFI based systems, this series introduces a new Linux kernel keyring
containing the Machine Owner Keys (MOK) called machine. It also defines
a new MOK variable in shim. This variable allows the end-user to decide
if they want to load MOK keys into the machine keyring. Mimi has suggested
that only CA keys contained within the MOK be loaded into the machine
keyring. All other certs will load into the platform keyring instead.
By default, nothing changes; MOK keys are not loaded into the machine
keyring. They are only loaded after the end-user makes the decision
themselves. The end-user would set this through mokutil using a new
--trust-mok option [5]. This would work similar to how the kernel uses
MOK variables to enable/disable signature validation as well as use/ignore
the db. Any kernel operation that uses either the builtin or secondary
trusted keys as a trust source shall also reference the new machine
keyring as a trust source.
Secure Boot keys will never be loaded into the machine keyring. They
will always be loaded into the platform keyring. If an end-user wanted
to load one, they would need to enroll it into the MOK.
Steps required by the end user:
Sign kernel module with user created key:
$ /usr/src/kernels/$(uname -r)/scripts/sign-file sha512 \
machine_signing_key.priv machine_signing_key.x509 my_module.ko
Import the key into the MOK
$ mokutil --import machine_signing_key.x509
Setup the kernel to load MOK keys into the .machine keyring
$ mokutil --trust-mok
Then reboot, the MokManager will load and ask if you want to trust the
MOK key and enroll the MOK into the MOKList. Afterwards the signed kernel
module will load.
I have included a link to the mokutil [5] changes I have made to support
this new functionality. The shim changes have now been accepted
upstream [6].
Upstream shim is located here [7], the build instructions are here [8].
TLDR:
$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/rhboot/shim
$ cd shim
$ make
After building shim, move shimx64.efi and mmx64.efi to the vendor or
distribution specific directory on your EFI System Partition (assuming
you are building on x86). The instructions above are the minimal
steps needed to build shim to test this feature. It is assumed
Secure Boot shall not be enabled for this testing. To do testing
with Secure Boot enabled, all steps in the build instructions [8]
must be followed.
Instructions for building mokutil (including the new changes):
$ git clone -b mokvars-v3 https://github.com/esnowberg/mokutil.git
$ cd mokutil/
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
