Dmitry Kasatkin 635288f70f Update README to produce initial evmctl.1 man page
Update README with additional information to produce initial
evmctl.1 man page. Sligtly reformat it for that purpose as well.

Requires asciidoc, xslproc, docbook-xsl packages to build man page.

EVMCTL(1)
=========
NAME
----
evmctl - IMA/EVM signing utility
SYNOPSIS
--------
evmctl [options] <command> [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The evmctl utility can be used for producing and verifying digital signatures,
which are used by Linux kernel integrity subsystem (IMA/EVM). It can be also
used to import keys into the kernel keyring.
COMMANDS
--------
help <command>
import [--rsa] pubkey keyring
sign [-r] [--imahash | --imasig ] [--key key] [--pass password] file
verify file
ima_sign [--sigfile] [--key key] [--pass password] file
ima_verify file
ima_hash file
ima_measurement file
ima_fix [-t fdsxm] path
sign_hash [--key key] [--pass password]
hmac [--imahash | --imasig ] file
OPTIONS
-------
-a, --hashalgo sha1 (default), sha224, sha256, sha384, sha512
-s, --imasig also make IMA signature
-d, --imahash also make IMA hash
-f, --sigfile store IMA signature in .sig file instead of xattr
-1, --rsa signing key is in RSA DER format (signing v1)
-k, --key path to signing key (default: /etc/keys/{privkey,pubkey}_evm.pem)
-p, --pass password for encrypted signing key
-u, --uuid use file system UUID in HMAC calculation (EVM v2)
-t, --type file types to fix 'fdsxm' (f: file, d: directory, s: block/char/symlink)
x - skip fixing if both ima and evm xattrs exist (use with caution)
m - stay on the same filesystem (like 'find -xdev')
-n print result to stdout instead of setting xattr
-r, --recursive recurse into directories (sign)
--m32 force signature for 32 bit target system
--m64 force signature for 32 bit target system
-v increase verbosity level
-h, --help display this help and exit
Key and signature formats
-------------------------
EVM support (v2) in latest version of the kernel adds the file system UUID to
the HMAC calculation. It is controlled by the CONFIG_EVM_HMAC_VERSION and
version 2 is enabled by default. In this version default UUID is included by
default. Custom value can be supplied via '--uuid=UUID' or '-uUUID' parameter
to the 'sign' command. To use old format HMAC format use '-' as a parameter.
Latest kernel got IMA/EVM support for using X509 certificates and asymmetric key
support for verifying digital signatures. This version uses x509 format by default.
Use '--rsa' or '-1' parameter to use old signature format and API.
Key generation
--------------
Generate private key in plain text format:
openssl genrsa -out privkey_evm.pem 1024
Generate encrypted private key:
openssl genrsa -des3 -out privkey_evm.pem 1024
Make encrypted private key from unencrypted:
openssl rsa -in /etc/keys/privkey_evm.pem -out privkey_evm_enc.pem -des3
Generate self-signed X509 certificate and private key for using kernel
asymmetric keys support:
openssl req -new -nodes -utf8 -sha1 -days 36500 -batch \
-x509 -config x509_evm.genkey \
-outform DER -out x509_evm.der -keyout privkey_evm.pem
Configuration file x509_evm.genkey:
# Begining of the file
[ req ]
default_bits = 1024
distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name
prompt = no
string_mask = utf8only
x509_extensions = myexts
[ req_distinguished_name ]
O = Magrathea
CN = Glacier signing key
emailAddress = slartibartfast@magrathea.h2g2
[ myexts ]
basicConstraints=critical,CA:FALSE
keyUsage=digitalSignature
subjectKeyIdentifier=hash
authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid
# EOF
Get public key:
openssl rsa -pubout -in privkey_evm.pem -out pubkey_evm.pem
Copy keys to /etc/keys:
cp pubkey_evm.pem /etc/keys
scp pubkey_evm.pem target:/etc/keys
or
cp x509_evm.pem /etc/keys
scp x509_evm.pem target:/etc/keys
Generate EVM keys:
# create and save the kernel master key (user type)
keyctl add user kmk "`dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1 count=32 2>/dev/null`" @u
keyctl pipe `keyctl search @u user kmk` > /etc/keys/kmk
# create the EVM encrypted key
keyctl add encrypted evm-key "new user:kmk 32" @u
keyctl pipe `keyctl search @u encrypted evm-key` >/etc/keys/evm-key
Initialization
--------------
IMA/EVM initialization should be normally done from initial RAM file system
before mounting root filesystem.
Here is an example script /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/ima.sh
# import EVM HMAC key
keyctl clear @u
cat /etc/keys/kmk | keyctl padd user kmk @u
keyctl add encrypted evm-key "load `cat /etc/keys/evm-key`" @u
# import IMA public key
ima_id=`keyctl newring _ima @u`
evmctl --rsa import /etc/keys/pubkey_evm.pem $ima_id
# import EVM public key
evm_id=`keyctl newring _evm @u`
evmctl --rsa import /etc/keys/pubkey_evm.pem $evm_id
# enable EVM
echo "1" > /sys/kernel/security/evm
Import X509 certificate into the kernel keyring (since kernel 3.9?):
evmctl import /etc/keys/x509_evm.der `keyctl search @u keyring _ima`
evmctl import /etc/keys/x509_evm.der `keyctl search @u keyring _evm`
Signing
-------
Default public key: /etc/keys/pubkey_evm.pem
Default private key: /etc/keys/privkey_evm.pem
Default X509 certificate: /etc/keys/x509_evm.der
Signing for using old RSA format is done using '-1' or '--rsa' parameter.
Signing for using old EVM HMAC format is done using '-u-' or '--uuid=-' parameter.
Sign file with EVM signature and use hash value for IMA - common case:
evmctl sign [-u] [-1] --imahash test.txt
Sign file with both IMA and EVM signatures - for immutable files:
evmctl sign [-u] [-1] --imasig test.txt:
Sign file with IMA signature - for immutable files:
evmctl ima_sign [-1] test.txt
Label whole filesystem with EVM signatures:
find / \( -fstype rootfs -o -fstype ext4 \) -exec evmctl sign [-u] [-1] --imahash '{}' \;
Label filesystem in fix mode - kernel sets correct values to IMA and EVM xattrs:
find / \( -fstype rootfs -o -fstype ext4 \) -exec sh -c "< '{}'" \;
