IMA file signer using keyring asymmetric keys

This tool can be used to sign files with IMA signatures with a key that's stored in the kernel Keyring.

Steps to try

Generate a new RSA key:

$ openssl genrsa | openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -nocrypt -outform DER -out privatekey.der

Create a public certificate with the key:

$ openssl req -x509 -key privatekey.der -out certificate.pem -days 365 -keyform DER

Load the key onto the keyring:

$ keyctl padd asymmetric $description @u <privatekey.der (if this fails with Bad message, load the PKCS8 key parser: modprobe pkcs8_key_parser).

Sign a file:

$ cargo run -- $description certificate.pem sha256 -- myfile.txt

In order to embed the signature as extended attribute, run:

$ cargo run -- $description certificate.pem sha256 -- --xattr myfile.txt

If you decide to first make a sigfile (default), and then later on want to add it as an extended attribute, run:

$ cargo run -- --presigned myfile.txt

Encode the certificate for verification:

$ openssl x509 -in certificate.pem -inform PEM -out certificate.der -outform DER

Verify the signature:

$ evmctl ima_verify --sigfile --key certificate.der -v myfile.txt

Usage

The general usage:

keyring-ima-signer <key-description> <public-pem-cert-path> <hash-algo> [file ...]

The supported hash algorithms are: sha1, sha256

In the file section, you can add a --xattr. When you add that, any following files will have the signature embedded as extended attribute. Use --sigfile to change back to detached signature files.
