Signatures couldn't be verified - public key - Ubuntu 20.04 Focal

Magicrafter13 opened this issue 3 years ago · comments

I did see other mentions of this issue, but they seemed to be related to users running an unsupported distro. However, Ubuntu Focal is listed as supported.

Wish Canonical would provide something newer than version 10.x.x...
I had a version that was at least as high as 12 yesterday, and after reinstalling everything I'm not sure how I managed that in the past, I don't recall using nodesource previously, but npm and n were unable to update me to version 14, hoping I have better luck here.

I also get this error since today:

W: GPG error: https://deb.nodesource.com jessie InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 1655A0AB68576280

Last week it worked fine while building a docker image. I think it is related to this commit from 3 days ago: 1e1ee93

I get this while running the setup for Node 12.x in my dockerfile like this:

RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | bash - \
    && apt-get install --yes nodejs

OS is Debian Jessie.

Koen Castermans · Answer 2 · Mon Mar 22 2021 18:54:15 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I "fixed" it by running the following command before the setup:

curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/gpgkey/nodesource.gpg.key | apt-key add -

I got this from the manual installation guide.

So in my dockerfile I have it like this now:

RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/gpgkey/nodesource.gpg.key | apt-key add -
RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | bash - \
    && apt-get install --yes nodejs

As @KoenCa just mentioned above, in Debian Jessie, which has reached its end-of-life on June 30, 2020, I was able to reproduce this behavior consistently (it was expected also for Ubuntu Trusty Tahr). However, I was not able to consistently reproduce it on Ubuntu Focal Fossa.

Can you give us more information regarding your environment @Magicrafter13?

Barry Coughlan · Answer 4 · Mon Mar 22 2021 22:47:29 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I encountered this issue due to using a non-default umask (umask 0027) as required by the CIS benchmark standard. This caused /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg to be written with 640 permissions instead of 644, so only root could read it. So it should be reproducible by running umask 0027 before curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -. After running chmod a+r /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg apt-get update completed successfully.

Barry Coughlan · Answer 5 · Mon Mar 22 2021 23:12:44 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

^^ Sorry I actually had to sudo su, run umask 0027 and then curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | bash - to reproduce (no sudo -E) so that the child process would inherit the umask value

I got the same error @KoenCa describes while trying to instal LTS version in debian 8. This prevents quiet apt-get install without --force-yes flag because of the warning:

RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_lts.x | sudo -E bash - && \ sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

W: GPG error: https://deb.nodesource.com jessie InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 1655A0AB68576280

Koen Castermans · Answer 7 · Tue Mar 23 2021 15:07:23 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I "fixed" it by running the following command before the setup:
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/gpgkey/nodesource.gpg.key | apt-key add -
I got this from the manual installation guide.

So in my dockerfile I have it like this now:
RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/gpgkey/nodesource.gpg.key | apt-key add -
RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | bash - \
    && apt-get install --yes nodejs

I also updated the base image of my dockerfile and now it uses Debian Buster. I removed the line with the fix and it works like normal.

Pavel Lobashov · Answer 8 · Fri Mar 26 2021 19:34:58 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Same problem with ubuntu 14.04 (I've know it's EOLed, just as info):

FROM ubuntu:14.04

RUN apt-get -y update && \
    apt-get -y install curl

RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | bash - && \
    apt-get -y install nodejs

result:

WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
  nodejs
E: There are problems and -y was used without --force-yes

And same Dockerfile is fine with 16.04

FROM ubuntu:16.04

RUN apt-get -y update && \
    apt-get -y install curl

RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | bash - && \
    apt-get -y install nodejs

Any specific information that would help? Despite having the server running for over a year, I can't really think of anything "stand out" about my env.

Matthew · Answer 10 · Sat Mar 27 2021 13:26:10 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I encountered this issue due to using a non-default umask (umask 0027) as required by the CIS benchmark standard.

After running chmod a+r /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg apt-get update completed successfully.

I checked, and the permissions of this file were also 640 for me. I've never touched the umask to my knowledge (I assume that's something I'd have to change in /etc/fstab?), so I'm not sure how it would have been changed (assuming it was changed, which I don't actually know for sure).

Okay, I also figured out how to check my umask, which is 022, so if the file permissions are an issue, there must be a different cause.

I also had the error with Ubuntu bionic.

Checked the permissions of /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg and it was 600. Changing it to 644 fixed the issue.

@igsu I'm sorry why this closed without any comments? Issue still actual for me on Ubuntu 14.04

Iván Iguarán · Answer 13 · Thu Apr 08 2021 23:06:49 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

@ShockwaveNN We cannot maintain apt-key as it is scheduled for removal:

https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/-/commit/ee284d5917d09649b68ff1632d44e892f290c52f
https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/-/commit/ee284d5917d09649b68ff1632d44e892f290c52f#d1b035cd43f3c2f65d2be57ba185053090491a35_47_48

Maintaining deprecated tools so that our scripts work on distributions that are already EOL like Debian Jessie and Ubuntu 14.04 is not a good practice, that is way we are moving with the procedure recommended by Debian:

https://wiki.debian.org/DebianRepository/UseThirdParty

We are sorry that it does not work on those distributions but it is a must.

You can follow the manual instructions that still work on the aforementioned distributions.

Matthew · Answer 14 · Fri Apr 16 2021 14:34:06 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Okay, but what's the issue for me then, @igsu ? I'm on current LTS, certainly not EOL.

Okay, but what's the issue for me then, @igsu ? I'm on current LTS, certainly not EOL.

Same here,

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Release:        18.04
Codename:       bionic

This problem need to be fix, as it is not the apt-key's problem.

The real fix has been provided by @kosala-almeda:

I also had the error with Ubuntu bionic.

. . .

Checked the permissions of /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg and it was 600. Changing it to 644 fixed the issue.

So please add a line chmod 644 /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg into the setup script.

Thanks

Oh man, the permissions ... that fixed it.

I had the same issue on Ubuntu-20.04. Tried to install nodejs 12.x Due to strange root settings on my corporate laptop, the permissions for files

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
/usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg

were wrong (600). Calling

$ sudo chmod 644 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
$ sudo chmod 644 /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg

has solved the problem. Feeling pretty angry that somebody's crooked hands can make our lives really difficult.

Linus Xanoni · Answer 18 · Wed Aug 25 2021 12:07:04 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

the root umask is probably set to 077 or sth like that

Just faced the same issue on Ubuntu 20.04.

Solved it by doing the following which is mainly based on the comments above:

curl -s https://deb.nodesource.com/gpgkey/nodesource.gpg.key | gpg --dearmor | tee /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg >/dev/null
echo 'deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg] https://deb.nodesource.com/node_18.x focal main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
echo 'deb-src [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg] https://deb.nodesource.com/node_18.x focal main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
chmod a+r /usr/share/keyrings/nodesource.gpg
apt update
apt install -y nodejs

I have the same problem on Linux Mint 21, but when installing Node 19. Tried chmoding the nodesource.list and gpg files, still get the exact same error.

Note: I have Node16 installed, I don't know if its existence may be causing a conflict in the install. I just want to replace the old version by the new one

Here is a working solution in Dockerfile tested on FROM ubuntu:focal-20220531

Hope this saves someone out there 3-5 hours+ trying to figure out why following the official NodeJS docs doesn't seem to work 🤷 Good luck 🍀
