[RFC][PATCH v2 8/9] ima: Use digest caches for appraisal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@xxxxxxxxxx>

Similarly to measurement, enable the new appraisal style too using digest
caches.

Instead of verifying individual file signatures, verify the signature of
lists of digests and search calculated file digests in those lists.

The benefits are that signed lists of digests already exist (e.g. RPM
package headers), although their format needs to be supported by the
digest_cache LSM, and appraisal with digest lists is computationally much
less expensive than with individual file signatures (see the performance
evaluation of the digest_cache LSM).

Take the allowed usage after the call to
ima_digest_cache_update_allowed_usage(), and pass it to
ima_appraise_measurement().

If EVM is disabled or the file does not have any protected xattr
(evm_verifyxattr() returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN or INTEGRITY_NOXATTRS) and the
allowed usage has the IMA_DIGEST_CACHE_APPRAISE_DATA flag set, mark the
file as successfully appraised (i.e. set the integrity status to
INTEGRITY_PASS and return zero).

The digest cache method is tried first, for performance reasons, in the
event there are for example IMA signatures in the system (which are
computationally more expensive to verify). The usage of the digest_cache
LSM has anyway to be authorized in the IMA policy.
