[RFC PATCH] fw_lockdown: new micro LSM module to prevent loading unsigned firmware

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

 



Hi David,

If you are interested in preventing the loading of unsigned firmware,
the patch below is straight forward.  The patch has ONLY been tested
with IMA-appraisal enabled, and works as intended - allowing only
signed firmware to be loaded.

If the kernel is locked down and IMA-appraisal is not enabled, prevent
loading of unsigned firmware.
