Measuring keys requires a custom IMA policy to be loaded. Keys should be queued for measurement if a custom IMA policy is not yet loaded. Keys queued for measurement, if any, should be processed when a custom IMA policy is loaded. This patch updates the IMA hook function ima_post_key_create_or_update() to queue the key if a custom IMA policy has not yet been loaded. And, ima_update_policy() function, which is called when a custom IMA policy is loaded, is updated to process queued keys. Sample "key" measurement rule in the IMA policy: measure func=KEY_CHECK uid=0 keyrings=.ima|.builtin_trusted_keys template=ima-buf If the kernel is built with one or more built-in trusted certificates, IMA measurement should list all the keys imported from those certificates. Display "key" measurement in the IMA measurement list: cat /sys/kernel/security/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements 10 faf3...e702 ima-buf sha256:27c915b8ddb9fae7214cf0a8a7043cc3eeeaa7539bcb136f8427067b5f6c3b7b .builtin_trusted_keys 308202863082...4aee Verify "key" measurement data for a key added to ".builtin_trusted_keys" keyring: cat /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements | grep -m 1 "\.builtin_trusted_keys" | cut -d' ' -f 6 | xxd -r -p |tee btk-cert.der | sha256sum | cut -d' ' -f 1 The output of the above command should match the template hash of the first "key" measurement entry in the IMA measurement list for the key added to ".builtin_trusted_keys" keyring. The file namely "btk-cert.der" generated by the above command should be a valid x509 certificate (in DER format) and should match the one that was used to import the key to the ".builtin_trusted_keys" keyring. The certificate file can be verified using openssl tool.
