I don't like > the ABI break that this causes. It doesn't break the ABI because keys loaded in the blacklist keyring can only happen with builtin hashes. Moreover these builtin hashes will be checked by patch 10/10 at build time. This patch is also important to remove a false sense of security and warns about mis-blacklisted certificates or binaries: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/c9664a67-61b7-6b4a-86d7-5aca9ff06fa5@xxxxxxxxxxx/ Hot-patching keys doesn't seem a good idea, especially when these keys are signed. Moreover, it would bring additional complexity and will require to change the core of the key management. > > /Jarkko >
