[PATCH v3 ima-evm-utils 0/4] Simple EVM HMAC calculation tests

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

 



From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add two simple tests to check whether or not the HMAC calculated by the
kernel and evmctl matches. Do one tests with a regular file, using SELinux
or Smack as active LSM (whichever is available, or with both for the UML
kernel) and another test with a directory successfully transmuted with
Smack.

Also add two bug fixes to include the filesystem UUID and the inode
generation in the HMAC calculation, and the new option --hmackey to specify
an alternate location of the HMAC key.

Changelog

v2:
- Set TST_EVM_CHANGE_MODE in Github Action workflow (suggested by Mimi)
- Add SELinux to kernel configuration option for CI
- Parameterize the check_evm_hmac() test with the LSM to test
- Skip the check_evm_hmac() test if the chosen LSM is not active
- Load the existing SELinux policy in the UML kernel environment
- Check EVM support for the additional Smack xattrs only in the
  check_evm_hmac_transmute() test (suggested by Mimi)
- Run the UML kernel twice, once with SELinux enabled and once with Smack
- Clarify in the error message why having at least one LSM active is
  necessary
- Add a justification for the --hmackey option added to evmctl (suggested
  by Mimi)

v1:
- Add documentation for --hmackey option of evmctl (suggested by Mimi)
- Update kernel configuration for CI
- Include inode generation in HMAC calculation for directories
- Specify kernel patches required for the tests (suggested by Mimi)
- Move xattr compare code to compare_xattr()
- Add new Smack-specific test to check HMAC of transmuting directory
  (suggested by Mimi)
- Check in the test that the --hmackey option is available (suggested by
  Mimi)
- Remove i_version mount option (should be default in ext4)
- Mount smackfs if the UML kernel is used
