2019-06-30IMA: Define a new template field bufPrakhar Srivastava
A buffer(kexec boot command line arguments) measured into IMA measuremnt list cannot be appraised, without already being aware of the buffer contents. Since hashes are non-reversible, raw buffer is needed for validation or regenerating hash for appraisal/attestation. Add support to store/read the buffer contents in HEX. The kexec cmdline hash is stored in the "d-ng" field of the template data. It can be verified using sudo cat /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements | grep kexec-cmdline | cut -d' ' -f 6 | xxd -r -p | sha256sum - Add two new fields to ima_event_data to hold the buf and buf_len - Add a new template field 'buf' to be used to store/read the buffer data. - Updated process_buffer_meaurement to add the buffer to ima_event_data. process_buffer_measurement added in "Define a new IMA hook to measure the boot command line arguments" - Add a new template policy name ima-buf to represent 'd-ng|n-ng|buf' Signed-off-by: Prakhar Srivastava <prsriva02@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: James Morris <jamorris@linux.microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@linux.ibm.com>
