Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -06001Verified Boot on the Beaglebone Black
2=====================================
3
4Introduction
5------------
6
7Before reading this, please read verified-boot.txt and signature.txt. These
8instructions are for mainline U-Boot from v2014.07 onwards.
9
10There is quite a bit of documentation in this directory describing how
11verified boot works in U-Boot. There is also a test which runs through the
12entire process of signing an image and running U-Boot (sandbox) to check it.
13However, it might be useful to also have an example on a real board.
14
15Beaglebone Black is a fairly common board so seems to be a reasonable choice
16for an example of how to enable verified boot using U-Boot.
17
18First a note that may to help avoid confusion. U-Boot and Linux both use
19device tree. They may use the same device tree source, but it is seldom useful
20for them to use the exact same binary from the same place. More typically,
21U-Boot has its device tree packaged wtih it, and the kernel's device tree is
22packaged with the kernel. In particular this is important with verified boot,
23since U-Boot's device tree must be immutable. If it can be changed then the
24public keys can be changed and verified boot is useless. An attacker can
25simply generate a new key and put his public key into U-Boot so that
26everything verifies. On the other hand the kernel's device tree typically
27changes when the kernel changes, so it is useful to package an updated device
28tree with the kernel binary. U-Boot supports the latter with its flexible FIT
29format (Flat Image Tree).
30
31
32Overview
33--------
34
35The steps are roughly as follows:
36
371. Build U-Boot for the board, with the verified boot options enabled.
38
392. Obtain a suitable Linux kernel
40
413. Create a Image Tree Source file (ITS) file describing how you want the
42kernel to be packaged, compressed and signed.
43
444. Create a key pair
45
465. Sign the kernel
47
486. Put the public key into U-Boot's image
49
507. Put U-Boot and the kernel onto the board
51
528. Try it
53
54
55Step 1: Build U-Boot
56--------------------
57
58a. Set up the environment variable to point to your toolchain. You will need
59this for U-Boot and also for the kernel if you build it. For example if you
60installed a Linaro version manually it might be something like:
61
62 export CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/linaro/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2013.08_linux/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-
63
64or if you just installed gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi then it might be
65
66 export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi-
67
68b. Configure and build U-Boot with verified boot enabled:
69
70 export ARCH=arm
71 export UBOOT=/path/to/u-boot
72 cd $UBOOT
73 # You can add -j10 if you have 10 CPUs to make it faster
74 make O=b/am335x_boneblack_vboot am335x_boneblack_vboot_config all
75 export UOUT=$UBOOT/b/am335x_boneblack_vboot
76
77c. You will now have a U-Boot image:
78
79 file b/am335x_boneblack_vboot/u-boot-dtb.img
80b/am335x_boneblack_vboot/u-boot-dtb.img: u-boot legacy uImage, U-Boot 2014.07-rc2-00065-g2f69f8, Firmware/ARM, Firmware Image (Not compressed), 395375 bytes, Sat May 31 16:19:04 2014, Load Address: 0x80800000, Entry Point: 0x00000000, Header CRC: 0x0ABD6ACA, Data CRC: 0x36DEF7E4
81
82
83Step 2: Build Linux
84--------------------
85
86a. Find the kernel image ('Image') and device tree (.dtb) file you plan to
87use. In our case it is am335x-boneblack.dtb and it is built with the kernel.
88At the time of writing an SD Boot image can be obtained from here:
89
90 http://www.elinux.org/Beagleboard:Updating_The_Software#Image_For_Booting_From_microSD
91
92You can write this to an SD card and then mount it to extract the kernel and
93device tree files.
94
95You can also build a kernel. Instructions for this are are here:
96
97 http://elinux.org/Building_BBB_Kernel
98
99or you can use your favourite search engine. Following these instructions
100produces a kernel Image and device tree files. For the record the steps were:
101
102 export KERNEL=/path/to/kernel
103 cd $KERNEL
104 git clone git://github.com/beagleboard/kernel.git .
105 git checkout v3.14
106 ./patch.sh
107 cp configs/beaglebone kernel/arch/arm/configs/beaglebone_defconfig
108 cd kernel
109 make beaglebone_defconfig
110 make uImage dtbs # -j10 if you have 10 CPUs
111 export OKERNEL=$KERNEL/kernel/arch/arm/boot
112
113c. You now have the 'Image' and 'am335x-boneblack.dtb' files needed to boot.
114
115
116Step 3: Create the ITS
117----------------------
118
119Set up a directory for your work.
120
121 export WORK=/path/to/dir
122 cd $WORK
123
124Put this into a file in that directory called sign.its:
125
126/dts-v1/;
127
128/ {
129 description = "Beaglebone black";
130 #address-cells = <1>;
131
132 images {
Andre Przywara83840402017-12-04 02:05:07 +0000133 kernel {
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600134 data = /incbin/("Image.lzo");
135 type = "kernel";
136 arch = "arm";
137 os = "linux";
138 compression = "lzo";
139 load = <0x80008000>;
140 entry = <0x80008000>;
Andre Przywara83840402017-12-04 02:05:07 +0000141 hash-1 {
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600142 algo = "sha1";
143 };
144 };
Andre Przywara83840402017-12-04 02:05:07 +0000145 fdt-1 {
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600146 description = "beaglebone-black";
147 data = /incbin/("am335x-boneblack.dtb");
148 type = "flat_dt";
149 arch = "arm";
150 compression = "none";
Andre Przywara83840402017-12-04 02:05:07 +0000151 hash-1 {
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600152 algo = "sha1";
153 };
154 };
155 };
156 configurations {
Andre Przywara83840402017-12-04 02:05:07 +0000157 default = "conf-1";
158 conf-1 {
159 kernel = "kernel";
160 fdt = "fdt-1";
161 signature-1 {
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600162 algo = "sha1,rsa2048";
163 key-name-hint = "dev";
164 sign-images = "fdt", "kernel";
165 };
166 };
167 };
168};
169
170
171The explanation for this is all in the documentation you have already read.
172But briefly it packages a kernel and device tree, and provides a single
173configuration to be signed with a key named 'dev'. The kernel is compressed
174with LZO to make it smaller.
175
176
177Step 4: Create a key pair
178-------------------------
179
180See signature.txt for details on this step.
181
182 cd $WORK
183 mkdir keys
184 openssl genrsa -F4 -out keys/dev.key 2048
185 openssl req -batch -new -x509 -key keys/dev.key -out keys/dev.crt
186
187Note: keys/dev.key contains your private key and is very secret. If anyone
188gets access to that file they can sign kernels with it. Keep it secure.
189
190
191Step 5: Sign the kernel
192-----------------------
193
194We need to use mkimage (which was built when you built U-Boot) to package the
195Linux kernel into a FIT (Flat Image Tree, a flexible file format that U-Boot
196can load) using the ITS file you just created.
197
198At the same time we must put the public key into U-Boot device tree, with the
199'required' property, which tells U-Boot that this key must be verified for the
200image to be valid. You will make this key available to U-Boot for booting in
201step 6.
202
203 ln -s $OKERNEL/dts/am335x-boneblack.dtb
204 ln -s $OKERNEL/Image
205 ln -s $UOUT/u-boot-dtb.img
206 cp $UOUT/arch/arm/dts/am335x-boneblack.dtb am335x-boneblack-pubkey.dtb
207 lzop Image
208 $UOUT/tools/mkimage -f sign.its -K am335x-boneblack-pubkey.dtb -k keys -r image.fit
209
210You should see something like this:

242Now am335x-boneblack-pubkey.dtb contains the public key and image.fit contains
243the signed kernel. Jump to step 6 if you like, or continue reading to increase

298
299
300At the top, you see "sha1,rsa2048:dev+". This means that it checked an RSA key
301of size 2048 bits using SHA1 as the hash algorithm. The key name checked was
302'dev' and the '+' means that it verified. If it showed '-' that would be bad.
303
304Once the configuration is verified it is then possible to rely on the hashes
305in each image referenced by that configuration. So fit_check_sign goes on to
306load each of the images. We have a kernel and an FDT but no ramkdisk. In each
307case fit_check_sign checks the hash and prints sha1+ meaning that the SHA1
308hash verified. This means that none of the images has been tampered with.
309
310There is a test in test/vboot which uses U-Boot's sandbox build to verify that
311the above flow works.
312
313But it is fun to do this by hand, so you can load image.fit into a hex editor
314like ghex, and change a byte in the kernel:
315
Andre Przywara83840402017-12-04 02:05:07 +0000316 $UOUT/tools/fit_info -f image.fit -n /images/kernel -p data
317NAME: kernel
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600318LEN: 7790938
319OFF: 168
320
321This tells us that the kernel starts at byte offset 168 (decimal) in image.fit
322and extends for about 7MB. Try changing a byte at 0x2000 (say) and run
323fit_check_sign again. You should see something like:

375You can also be sneaky and try to switch images, using the libfdt utilities

407This gives us a bit of a look into the signature that mkimage added. Note you
408can also use fdtdump to list the entire device tree.
409
410Say we want to change the kernel that this configuration uses
Andre Przywara83840402017-12-04 02:05:07 +0000411(/images/kernel). We could just put a new kernel in the image, but we will
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600412need to change the hash to match. Let's simulate that by changing a byte of
413the hash:
414
Andre Przywara83840402017-12-04 02:05:07 +0000415 fdtget -tx image.fit /images/kernel/hash-1 value
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600416c9436464 6427e10f 423837e5 59898ef0 2c97b988

Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600418
419Now check it again:
420
421 $UOUT/tools/fit_check_sign -f image.fit -k am335x-boneblack-pubkey.dtb
422Verifying Hash Integrity ... sha1,rsa2048:devrsa_verify_with_keynode: RSA failed to verify: -13

424-
425Failed to verify required signature 'key-dev'
426Signature check Bad (error 1)
427
428This time we don't even get as far as checking the images, since the
429configuration signature doesn't match. We can't change any hashes without the
430signature check noticing. The configuration is essentially locked. U-Boot has
431a public key for which it requires a match, and will not permit the use of any
432configuration that does not match that public key. The only way the
433configuration will match is if it was signed by the matching private key.
434
435It would also be possible to add a new signature node that does match your new
436configuration. But that won't work since you are not allowed to change the
437configuration in any way. Try it with a fresh (valid) image if you like by
438running the mkimage link again. Then:

450Of course it would be possible to add an entirely new configuration and boot
451with that, but it still needs to be signed, so it won't help.

4546. Put the public key into U-Boot's image
455-----------------------------------------
456
457Having confirmed that the signature is doing its job, let's try it out in
458U-Boot on the board. U-Boot needs access to the public key corresponding to
459the private key that you signed with so that it can verify any kernels that
460you sign.
461
462 cd $UBOOT
463 make O=b/am335x_boneblack_vboot EXT_DTB=${WORK}/am335x-boneblack-pubkey.dtb
464
Pierre-Jean Texier612e9912018-08-18 15:51:25 +0200465Here we are overriding the normal device tree file with our one, which
Simon Glassc7320ed2014-06-12 07:24:54 -0600466contains the public key.
467
468Now you have a special U-Boot image with the public key. It can verify can
469kernel that you sign with the private key as in step 5.
470
471If you like you can take a look at the public key information that mkimage
472added to U-Boot's device tree:
473
474 fdtget -p am335x-boneblack-pubkey.dtb /signature/key-dev
475required
476algo
477rsa,r-squared
478rsa,modulus
479rsa,n0-inverse
480rsa,num-bits
481key-name-hint
482
483This has information about the key and some pre-processed values which U-Boot
484can use to verify against it. These values are obtained from the public key
485certificate by mkimage, but require quite a bit of code to generate. To save
486code space in U-Boot, the information is extracted and written in raw form for
487U-Boot to easily use. The same mechanism is used in Google's Chrome OS.
488
489Notice the 'required' property. This marks the key as required - U-Boot will
490not boot any image that does not verify against this key.
491
492
4937. Put U-Boot and the kernel onto the board
494-------------------------------------------
495
496The method here varies depending on how you are booting. For this example we
497are booting from an micro-SD card with two partitions, one for U-Boot and one
498for Linux. Put it into your machine and write U-Boot and the kernel to it.
499Here the card is /dev/sde:
500
501 cd $WORK
502 export UDEV=/dev/sde1 # Change thes two lines to the correct device
503 export KDEV=/dev/sde2
504 sudo mount $UDEV /mnt/tmp && sudo cp $UOUT/u-boot-dtb.img /mnt/tmp/u-boot.img && sleep 1 && sudo umount $UDEV
505 sudo mount $KDEV /mnt/tmp && sudo cp $WORK/image.fit /mnt/tmp/boot/image.fit && sleep 1 && sudo umount $KDEV
506
507
5088. Try it
509---------
510
511Boot the board using the commands below:
512
513 setenv bootargs console=ttyO0,115200n8 quiet root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 ro rootfstype=ext4 rootwait
514 ext2load mmc 0:2 82000000 /boot/image.fit
515 bootm 82000000
516
517You should then see something like this:
518
519U-Boot# setenv bootargs console=ttyO0,115200n8 quiet root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 ro rootfstype=ext4 rootwait
520U-Boot# ext2load mmc 0:2 82000000 /boot/image.fit

584At this point your kernel has been verified and you can be sure that it is one
585that you signed. As an exercise, try changing image.fit as in step 5 and see
586what happens.
587
588
589Further Improvements
590--------------------
591
592Several of the steps here can be easily automated. In particular it would be
593capital if signing and packaging a kernel were easy, perhaps a simple make
594target in the kernel.
595
596Some mention of how to use multiple .dtb files in a FIT might be useful.
597
598U-Boot's verified boot mechanism has not had a robust and independent security
599review. Such a review should look at the implementation and its resistance to
600attacks.
601
602Perhaps the verified boot feature could could be integrated into the Amstrom
603distribution.
