[RFC][PATCH 7/7] ima: Add support for appraisal with digest lists

Thu Sep 30 11:55:33 UTC 2021


Introduce a new appraisal method based on the lookup of the file and
metadata digest in the DIGLIM hash table, enabled with the use_diglim
directive.

First pass to ima_appraise_measurement() the actions performed on the
digest lists containing the found digests.

Then, consider the metadata verification as successful if EVM returned the
status INTEGRITY_NOLABEL (no security.evm), if the metadata digest was
found in the DIGLIM hash table and at least one digest list containing it
was succefully appraised with a signature.

Finally, consider the file content verification as successful if there is
no security.ima or appended signature, if the file or metadata digest
(calculated with the actual file digest) were found in the DIGLIM hash
table and at least one digest list containing it has a valid signature.

Furthermore, mark the file as immutable if the COMPACT_MOD_IMMUTABLE
modifier was set in the header of the digest lists containing the found
digests.
