[libvirt PATCH v3 02/12] tools: support validating SEV firmware boot measurements

Wed Nov 2 11:58:51 UTC 2022


The virt-qemu-sev-validate program will compare a reported SEV/SEV-ES
domain launch measurement, to a computed launch measurement. This
determines whether the domain has been tampered with during launch.

This initial implementation requires all inputs to be provided
explicitly, and as such can run completely offline, without any
connection to libvirt.

The tool is placed in the libvirt-client-qemu sub-RPM since it is
specific to the QEMU driver.

+validate a domain AMD SEV launch measurement
+--------------------------------------------
+
+:Manual section: 1
+:Manual group: Virtualization Support
+
+.. contents::
+
+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+
+``virt-qemu-sev-validate`` [*OPTIONS*]
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+This program validates the reported measurement for a domain launched with AMD
+SEV. If the program exits with a status of zero, the guest owner can be
+confident that their guest OS is running under the protection offered by the
+SEV / SEV-ES platform.
+
+Note that the level of protection varies depending on the AMD SEV platform
+generation and describing the differences is outside the scope of this
+document.
+
+For the results of this program to be considered trustworthy, it is required to
+be run on a machine that is already trusted by the guest owner. This could be a
+machine that the guest owner has direct physical control over, or it could be
+another virtual machine protected by AMD SEV that has already had its launch
+measurement validated. Running this program on the virtualization host will not
+produce an answer that can be trusted.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+
+Common options
+--------------
+
+``-h``, ``--help``
+
+Display command line help usage then exit.
+
+``-d``, ``--debug``
+
+Show debug information while running
+
+``-q``, ``--quiet``
+
+Don't print information about the attestation result.
+
+Guest state options
+-------------------
+
+These options provide information about the state of the guest that needs its
+boot attested.
+
+``--measurement BASE64-STRING``
+
+The launch measurement reported by the hypervisor of the domain to be validated.
+The measurement must be 48 bytes of binary data encoded as a base64 string.
+
+``--api-major VERSION``
+
+The SEV API major version of the hypervisor the domain is running on.
+
+``--api-minor VERSION``
+
+The SEV API major version of the hypervisor the domain is running on.
+
+``--build-id ID``
+
+The SEV build ID of the hypervisor the domain is running on.
+
+``--policy POLiCY``
+
+The policy bitmask associated with the session launch data of the domain to be
+validated.
+
+Guest config options
+--------------------
+
+These options provide items needed to calculate the expected domain launch
+measurement. This will then be compared to the reported launch measurement.
+
+``-f PATH``, ``--firmware=PATH``
+
+Path to the firmware loader binary. This is the EDK2 build that knows how to
+initialize AMD SEV. For the validation to be trustworthy it important that the
+firmware build used has no support for loading non-volatile variables from
+NVRAM, even if NVRAM is expose to the guest.
+
+``--tik PATH``
+
+TIK file for domain. This file must be exactly 16 bytes in size and contains the
+unique transport integrity key associated with the domain session launch data.
+This is mutually exclusive with the ``--tk`` argument.
+
+``--tek PATH``
+
+TEK file for domain. This file must be exactly 16 bytes in size and contains the
+unique transport encryption key associated with the domain session launch data.
+This is mutually exclusive with the ``--tk`` argument.
+
+``--tek PATH``
+
+TEK/TIK combined file for the domain. This file must be exactly 32 bytes in
+size, with the first 16 bytes containing the TEK and the last 16 bytes
+containing the TIK.  This is mutually exclusive with the ``--tik`` and ``--tek``
+arguments.
+
+EXAMPLES
+========
+
+Fully offline execution
+-----------------------
+
+This scenario allows a measurement to be securely validated in a completely
+offline state without any connection to the hypervisor host. All required
+data items must be provided as command line parameters. This usage model is
+considered secure, because all input data is provided by the user.
+
+Validate the measurement of a SEV guest booting from disk:
+
+::
+
+   # virt-qemu-sev-validate \
+       --firmware OVMF.sev.fd \
+       --tk this-guest-tk.bin \
+       --measurement Zs2pf19ubFSafpZ2WKkwquXvACx9Wt/BV+eJwQ/taO8jhyIj/F8swFrybR1fZ2ID \
+       --api-major 0 \
+       --api-minor 24 \
+       --build-id 13 \
+       --policy 3
+
+EXIT STATUS
+===========
+
+Upon successful attestation of the launch measurement, an exit status of 0 will
+be set.
+
+Upon failure to attest the launch measurement one of the following codes will
+be set:
+
+* **1** - *Guest measurement did not validate*
+
+  Assuming the inputs to this program are correct, the virtual machine launch
+  has been compromised and it should not be trusted henceforth.
+
+* **2** - *Usage scenario cannot be supported*
+
+  The way in which this program has been invoked prevent it from being able to
+  validate the launch measurement.
+
+* **3** - *unexpected error occurred in the code*
+
+  A logic flaw in this program means it is unable to complete the validation of
+  the measurement. This is a bug which should be reported to the maintainers.

+# Validates a guest AMD SEV launch measurement
+#
+# A general principle in writing this tool is that it must calculate the
+# expected measurement based entirely on information it receives on the CLI
+# from the guest owner.
+#
+# It cannot generally trust information obtained from the guest XML or from the
+# virtualization host OS. The main exceptions are:
+#
+#  - The guest measurement
+#
+#    This is a result of cryptographic operation using a shared secret known
+#    only to the guest owner and SEV platform, not the host OS.
+#
+#  - The guest policy
+#
+#    This is encoded in the launch session blob that is encrypted with a shared
+#    secret known only to the guest owner and SEV platform, not the host OS. It
+#    is impossible for the host OS to maliciously launch a guest with different
+#    policy and the user provided launch session blob.
+#
+#    CAVEAT: the user must ALWAYS create a launch blob with freshly generated
+#    TIK/TEK for every new VM. Re-use of the same TIK/TEK for multiple VMs
+#    is insecure.
+#
+#  - The SEV API version / build ID
+#
+#    This does not have an impact on the security of the measurement, unless
+#    the guest owner needs a guarantee that the host is not using specific
+#    firmware versions with known flaws.
