Trusted Platform Module 2.0

Connect to a TPM 2.0 Device

Install the TSS2 Software Stack and tpm2 Tools

In order to connect to a TPM 2.0 hardware or firmware device, the TSS2 software stack developed by Intel is needed. Because the official Ubuntu tpm2-tss package is rather outdated (e.g. since version 0.98 the TCTI interface to the TPM 2.0 resource manager has changed several times), strongSwan is currently based on a recent version directly drawn from the TPM2-TSS git repository https://github.com/01org/TPM2.0-TSS. Avoid any TCTI interface incompatibilities by fetching the latest tpm2-tools version from https://github.com/01org/tpm2.0-tools as well.

Build and install both the tpm2-tss stack and the tpm2.0-tools, start the tpm2-resourcemgr as a service in the background and try to connect to the TPM 2.0 by listing e.g. the contents of the SHA-1 bank of PCR registers

tpm2_listpcrs -g 0x0004

Enable the strongSwan tpm Plugin

The strongSwan libtpmtss tpm plugin and the TSS2 interface are enabled and built with the following options

./configure --enable-tss-tss2 --enable tpm  ...

TPM 2.0 Algorithm IDs

Hash Algorithms

0x0004 SHA-1
0x000B SHA-2_256
0x000C SHA-2_384
0x000D SHA-2_512

Currently available TPM 2.0 devices like the Infineon Optiga SLB 9670 VQ2.0 hardware TPM or Intel's PTT firmware TPM integrated into the Management Engine starting with the 4th generation (Haswell) of the Core processor family, support the SHA-1 and SHA-2_256 algorithms.

Public Key Types

0x0001 RSA
0x0023 ECC

Currently RSA keys have a modulus size of 2048 bits and ECC keys are based on the 256 bit NIST curve.

Signature Schemes

0x0014 RSASSA
0x0016 RSAPSS
0x0018 ECDSA

Derive a Persistent RSA Endorsement Key

The following tpm2-tools command derives a 2048 bit RSA Endorsement Key (EK) in a deterministic way from the secret Endorsement Primary Seed unique to each TPM device and makes the key persistent in the non-volatile memory of the TPM under the object handle 0x81010001

tpm2_getpubek -H 0x81010001 -g 0x0001 -f ek_rsa.pub

The EK public key stored in the ek_rsa.pub file is encoded in a TPM 2.0 proprietary format but the key can be exported from the TPM in the regular PKCS#1 format using the pki tool

pki --pub --keyid 0x81010001 --outform pem > ek_rsa_pub.pem

The fingerprint of the RSA EK public key can be displayed with the command

pki --print --type pub --in ek_rsa_pub.pem
  pubkey:    RSA 2048 bits
  keyid:     d1:f1:49:84:36:44:e6:8c:d2:a6:69:ee:fd:b5:7d:56:2f:39:ff:58
  subjkey:   c1:1b:8e:f1:c7:f8:8a:1e:9a:dd:7e:82:2f:7a:a3:f5:c0:e2:4d:7d

Generate a Persistent RSA Attestation Key

A 2048 bit RSA Attestation Key (AK) bound to the EK with handle 0x81010001 can be created and made persistent under the handle 0x81010002 with the following tpm2-tools command

tpm2_getpubak -E 0x81010001 -g 0x0001 -D 0x000B -s 0x0014 -k 0x81010002 -P 123456 -f ak_rsa2.pub -n ak_rsa2.name

This AK key is protected by the PIN (-P parameter) 123456. The AK public key can now be exported in PKCS#1 format from the TPM using the pki tool

pki --pub --keyid 0x81010002 --outform pem > ak_rsa_pub.pem

The fingerprint of the RSA AK public key can be displayed with the command

pki --print --type pub --in ak_rsa_pub.pem
  pubkey:    RSA 2048 bits
  keyid:     71:21:f5:d4:7e:59:4a:88:16:ca:57:85:98:3d:36:a7:b1:d5:75:fa
  subjkey:   f4:9e:85:7d:de:4e:67:f5:fb:87:03:98:67:3f:20:7c:f3:3f:2b:66

Derive a Persistent ECC Endorsement Key

The following tpm2-tools command derives a 256 bit ECC Endorsement Key (EK) in a deterministic way from the secret Endorsement Primary Seed unique to each TPM device and makes the key persistent in the non-volatile memory of the TPM under the object handle 0x81010003:

tpm2_getpubek -H 0x81010003 -g 0x0023 -f ek_ecc.pub

The EK public key can be exported in PKCS#1 format from the TPM using the pki tool:

pki --pub --keyid 0x81010003 > ek_ecc_pub.der

The fingerprint of the ECC EK public key can be displayed with the command

pki --print --type pub --in ek_ecc_pub.der
  pubkey:    ECDSA 256 bits
  keyid:     7f:39:ca:e6:83:9b:a9:06:97:40:27:6a:e1:bf:8f:f5:9f:d3:a5:31
  subjkey:   8b:43:4d:5e:5e:7b:ff:c2:54:4d:ef:88:cb:0c:7c:47:75:28:4d:09

Generate a Persistent ECC Attestation Key

A 256 bit ECC Attestation Key (AK) bound to the EK with handle 0x81010003 can be created and made persistent under the handle 0x81010004 with the following tpm2-tools command

tpm2_getpubak -E 0x81010003 -g 0x0023 -D 0x000B -s 0x0018 -k 0x81010004 -f ak_ecc4.pub -n ak_ecc4.name

The AK public key can be exported in PKCS#1 format from the TPM using the pki tool

pki --pub --keyid 0x81010004 > ak_ecc_pub.der

The fingerprint of the ECC AK public key can be displayed with the command

pki --print --type pub --in ak_ecc_pub.der
  pubkey:    ECDSA 256 bits
  keyid:     71:49:7c:42:41:e7:c6:81:bc:31:73:f0:0f:7e:4a:e1:2d:53:00:38
  subjkey:   c7:0e:63:f8:7f:6f:f6:55:00:e5:05:7f:5a:3e:6b:6c:e7:d2:d5:13

Generate Another ECC Attestation Key

Multiple AK keys bound to a common EK key can be generated

tpm2_getpubak -E 0x81010003 -g 0x0023 -D 0x000B -s 0x0018 -k 0x81010005 -f ak_ecc5.pub -n ak_ecc5.name

The AK public key can be exported in PKCS#1 format from the TPM using the pki tool

pki --pub --keyid 0x81010005 > ak_ecc5_pub.der

The fingerprint of the second ECC AK public key can be displayed with the command

pki --print --type pub --in ak_ecc5_pub.der
  pubkey:    ECDSA 256 bits
  keyid:     c4:b4:9c:95:27:9e:ce:81:2f:98:42:c8:1b:f0:54:ff:d4:d1:24:34
  subjkey:   cf:44:f4:f7:9d:97:09:ad:b1:09:3a:8e:6f:23:eb:9f:2c:35:94:c9

Remove a Persistent Key Object

Since the non-volatile memory of the TPM is limited any persistent key object can be removed to free storage space.
The following tpm2-tools command removes the ECC AK key with persistent handle 0x81010005

tpm2_evictcontrol -A o -H 0x81010005 -S 0x81010005

List Persistent Objects

The following tpm2-tools command lists all persistent objects stored by the TPM in non-volatile memory

tpm2_listpersistent
6 persistent objects defined.

0. Persistent handle: 0x81000001
{
        Type: 0x23
        Hash algorithm(nameAlg): 0xb
        Attributes: 0x30072
}
1. Persistent handle: 0x81000002
{
        Type: 0x23
        Hash algorithm(nameAlg): 0xb
        Attributes: 0x60072
}
2. Persistent handle: 0x81010001
{
        Type: 0x1
        Hash algorithm(nameAlg): 0xb
        Attributes: 0x300b2
}
3. Persistent handle: 0x81010002
{
        Type: 0x1
        Hash algorithm(nameAlg): 0xb
        Attributes: 0x50072
}
4. Persistent handle: 0x81010003
{
        Type: 0x23
        Hash algorithm(nameAlg): 0xb
        Attributes: 0x300b2
}
5. Persistent handle: 0x81010004
{
        Type: 0x23
        Hash algorithm(nameAlg): 0xb
        Attributes: 0x50072
}

Create a Demo Root CA

The following pki command creates a 256 bit ECDSA private key for the Demo CA

pki --gen --type ecdsa --size 256 --outform pem > demoCaKey.pem

Next we create a self-signed Root CA certificate

pki --self --ca --type ecdsa --in demoCaKey.pem --dn="C=US, O=TNC Demo, CN=TNC Demo CA" --lifetime 3652 --outform pem > demoCaCert.pem

Issue an RSA AIK Certificate

Based on the RSA AK public key exported from the TPM, the following pki command generates an Attestation Identity Key (AIK) certificate signed by the Demo CA

pki --issue --cacert demoCaCert.pem --cakey demoCaKey.pem --type pub --in ak_rsa_pub.der --dn "C=US, O=TNC Demo, OU=AIK RSA, CN=raspi5.example.com" --san raspi5.example.com --lifetime 3651 > raspi5_ak_rsa_Cert.der

Issue an ECC AIK Certificate

Based on the ECC AK public key exported from the TPM, the following pki command generates an Attestation Identity Key (AIK) certificate signed by the Demo CA

pki --issue --cacert demoCaCert.pem --cakey demoCaKey.pem --type pub --in ak_ecc_pub.der --dn "C=US, O=TNC Demo, OU=AIK ECC, CN=raspi5.example.com" --san raspi5.example.com --lifetime 3651 > raspi5_ak_ecc_Cert.der

Many certification authorities issue certificates based on PKCS#10 certificate requests. This approach is also possible. First a certificate request is generated on the host the TPM resides on

 pki --req --keyid 0x81010004 --dn "C=US, O=TNC Demo, OU=AIK ECC, CN=raspi5.example.com" --san raspi5.example.com > ak_ecc_req.der

When you are prompted for a smartcard PIN just press <enter> since this TPM private key is not protected by a PIN. In a second step the CA issues the AIK certificate based on the PKCS#10 certificate request
pki --issue --cacert demoCaCert.pem --cakey demoCaKey.pem --type pkcs10 --in ak_ecc_req.der --lifetime 3651 > raspi5_ak_ecc_Cert.der

Store the ECC AIK Certificate in the NV RAM of the TPM

A TPM 2.0 has a certain amount of Non Volatile Random Access Memory (NV RAM) that can be used to store arbitrary data, e.g. the X.509 certificates matching the persistent keys. IF both the certificates and keys are persisted in the TPM then the system disk of the host can be reformatted at any time without loosing the machine or user credentials.As with smartcards the needed amount of memory must be reserved first so we check the size of the X.509 ECC certificate

ls -l raspi5_ak_ecc_Cert.der
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 449 Feb 17  2017 /etc/swanctl/x509/raspi5_ak_ecc_Cert.der

We then define a memory location with a size of 449 bytes that can be accessed via the handle 0x01800004 which is also called the NV index

tpm2_nvdefine -x 0x01800004 -a 0x40000001 -s 449 -t 0x2000A

Then we write the certificate file to the NV RAM destination

tpm2_nvwrite -x 0x01800004 -a 0x40000001 -f raspi5_ak_ecc_Cert.der

List of NV Indexes

A list of all defined NV indexes can be obtained with

tpm2_nvlist
2 NV indexes defined.

  0. NV Index: 0x1500015
  {
    Hash algorithm(nameAlg):4
     The Index attributes(attributes):0x44040004
     The size of the data area(dataSize):4
   }
  1. NV Index: 0x1800004
  {
    Hash algorithm(nameAlg):11
     The Index attributes(attributes):0x2002000a
     The size of the data area(dataSize):449
   }

Remove NV Index

The memory assigned to a given NV index can be released with the command

tpm2_nvrelease -x 0x01800001 -a 0x40000001

Configure TPM Private Key Access via VICI Interface

Configuration of TPM private key access as tokens in the secrets section of swanctl.conf

secrets {
    token_ak_rsa {
       handle = 81010002
       pin = 123456
    }
    token_ak_ecc {
       handle = 81010004
    }
}
Since the use of the RSA AK private key is password-protected, the PIN 123456 is added.

Define IPsec Connection with RSA AK Client Key

This connection configuration in swanctl.conf uses the RSA AK certificate for client authentication

connections {
   rsa {
      local_addrs  = 10.10.0.105
      remote_addrs = 10.10.0.104

      local {
         auth = pubkey 
         certs = raspi5_ak_rsa_Cert.der
      }
      remote {
         auth = pubkey 
         id = raspi4.example.com
      }
      children {
         rsa {
            mode = transport
            esp_proposals = aes128-sha256-curve25519
         }
      }
      version = 2
      proposals = aes128-sha256-curve25519
   }
}

Define IPsec Connection with ECC AK Client Key

This connection configuration in swanctl.conf references the ECC AK certificate used for client authentication via its handle, i.e. the NV index

connections {
   ecc {
      local_addrs  = 10.10.0.105
      remote_addrs = 10.10.0.104

      local {
         auth = pubkey
         cert-tpm {
            handle = 0x01800004
         }
      }
      remote {
         auth = pubkey
         id = raspi4.example.com
      }
      children {
         ecc {
            mode = transport
            esp_proposals = aes128-sha256-curve25519
         }
      }
      version = 2
      proposals = aes128-sha256-curve25519
   }
}
