NAME

tss2_verifyquote(1) -

SYNOPSIS

tss2_verifyquote [OPTIONS]

common fapi references

DESCRIPTION

tss2_verifyquote(1) - This command verifies that the data returned by a quote is valid. This includes

  • Reconstructing the quoteInfo's PCR values from the eventLog (if an eventLog was provided)
  • Verifying the quoteInfo using the signature and the publicKeyPath

The used signature verification scheme is specified in the cryptographic profile (cf., fapi-profile(5)).

An application using tss2_verifyquote() will further have to

  • Assess the publicKey's trustworthiness
  • Assess the eventLog entries' trustworthiness

OPTIONS

These are the available options:

  • -Q, --qualifyingData=FILENAME or - (for stdin):

    A nonce provided by the caller to ensure freshness of the signature. Optional parameter.

  • -l, --pcrLog=FILENAME or - (for stdin):

    Returns the PCR event log for the chosen PCR. Optional parameter.

    PCR event logs are a list (arbitrary length JSON array) of log entries with the following content.

    - recnum: Unique record number
    - pcr: PCR index
    - digest: The digests
    - type: The type of event. At the moment the only possible value is: "LINUX_IMA" (legacy IMA)
    - eventDigest: Digest of the event; e.g. the digest of the measured file
    - eventName: Name of the event; e.g. the name of the measured file.
    
  • -q, --quoteInfo=FILENAME or - (for stdin):

    The JSON-encoded structure holding the inputs to the quote operation. This includes the digest value and PCR values.

  • -k, --publicKeyPath=STRING:

    Identifies the signing key. MAY be a path to the public key hierarchy /ext.

  • -i, --signature=FILENAME or - (for stdin):

    The signature over the quoted material.
