[PATCH v3 1/2] ima: support calculating the boot aggregate based on non-SHA1 algorithms

From: Mimi Zohar
Date: Thu Jan 30 2020 - 11:23:12 EST


The boot aggregate is a cumulative SHA1 hash over TPM registers 0 - 7.
NIST has depreciated the usage of SHA1 in most instances. Instead of
continuing to use SHA1 to calculate the boot_aggregate, use the same
hash algorithm for reading the TPM PCRs as for calculating the boot
aggregate digest. Preference is given to the configured IMA default
hash algorithm.

Although the IMA measurement list boot_aggregate template data contains
the hash algorithm followed by the digest, allowing verifiers (e.g.
attesttaion servers) to calculate and verify the boot_aggregate, the
verifiers might not have the knowledge of what constitutes a good value
based on a different hash algorithm.
