![]() shim needs to verify that MokManager hasn't been modified, but we want to be able to support configurations where shim is shipped without a vendor certificate. This patch adds support for generating a certificate at build time, incorporating the public half into shim and signing MokManager with the private half. It uses pesign and nss, but still requires openssl for key generation. Anyone using sbsign will need to figure this out for themselves. |

TODO |
shim is a trivial EFI application that, when run, attempts to open and execute another application. It will initially attempt to do this via the standard EFI LoadImage() and StartImage() calls. If these fail (because secure boot is enabled and the binary is not signed with an appropriate key, for instance) it will then validate the binary against a built-in certificate. If this succeeds and if the binary or signing key are not blacklisted then shim will relocate and execute the binary. shim will also install a protocol which permits the second-stage bootloader to perform similar binary validation. This protocol has a GUID as described in the shim.h header file and provides a single entry point. On 64-bit systems this entry point expects to be called with SysV ABI rather than MSABI, and so calls to it should not be wrapped. To use shim, simply place a hex dump of the public certificate in cert.h and build it with make.
