Hello, currently I'm trying to enforce rpm signature verification on the target device and get weird bogus signature of the RPM packages when the signature is not enabled in the configuration. The main issue that this signature is considered as valid by the RPM 5.4.14 which is used by Yocto. And thus it is "correctly" installed by "smart" packaging system on the target. For example here 2 packages built w/o signing. Both packages have different keys and RPM is not complaining: >tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/rpm -Kv ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/os-release-1.0-r0.all.rpm ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/tzdata-2016a-r0.all.rpm ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/os-release-1.0-r0.all.rpm: Header V4 DSA signature: OK, key ID bd8f688a Header SHA1 digest: OK (45dfa7cbfe3cfc3a6c4a928e58b100d81f5a367d) MD5 digest: OK (a8450299f5c2d9adecc4bda799b7038d) ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/tzdata-2016a-r0.all.rpm: Header V4 DSA signature: OK, key ID bc6abdd3 Header SHA1 digest: OK (e95dc6b40965224ae443460117fe2ada4f855b2d) MD5 digest: OK (1dda4ae1673ab96dd9edbdc423df29ac) Nevertheless the host RPM(rpm4 from ubuntu) is correctly identifying that the signature is invalid: >rpm -Kv ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/os-release-1.0-r0.all.rpm ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/tzdata-2016a-r0.all.rpm ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/os-release-1.0-r0.all.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID bd8f688a: NOKEY Header SHA1 digest: OK (45dfa7cbfe3cfc3a6c4a928e58b100d81f5a367d) MD5 digest: OK (a8450299f5c2d9adecc4bda799b7038d) ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/tzdata-2016a-r0.all.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID bc6abdd3: NOKEY Header SHA1 digest: OK (e95dc6b40965224ae443460117fe2ada4f855b2d) MD5 digest: OK (1dda4ae1673ab96dd9edbdc423df29ac) Following is an output of properly signed packages. You may see that the keys are valid(you can also check the pub key on MIT key storage): rpm -Kv ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/os-release-1.0-r0.all.rpm ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/tzdata-2016a-r0.all.rpm ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/os-release-1.0-r0.all.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 5a906f4c: OK Header SHA1 digest: OK (e82b83bc3a4713d36548a3ea6b7c0d3c3dc35f1f) MD5 digest: OK (e9bfa1fc6a4ae90e84851bfd4583ec29) ./tmp/deploy/rpm/all/tzdata-2016a-r0.all.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 5a906f4c: OK Header SHA1 digest: OK (d6925400698be829e08bc5013fd28d2c829a2600) MD5 digest: OK (427f42d79b83e314f741ff73a672c5dc) Host RPM version >rpm --version RPM version 4.11.2 Yocto RPM version >tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/rpm --version rpm (RPM) 5.4.14 Yocto version: jethro (1a52eceaa5df89914b6a711defdcf0046e74c7f6) Best regards, Dimitri
