Subject: [PATCH 1/3] ima: Define asymmetric_verify_v3() to verify IMA sigv3 signatures
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 16:39:27 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260324203929.2475782-2-zohar@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260324203929.2475782-1-zohar@linux.ibm.com>
Define asymmetric_verify_v3() to calculate the hash of the struct
ima_file_id, before calling asymmetric_verify() to verify the
signature.
Move and update the existing calc_file_id_hash() function with a
simpler, self contained version. In addition to the existing hash
data and hash data length arguments, also pass the hash algorithm.
