MuthuvelKuppusamy · 2024-02-23T10:36:24Z

Confirm the following are included in your repo, checking each box:

completed README.md file with the necessary information
shim.efi to be signed
public portion of your certificate(s) embedded in shim (the file passed to VENDOR_CERT_FILE)
binaries, for which hashes are added to vendor_db ( if you use vendor_db and have hashes allow-listed )
any extra patches to shim via your own git tree or as files
any extra patches to grub via your own git tree or as files
build logs
a Dockerfile to reproduce the build of the provided shim EFI binaries

What is the link to your tag in a repo cloned from rhboot/shim-review?

https://github.com/MuthuvelKuppusamy/shim-review/releases/tag/opentext-shim-x64-ia32-20240417

What is the SHA256 hash of your final SHIM binary?

Thanks for review.
CRLF in the sbat file caused the sha256 different. Corrected the same and updated all required files and build.log

We switched to new certificate now for shim15.8 signing.

So, does your new chain of trust disallow booting old GRUB2 builds affected by the CVEs?

GRUB

SUSE grub with updated sbat is used OK
Used grub modules looks OK

GRUB 2.12 is used so all related CVEs are closed OK
SBAT looks OK:

MuthuvelKuppusamy · 2024-03-11T08:04:49Z

Below submitted shims are not released, as shim15.4 has some freeze during the boot and with 15.7, full stack NX not ready.

We moved to new certificate to address the "Boot Hole vulnerability fix for grub2".

ntfs is not included in the grub2 and older grub2 with sbat < 3 will be disallowed. We are safe with older grub2 binaries.

aronowski · 2024-04-09T16:23:56Z

Build reproduces, checksums match, characteristics seem alright.

The lack of commit eadb2f47a3ced5c64b23b90fd2a3463f63726066 "lockdown: also lock down previous kgdb use" has been justified - debugging is not enabled.

The lack of ephemeral keys has been justified due to it being discussed as part of review #393, which got accepted.

Questions:

The SBAT entries still reference MicroFocus, despite the fact that I can see the name changed as part of this application and the company website. Should the entries be preserved, or do you prefer to update them due to the name change?

If the latter, ping me and I'll re-review the parts that changed ASAP.

Notes:

I am a bit worried about the current GRUB2 module list the same way as during the last review, but the same one got approved, so I guess we can leave it as-is.

MuthuvelKuppusamy · 2024-04-16T05:47:13Z

We thought of maintaining the sbat only with version changes, Kindly let me know is it mandatory to update or else i can do it next submission.

I myself don't mind it staying the way it is now especially if it's about some compatibility-related scenarios. I'm just suggesting that if you do want to change the entries, you can do so now and have the updated application re-reviewed fairly quickly. I'm speaking on behalf of myself only. I don't know what Microsoft will think about this - it's up to you to make the decision.

Looks OK. Incorporate the change to the application, tag it appropriately, push the changes, update the tag in the Github issue's original post and I'll take another look at the application.
