34 * QCryptoSecret:
36 * The QCryptoSecret object provides storage of secrets,
37 * which may be user passwords, encryption keys or any
38 * other kind of sensitive data that is represented as
39 * a sequence of bytes.
41 * The sensitive data associated with the secret can
42 * be provided directly via the 'data' property, or
43 * indirectly via the 'file' property. In the latter
44 * case there is support for file descriptor passing
45 * via the usual /dev/fdset/NN syntax that QEMU uses.
47 * The data for a secret can be provided in two formats,
48 * either as a UTF-8 string (the default), or as base64
49 * encoded 8-bit binary data. The latter is appropriate
50 * for raw encryption keys, while the former is appropriate
51 * for user entered passwords.
53 * The data may be optionally encrypted with AES-256-CBC,
54 * and the decryption key provided by another
55 * QCryptoSecret instance identified by the 'keyid'
56 * property. When passing sensitive data directly
57 * via the 'data' property it is strongly recommended
58 * to use the AES encryption facility to prevent the
59 * sensitive data being exposed in the process listing
60 * or system log files.
62 * Providing data directly, insecurely (suitable for
63 * ad hoc developer testing only)
65 * $QEMU -object secret,id=sec0,data=letmein
67 * Providing data indirectly:
69 * # printf "letmein" > password.txt
70 * # $QEMU \
71 * -object secret,id=sec0,file=password.txt
73 * Using a master encryption key with data.
75 * The master key needs to be created as 32 secure
76 * random bytes (optionally base64 encoded)
78 * # openssl rand -base64 32 > key.b64
79 * # KEY=$(base64 -d key.b64 | hexdump -v -e '/1 "%02X"')
81 * Each secret to be encrypted needs to have a random
82 * initialization vector generated. These do not need
83 * to be kept secret
85 * # openssl rand -base64 16 > iv.b64
86 * # IV=$(base64 -d iv.b64 | hexdump -v -e '/1 "%02X"')
88 * A secret to be defined can now be encrypted
90 * # SECRET=$(printf "letmein" |
91 * openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -a -K $KEY -iv $IV)
93 * When launching QEMU, create a master secret pointing
94 * to key.b64 and specify that to be used to decrypt
95 * the user password
97 * # $QEMU \
98 * -object secret,id=secmaster0,format=base64,file=key.b64 \
99 * -object secret,id=sec0,keyid=secmaster0,format=base64,\
100 * data=$SECRET,iv=$(<iv.b64)
102 * When encrypting, the data can still be provided via an
103 * external file, in which case it is possible to use either
104 * raw binary data, or base64 encoded. This example uses
105 * raw format
107 * # printf "letmein" |
108 * openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -K $KEY -iv $IV -o pw.aes
109 * # $QEMU \
110 * -object secret,id=secmaster0,format=base64,file=key.b64 \
111 * -object secret,id=sec0,keyid=secmaster0,\
112 * file=pw.aes,iv=$(<iv.b64)
114 * Note that the ciphertext can be in either raw or base64
115 * format, as indicated by the 'format' parameter, but the
116 * plaintext resulting from decryption is expected to always
117 * be in raw format.
