scripts This initial commit updates the location of the vendor-table.json which is used by the ACA and the eventlog tool. The previous change moved the vendor-table.json to a separate folder, however the code was not updated to reflect the change. This instead updates how the two install handle the file. The ACA was updated not to clobber the file if it exists and the eventlog tool was updated to do the same through an additional script called post install. 2021-11-09 08:32:04 -05:00

To support the PC Client RIM Specification which utilizes the TPM Event Log as a Support RIM type , it was useful to have a tool for inspecting the contents of the TPM event log. A Linux command line tool named "elt" (event log tool) has been created to parse and print human readable output, provide hexidecimal events which can be used as test patterns, and to compare event logs for providing details on what events miscompared.

Note that a TCG Event Log will only be populated on a given device if the device:

  1. Utilizes TCG compliant UEFI Firmware.
  2. Has a TPM 1.2 or 2.0 that has been activated prior to the current boot.
  3. Has a TCG aware OS (Most flavors of Linux and Windows 10).

The default locations for the TCG Event Log are:

  • Windows: C:\Windows\Logs\MeasuredBoot\
  • Linux: /sys/kernel/security/tpm0/ with a default name of "binary_bios_measurements"

Building

Linux

To build this tool navigate to the tcg_eventlog-tool directory and use the following command:

./gradlew clean build

Windows 10

Several options exist for building on Windows 10:

  1. Windows command shell (CMD.exe):
    • Navigate to the tcg_eventlog_tool folder and run the widows gradle wrapper:

    gradlew.bat clean build

  2. Windows powershell with Windows Subsystem for Linux enabled.
    • Navigate to the tcg_eventlog_tool folder and run the Linux gradle wrapper:

    ./gradlew clean build

In both cases the tcg_eventlog_tool-X.X.jar file should have been placed in the build\libs\tools\ (Windows) or build/libs/tools/ (Linux) folder.

Packaging

Currenty only a install file for Linux RPM is supported.

To create an RPM on a linux device use the following command in the same directory:

./gradlew buildRPM

Installing

Currenty only a install package for Linux is supported.

To install this tool use the following commmand from the same directory:

sudo yum localinstall build/distributions/tcg_eventlog_tool*.rpm

Usage

Linux

The tcg_eventlog_tool installation package provides an elt command. The elt command has various command line options to view all event , specific events, or to display expected PCRs.

Current options for the tool can be found using the -h option:

elt -h

With No FILE the default event log path (e.g. /sys/kernel/security/tpm0/binary_bios_measurements on Linux) is used. Note admin privileges are required for accessing the default path in Linux.

All OPTIONS must be separated by a space delimiter, no concatenation of OPTIONS is currently supported.

An example output for the tcg_eventlog_tool filtering on event 1 would be:

elt -f ~/TpmLog.bin -e 1

Windows

Currently there is not a install package for the tcg_eventlog_tool for windows. it can be invoked usinng java:

To run the tcg_eventlog_tool from the a command shell:

navigate to the tcg_eventlog_tool folder invoke using java -jar option to the tcg_eventlog_tool jar file with options:

java -jar build\libs\tools\tcg_eventlog_tool-1.0.jar -h

another example:

java -jar build\libs\tools\tcg_eventlog_tool-1.0.jar -f C:\Windows\Logs\MeasuredBoot\0000000059-0000000000.log -e
