[edk2-devel] [PATCH] OvmfPkg/AmdSev: Erase secret area content on ExitBootServices
Posted by Dov Murik 2 years, 5 months ago
The confidential computing secrets area is marked as EfiBootServicesData
region, which means it is released for the OS use when the OS EFI stub
calls ExitBootServices.  However, its content is not erased, and
therefore the OS might unintentionally reuse this sensitive memory area
and expose the injected secrets.

Erase the content of the secret area on ExitBootServices so that the
memory released to the OS contains zeros.  If the OS needs to keep the
secrets for its own use, it must copy the secrets area to another memory
area before calling ExitBootServices (for example in efi/libstub in
Linux).

Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH] OvmfPkg/AmdSev: Erase secret area content on ExitBootServices
Posted by Dov Murik 2 years, 5 months ago
Please don't merge this.  We're going in a different direction, see
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/83853 .  Instead of letting the
guest kernel copy the secret content and OVMF will erase the original
(the patch below), we mark the area as "reserved" (in OVMF) and then the
OS doesn't need to copy it around.  This is also similar to the approach
taken in the SNP patches for the SNP-Secrets and SNP-CPUID pages.

Added bonus is that it's less code both in OVMF and in kernel's efi and
efi/libstub.

Thanks,
-Dov
