LoadPin is a Linux Security Module that ensures all kernel-loaded files
|
||
|
(modules, firmware, etc) all originate from the same filesystem, with
|
||
|
the expectation that such a filesystem is backed by a read-only device
|
||
|
such as dm-verity or CDROM. This allows systems that have a verified
|
||
|
and/or unchangeable filesystem to enforce module and firmware loading
|
||
|
restrictions without needing to sign the files individually.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The LSM is selectable at build-time with CONFIG_SECURITY_LOADPIN, and
|
||
|
can be controlled at boot-time with the kernel command line option
|
||
|
"loadpin.enabled". By default, it is enabled, but can be disabled at
|
||
|
boot ("loadpin.enabled=0").
|
||
|
|
||
|
LoadPin starts pinning when it sees the first file loaded. If the
|
||
|
block device backing the filesystem is not read-only, a sysctl is
|
||
|
created to toggle pinning: /proc/sys/kernel/loadpin/enabled. (Having
|
||
|
a mutable filesystem means pinning is mutable too, but having the
|
||
|
sysctl allows for easy testing on systems with a mutable filesystem.)
