Hi,
Cosign looks interesting but does not seem to feature the nice
verification integration podman offers with the build in signing
support. So it does not seem to protect from unsigned images if I simply
invoke podman run, which was the nice part of the existing solution.
Our requirements actually changed a bit. First of all we need a sha512
for the container as sha256 is not considered safe enough. Secondly we
need the signing to happen with a specific algorithm. Actually we want
to sign the image with multiple algorithms in parallel.
So I maybe the best solution would be to somehow provide a plug point
for the verification (the defect also seems to suggest something like
that in the last update). The code could be invoked after the image was
pulled into the local registry and then a handle to image is passed. The
plugin could now either take the existing hash for the image or
calculate a new one, verify the signature in what ever way required and
then return the verification result. Cosign could be integrating in that
way as well and would now be able to prevent podman from starting
illegal images. Just not sure how such a plugin integration might work.
regards,
Hendrik

Hendrik/All,
I'm reviving this thread because we are taking a look at a cool
new project called Cosign [1][2][3]. He briefly mentioned that he has
a roadmap to handle key storing devices like Yubikeys and I thought
about this email thread (yes, my memory is strange like that). With a
little searching I found it and decided to revive it. I'm also
tracking a RHEL feature which could potentially implement this.
I'd love feedback from the people on this thread. Many of you seem to
have very crisp use cases around keys, know podman, and have strong
opinions (which is good). Product Managers love feedback from the
community :-) Thoughts?
Also feel free to continue discussion in the GitHub issue [4].

Hendrik,
Thank you for capturing this. We really appreciate it. I've added
it to our backlog to discuss at our next planning meeting. I also
tagged Mitr (security ninja) in to take a look.
Best Regards
