6.5. Sprawdzanie Autentyczności Pakietów

Dla administratorów Falcot Corp bezpieczeństwo jest bardzo ważne. Zgodnie z tym założeniem, muszą być pewni, że instalują tylko pakiety, których pochodzenie od Debiana jest gwarantowane, które nie były zmieniane przez osoby trzecie. Włamywacz komputerowy mógłby bowiem próbować dodać szkodliwy kod do wiarygodnego pakietu. Po zainstalowaniu, taki pakiet mógłby robić cokolwiek, do czego włamywacz go zaprojektował, włączając w to na przykład kradzież haseł lub poufnych informacji. W celu przeciwdziałania takim zagrożeniom, Debian stosuje pieczęci zabezpieczające, aby zagwarantować — w czasie instalacji — że pakiet naprawdę pochodzi od jego opiekuna i nie był modyfikowany przez osoby trzecie.

The seal works with a chain of cryptographical hashes and a signature. The signed file is the Release file, provided by the Debian mirrors. It contains a list of the Packages files (including their compressed forms, Packages.gz and Packages.xz, and the incremental versions), along with their MD5, SHA1 and SHA256 hashes, which ensures that the files haven't been tampered with. These Packages files contain a list of the Debian packages available on the mirror, along with their hashes, which ensures in turn that the contents of the packages themselves haven't been altered either.

APT needs a set of trusted GnuPG public keys to verify signatures in the Release.gpg files available on the mirrors. It gets them from files in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ and from the /etc/apt/trusted.gpg keyring (managed by the apt-key command). The official Debian keys are provided and kept up-to-date by the debian-archive-keyring package which puts them in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/. Note however that the first installation of this particular package requires caution: even if the package is signed like any other, the signature cannot be verified externally. Cautious administrators should therefore check the fingerprints of imported keys before trusting them to install new packages:

W PRAKTYCE Dodawanie zaufanych kluczy

When a third-party package source is added to the sources.list file, APT needs to be told to trust the corresponding GPG authentication key (otherwise it will keep complaining that it can't ensure the authenticity of the packages coming from that repository). The first step is of course to get the public key. More often than not, the key will be provided as a small text file, which we will call key.asc in the following examples.

To add the key to the trusted keyring, the administrator can just put it in a *.asc file in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/. This is supported since Debian Stretch. With older releases, you had to run apt-key add < key.asc.

Dla tych, którzy potrzebowaliby osobnej aplikacji i więcej szczegółów na temat zaufanych kluczy istnieje możliwość użycia gui-apt-key (z pakietu o tej samej nazwie), minimalistycznego graficznego interfejsu do zarządzania bazą zaufanych kluczy.

Kiedy już odpowiednie klucze znajdą się w bazie, APT będzie sprawdzał ich podpisy przed każdą ryzykowną operacją, dzięki temu interfejsy wyświetlą ostrzeżenie w przypadku gdy zażądano instalacji pakietu, którego wiarygodność nie może zostać ustalona.
