Cryptotronix Hashlet

Build Status Coverity Scan Build Status

Getting

The easiest way to install hashlet right now is to add my debian repository and then just:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install hashlet

However, I've only packaged the binary for ARMv7. If you want to help package a binary for another system, I'd appreciate the help!

The second easiest way to install the software is to download the latest release and then:

./configure && make
sudo make install

If you want to hack on hashlet, read more about building below.

Building

This project uses Autotools and you need that installed to configure and build the executable. I am mainly developing on a BeagleBone Black using Debian.

If you pull this repo (i.e. a non-release), you will need the following dependencies:

  • autotools (i.e. automake, autconf, and libtool)
  • Flex and Bison
  • texinfo (for the documentation if you so desire)

The run time dependencies are:

  • libgcrypt

Hardware

The hardware was available from Cryptotronix. We are an open hardware company, so see the hardware folder for the design to make this yourself. However, this software should work on any board that has an ATSHA204 in the I2C variety.

Running

see ./hashlet --help for full details. The default I2C bus is /dev/i2c-1 and this can be changed with the -b option. On some BBB, the bus is /dev/i2c-2. See this blog post for further details on BBB I2C.

Root

You'll need to run as root to access /dev/i2c* initially. You can change this by adding your user to the i2c group with:

sudo usermod -aG i2c user

Or:

sudo chmod o+rw /dev/i2c*

Currently supported commands:

state

./hashlet state
Factory

This is the first command you should run and verify it's in the Factory state. This provides the assurance that the device has not been tampered during transit.

personalize

./hashlet personalize

With the key import feature:

./hashlet personalize -f keys.txt

This is the second command you should run. On success it will not output anything. Random keys are loaded into the device and saved to ~/.hashlet as a backup. Don't lose that file. Keys from another hashlet can be imported with the -f option, where the file is not also named ~/.hashlet.

random

./hashlet random
62F95589AC76855A8F9204C9C6B8B85F06E6477D17C3888266AEE8E1CBD65319

This command also takes the -B parameter which allows you to specify the number of bytes you want back from the random number generator.

mac

./hashlet mac --file test.txt
mac       : C3466ABB8640B50938B260E17D86489D0EBB3F9C8009024683CB225FFFD3B4E4
challenge : 9F0751C90770E6B40E34BA8E06EFE453FAA46B5FB26925FFBD664FAF951D000A
meta      : 08000000000000000000000000

On success it will output three parameters:

  1. mac: (aka challenge response) The result of the operation
  2. challenge: This is the input to the Hashlet, after a SHA256 digest
  3. meta: Meta data that must accompany the result

check-mac

./hashlet check-mac -r C3466ABB8640B50938B260E17D86489D0EBB3F9C8009024683CB225FFFD3B4E4 -c 9F0751C90770E6B40E34BA8E06EFE453FAA46B5FB26925FFBD664FAF951D000A -m 08000000000000000000000000

Checks the MAC that was produced by the Hashlet. On success, it will with an exit value of 0.

offline-verify

./hashlet offline-verify -c 322B3FFC3BE16B4CC5B445F8E666D0BA5C5E676D00FABD2308AD51243FA0B067 -r FB19B1C63161B6C34CA9D291D1CD16F98247BBA9A298775F795161BEB95BB6EF

On success, it will output an exit code of 0, otherwise it will fail. The point of this command is that a remote server can verify the MAC from the Hashlet without a device. The keys are written to ~/.hashlet upon personalization and if this file is store on the server, it can verify a MAC.

The workflow goes like this:

  1. Mac some data to produce a challenge response.
  2. Send the challenge and MAC to the remote server, which has the key store file.
  3. Perform offline-verify on the remote server.

hmac

hashlet hmac -f ChangeLog
CD0765AB1F94698E0EACDE22C10F362E925F4F4017B75FDE5AB3124FCEBE9754
echo test | ./hashlet hmac
9CAF53A19F4A8D751F9D03ED3991EF648DC9246D2B329D9A650307212D994326

Performs HMAC-256. Your input data is combined with data on the device, so this isn't a pure HMAC-256. Your data will be applied to SHA-256 and then combined, per the datasheet, with device data. That result is fed into HMAC-256.

offline-hmac

hashlet offline-hmac -r CD0765AB1F94698E0EACDE22C10F362E925F4F4017B75FDE5AB3124FCEBE9754 -f ChangeLog
echo $?
0
echo test | ./hashlet offline-hmac -r 9CAF53A19F4A8D751F9D03ED3991EF648DC9246D2B329D9A650307212D994326
echo $?
0

Similar to offline-verify, verifies the hmac operation using the key file from ~/.hashlet.

serial-num

./hashlet serial-num
0123XXXXXXXXXXXXEE

X's indicate the unique serial number.

Options

Options are listed in the --help command, but a useful one, if there are issues, is the -v option. This will dump all the data that travels across the I2C bus with the device.

Design

In the hardware folder, one should find the design files for the Hashlet. The IC on the hashlet is the Atmel ATSHA204.
