TPM based Google Cloud Credential Access Token
Implementations of TokenSource for use with Google Cloud where the private key is encoded into a TPM.
-
TPM:
access_token
or anid_token
for a serviceAccount where the private key is saved inside a Trusted Platform Module (TPM)TPM based key --> GCP AccessToken | GCP id_token
NOTE: This is NOT supported by Google
basic usage:
package main
import (
"cloud.google.com/go/storage"
"github.com/google/go-tpm/tpm2"
"github.com/google/go-tpm/tpmutil"
sal "github.com/salrashid123/oauth2/v3"
)
func main() {
rwc, err := tpmutil.OpenTPM("/dev/tpmrm0")
ts, err := sal.TpmTokenSource(&sal.TpmTokenConfig{
TPMDevice: rwc,
Handle: tpm2.TPMHandle(*persistentHandle), // persistent handle
Email: *serviceAccountEmail,
})
tok, err := ts.Token()
log.Printf("Token: %v", tok.AccessToken)
ctx := context.Background()
storageClient, err := storage.NewClient(ctx, option.WithTokenSource(ts))
sit := storageClient.Buckets(ctx, *projectId)
for {
battrs, err := sit.Next()
if err == iterator.Done {
break
}
log.Printf(battrs.Name)
}
}

Usage TpmTokenSource
This library provides the option of returning three different types of tokens:
JWTAccessToken with scopes
(default) orOauth2 AccessTokens
orOIDC Tokens (id_tokens)
Both JWT and Oauth2 tokens will work with GCP apis and its preferable to use the jwt access token since it does not involve a round trip to GCP services. For more information, see
You can enable the oauth2 flow by setting the UseOauthToken
config value to true
Base Options
TPMDevice io.ReadWriteCloser // ReadCloser to the TPM
Email string // ServiceAccount Email
Handle tpm2.TPMHandle // TPM ObjectHandle
AuthSession tpmjwt.Session // TPM Session handle for Password or PCR auth
KeyId string // The service accounts key_id value
Scopes []string // list of scopes to use
UseOauthToken bool // enables oauth2 token (default: false)
IdentityToken bool // get id_token instead of access_token (default false)
Audience string // audience (required if IdToken is true)
EncryptionHandle tpm2.TPMHandle // (optional) handle to use for transit encryption
Usage
-
Create a VM with a
TPM
.For example, create an Google Cloud Shielded VM.
From there you have several options on how to associate a key on a TPM with a service account. You can either do
- [A] download a Google ServiceAccount's
json
file and embed the private part to the TPM
or
- [B] Generate a Key ON THE TPM and then import the public part to GCP.
or
- [C]) remote seal the service accounts RSA Private key remotely, encrypt it with the remote TPM's Endorsement Key and load it
[A] Import Service Account json to TPM:
-
Download Service account json file
-
Extract public/private keypair
cat svc-account.json | jq -r '.private_key' > /tmp/f.json
openssl rsa -out /tmp/key_rsa.pem -traditional -in /tmp/f.json
openssl rsa -in /tmp/key_rsa.pem -outform PEM -pubout -out public.pem
-
Embed the key into a TPM
There are several ways to do this: either install and use
tpm2_tools
or usego-tpm
.The following will load the RSA key and make it persistent at a specific handle and create a PEM encoded private key thats only usable by the TPM.
If you choose to use
tpm2_tools
, first install TPM2-ToolsThen setup a primary object on the TPM and import
private.pem
we created earlier
## if you want to use a software TPM,
# rm -rf /tmp/myvtpm && mkdir /tmp/myvtpm
# sudo swtpm socket --tpmstate dir=/tmp/myvtpm --tpm2 --server type=tcp,port=2321 --ctrl type=tcp,port=2322 --flags not-need-init,startup-clear
## then specify "127.0.0.1:2321" as the TPM device path in the examples, export the following var
# export TPM2TOOLS_TCTI="swtpm:port=2321"
## note the primary can be the "H2" profile from https://www.hansenpartnership.com/draft-bottomley-tpm2-keys.html#name-parent
## see https://gist.github.com/salrashid123/9822b151ebb66f4083c5f71fd4cdbe40
### otherwise with defaults
#tpm2_createprimary -C o -g sha256 -G rsa -c primary.ctx
printf '\x00\x00' > unique.dat
tpm2_createprimary -C o -G ecc -g sha256 -c primary.ctx -a "fixedtpm|fixedparent|sensitivedataorigin|userwithauth|noda|restricted|decrypt" -u unique.dat
# tpm2_createprimary -C o -G ecc -g sha256 -c primary.ctx -a "fixedtpm|fixedparent|sensitivedataorigin|userwithauth|noda|restricted|decrypt"
tpm2_import -C primary.ctx -G rsa2048:rsassa:null -g sha256 -i /tmp/key_rsa.pem -u key.pub -r key.prv
tpm2_load -C primary.ctx -u key.pub -r key.prv -c key.ctx
## to make persistent
# tpm2_evictcontrol -C o -c key.ctx 0x81010002
## to create a PEM file
tpm2_encodeobject -C primary.ctx -u key.pub -r key.prv -o svc_account_tpm.pem
The encodeobject create a PEM file with the public/private TPM parts encoded into it. The PEM file looks like this
$ cat svc_account_tpm.pem

[B] Generate key on TPM and export public X509 certificate to GCP
- Generate Key on TPM and make it persistent
The following uses tpm2_tools
but is pretty straightfoward to do the same steps using go-tpm
## create an H2 primary
printf '\x00\x00' > unique.dat
tpm2_createprimary -C o -G ecc -g sha256 \
-c primary.ctx -a "fixedtpm|fixedparent|sensitivedataorigin|userwithauth|noda|restricted|decrypt" -u unique.dat
## create an rsa key, then load and evit it
tpm2_create -G rsa2048:rsassa:null -g sha256 -u key.pub -r key.priv -C primary.ctx
tpm2_load -C primary.ctx -u key.pub -r key.priv -c key.ctx
# tpm2_evictcontrol -C o -c key.ctx 0x81010002
### extract the publicKey PEM
tpm2_readpublic -c key.ctx -f PEM -o svc_account_tpm_pub.pem
tpm2_flushcontext -t && tpm2_flushcontext -s && tpm2_flushcontext -l
## convert the entire TPM public/private key to PEM
## you may need to add a -p if your tpm2 tools is not recent (see https://github.com/tpm2-software/tpm2-tools/issues/3458)
tpm2_encodeobject -C primary.ctx -u key.pub -r key.priv -o svc_account_tpm.pem
if you want to use openssl
to issue a key:
## make sure openssl provider is installed
openssl list -provider tpm2 -provider default --providers
## generate an RSA key
openssl genpkey -provider tpm2 -algorithm RSA -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:2048 \
-pkeyopt rsa_keygen_pubexp:65537 -out svc_account_tpm.pem
## extract the public key
openssl rsa -provider tpm2 -provider default -in svc_account_tpm.pem -pubout > svc_account_tpm_pem.pub
- use the TPM based private key to create an
x509
certificate
Google Cloud uses the x509
format of a key to import. Note that GCP does not even verify the CA of the x509 you use to upload, you can even just self-sign the the x509.
So far all we've created ins a private RSA key on the TPM so we need to use it to generate a CSR and then have it signed some CA.
For this step, you can either
- Isseue
CSR
which any CA can sign
openssl req -provider tpm2 -provider default -new -key svc_account_tpm.pem -out svc_account_tpm.csr
- Issue Self-Signed certificate
openssl req -provider tpm2 -provider default -new -x509 -key svc_account_tpm.pem -out ssvc_account_tpm.crt -days 365
force
the public key
Its extremely rare to do this but if you have a CA and the public key for the TPM based service account, you can issue an x509 without a CSR by using -force_pubkey
openssl x509 -new -CAkey root-ca.key -CA root-ca.crt \
-force_pubkey svc_account_tpm_pub.pem \
-subj "/CN=my svc account Certificate" -out svc_account_tpm.crt
note you can do all these step using go-tpm
- Import
x509
cert to GCP for a given service account (noteYOUR_SERVICE_ACCOUNT@$PROJECT_ID.iam.gserviceaccount.com
must exist prior to this step)
The following steps are outlined here.
gcloud iam service-accounts keys upload cert.pem --iam-account YOUR_SERVICE_ACCOUNT@$PROJECT_ID.iam.gserviceaccount.com
Verify...you should see a new certificate. Note down the KEY_ID
$ gcloud iam service-accounts keys list --iam-account=YOUR_SERVICE_ACCOUNT@$PROJECT_ID.iam.gserviceaccount.com
KEY_ID CREATED_AT EXPIRES_AT

[C] Remotely transferring an encrypted RSA key into the TPM
If you already have a list of EKCerts
you know for sure trust and want to distribute keys to, then its pretty easy: just use tpm2_duplicate) with either tpm2_tools
or go-tpm
for detailed walkthrough of that, see
-
tpmcopy: Transfer RSA|ECC|AES|HMAC key to a remote Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
-
https://github.com/tpm2-software/tpm2-tools/wiki/Duplicating-Objects
Post Step [A] [B] or [C]
access_token
-
Use
TpmTokenSource
After the key is embedded, you can DELETE any reference to
private.pem
(the now exists protected by the TPM and any access policy you may want to setup).The TPM based
TokenSource
can now be used to access a GCP resource using either a plain HTTPClient or native GCP library (google-cloud-pubsub
)!!
cd example/tpm/
go run no_policy/main.go --projectId=core-eso \
--persistentHandle=0x81010002 \
--serviceAccountEmail="[email protected]" \
--bucketName=core-eso-bucket --keyId=71b831d149e4667809644840cda2e7e0080035d5
eg
// open the tpm
rwc, err := OpenTPM(*tpmPath)
// use it to get a tokensource
ts, err := sal.TpmTokenSource(&sal.TpmTokenConfig{
TPMDevice: rwc,
Handle: tpm2.TPMHandle(*persistentHandle), // persistent handle
Email: *serviceAccountEmail,
})
// use it with a gcp api client
storageClient, err := storage.NewClient(ctx, option.WithTokenSource(ts))
id_token
If you wanted an id_token
:
// open the tpm
rwc, err := OpenTPM(*tpmPath)
its, err := sal.TpmTokenSource(&sal.TpmTokenConfig{
TPMDevice: rwc,
Handle: tpm2.TPMHandle(*persistentHandle), // persistent handle
Email: *serviceAccountEmail,
IdentityToken: true,
Audience: "https://foo.bar",
})
itok, err := its.Token()
log.Printf("Identity Token: %v", itok.AccessToken)
Session Encryption
If you want to enable TPM Session Encryption, see here. You will need to modify example/tpm/main.go
to acquire the Endorsement keys and the supply them after validation as following parameters to TpmTokenConfig
EncryptionHandle tpm2.TPMHandle // (optional) handle to use for transit encryption
EncryptionPub *tpm2.TPMTPublic // (optional) public key to use for transit encryption
