This is a guide to using [YubiKey](https://www.yubico.com/products/yubikey-hardware/) as a [SmartCard](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/38924/how-does-storing-gpg-ssh-private-keys-on-smart-cards-compare-to-plain-usb-drives) for storing GPG encryption, signing and authentication keys, which can also be used for SSH. Many of the principles in this document are applicable to other smart card devices. Keys stored on YubiKey are non-exportable (as opposed to file-based keys that are stored on disk) and are convenient for everyday use. Instead of having to remember and enter passphrases to unlock SSH/GPG keys, YubiKey needs only a physical touch after being unlocked with a PIN code. All signing and encryption operations happen on the card, rather than in OS memory. **New!** [drduh/Purse](https://github.com/drduh/Purse) is a password manager which uses GPG and YubiKey. If you have a comment or suggestion, please open an [Issue](https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide/issues) on GitHub. - [Purchase YubiKey](#purchase-yubikey) - [Verify YubiKey](#verify-yubikey) - [Download OS image](#download-os-image) - [Required software](#required-software) * [Entropy](#entropy) - [Creating keys](#creating-keys) - [Master key](#master-key) - [Sub-keys](#sub-keys) * [Signing](#signing) * [Encryption](#encryption) * [Authentication](#authentication) - [Verify](#verify) - [Export](#export) - [Backup](#backup) - [Configure Smartcard](#configure-smartcard) * [Change PIN](#change-pin) * [Set information](#set-information) - [Transfer keys](#transfer-keys) * [Signing](#signing-1) * [Encryption](#encryption-1) * [Authentication](#authentication-1) - [Verify card](#verify-card) - [Cleanup](#cleanup) - [Using keys](#using-keys) - [Rotating keys](#rotating-keys) - [SSH](#ssh) * [Create configuration](#create-configuration) * [Replace agents](#replace-agents) * [Copy public key](#copy-public-key) * [(Optional) Save public key for identity file configuration](#-optional--save-public-key-for-identity-file-configuration) * [Connect with public key authentication](#connect-with-public-key-authentication) * [Import SSH keys](#import-ssh-keys) * [Remote Machines (agent forwarding)](#remote-machines--agent-forwarding-) * [GitHub](#github) * [OpenBSD](#openbsd) * [Windows](#windows) + [WSL](#wsl) - [Prerequisites](#prerequisites) - [WSL configuration](#wsl-configuration) - [Remote host configuration](#remote-host-configuration) - [Multiple Keys](#multiple-keys) - [Require touch](#require-touch) - [Email](#email) - [Reset](#reset) - [Notes](#notes) - [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting) - [Links](#links) # Purchase YubiKey All YubiKeys except the blue "security key" model are compatible with this guide. NEO models are limited to 2048-bit RSA keys. Compare YubiKeys [here](https://www.yubico.com/products/yubikey-hardware/compare-products-series/). You will also need several small storage devices for booting a temporary operating system and creating backups of private/public keys. # Verify YubiKey To verify a YubiKey is genuine, open a [browser with U2F support](https://support.yubico.com/support/solutions/articles/15000009591-how-to-confirm-your-yubico-device-is-genuine-with-u2f) to [https://www.yubico.com/genuine/](https://www.yubico.com/genuine/). Insert a Yubico device, and select *Verify Device* to begin the process. Touch the YubiKey when prompted, and if asked, allow it to see the make and model of the device. If you see *Verification complete*, the device is authentic. This website verifies the YubiKey's device attestation certificates signed by a set of Yubico CAs, and helps mitigate [supply chain attacks](https://media.defcon.org/DEF%20CON%2025/DEF%20CON%2025%20presentations/DEF%20CON%2025%20-%20r00killah-and-securelyfitz-Secure-Tokin-and-Doobiekeys.pdf). # Download OS Image It is recommended to generate cryptographic keys and configure YubiKey from a secure operating system and using an ephemeral environment ("live image"), such as [Debian](https://www.debian.org/CD/live/), [Tails](https://tails.boum.org/index.en.html), or [OpenBSD](https://www.openbsd.org/) booted from a USB drive. To use Debian, download the latest image: ```console $ curl -LfO https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/debian-live-10.0.0-amd64-xfce.iso $ curl -LfO https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/SHA512SUMS $ curl -LfO https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/SHA512SUMS.sign ``` Verify file integrity with GPG: ```console $ gpg --verify SHA512SUMS.sign SHA512SUMS gpg: Signature made Sat Jul 6 18:51:32 2019 PDT gpg: using RSA key DF9B9C49EAA9298432589D76DA87E80D6294BE9B gpg: Can't check signature: No public key $ gpg --recv DF9B9C49EAA9298432589D76DA87E80D6294BE9B gpg: key 0xDA87E80D6294BE9B: 61 signatures not checked due to missing keys gpg: key 0xDA87E80D6294BE9B: public key "Debian CD signing key " imported gpg: marginals needed: 3 completes needed: 1 trust model: pgp gpg: depth: 0 valid: 1 signed: 0 trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 1u gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: imported: 1 $ gpg --verify SHA512SUMS.sign SHA512SUMS gpg: Signature made Sat Jul 6 18:51:32 2019 PDT gpg: using RSA key DF9B9C49EAA9298432589D76DA87E80D6294BE9B gpg: Good signature from "Debian CD signing key " [unknown] gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature! gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.

Mount a storage device and copy the image to it: **Linux** ```console $ sudo dmesg | tail usb-storage 3-2:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected scsi host2: usb-storage 3-2:1.0 scsi 2:0:0:0: Direct-Access TS-RDF5 SD Transcend TS3A PQ: 0 ANSI: 6 sd 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] 31116288 512-byte logical blocks: (15.9 GB/14.8 GiB) sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 23 00 00 00 sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk $ sudo dd if=debian-live-10.0.0-amd64-xfce.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M 465+1 records in 465+1 records out 1951432704 bytes (2.0 GB, 1.8 GiB) copied, 42.8543 s, 45.5 MB/s ``` **OpenBSD** ```console $ dmesg | tail -n2 sd2 at scsibus4 targ 1 lun 0: SCSI4 0/direct removable serial.0000000000000 sd2: 15193MB, 512 bytes/sector, 31116288 sectors $ doas dd if=debian-live-10.0.0-amd64-xfce.iso of=/dev/rsd2c bs=4m 465+1 records in 465+1 records out 1951432704 bytes transferred in 139.125 secs (14026448 bytes/sec) ``` Shut down the computer and disconnect internal hard drives and all unnecessary peripheral devices. Consider using secure hardware like a ThinkPad X230 running [Coreboot](https://www.coreboot.org/) and [cleaned of Intel ME](https://github.com/corna/me_cleaner). # Required software Boot the OS image and configure networking. **Note** If the screen locks, unlock with `user`/`live`. Open the terminal and install several required packages: **Debian/Ubuntu** ```console $ sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y \ gnupg2 gnupg-agent dirmngr \ cryptsetup scdaemon pcscd \ secure-delete hopenpgp-tools \ yubikey-personalization ``` **Arch** ```console $ sudo pacman -Syu \ gnupg2 pcsclite ccid hopenpgp-tools \ yubikey-personalization ``` **RHEL7** ```console $ sudo yum install -y \ gnupg2 pinentry-curses pcsc-lite pcsc-lite-libs gnupg2-smime ``` **OpenBSD** ```console $ doas pkg_add gnupg pcsc-tools ``` **macOS** Download and install [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) and the following Brew packages: ```console $ brew install gnupg yubikey-personalization hopenpgp-tools ykman pinentry-mac ``` **Windows** Download and install [Gpg4Win](https://www.gpg4win.org/) and [PuTTY](https://putty.org). You may also need more recent versions of [yubikey-personalization](https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-personalization/Releases/) and [yubico-c](https://developers.yubico.com/yubico-c/Releases/). ## Entropy Generating cryptographic keys requires high-quality [randomness](https://www.random.org/randomness/), measured as entropy. To check the available entropy available on Linux: ```console $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail 849 ``` Most operating systems use software-based pseudorandom number generators. A hardware random number generator like [OneRNG](http://onerng.info/onerng/) will [increase the speed](https://lwn.net/Articles/648550/) of entropy generation and possibly the quality. Install and configure OneRNG software: ```console $ sudo apt-get install -y \ at rng-tools python-gnupg openssl $ wget https://github.com/OneRNG/onerng.github.io/raw/master/sw/onerng_3.6-1_all.deb $ sha256sum onerng_3.6-1_all.deb a9ccf7b04ee317dbfc91518542301e2d60ebe205d38e80563f29aac7cd845ccb onerng_3.6-1_all.deb $ sudo dpkg -i onerng_3.6-1_all.deb $ echo "HRNGDEVICE=/dev/ttyACM0" | sudo tee /etc/default/rng-tools ``` Plug in the device and restart rng-tools: ```console $ sudo atd $ sudo service rng-tools restart ``` Test by emptying `/dev/random` - the light on the device will dim briefly: ```console $ cat /dev/random >/dev/null [Press Control-C] ``` After a few seconds, verify the available entropy pool is quickly re-seeded: ```console $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail 3049 ``` An entropy pool value greater than 2000 is sufficient. # Creating keys Create a temporary directory which will be cleared on [reboot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmpfs): ```console $ export GNUPGHOME=$(mktemp -d) $ cd $GNUPGHOME ``` Create a hardened configuration in the temporary directory with the following options: ```console $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/drduh/config/master/gpg.conf $ grep -ve "^#" $GNUPGHOME/gpg.conf personal-cipher-preferences AES256 AES192 AES personal-digest-preferences SHA512 SHA384 SHA256 personal-compress-preferences ZLIB BZIP2 ZIP Uncompressed default-preference-list SHA512 SHA384 SHA256 AES256 AES192 AES ZLIB BZIP2 ZIP Uncompressed cert-digest-algo SHA512 s2k-digest-algo SHA512 s2k-cipher-algo AES256 charset utf-8 fixed-list-mode no-comments no-emit-version keyid-format 0xlong list-options show-uid-validity verify-options show-uid-validity with-fingerprint require-cross-certification no-symkey-cache throw-keyids use-agent ``` Disable networking for the remainder of the setup. # Master key The first key to generate is the master key. It will be used for certification only: to issue sub-keys that are used for encryption, signing and authentication. **Important** The master key should be kept offline at all times and only accessed to revoke or issue new sub-keys. Keys can also be generated on the YubiKey itself to ensure no other copies exist. You'll be prompted to enter and verify a passphrase - keep it handy as you'll need it multiple times later. To generate a strong passphrase which could be written down in a hidden or secure place; or memorized: ```console $ gpg --gen-random -a 0 24 ydOmByxmDe63u7gqx2XI9eDgpvJwibNH ``` On Linux or OpenBSD, select the password with the mouse to copy it to the clipboard and paste using the middle mouse button or `Shift`-`Insert`. Generate a new key with GPG, selecting `(8) RSA (set your own capabilities)`, `Certify` capability only and `4096` bit key size. Do not set the master key to expire - see [Note #3](#notes). ```console $ gpg --expert --full-generate-key Please select what kind of key you want: (1) RSA and RSA (default) (2) DSA and Elgamal (3) DSA (sign only) (4) RSA (sign only) (7) DSA (set your own capabilities) (8) RSA (set your own capabilities) (9) ECC and ECC (10) ECC (sign only) (11) ECC (set your own capabilities) (13) Existing key Your selection? 8 Possible actions for a RSA key: Sign Certify Encrypt Authenticate Current allowed actions: Sign Certify Encrypt (S) Toggle the sign capability (E) Toggle the encrypt capability (A) Toggle the authenticate capability (Q) Finished Your selection?

It is a good idea to perform some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number generator a better chance to gain enough entropy. gpg: /tmp.FLZC0xcM/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created gpg: key 0xFF3E7D88647EBCDB marked as ultimately trusted gpg: directory '/tmp.FLZC0xcM/openpgp-revocs.d' created gpg: revocation certificate stored as '/tmp.FLZC0xcM/openpgp-revocs.d/011CE16BD45B27A55BA8776DFF3E7D88647EBCDB.rev' public and secret key created and signed. pub rsa4096/0xFF3E7D88647EBCDB 2017-10-09 [C] Key fingerprint = 011C E16B D45B 27A5 5BA8 776D FF3E 7D88 647E BCDB uid Dr Duh ``` Export the key ID as a [variable](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1158091/defining-a-variable-with-or-without-export/1158231#1158231) (`KEYID`) for use later: ```console $ export KEYID=0xFF3E7D88647EBCDB ``` # Sign with an existing key (optional) If you already have a pgp key you may want want to sign your new key with the old one to help prove that your new key is infact controlled by you.

GPG's [Signing Subkey Cross-Certification](https://gnupg.org/faq/subkey-cross-certify.html) documentation has more detail on cross certification, and gpg v2.2.1 notes "subkey does not sign and so does not need to be cross-certified". hokey may also indicate a problem (red text) with `Key expiration times: []` on the primary key (see [Note #3](#notes) about not setting an expiry for the primary key). # Export The master key and sub-keys will be encrypted with your passphrase when exported. Save a copy of your keys: ```console $ gpg --armor --export-secret-keys $KEYID > $GNUPGHOME/mastersub.key $ gpg --armor --export-secret-subkeys $KEYID > $GNUPGHOME/sub.key ``` On Windows, note that using any extension other than `.gpg` or attempting IO redirection to a file will garble the secret key, making it impossible to import it again at a later date: ```console $ gpg -o \path\to\dir\mastersub.gpg --armor --export-secret-keys $KEYID $ gpg -o \path\to\dir\sub.gpg --armor --export-secret-subkeys $KEYID ``` # Backup Once GPG keys are moved to YubiKey, they cannot be moved again! Create an **encrypted** backup of the keyring and consider using a [paper copy](https://www.jabberwocky.com/software/paperkey/) of the keys as an additional backup. **Tip**: The ext2 filesystem (without encryption) can be mounted on both Linux and OpenBSD. **Linux** Attach another external storage device and check its label: ```console $ sudo dmesg | tail usb-storage 4-2:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected scsi host7: usb-storage 4-2:1.0 scsi 7:0:0:0: Direct-Access TS-RDF5 SD Transcend TS37 PQ: 0 ANSI: 6 sd 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] 31116288 512-byte logical blocks: (15.9 GB/14.8 GiB) sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 23 00 00 00 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sdb: sdb1 sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk ``` Write it with random data to prepare for encryption: ```console $ sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdb bs=4M status=progress ``` Erase and create a new partition table: ```console $ sudo fdisk /dev/sdb Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.29.2).

Although keys stored on YubiKey are difficult to steal, it is not impossible - the key and PIN could be taken, or a vulnerability may be discovered in key hardware or random number generator used to create them, for example. Therefore, it is good practice to occassionally rotate sub-keys. When a sub-key expires, it can either be renewed or replaced. Both actions require access to the offline master key. Renewing sub-keys by updating their expiration date indicates you are still in possession of the offline master key and is more convenient. Replacing keys, on the other hand, is less convenient but more secure: the new sub-keys will **not** be able to decrypt previous messages, authenticate with SSH, etc. Contacts will need to receive the updated public key and any encrypted secrets need to be decrypted and re-encrypted to new sub-keys to be usable. This process is functionally equivalent to "losing" the YubiKey and provisioning a new one. However, you will always be able to decrypt previous messages using the offline encrypted backup of the original keys. Neither rotation method is superior and it's up to personal philosophy on identity management and individual threat model to decide which one to use, or whether to expire sub-keys at all. Ideally, sub-keys would be ephemeral: used only once for each encryption, signing and authentication event, however in practice that is not really feasible or worthwhile with YubiKey. Advanced users may want to dedicate an offline device for more frequent key rotations and ease of provisioning. To renew or rotate sub-keys, follow the same procedure to boot to a secure environment. Install required software and disconnect networking. Decrypt and mount the offline volume, then import the master key and configuration to a temporary working directory: ```console $ export GNUPGHOME=$(mktemp -d) $ gpg --import /mnt/encrypted-usb/tmp.XXX/mastersub.key $ cp -v /mnt/encrypted-usb/tmp.XXX/gpg.conf $GNUPGHOME ``` Edit the master key: ```console $ export KEYID=0xFF3E7D88647EBCDB $ gpg --edit-key $KEYID Secret key is available [...] ``` Follow the original steps to generate each sub-key. Previous sub-keys may be kept or deleted from the identity. Finish by exporting new keys: ```console $ gpg --armor --export-secret-keys $KEYID > $GNUPGHOME/mastersub.key $ gpg --armor --export-secret-subkeys $KEYID > $GNUPGHOME/sub.key ``` Copy the **new** temporary working directory to encrypted offline storage, which should still be mounted: ```console $ sudo cp -avi $GNUPGHOME /mnt/encrypted-usb ``` There should now be at least two versions of the master and sub-keys backed up: ```console $ ls /mnt/encrypted-usb lost+found tmp.ykhTOGjR36 tmp.2gyGnyCiHs ``` Unmount and close the encrypted volume: ```console $ sudo umount /mnt/encrypted-usb $ sudo cryptsetup luksClose /dev/mapper/usb/ ``` Export the updated public key: ```console $ sudo mkdir /mnt/public $ sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/public $ gpg --armor --export $KEYID | sudo tee /mnt/public/$KEYID-$(date +%F).txt $ sudo umount /mnt/public ``` Disconnect the storage device and follow the original steps to transfer new keys (4, 5 and 6) to YubiKey, replacing existing ones. Reboot or securely erase the GPG temporary working directory. # SSH [gpg-agent](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GnuPG#SSH_agent) supports the OpenSSH ssh-agent protocol (`enable-ssh-support`), as well as Putty's Pageant on Windows (`enable-putty-support`). This means it can be used instead of the traditional ssh-agent / pageant. There are some differences from ssh-agent, notably that gpg-agent does not _cache_ keys rather it converts, encrypts and stores them - persistently - as GPG keys and then makes them available to ssh clients. Any existing ssh private keys that you'd like to keep in `gpg-agent` should be deleted after they've been imported to the GPG agent. When importing the key to `gpg-agent`, you'll be prompted for a passphrase to protect that key within GPG's key store - you may want to use the same passphrase as the original's ssh version. GPG can both cache passphrases for a determined period (ref. `gpg-agent`'s various `cache-ttl` options), and since version 2.1 can store and fetch passphrases via the macOS keychain. Note than when removing the old private key after importing to `gpg-agent`, keep the `.pub` key file around for use in specifying ssh identities (e.g. `ssh -i /path/to/identity.pub`). Probably the biggest thing missing from `gpg-agent`'s ssh agent support is being able to remove keys. `ssh-add -d/-D` have no effect. Instead, you need to use the `gpg-connect-agent` utility to lookup a key's keygrip, match that with the desired ssh key fingerprint (as an MD5) and then delete that keygrip. The [gnupg-users mailing list](https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2016-August/056499.html) has more information. ## Create configuration Create a hardened configuration for gpg-agent by downloading [drduh/config/gpg-agent.conf](https://github.com/drduh/config/blob/master/gpg-agent.conf): ```console $ cd ~/.gnupg $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/drduh/config/master/gpg-agent.conf $ grep -ve "^#" gpg-agent.conf enable-ssh-support default-cache-ttl 60 max-cache-ttl 120 pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-curses ``` **Tip** Set `pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-gnome3` for a GUI-based prompt. On macOS, use `brew install pinentry-mac` and adjust the program path to suit. ## Replace agents To launch `gpg-agent` for use by SSH, use the `gpg-connect-agent /bye` or `gpgconf --launch gpg-agent` commands. Add these to the shell `rc` file: ```console export GPG_TTY="$(tty)" export SSH_AUTH_SOCK="/run/user/$UID/gnupg/S.gpg-agent.ssh" gpg-connect-agent updatestartuptty /bye > /dev/null ``` On some systems, you may need to use the following instead: ```console export GPG_TTY="$(tty)" export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=$(gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket) gpgconf --launch gpg-agent ``` ## Copy public key **Note** It is *not* necessary to import the corresponding GPG public key in order to use SSH. Copy and paste the output from `ssh-add` to the server's `authorized_keys` file: ```console $ ssh-add -L ssh-rsa AAAAB4NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAACAz[...]zreOKM+HwpkHzcy9DQcVG2Nw== cardno:000605553211 ``` ## (Optional) Save public key for identity file configuration By default, SSH attempts to use all the identities available via the agent. It's often a good idea to manage exactly which keys SSH will use to connect to a server, for example to separate different roles or [to avoid being fingerprinted by untrusted ssh servers](https://blog.filippo.io/ssh-whoami-filippo-io/). To do this you'll need to use the command line argument `-i [identity_file]` or the `IdentityFile` and `IdentitiesOnly` options in `.ssh/config`. The argument provided to `IdentityFile` is traditionally the path to the _private_ key file (for example `IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa`). For the YubiKey - indeed, in general for keys stored in an ssh agent - `IdentityFile` should point to the _public_ key file, `ssh` will select the appropriate private key from those available via the ssh agent. To prevent `ssh` from trying all keys in the agent use the `IdentitiesOnly yes` option along with one or more `-i` or `IdentityFile` options for the target host. To reiterate, with `IdentitiesOnly yes`, `ssh` will not automatically enumerate public keys loaded into `ssh-agent` or `gpg-agent`. This means `publickey` authentication will not proceed unless explicitly named by `ssh -i [identity_file]` or in `.ssh/config` on a per-host basis. In the case of YubiKey usage, to extract the public key from the ssh agent: ```console $ ssh-add -L | grep "cardno:000605553211" > ~/.ssh/id_rsa_yubikey.pub ``` Then you can explicitly associate this YubiKey-stored key for used with a host, `github.com` for example, as follows: ```console $ cat << EOF >> ~/.ssh/config Host github.com IdentitiesOnly yes IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_yubikey.pub EOF ``` ## Connect with public key authentication ```console $ ssh git@github.com -vvv [...] debug2: key: cardno:000605553211 (0x1234567890), debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug3: start over, passed a different list publickey debug3: preferred gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,publickey,keyboard-interactive,password debug3: authmethod_lookup publickey debug3: remaining preferred: keyboard-interactive,password debug3: authmethod_is_enabled publickey debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Offering RSA public key: cardno:000605553211 debug3: send_pubkey_test debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 535 debug2: input_userauth_pk_ok: fp e5:de:a5:74:b1:3e:96:9b:85:46:e7:28:53:b4:82:c3 debug3: sign_and_send_pubkey: RSA e5:de:a5:74:b1:3e:96:9b:85:46:e7:28:53:b4:82:c3 debug1: Authentication succeeded (publickey). [...] ``` **Note** To make multiple connections or securely transfer many files, consider using the [ControlMaster](https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSSH/Cookbook/Multiplexing) ssh option. Also see [drduh/config/ssh_config](https://github.com/drduh/config/blob/master/ssh_config). ## Import SSH keys If there are existing SSH keys that you wish to make available via `gpg-agent`, you'll need to import them. You should then remove the original private keys. When importing the key, `gpg-agent` uses the key's filename as the key's label; this makes it easier to follow where the key originated from. In this example, we're starting with just the YubiKey's key in place and importing `~/.ssh/id_rsa`: ```console $ ssh-add -l 4096 SHA256:... cardno:00060123456 (RSA) $ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa && rm ~/.ssh/id_rsa ``` When invoking `ssh-add`, it will prompt for the SSH key's passphrase if present, then the `pinentry` program will prompt and confirm for a new passphrase to use to encrypt the converted key within the GPG key store. The migrated key should be listed in `ssh-add -l`: ```console $ ssh-add -l 4096 SHA256:... cardno:00060123456 (RSA) 2048 SHA256:... /Users/username/.ssh/id_rsa (RSA) ``` Or to show the keys with MD5 fingerprints, as used by `gpg-connect-agent`'s `KEYINFO` and `DELETE_KEY` commands: ```console $ ssh-add -E md5 -l 4096 MD5:... cardno:00060123456 (RSA) 2048 MD5:... /Users/username/.ssh/id_rsa (RSA) ``` When using the key `pinentry` will be invoked to request the key's passphrase. The passphrase will be cached for up to 10 minutes idle time between uses, to a maximum of 2 hours. ## Remote Machines (agent forwarding) If you want to use YubiKey to sign a git commit on a remote machine, or ssh through another layer, then this is possible using Agent Forwarding. To do this, you need access to the remote machine and the YubiKey has to be set up on the host machine. On the local machine, run: ```console $ gpgconf --list-dirs agent-extra-socket ``` This should return a path to agent-extra-socket - `/run/user/1000/gnupg/S.gpg-agent.extra` - though on older Linux distros (and macOS) it may be `/home//.gnupg/S/gpg-agent.extra` Find the agent socket on the **remote** machine: ```console $ gpgconf --list-dirs agent-socket ``` This should return a path such as `/run/user/1000/gnupg/S.gpg-agent` On the remote machine, edit `/etc/ssh/sshd_config` to set `StreamLocalBindUnlink yes` **Optional** If you do not have root access to the remote machine to edit `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`, you will need to remove the socket on the remote machine before forwarding works. For example, `rm /run/user/1000/gnupg/S.gpg-agent`. Further information can be found on the [AgentForwarding GNUPG wiki page](https://wiki.gnupg.org/AgentForwarding). Import public keys to the remote machine. This can be done by fetching from a keyserver. On the local machine, copy the public keyring to the remote machine: ```console $ scp ~/.gnupg/pubring.kbx remote:~/.gnupg/ ``` Finally, enable agent forwarding for a given machine by adding the following to the local machine's ssh config file `~/.ssh/config` (your agent sockets may be different): ``` Host Hostname remote-host.tld ForwardAgent yes RemoteForward /run/user/1000/gnupg/S.gpg-agent /run/user/1000/gnupg/S.gpg-agent.extra # RemoteForward [remote socket] [local socket] ``` You should then be able to use YubiKey as if it were connected to the remote machine. If you're still having problems, it may be necessary to edit `gpg-agent.conf` file on both the remote and local machines to add the following information: ``` enable-ssh-support pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-curses extra-socket /run/user/1000/gnupg/S.gpg-agent.extra ``` See [Issue #85](https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide/issues/85) for more information and troubleshooting. ## GitHub You can use YubiKey to sign GitHub commits and tags. It can also be used for GitHub SSH authentication, allowing you to push, pull, and commit without a password. Login to GitHub and upload SSH and PGP public keys in Settings. To configure a signing key: > git config --global user.signingkey $KEYID Make sure the user.email option matches the email address associated with the PGP identity. Now, to sign commits or tags simply use the `-S` option. GPG will automatically query YubiKey and prompt you for a PIN. To authenticate: **Windows** Run the following command: > git config --global core.sshcommand 'plink -agent' You can then change the repository url to `git@github.com:USERNAME/repository` and any authenticated commands will be authorized by YubiKey. **Note** If you encounter the error `gpg: signing failed: No secret key` - run `gpg --card-status` with YubiKey plugged in and try the git command again. ## OpenBSD Install and enable tools for use with PC/SC drivers, cards, readers, then reboot to recognize YubiKey: ```console $ doas pkg_add pcsc-tools $ doas rcctl enable pcscd $ doas reboot ``` ## Windows Windows can already have some virtual smartcard readers installed, like the one provided for Windows Hello. To ensure your YubiKey is the correct one used by scdaemon, you should add it to its configuration. You will need your device's full name. To find out what is your device's full name, plug your YubiKey, open the Device Manager, select "View->Show hidden devices". Go to the Software Devices list, you should see something like `Yubico YubiKey OTP+FIDO+CCID 0`. The name slightly differs according to the model. Thanks to [Scott Hanselman](https://www.hanselman.com/blog/HowToSetupSignedGitCommitsWithAYubiKeyNEOAndGPGAndKeybaseOnWindows.aspx) for sharing this information. * Create or edit %APPDATA%/gnupg/scdaemon.conf, add `reader-port `. * In %APPDATA%/gnupg/gpg-agent.conf, add: ``` enable-ssh-support enable-putty-support ``` * Open a command console, restart the agent: ``` > gpg-connect-agent killagent /bye > gpg-connect-agent /bye ``` * Enter `> gpg --card-status` to see YubiKey details. * Import the [public key](#export-public-key): `> gpg --import ` * Trust it: [Trust master key](#trust-master-key) * Retrieve the public key id: `> gpg --list-public-keys` * Export the SSH key from GPG: `> gpg --export-ssh-key ` Copy this key to a file for later use. It represents the public SSH key corresponding to the secret key on the YubiKey. You can upload this key to any server you wish to SSH into. * Create a shortcut that points to `gpg-connect-agent /bye` and place it in the startup folder `shell:startup` to make sure the agent starts after a system shutdown. Modify the shortcut properties so it starts in a "Minimized" window, to avoid unnecessary noise at startup. Now you can use PuTTY for public key SSH authentication. When the server asks for public key verification, PuTTY will forward the request to GPG, which will prompt you for a PIN and authorize the login using YubiKey. ### WSL The goal here is to make the SSH client inside WSL work together with the Windows agent you are using (gpg-agent.exe in our case). Here is what we are going to achieve: ![WSL agent architecture](media/schema_gpg.png) **Note** this works only for SSH agent forwarding. Real GPG forwarding (encryption/decryption) is actually not supported. See the [weasel-pageant](https://github.com/vuori/weasel-pageant) readme for further information. #### Prerequisites * Ubuntu 16.04 or newer for WSL * Kleopatra * [Windows configuration](#windows) #### WSL configuration Download or clone [weasel-pageant](https://github.com/vuori/weasel-pageant). Add `eval $(/mnt/c//weasel-pageant -r -a /tmp/S.weasel-pageant)` to shell rc file. Use a named socket here so it can be used in the `RemoteForward` directive of `~/.ssh/config`. Source it with `source ~/.bashrc`. Display the SSH key with `$ ssh-add -l` Edit `~/.ssh/config` to add the following for each host you want to use agent forwarding: ``` ForwardAgent yes RemoteForward /tmp/S.weasel-pageant ``` **Note** The remote ssh socket path can be found with `gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket` #### Remote host configuration Add the following to the shell rc file: ``` export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=$(gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket) export GPG_TTY=$(tty) ``` Add the following to `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`: ``` AllowAgentForwarding yes StreamLocalBindUnlink yes ``` And reload the SSH daemon (e.g., `sudo service sshd reload`). Unplug YubiKey, disconnect or reboot. Log back in to Windows, open a WSL console and enter `ssh-add -l` - you should see nothing. Plug in YubiKey, enter the same command to display the ssh key. Log in to the remote host, you should have the pinentry dialog asking for the YubiKey pin. On the remote host, type `ssh-add -l` - if you see the ssh key, that means forwarding works! **Note** Agent forwarding may be chained through multiple hosts - just follow the same [protocol](#remote-host-configuration) to configure each host. # Multiple Keys To use a single identity with multiple YubiKeys - or to replace a lost card with another - issue this command to switch keys: ```console $ gpg-connect-agent "scd serialno" "learn --force" /bye ``` Alternatively, you could manually delete the GnuPG shadowed key - where the card serial number is stored (see [GnuPG #T2291](https://dev.gnupg.org/T2291)). Find the `Keygrip` number of each key: ```console $ gpg --with-keygrip -k $KEYID pub rsa4096/0xFF3E7D88647EBCDB 2017-10-09 [C] Key fingerprint = 011C E16B D45B 27A5 5BA8 776D FF3E 7D88 647E BCDB Keygrip = 7A20855980A62C10569DE893157F38A696B1300E uid [ ultime ] Dr Duh sub rsa4096/0xBECFA3C1AE191D15 2017-10-09 [S] [expires: 2018-10-09] Keygrip = 85D44BD52AD45C0852BD15BF41161EE9AE477398 sub rsa4096/0x5912A795E90DD2CF 2017-10-09 [E] [expires: 2018-10-09] Keygrip = A0AA3D9F626BDEA3B833F290C7BCA79216C8A996 sub rsa4096/0x3F29127E79649A3D 2017-10-09 [A] [expires: 2018-10-09] Keygrip = 7EF25A1115294342F451BC1CDD0FA94395F2D074 ``` Delete all the shadow keys using their `Keygrip` number: ```console $ cd ~/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d $ rm 85D44BD52AD45C0852BD15BF41161EE9AE477398.key \ A0AA3D9F626BDEA3B833F290C7BCA79216C8A996.key \ 7EF25A1115294342F451BC1CDD0FA94395F2D074.key ``` Insert the new YubiKey and re-generate shadow-keys by checking card status: ```console $ gpg --card-status ``` See discussion in Issues [#19](https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide/issues/19) and [#112](https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide/issues/112) for more information and troubleshooting steps. # Require touch **Note** This is not possible on YubiKey NEO. By default, YubiKey will perform encryption, signing and authentication operations without requiring any action from the user, after the key is plugged in and first unlocked with the PIN. To require a touch for each key operation, install [YubiKey Manager](https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-manager/) and recall the Admin PIN: **Note** Older versions of the YubiKey Manager used `touch` instead of `set-touch` in the below commands. Authentication: ```console $ ykman openpgp set-touch aut on ``` Signing: ```console $ ykman openpgp set-touch sig on ``` Encryption: ```console $ ykman openpgp set-touch enc on ``` YubiKey will blink when it is waiting for a touch. # Email GPG keys on YubiKey can be used with ease to encrypt and/or sign emails and attachments using [Thunderbird](https://www.thunderbird.net/) and [Enigmail](https://www.enigmail.net). Thunderbird supports OAuth 2 authentication and can be used with Gmail. See [this guide](https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/how-use-pgp-linux) from EFF for detailed instructions. ## mailvelope on MacOS [Mailvelope](https://www.mailvelope.com/en) allows GPG keys on YubiKey to be used with Gmail and others. On MacOS install gpgme using homebrew: ```console $ brew install gpgme ``` To allow Chrome to run gpgme: ```console $ nano ~/Library/Application\ Support/Google/Chrome/NativeMessagingHosts/gpgmejson.json ``` and paste: ```json { "name": "gpgmejson", "description": "Integration with GnuPG", "path": "/usr/local/bin/gpgme-json", "type": "stdio", "allowed_origins": [ "chrome-extension://kajibbejlbohfaggdiogboambcijhkke/" ] } ``` Edit the default path to allow Chrome to find gpg: ```console $ sudo launchctl config user path /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin ``` Close Chrome if it is running and reboot your Mac. Finally install the [mailvelope extension](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mailvelope/kajibbejlbohfaggdiogboambcijhkke) from the Chrome app store. # Reset If PIN attempts are exceeded, the card is locked and must be [reset](https://developers.yubico.com/ykneo-openpgp/ResetApplet.html) and set up again using the encrypted backup. Copy the following script to a file and run `gpg-connect-agent -R $file` to lock and terminate the card. Then re-insert YubiKey to reset. ```console /hex scd serialno scd apdu 00 20 00 81 08 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 scd apdu 00 20 00 81 08 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 scd apdu 00 20 00 81 08 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 scd apdu 00 20 00 81 08 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 scd apdu 00 20 00 83 08 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 scd apdu 00 20 00 83 08 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 scd apdu 00 20 00 83 08 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 scd apdu 00 20 00 83 08 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 scd apdu 00 e6 00 00 scd apdu 00 44 00 00 /echo Card has been successfully reset. ``` # Notes 1. YubiKey has two configurations: one invoked with a short press, and the other with a long press. By default, the short-press mode is configured for HID OTP - a brief touch will emit an OTP string starting with `cccccccc`. If you rarely use the OTP mode, you can swap it to the second configuration via the YubiKey Personalization tool. If you *never* use OTP, you can disable it entirely using the [YubiKey Manager](https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-manager) application (note, this not the similarly named YubiKey NEO Manager). 1. Programming YubiKey for GPG keys still lets you use its other configurations - [U2F](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_2nd_Factor), [OTP](https://www.yubico.com/faq/what-is-a-one-time-password-otp/) and [static password](https://www.yubico.com/products/services-software/personalization-tools/static-password/) modes, for example. 1. Setting an expiry essentially forces you to manage your subkeys and announces to the rest of the world that you are doing so. Setting an expiry on a primary key is ineffective for protecting the key from loss - whoever has the primary key can simply extend its expiry period. Revocation certificates are [better suited](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/14718/does-openpgp-key-expiration-add-to-security/79386#79386) for this purpose. It may be appropriate for your use case to set expiry dates on subkeys. 1. To switch between two or more identities on different keys - unplug the first key and restart gpg-agent, ssh-agent and pinentry with `pkill gpg-agent ; pkill ssh-agent ; pkill pinentry ; eval $(gpg-agent --daemon --enable-ssh-support)`, then plug in the other key and run `gpg-connect-agent updatestartuptty /bye` - then it should be ready for use. # Troubleshooting - Use `man gpg` to understand GPG options and command-line flags. - If you encounter problems connecting to YubiKey with GPG - try unplugging and re-inserting YubiKey, and restarting the `gpg-agent` process. - If you receive the error, `gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available` - you likely need to install GnuPG version 2.x. - If you receive the error, `Yubikey core error: no yubikey present` - make sure the YubiKey is inserted correctly. It should blink once when plugged in. - If you still receive the error, `Yubikey core error: no yubikey present` - you likely need to install newer versions of yubikey-personalize as outlined in [Required software](#required-software). - If you receive the error, `Yubikey core error: write error` - YubiKey is likely locked. Install and run yubikey-personalization-gui to unlock it. - If you receive the error, `Key does not match the card's capability` - you likely need to use 2048 bit RSA key sizes. - If you receive the error, `sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed: agent refused operation` - make sure you replaced `ssh-agent` with `gpg-agent` as noted above. - If you still receive the error, `sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed: agent refused operation` - [run the command](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=835394) `gpg-connect-agent updatestartuptty /bye` - If you still receive the error, `sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed: agent refused operation` - check `~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf` to make sure the path to `pinentry` is correct. - If you receive the error, `Error connecting to agent: No such file or directory` from `ssh-add -L`, the UNIX file socket that the agent uses for communication with other processes may not be set up correctly. On Debian, try `export SSH_AUTH_SOCK="/run/user/$UID/gnupg/S.gpg-agent.ssh"`. Also see that `gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket` is returning single path, to existing `S.gpg-agent.ssh` socket. - If you receive the error, `Permission denied (publickey)`, increase ssh verbosity with the `-v` flag and ensure the public key from the card is being offered: `Offering public key: RSA SHA256:abcdefg... cardno:00060123456`. If it is, ensure you are connecting as the right user on the target system, rather than as the user on the local system. Otherwise, be sure `IdentitiesOnly` is not [enabled](https://github.com/FiloSottile/whosthere#how-do-i-stop-it) for this host. - If SSH authentication stil fails - add up to 3 `-v` flags to increase verbosity. # Links * https://alexcabal.com/creating-the-perfect-gpg-keypair/ * https://blog.habets.se/2013/02/GPG-and-SSH-with-Yubikey-NEO * https://blog.josefsson.org/2014/06/23/offline-gnupg-master-key-and-subkeys-on-yubikey-neo-smartcard/ * https://blog.onefellow.com/post/180065697833/yubikey-forwarding-ssh-keys * https://developers.yubico.com/PGP/Card_edit.html * https://developers.yubico.com/PIV/Introduction/Admin_access.html * https://developers.yubico.com/yubico-piv-tool/YubiKey_PIV_introduction.html * https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-personalization/ * https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-piv-manager/PIN_and_Management_Key.html * https://evilmartians.com/chronicles/stick-with-security-yubikey-ssh-gnupg-macos * https://gist.github.com/ageis/14adc308087859e199912b4c79c4aaa4 * https://github.com/herlo/ssh-gpg-smartcard-config * https://github.com/tomlowenthal/documentation/blob/master/gpg/smartcard-keygen.md * https://help.riseup.net/en/security/message-security/openpgp/best-practices * https://jclement.ca/articles/2015/gpg-smartcard/ * https://rnorth.org/gpg-and-ssh-with-yubikey-for-mac * https://trmm.net/Yubikey * https://www.bootc.net/archives/2013/06/09/my-perfect-gnupg-ssh-agent-setup/ * https://www.esev.com/blog/post/2015-01-pgp-ssh-key-on-yubikey-neo/ * https://www.hanselman.com/blog/HowToSetupSignedGitCommitsWithAYubiKeyNEOAndGPGAndKeybaseOnWindows.aspx * https://www.void.gr/kargig/blog/2013/12/02/creating-a-new-gpg-key-with-subkeys/ * https://mlohr.com/gpg-agent-forwarding/
