Hi !

I am new to loop-aes and an advanced linux user - guess what that means.

I am using Mandrake Linux v10.0 Official with a new customly compiled 
kernel Ver. 2.6.8. Block Device "Loop" is deactivated in .config.

I downloaded
a) util-linux-2.12a
b) aes-loop-2.0g

I chose old Package Versions, because the version of the util-linux 
package matches the util-linux patch shipped with aes-loop-2.0g 
(util-linux-2.12a.diff) correctly.

Compiling (a) works fine, but doing "make" in the base dir of (b) fails.

Work Dir (pwd):
    loop-aes-2.12a

Command a)
make
Ouput:
---
cd /lib/modules/2.6.8/build && make 
SUBDIRS=/root/download/loop-AES-v2.0g modules Q='@cd 
/root/download/loop-AES-v2.0g && if [ "$@" = 
"/root/download/loop-AES-v2.0g" ]; then make modules; fi; # '
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.8'
   Building modules, stage 2.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.8'
---
Command b)
make LINUX_SOURCE=/usr/linux-2.6.8
   same as with
make LINUX_SOURCE=/usr/linux-2.6.8 KBUILD_OUTPUT=/lib/modules/2.6.8

Output:
---
cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.8 && make SUBDIRS=/root/download/loop-AES-v2.0g 
modules Q='@cd /root/download/loop-AES-v2.0g && if [ "$@" = 
"/root/download/loop-AES-v2.0g" ]; then make modules; fi; # '
/usr/src/linux-2.6.8/Makefile:415: .config: No such file or directory
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.8'
   Building modules, stage 2.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.8'
---

"make tests" fails. I cannot find a compiled "loop.ko" (loop.o) in
    /lib/modules/2.6.8/kernel/drivers/block
I tried "find /lib/modules/2.6.8/ -name 'loop*'", but got not positive 
result.

I have successfully used cryptoloop in single-key mode before. My goal 
is to use aes-loop in multi-key loop as comfortably and verbosly 
described in the README file of aes-loop.

I would be pleased if someone could give me a hint how to fix the 
Makefile appropriately, however I consider it to be valid and complete 
or instruct me what parameters to pass to make to compile aes-loop 
successfully.

Cheers

Jens Stein

You can use losetup/mount/swapon from util-linux-2.12a with loop.ko from
latest loop-AES-v2.2b package.

This Makefile incompatibility should be fixed in loop-AES-v2.2b

Just as you said.

Only that you need the (binary) ProDVD-Version of cdrecord.

You haven't read the readme.

(I guess there would have been more appropriate lists/newsgroups for 
this question...) You had dvd+rw-tools installed, hadn't you? Its man 
page says:

---
        To use growisofs to write a pre-mastered  ISO-image  to  a
        DVD:

             growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=image.iso
---

It says "ISO-image" but I'd wonder if it would get upset about any other 
data.

Content-Type: text/plain;

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I have an old encrypted file with a .cpt extension.  I created this file
using an old version of SuSE if memory serves.  I am trying to figure
out how to figure out what utility/algorithm was used to create this
file so I can take some stabs at decrypting it.  The file in question
was a tar.gz file that was encrypted using some console based encryption
program (with a command like "encrypt filename.ext" which produces
"filename.ext.cpt"), which may help determine this. Is there maybe a
utility that would allow me to put in a password and have it try to
decrypt using all known algorithms and perhaps show the first few lines
from the decrypted file (so I can determine if one looks like a gz file
- although I haven't looked to see if it would have a recognizable
header)?
=20
I'm just trying to figure out how to proceed at this point, of if I can
forget getting the data contained in this file back.

well, googling for "encrypt .cpt" reveals, that there is a program called
"ccrypt" which is ncrypting files and adding .cpt to the filename:

http://quasar.mathstat.uottawa.ca/~selinger/ccrypt/

the website says "ccrypt is based on the Rijndael cipher" so *if* ccrypt
was used to encrypt your file (crawl old SuSE distros for that program),
then we should have the algorithm.

the plaintext, i.e. the "gz" contents should only be available when you
have the correct passphrase though...that's why it's encrypted ;-)

This is an old thread, but I found the mailing list on (cryptoapi) 
linux crypto development:
http://lists.logix.cz/mailman/listinfo/cryptoapi

Recent discussions focused on more use of sysfs for core linux drivers, 
etc. Developers-only, I presume.

Even at this late date, I am not certain how the cryptoapi discussed on 
that mailing list relates to mainline kernel development. It seems to 
be the modern equivalent of kerneli.org work.

Can you explain the advantages of PPDD over the mainline kernel 
"cryptoloop" (loopback block device encryption via cryptoapi) ?

I experimented with crypto-loop using blowfish or twofish, and it seems 
quite stable for device-backed loops. Jari Ruusu has raised concerns 
about encryption key re-use with it, so I'm trying loop-aes now...

A short description of how PPDD is different would be interesting!

Thanks!

It might not be that mainline soon:

<URL:http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/3521>

I don't know if something has happened since, but it seems that at least 
2.6.9pre4 doesn't yet remove cryptoloop.

PPDD depends on cryptoloop, so it might break again soon. X) Quick (and 
possibly dirty) solution would be to kick cryptoloop back, and provide a 
patch as for 2.4 series.

I think PPDD does fairly well what it should do. Most of the stuff, like 
key management, are tightly integrated. This is a problem if it doesn't 
offer exactly what you want, and at least then loop-AES is a better choice.

The solutions currently in kernel, like cryptoloop, don't seem secure 
enough for many uses. Try searching Google for e.g. "cryptoloop security 
weaknesses". I guess Jari has said something about security regarding 
cryptoloop etc.:

You'll find something from the above URL. More specific description on 
how PPDD works can be found in Allan Latham's original PPDD package.

Hi.

Is there any possibility of running journaling file system on the top of
crypted partition or file? It doesn't have to be loop-aes...

Yours sincerely

>From Jari's README for loop-aes:


2.2. Use of journaling file systems on loop device
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't use a journaling file system on top of file backed loop device.
Device backed loop device can be used with journaling file systems as
device backed loops guarantee that writes reach disk platters in order
required by journaling file system (write caching must be disabled on
the disk drive, of course). With file backed loop devices, correct write
ordering may extend only to page cache (which resides in RAM) of
underlying file system. VM can write such pages to disk in any order it
wishes, and thus break write order expectation of journaling file
system.

Yes. I know. But I wonder if there is other patch that can be
used with journaling fs.

Hi there...I am looking for a simple tool which I can use to encrypt and =
compress a file and decompress and decrypt a file in Linux.

I can use command line gpg and compress/gzip for it but my =
decryption/decompression requirement is that I need to read the =
encrypted/compressed file from a ROM and print its contents into console =
without creating any temporary files. Basically, I don;t have write =
permission to the system....i can only read from it and print into the =
console.=20

So, I need a kind of simple C/C++ API which I can use to (de/en)crypt =
and (un/)compress byte/char streams.=20

Can anybody share any of his experiances regarding this?

Thanks,
Arijit

hm, someone hasn't read his documentation yet. ;-) Thought of piping?

Assume you have secretfile.txt. E.g.

(1) $ gzip secretfile.txt
(2) $ gpg -c secretfile.txt.gz

You get secretfile.txt.gz.gpg

On the other box use, e.g.

$ gpg --decrypt secretfile.txt.gz.gpg | gunzip | less

Or if you first encrypt and then compress (you first did (2) and then (1)):

$ gunzip -c secretfile.txt.gpg.gz | gpg --decrypt | less

Uhhh, why so complicated? Just use The Power of Shell.

HTH,
 Mike

The Cryptoloop HOWTO does not discuss booting from an encrypted root 
partition.  Is there a document along the lines of the Encrypted Root 
Filesystem HOWTO at http://linuxfromscratch.org/~devine/erfs-howto.html?

Mr. Daniel Harvey:

Referencing your comments of 18 OCT 2004, I comment as follows:

Based on your argument, is it presumable that using a journaling =
filesystem
on a file backed loop device (even if you are not using loop-aes, or any
encryption mechanism) can be quite a dangerous, correct?

By the way at the bottom of your comments, you say "PS. Kernel 2.6", =
does
that mean that the issue you speak of does not apply in Kernel 2.6 as it =
has
been remediated in that kernel version?


Very Respectfully,=20

>From Jari's README for loop-aes:


2.2. Use of journaling file systems on loop device
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't use a journaling file system on top of file backed loop device. =
Device
backed loop device can be used with journaling file systems as device =
backed
loops guarantee that writes reach disk platters in order required by
journaling file system (write caching must be disabled on the disk =
drive, of
course). With file backed loop devices, correct write ordering may =
extend
only to page cache (which resides in RAM) of underlying file system. VM =
can
write such pages to disk in any order it wishes, and thus break write =
order
expectation of journaling file system.

i parse your mail as "you want to know how to set up an encrypted root 
filesystem NOT using loop-aes but cryptoloop" - right?

well, the "official" cryptoloop howto from tldp.org is in revision 1.2. 
an older version of this howto (v1.1) is available here:

http://www.frech.ch/howto/HOWTO/html_single/Cryptoloop-HOWTO/

and it says in chapter 2:

"Loop-AES offers some additional features that are not yet present in 
the kernel implementation of Cryptoloop. If you want to encrypt the root 
and swap partitions, you may want to stick with Loop-AES for now."

i don't know why it was deleted from current versions of the howto.

i assume (!) you can take the loop-aes encrypted rootfs howto as a 
basis. you'll probably have to create an initrd for cryptoloop too, 
which will be present unencrypted and then (during bootup) will 
pivot_root to the real (encrypted) rootfs.

Hi Stuart,

(1) Absolutely - journaling filesystems depend upon the maintenance of
the order of device write operations. Where this is not the case, file
system recovery based upon the journal has the potential to be very
dangerous.

(2) The "PS. Kernel 2.6" comment was made by Majek in his original
e-mail. The implications of ordered device writes vs journaling
filesystems apply across the board including 2.6. The potential problems
are inherent to the the very flexibility of a loop device - you can
potentially construct looped filesystems n-levels deep.

BTW, I cannot claim the arguments as "mine" or take credit :-) Happy to
accept the blame for all errors. Comments/clarifications welcome.

D.

hm, someone hasn't read his documentation yet. ;-) Thought of piping?

Assume you have secretfile.txt. E.g.

(1) $ gzip secretfile.txt
(2) $ gpg -c secretfile.txt.gz

You get secretfile.txt.gz.gpg

On the other box use, e.g.

$ gpg --decrypt secretfile.txt.gz.gpg | gunzip | less

Or if you first encrypt and then compress (you first did (2) and then (1)):

$ gunzip -c secretfile.txt.gpg.gz | gpg --decrypt | less

Uhhh, why so complicated? Just use The Power of Shell.

HTH,
 Mike

I wrote a sort-of long howto about cryptoloop-based encrypted root at
http://www.sdc.org/~leila/usb-dongle

I think it is noted in the TLDP HOWTO.

My efforts focused on a pivot_root boot from a uClibc-based mini-system 
on a USB flash device. The web site has source code and an example 
filesystem image.

I never completed the write-up, as I wanted to personally use 
everything that I documented. I got stuck on the bootable CD, believe 
it or not, but figured out how to do that just a couple of days ago. So 
although the document is a year old, I was planning on dusting it off 
and updating it.

But I must say that I'm in the process of moving my stuff from 
crypto-loop to loop-AES!

loop-AES changes since previous release:
- Added compile time autodetection and workaround for per-thread vs.
  per-process rlimits (2.6 kernels).
- Added Gentoo compatible binary key setup option to mount and losetup
  'mount -p 0 -o phash=unhashed3' or 'losetup -p 0 -H unhashed3'.
- Added random key setup option to mount and losetup. This can be used to
  encrypt /tmp with random keys.
- Added workaround for module_param_array() breakage in 2.6.10-rc

As some of you may have noticed, new example 4 of loop-AES README file was
fucked up. One important step was missing from example 4 instructions, and
if those instructions were followed literally, /tmp partition most likely
ended up being unwritable by non-root users.

Below is the fix in patch form, and URL of full corrected README file:

 Encryption keys and plaintext data on above type mount vanish on unmount or
 power off. Using journaled file system in such case does not make much

Greetings,

well, I'm looking for a way to encrypt my files, filesystem - surprised, ai=
n't=20
yeh?  ;-) But I'm getting a little bit confused by the offer.
Due to google a found a lot of ways to perform this task

=2D GnuPG
=2D aes-pipe
=2D aes-loop
=2D standard linux crypto loopback device
=2D Encryption using the device mapper
=2D ppdd loop device
=2D (.. some I have not found yet, but afaik there was an approach patching=
 nfs=20
or something like that)

I hope nobody blame me for being a little bit confused right know ;-)
Due to google, I found how to set up every single utility, but I haven't fo=
und=20
any site comparing theses approaches, analysing 'em (from a scientific poin=
t=20
of view) and give some advice for newbies.

I've been  using gpg for mail and backup encryption for years, It tend to b=
e=20
very useful, and because of using userland programs only, it is very portab=
le=20
and ideal for backups or mails I may want to decrypt on othersystems.
I used it from a very naive point of view not thinking of security in detai=
l,=20
(like multiple keys for block-device encryption).

Now the situation has changed. I purchased a laptop and want to encrypt my=
=20
home for security reasons. (I don't want a thief or a competitor be able to=
=20
read it). So I need I very secure filesystem encryption and aes-loop, ppdd=
=20
and device-mapper encryption draw my attention. Due to requiring  modules /=
=20
kernelcode and a patched util-linux it seem to be impossible to use more th=
an=20
one at the same time. (Without rebooting the system)
On the other hand I want to use some mountable encryption for portable stor=
age=20
devices as well. For instance I have a USB-Stick /DVD-RAM /-RW with some=20
enclosed data I want to access on different systems.  (All systems are=20
considered to be trusted).  The data should be able to be accessed form=20
userland as well as kernelland based tools. I want to be able to mount it o=
n=20
some systems - on other systems userland access is necessary because I cann=
ot=20
use the kernel I want. Being able to gain access to my data with OpenBSD,=20
Solaris or MacOS would also be nice.=20
On the one hand, aes-pipe seems to be a perfect approach for this task, but=
 on=20
the other hand, I don't know which features of  loop-aes (like multiple key=
s)=20
are implemented in aes-pipe, too.
So, can you show me a way out of this jungle?

Keep smiling
