-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm involved in Secure Boot signing in various distros in several ways. I wrote and maintain pesign ( http://github.com/vathpela/pesign ), which is used for signing EFI binaries, and I'm one of the upstream maintainers of shim ( http://github.com/mjg59/shim ), which most Linux distros use to transition from the firmware's security domain to the kernel's. I'm also responsible for Fedora and RHEL's builds of pesign, shim, and grub2. I'm not responsible for the kernels for RHEL or Fedora, nor for determining which of them finally get signed for Secure Boot. I have been responsible for generating keys for signing Fedora's binaries. As the guy who gets shim signed for Fedora: At no point have I been contacted with warrants of any kind, or any similar instrument, or in any way, from governmental or non-governmental entities, about inclusion of any kind of malware or backdoor in Fedora's signed secure boot binaries, including shim, grub2, the kernel, and pesign, nor have I at any time been approached about disclosure of our signing keys. I am also not aware of anyone else involved in our signing that has been contacted with warrants of any kind, or any similar instrument, or in any way, from governmental or non-governmental entities, about inclusion of any kind of malware or backdoor in Fedora's signed secure boot binaries, including shim, grub2, the kernel, and pesign, nor am I aware of any other involved party having at any time been approached about disclosure of our signing keys. As the guy who gets shim signed for RHEL: At no point have I been contacted with warrants of any kind, or any similar instrument, or in any way, from governmental or non-governmental entities, about inclusion of any kind of malware or backdoor in RHEL's signed secure boot binaries, including shim, grub2, the kernel, and pesign, nor have I at any time been approached about disclosure of our signing keys. I am also not aware of anyone else involved in our signing that has been contacted with warrants of any kind, or any similar instrument, or in any way, from governmental or non-governmental entities, about inclusion of any kind of malware or backdoor in RHEL's signed secure boot binaries, including shim, grub2, the kernel, and pesign, nor am I aware of any other involved party having at any time been approached about disclosure of our signing keys. As a person involved in CentOS signing in an advisory role: I am not aware of anyone else involved in our signing that has been contacted with warrants of any kind, or any similar instrument, or in any way, from governmental or non-governmental entities, about inclusion of any kind of malware or backdoor in CentOS's signed secure boot binaries, including shim, grub2, the kernel, and pesign, nor am I aware of any other involved party having at any time been approached about disclosure of CentOS's signing keys. As the upstream maintainer of pesign and an upstream maintainer of shim: At no point have I been contacted with warrants of any kind, or any similar instrument, or in any way, from governmental or non-governmental entities, about inclusion of any kind of malware or backdoor into either shim or pesign. I am also unaware of any other contributor to shim or pesign having been contacted with warrants of of any kind, or any similar instrument, or in any way, from governmental or non-governmental entities, about inclusion of any kind of malware or backdoor into either shim or pesign. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIVAwUBVH3T3e7SZrcPT+8QAQKTXA//YIQD0Xe0umvVeQ65L0g7bx+R0r0ob4oT wbAGOiTNJOnhzUXYi0ZyoWkWiRFc1ayuOliIxJRU9wsU7qSsIf/l7JENo1EPU2sG a2UWA9FuCAy+duQ03/eSPmUbTmx7Cp8eQQ3uG9iUnD6vhC5VOdzZlcOLlp+P8U+e jOU05nTFD6FojcOdoQqwIz71Dl2vuOqLaRTXkRibHesqDJ0fxHNLKJMd604efjjT PqSnma9JJbU88eeymM1K08gYdOZoCMyY2skQ13MPFME/yMNDCvWEbzNxbHCwvqFd XFrFya6dCXIN5HK7XrlSVCnH+iJCbI0txRu3FedpK5UCiyXaG9OvBF9mAZ6I4JYX gZcHGwxOkmHtJM+CgkS9RECvtwZiBNZFSo911jInsCoSF9jJ5PRCeXeiBOmFAAV+ qNx1U66+QbB8CUo+yOH8HZ7PnRC00I52UMQzH/1fLxGcJe4Dp/AJUV1bhJU6SECx hkXl02dFVv1Jvf7GYnSKQJXWrUqKbBr12z/8trCszG2TyThDrnOtNAwVPzZJe/s/ 4g4vZQgaeC5ABWbY6sD95Leew1bIHP3XJn6x7amxZEaQRTFJ8YczWvFKFmWGXu/I M/CmHoQ8mTmFoQqyPYKaxn14FB/8MZKhFQqH2HFJREly89nDLcpNM/nEP5uJuK8A Z/XG1FIIRYI= =Zv+7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
