NAME
systemd-cryptenroll - Enroll PKCS#11, FIDO2, TPM2 token/devices to LUKS2 encrypted volumes
SYNOPSIS
systemd-cryptenroll [OPTIONS...] [DEVICE]
DESCRIPTION
systemd-cryptenroll is a tool for enrolling hardware security tokens and devices into a
LUKS2 encrypted volume, which may then be used to unlock the volume during boot.
Specifically, it supports tokens and credentials of the following kind to be enrolled:
1. PKCS#11 security tokens and smartcards that may carry an RSA key pair (e.g. various
YubiKeys)
2. FIDO2 security tokens that implement the "hmac-secret" extension (most FIDO2 keys,
including YubiKeys)
3. TPM2 security devices
4. Recovery keys. These are similar to regular passphrases, however are randomly
generated on the computer and thus generally have higher entropy than user chosen
passphrases. Their character set has been designed to ensure they are easy to type in,
while having high entropy. They may also be scanned off screen using QR codes.
Recovery keys may be used for unlocking LUKS2 volumes wherever passphrases are
accepted. They are intended to be used in combination with an enrolled hardware
security token, as a recovery option when the token is lost.
5. Regular passphrases
In addition, the tool may be used to enumerate currently enrolled security tokens and wipe
a subset of them. The latter may be combined with the enrollment operation of a new
security token, in order to update or replace enrollments.
The tool supports only LUKS2 volumes, as it stores token meta-information in the LUKS2
JSON token area, which is not available in other encryption formats.
LIMITATIONS
Note that currently when enrolling a new key of one of the five supported types listed
above, it is required to first provide a passphrase or recovery key (i.e. one of the
latter two key types). For example, it's currently not possible to unlock a device with a
FIDO2 key in order to enroll a new FIDO2 key. Instead, in order to enroll a new FIDO2 key,
it is necessary to provide an already enrolled regular passphrase or recovery key. Thus,
if in future key roll-over is desired it's generally recommended to combine TPM2, FIDO2,
PKCS#11 key enrollment with enrolling a regular passphrase or recovery key.
Also note that support for enrolling multiple FIDO2 tokens is currently not too useful, as
while unlocking systemd-cryptsetup cannot identify which token is currently plugged in and
thus does not know which authentication request to send to the device. This limitation
does not apply to tokens enrolled via PKCS#11 — because tokens of this type may be
identified immediately, before authentication.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
--password
Enroll a regular password/passphrase. This command is mostly equivalent to cryptsetup
luksAddKey, however may be combined with --wipe-slot= in one call, see below.
--recovery-key
Enroll a recovery key. Recovery keys are most identical to passphrases, but are
computer generated instead of human chosen, and thus have a guaranteed high entropy.
The key uses a character set that is easy to type in, and may be scanned off screen
via a QR code.
--pkcs11-token-uri=URI
Enroll a PKCS#11 security token or smartcard (e.g. a YubiKey). Expects a PKCS#11
smartcard URI referring to the token. Alternatively the special value "auto" may be
specified, in order to automatically determine the URI of a currently plugged in
security token (of which there must be exactly one). The special value "list" may be
used to enumerate all suitable PKCS#11 tokens currently plugged in. The security token
must contain an RSA key pair which is used to encrypt the randomly generated key that
is used to unlock the LUKS2 volume. The encrypted key is then stored in the LUKS2 JSON
token header area.
In order to unlock a LUKS2 volume with an enrolled PKCS#11 security token, specify the
pkcs11-uri= option in the respective /etc/crypttab line:
myvolume /dev/sda1 - pkcs11-uri=auto
See crypttab(5) for a more comprehensive example of a systemd-cryptenroll invocation
and its matching /etc/crypttab line.
--fido2-device=PATH
Enroll a FIDO2 security token that implements the "hmac-secret" extension (e.g. a
YubiKey). Expects a hidraw device referring to the FIDO2 device (e.g. /dev/hidraw1).
Alternatively the special value "auto" may be specified, in order to automatically
determine the device node of a currently plugged in security token (of which there
must be exactly one). The special value "list" may be used to enumerate all suitable
FIDO2 tokens currently plugged in. Note that many hardware security tokens that
implement FIDO2 also implement the older PKCS#11 standard. Typically FIDO2 is
preferable, given it's simpler to use and more modern.
In order to unlock a LUKS2 volume with an enrolled FIDO2 security token, specify the
fido2-device= option in the respective /etc/crypttab line:
myvolume /dev/sda1 - fido2-device=auto
See crypttab(5) for a more comprehensive example of a systemd-cryptenroll invocation
and its matching /etc/crypttab line.
--fido2-with-client-pin=BOOL
When enrolling a FIDO2 security token, controls whether to require the user to enter a
PIN when unlocking the volume (the FIDO2 "clientPin" feature). Defaults to "yes".
(Note: this setting is without effect if the security token does not support the
"clientPin" feature at all, or does not allow enabling or disabling it.)
--fido2-with-user-presence=BOOL
When enrolling a FIDO2 security token, controls whether to require the user to verify
presence (tap the token, the FIDO2 "up" feature) when unlocking the volume. Defaults
to "yes". (Note: this setting is without effect if the security token does not support
the "up" feature at all, or does not allow enabling or disabling it.)
--fido2-with-user-verification=BOOL
When enrolling a FIDO2 security token, controls whether to require user verification
when unlocking the volume (the FIDO2 "uv" feature). Defaults to "no". (Note: this
setting is without effect if the security token does not support the "uv" feature at
all, or does not allow enabling or disabling it.)
--tpm2-device=PATH
Enroll a TPM2 security chip. Expects a device node path referring to the TPM2 chip
(e.g. /dev/tpmrm0). Alternatively the special value "auto" may be specified, in order
to automatically determine the device node of a currently discovered TPM2 device (of
which there must be exactly one). The special value "list" may be used to enumerate
all suitable TPM2 devices currently discovered.
In order to unlock a LUKS2 volume with an enrolled TPM2 security chip, specify the
tpm2-device= option in the respective /etc/crypttab line:
myvolume /dev/sda1 - tpm2-device=auto
See crypttab(5) for a more comprehensive example of a systemd-cryptenroll invocation
and its matching /etc/crypttab line.
Use --tpm2-pcrs= (see below) to configure which TPM2 PCR indexes to bind the
enrollment to.
--tpm2-pcrs= [PCR...]
Configures the TPM2 PCRs (Platform Configuration Registers) to bind the enrollment
requested via --tpm2-device= to. Takes a "+" separated list of numeric PCR indexes in
the range 0...23. If not used, defaults to PCR 7 only. If an empty string is
specified, binds the enrollment to no PCRs at all. PCRs allow binding the enrollment
to specific software versions and system state, so that the enrolled unlocking key is
only accessible (may be "unsealed") if specific trusted software and/or configuration
is used.

--wipe-slot= [SLOT...]
Wipes one or more LUKS2 key slots. Takes a comma separated list of numeric slot
indexes, or the special strings "all" (for wiping all key slots), "empty" (for wiping
all key slots that are unlocked by an empty passphrase), "password" (for wiping all
key slots that are unlocked by a traditional passphrase), "recovery" (for wiping all
key slots that are unlocked by a recovery key), "pkcs11" (for wiping all key slots
that are unlocked by a PKCS#11 token), "fido2" (for wiping all key slots that are
unlocked by a FIDO2 token), "tpm2" (for wiping all key slots that are unlocked by a
TPM2 chip), or any combination of these strings or numeric indexes, in which case all
slots matching either are wiped. As safety precaution an operation that wipes all
slots without exception (so that the volume cannot be unlocked at all anymore, unless
the volume key is known) is refused.
This switch may be used alone, in which case only the requested wipe operation is
executed. It may also be used in combination with any of the enrollment options listed
above, in which case the enrollment is completed first, and only when successful the
wipe operation executed — and the newly added slot is always excluded from the wiping.
Combining enrollment and slot wiping may thus be used to update existing enrollments:
systemd-cryptenroll /dev/sda1 --wipe-slot=tpm2 --tpm2-device=auto
The above command will enroll the TPM2 chip, and then wipe all previously created TPM2
enrollments on the LUKS2 volume, leaving only the newly created one. Combining wiping
and enrollment may also be used to replace enrollments of different types, for example
for changing from a PKCS#11 enrollment to a FIDO2 one:
systemd-cryptenroll /dev/sda1 --wipe-slot=pkcs11 --fido2-device=auto
Or for replacing an enrolled empty password by TPM2:
systemd-cryptenroll /dev/sda1 --wipe-slot=empty --tpm2-device=auto
-h, --help
Print a short help text and exit.
--version
Print a short version string and exit.
EXIT STATUS
On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
