| 1. USB CCID device
 | |
| 
 | |
| The USB CCID device is a USB device implementing the CCID specification, which
 | |
| lets one connect smart card readers that implement the same spec. For more
 | |
| information see the specification:
 | |
| 
 | |
|  Universal Serial Bus
 | |
|  Device Class: Smart Card
 | |
|  CCID
 | |
|  Specification for
 | |
|  Integrated Circuit(s) Cards Interface Devices
 | |
|  Revision 1.1
 | |
|  April 22rd, 2005
 | |
| 
 | |
| Smartcards are used for authentication, single sign on, decryption in
 | |
| public/private schemes and digital signatures. A smartcard reader on the client
 | |
| cannot be used on a guest with simple usb passthrough since it will then not be
 | |
| available on the client, possibly locking the computer when it is "removed". On
 | |
| the other hand this device can let you use the smartcard on both the client and
 | |
| the guest machine. It is also possible to have a completely virtual smart card
 | |
| reader and smart card (i.e. not backed by a physical device) using this device.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 2. Building
 | |
| 
 | |
| The cryptographic functions and access to the physical card is done via NSS.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Installing NSS:
 | |
| 
 | |
| In redhat/fedora:
 | |
|     yum install nss-devel
 | |
| In ubuntu/debian:
 | |
|     apt-get install libnss3-dev
 | |
|     (not tested on ubuntu)
 | |
| 
 | |
| Configuring and building:
 | |
|     ./configure --enable-smartcard && make
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 3. Using ccid-card-emulated with hardware
 | |
| 
 | |
| Assuming you have a working smartcard on the host with the current
 | |
| user, using NSS, qemu acts as another NSS client using ccid-card-emulated:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     qemu -usb -device usb-ccid -device ccid-card-emulated
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 4. Using ccid-card-emulated with certificates stored in files
 | |
| 
 | |
| You must create the CA and card certificates. This is a one time process.
 | |
| We use NSS certificates:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     mkdir fake-smartcard
 | |
|     cd fake-smartcard
 | |
|     certutil -N -d sql:$PWD
 | |
|     certutil -S -d sql:$PWD -s "CN=Fake Smart Card CA" -x -t TC,TC,TC -n fake-smartcard-ca
 | |
|     certutil -S -d sql:$PWD -t ,, -s "CN=John Doe" -n id-cert -c fake-smartcard-ca
 | |
|     certutil -S -d sql:$PWD -t ,, -s "CN=John Doe (signing)" --nsCertType smime -n signing-cert -c fake-smartcard-ca
 | |
|     certutil -S -d sql:$PWD -t ,, -s "CN=John Doe (encryption)" --nsCertType sslClient -n encryption-cert -c fake-smartcard-ca
 | |
| 
 | |
| Note: you must have exactly three certificates.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can use the emulated card type with the certificates backend:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     qemu -usb -device usb-ccid -device ccid-card-emulated,backend=certificates,db=sql:$PWD,cert1=id-cert,cert2=signing-cert,cert3=encryption-cert
 | |
| 
 | |
| To use the certificates in the guest, export the CA certificate:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     certutil -L -r -d sql:$PWD -o fake-smartcard-ca.cer -n fake-smartcard-ca
 | |
| 
 | |
| and import it in the guest:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     certutil -A -d /etc/pki/nssdb -i fake-smartcard-ca.cer -t TC,TC,TC -n fake-smartcard-ca
 | |
| 
 | |
| In a Linux guest you can then use the CoolKey PKCS #11 module to access
 | |
| the card:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     certutil -d /etc/pki/nssdb -L -h all
 | |
| 
 | |
| It will prompt you for the PIN (which is the password you assigned to the
 | |
| certificate database early on), and then show you all three certificates
 | |
| together with the manually imported CA cert:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     Certificate Nickname                        Trust Attributes
 | |
|     fake-smartcard-ca                           CT,C,C
 | |
|     John Doe:CAC ID Certificate                 u,u,u
 | |
|     John Doe:CAC Email Signature Certificate    u,u,u
 | |
|     John Doe:CAC Email Encryption Certificate   u,u,u
 | |
| 
 | |
| If this does not happen, CoolKey is not installed or not registered with
 | |
| NSS.  Registration can be done from Firefox or the command line:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     modutil -dbdir /etc/pki/nssdb -add "CAC Module" -libfile /usr/lib64/pkcs11/libcoolkeypk11.so
 | |
|     modutil -dbdir /etc/pki/nssdb -list
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 5. Using ccid-card-passthru with client side hardware
 | |
| 
 | |
| on the host specify the ccid-card-passthru device with a suitable chardev:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     qemu -chardev socket,server=on,host=0.0.0.0,port=2001,id=ccid,wait=off \
 | |
|          -usb -device usb-ccid -device ccid-card-passthru,chardev=ccid
 | |
| 
 | |
| on the client run vscclient, built when you built QEMU:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     vscclient <qemu-host> 2001
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 6. Using ccid-card-passthru with client side certificates
 | |
| 
 | |
| This case is not particularly useful, but you can use it to debug
 | |
| your setup if #4 works but #5 does not.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Follow instructions as per #4, except run QEMU and vscclient as follows:
 | |
| Run qemu as per #5, and run vscclient from the "fake-smartcard"
 | |
| directory as follows:
 | |
| 
 | |
|     qemu -chardev socket,server=on,host=0.0.0.0,port=2001,id=ccid,wait=off \
 | |
|          -usb -device usb-ccid -device ccid-card-passthru,chardev=ccid
 | |
|     vscclient -e "db=\"sql:$PWD\" use_hw=no soft=(,Test,CAC,,id-cert,signing-cert,encryption-cert)" <qemu-host> 2001
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 7. Passthrough protocol scenario
 | |
| 
 | |
| This is a typical interchange of messages when using the passthru card device.
 | |
| usb-ccid is a usb device. It defaults to an unattached usb device on startup.
 | |
| usb-ccid expects a chardev and expects the protocol defined in
 | |
| cac_card/vscard_common.h to be passed over that.
 | |
| The usb-ccid device can be in one of three modes:
 | |
|  * detached
 | |
|  * attached with no card
 | |
|  * attached with card
 | |
| 
 | |
| A typical interchange is: (the arrow shows who started each exchange, it can be client
 | |
| originated or guest originated)
 | |
| 
 | |
| client event      |      vscclient           |    passthru    |     usb-ccid  |  guest event

 | |
|                                     [(card insert, apdu's, card remove) repeat]
 | |
|                                                     ...
 | |
| kill/quit         |                          |                |               |

 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 8. libcacard
 | |
| 
 | |
| Both ccid-card-emulated and vscclient use libcacard as the card emulator.
 | |
| libcacard implements a completely virtual CAC (DoD standard for smart
 | |
| cards) compliant card and uses NSS to retrieve certificates and do
 | |
| any encryption.  The backend can then be a real reader and card, or
 | |
| certificates stored in files.
 | |
| 
 | |
| For documentation of the library see docs/libcacard.txt.
