MODULE SIGNING FOR UNPRIVILEGED USERS TO CREATE AND LOAD TRUSTWORTHY KERNEL MODULES

摘要

A module building system, hosted by a server, receives a user script to be run to monitor software on a client using an introspection tool. The server adds safety constraints to the user script and generates a client kernel module using the user script which includes the safety constraints. The server signs the client kernel module and sends the signed client kernel module to the client. The signed client kernel module allows a user to use the introspection tool to load and execute the client module on the client for monitoring the software on the client.
