Linked Data Signatures for GPG

Integration Tests codecov

View On Github

Security Considerations

Supported GPG Keys

ed25519, secp256k1, rsa, p256, p384, p521

You should be aware that some of the crypto supported by GPG may not be considered safe:

If you will only ever need to support Ed25519 or only Secp256k1, you should consider using a restricted Linked Data Signature Suite like:

Getting Started

npm i
npm run test
npm run coverage
npm run docs

CLI Usage

Normal

npm i @transmute/lds-gpg2020 -g
gpg2020 sign -u "3BCAC9A882DEFE703FD52079E9CB06E71794A713" $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.json did:btcr:xxcl-lzpq-q83a-0d5#yubikey

Helpful Testing Commands

npm run gpg2020 -- import-gpg-keys-from-json $(pwd)/docs/example/key.json

VERIFICATION_METHOD=$(cat $(pwd)/docs/example/key.json | jq '.id')
npm run gpg2020 -- sign -u "114FAE6216DE45B78A611D22227982B2ECAFBD45" $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.json $VERIFICATION_METHOD -o $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.signed.json
npm run gpg2020 -- verify $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.signed.json

npm run gpg2020 -- sign -u "FDDB584BDF141F95" $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.json did:example:123#yolo -o $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.signed.json

gpg --armor --output public-key.gpg --export james@example.com
npm run gpg2020 -- make-json-key ./public-key.gpg did:btcr:xxcl-lzpq-q83a-0d5


npm run gpg2020 -- resolve did:web:did.or13.io

npm run gpg2020 -- sign -u "20A968A458342F6B1A822C5BFDDB584BDF141F95" $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.json  did:web:did.or13.io#20a968a458342f6b1a822c5bfddb584bdf141f95 -o $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.signed.yubikey.json

npm run gpg2020 -- verify $(pwd)/docs/example/doc.signed.yubikey.json

Suite Details

Per ld-signatures, this Signature Suite defines the following:

{
  "id": "https://gpg.jsld.org/contexts/#GpgSignature2020",
  "type": "SignatureSuite",
  "canonicalizationAlgorithm": "https://w3id.org/security#URDNA2015",
  "digestAlgorithm": "https://www.ietf.org/assignments/jwa-parameters#SHA256",
  "signatureAlgorithm": "https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880#section-11.4"
}

See the Linked Data Signature Suite Vocabulary.

Example Data

Yubikey

Connect Yubikey

See Generating a key on yubikey

gpg-connect-agent --hex "scd apdu 00 f1 00 00" /bye
gpg --card-edit
generate

Follow instructions:

Make sure to choose to export your keys, you will not be able to access them again if you do not.

At the end you should see:

gpg: Note: backup of card key saved to '/Users/USER/.gnupg/sk_3AF00854CF8D9237.gpg'
gpg: revocation certificate stored as '/Users/USER/.gnupg/openpgp-revocs.d/F1BD12F71206FAA1F236997D60042D876C326166.rev'
public and secret key created and signed.

Show the keys on the card:

General GPG Commands

Export a public key:

gpg --armor --export james@example.com

Encrypt and decrypt:

echo "test message string" | gpg --encrypt --armor -u 3AF00854CF8D9237 --recipient 3AF00854CF8D9237 -o encrypted.txt

gpg --decrypt --armor encrypted.txt

Sign and Verify:

echo "test message string" | gpg --sign --armor -u 3AF00854CF8D9237  -o signed.txt
cat signed.txt | gpg --verify --armor
