README

check CLI tool

This binary is a thin wrapper around the verify library to check Intel TDX quotes against expectations.

The tool's input is an Intel TDX quote.

The tool's output is an error or "Success".

Usage

./check [options...]

-in

This flag provides the path to the quote to check. Stdin is "-".

-inform

The format that input takes. One of

• bin: for a raw binary quote.
• proto: A binary serialized tdx.QuoteV4 message.
• textproto: The tdx.QuoteV4 message in textproto format.

Default value is bin.

quiet

If set, doesn't write exit errors to Stdout. All results are communicated through exit code.

verbosity

Used to set the verbosity of logger, where higher number means more verbose output.

Default value is 0.

check_crl

Checks if the PCK certificate and the intermediate certificate of the PCK certificate chain has been revoked, and errors if so. Default false. Requires -get_collateral to be true so that CRLs are downloaded from the network.

Note: For more details about PCK CRLs refer Intel's PCK CRL specification

get_collateral

Uses the network to download "collateral" elements:

• CRLs (if -check_crl)
• The Intel quoting enclave (QE) Identity, and
• TCB info from Intel's PCS.

Default false.

Examples

The following example checks a binary quote, downloads collaterals, checks the quote against collaterals, and checks certificate revocations.

$ ./check -in quote.dat -inform bin -get_collateral -check_crl

Exit code meaning

• 0: Success
• 1: Failure due to tool misuse
• 2: Failure due to quote parsing errors, invalid signatures, certificates or collateral mismatch
• 3: Failure due to an issue with the network or Intel's PCS
