stpm-sign - Sign data using the TPM chip
Contents
Description
stpm-sign takes the SRK-encrypted key blob and has the TPM sign the contents of inputfile using the key.
This program is mostly made for debugging, to make sure that the TPM is set up correctly and a valid key
was generated.
Diagnostics
Most errors will probably be related to interacting with the TPM chip. Resetting the TPM chip and taking
ownership should take care of most of them. See the TPM-TROUBLESHOOTING section of simple-tpm-pk11(7).
Examples
stpm-sign -k ~/.simple-tpm-pk11/my.key -f my-data-here
stpm-sign -k ~/.simple-tpm-pk11/my-PIN-key.key -f my-data-here
Enter key PIN: my secret password here
stpm-sign -sk ~/.simple-tpm-pk11/my-PIN-key.key -f my-data-here
Enter SRK PIN: 12345678
Enter key PIN: my secret password here
Name
stpm-sign - Sign data using the TPM chip
Options
-h Show usage info.
-f inputfile
File containing data to be signed.
-k Key to sign with. The key is generated with stpm-keysign.
-s Ask for the SRK password interactively. By default the "Well Known Secret" (20 nulls) is used. The
SRK password is an access token that must be presented for the TPM to perform any operation that
involves the TPM, and an actual secret password is usually not required or useful.
