Context

• Certification of SLE88 according to Common Criteria EAL5+

• Existing LKW security model of SLE 66 [LKW00, vOL02] applies

• New security functionality for SLE88: Memory Management Unit

• virtual address space

• protection mechanisms on both virtual and physical level

• Intended to achieve security objectives:

• Restricted memory access

• Separation of applications, OS, and chip security functionality (SL)

• Augmenting the LKW model with a separate memory management model suffices

applies to 4-bit blocks of physical addresses

• Effective Access Rights (EARs)

System Model: Memory Access

Auxiliary function for checking access control conditions

Request for access mode at virtual address va in state s returns Ok, if:• va is mapped to a physical address• access is (privileged or) permitted according to EAR table• BPF is consistently assigned (or special access by SL)

Security Properties (1):“Granted Accesses Do Respect EAR Settings”

PT_map PEAVEA

WW

WR

Consistency of EARs:• In case of non-injective PT_map, the effective

protections is determined by weakest EAR• Conflicts are possible• Should aliasing be prohibited?• Solution: Define consistency requirements on EARs: all WW or all RR• Property only holds in case of EAR consistency

Security Properties (2):“Protection of SL Memory”

Required axioms (assumptions):

• Initial state satisfies requirements on BPF and initial EAR values • Benign behaviour of SL (correct setting of BPF values, page table

entries, and EAR table entries)

Used lemmas (invariants):

• SL parts of page table and EAR table can only be modified by SL• EARs referring to SL are always set in a way that access by non-SL packages is denied• For SL memory areas, the BPF tag is always set

Conclusion

• Identification: necessary assumptions on initial state and behaviour of SL

• Analysis: effects of non-injective address mappings

• Analysis: role of block protection fields (BPF)

• Proof: security functionality is adequate to satisfy security requirements

(on abstract level of specification)

• Proof: security specification is consistent

(with some additional arguments referring to consistency of HOL)

• Security model satisfies all requirements of ADV_SPM.2

and thus contributes to EAL5 certification

• Effort: 2 person months

Results on BPF

• Prohibits access of non-SL packages to SL through alternative access paths

• Allows to grant exclusive access of SL to other memory areas

• Achieves write protection of SL memory areas in case of traps being delayed

• Is not a “fail-safe” mechanism in case of inappropriate EARs for SL memory!
