Interest List: brian.cameron@sun.com darren.moffat@sun.com wyllys.ingersoll@sun.com 2. Project Summary 2.1. Project Description: Seahorse is a GNOME application for managing SSH keys and GNOME keyrings. It is a standard component of GNOME since 2.24. With Seahorse you can - Create and manage SSH keys. - Manage your keyrings. 4. Technical Description: 4.1 Create and Manage SSH keys Secure Shell (SSH) is a way of logging into a remote computer to execute commands on that machine. SSH keys are used in a key-based authentication system, as an alternative to the default password authentication system. To create a SSH key using seahorse, the user needs to give a description of what the key is to be used for. The user needs to specify the encryption type (RSA or DSA), the key strength (1024-4096) and the passphrase for the key. The newly created key is stored at ~/.ssh. Users can list or delete SSH keys under ~/.ssh. The user can also change the passphrase for them. Seahorse uses 'ssh-keygen' to produce these keys. - change the passphrase ssh-keygen -p -f input_keyfile - generate the key ssh-keygen -b bits -t type -C comment -f output_keyfile 4.2 Exporting and Importing Keys Seahorse can import SSH keys from the clipboard or a key file. Seahorse allows users to specify a SSH key file. Seahorse does not change the content of imported files, instead, Seahorse copies the imported files to ~/.ssh with non-duplicated file names. Users can also export SSH private or public keys to files. In fact, Seahorse just copies the content of files under ~/.ssh to new files. This is for convenience to some junior users. They may want to save or put their keys to other machines. For example, some developers need to upload their public keys to www.opensolaris.org. They don't need to know where SSH keys are usually stored since Seahorse shows them keys. They can export those keys into files via Seahorse directly. Seahorse can copy public key info to the clipboard. 4.3 Manage keyrings Users can create and delete keyrings. Users can also change the password of a keyring. Seahorse does this via interfaces provided by GNOME keyring (LSARC/2008/430). The created keyring files are stored in ~/.gnome2/keyrings/ 4.4 Trusted keys. Users can set ssh public keys as trusted keys. The trusted keys will be put into the file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys. 4.5 Seahorse D-BUS API The Seahorse D-BUS API allows other programs to: - Query information about the user's keys, and watch for changes. - Perform import/export and other basic operations on the user's keys. The Seahorse D-BUS service name is: org.gnome.seahorse It is implemented by the seahorse-daemon process, which will be started automatically as needed (using D-BUS activation) org.gnome.seahorse.KeyService Import and exporting of keys, as well as some other misc stuff.

SUNWseahorse (base package) - base package for binaries SUNWseahorse-root SUNWseahorse-devel (development package) - development package 4.8 Security Impact: Seahorse is just a GUI front-end of ssh and GNOME keyring, its security can be ensured by ssh and GNOME keyring. Seahorse provides a session daemon named seahorse-daemon. It provides a D-BUS interface. The D-BUS architecture ensures that only the applications running as the same user can access the daemon to get the key services. You can refer to [1] get the interface description. 4.9 Dependencies: Seahorse makes use of ssh-keygen to generate keys and change the passphrase. So it depends on the package SUNWsshcu. 5.

*u & *r were used when package names were limited to 9 characters.
Since the expansion to 32-characters in Solaris 9, quite a few
packages have been integrated (especially in GNOME/JDS) with the
-root convention.

Of course, any *r or -root package is defacto Obsolete, since IPS
recombines usr & root packages into a single unified package.
