LUKS-encrypted partition is not automatically unlocked during the boot process with a fido2 key

[jean-christophe-manciot]

What version of libfido2 are you using? 1.10.0-1

What operating system are you running? ubuntu 22.04 linux 5.19.0-15-generic #15-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Aug 2 07:35:59 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

What application are you using in conjunction with libfido2? not sure what process calls libfido2 during boot, maybe systemd-cryptsetup

How does the problem manifest itself? only during boot, not after login

Is the problem reproducible? yes

What are the steps that lead to the problem?

1. The partition is encrypted with luks2 and a fido2 key has been enrolled.with:

   systemd-cryptenroll --fido2-device=auto /dev/<device>

2. define an entry for an LUKS2 encrypted device in /etc/crypttab

   <target_name> LABEL=<label> none luks,fido2-device=auto

3. define an entry for an LUKS2 encrypted device in /etc/fstab

   /dev/mapper/<target_name> /media/<folder> ext4 defaults,noatime 0 0

4. add a few steps after crypttab modifications

   systemctl daemon-reload
   update-initramfs -u -k all (not sure if this is required though)

5. check that the encrypted partition is unlocked and mounted correctly

   /lib/systemd/systemd-cryptsetup attach <target_name> /dev/<device> none luks,fido2-device=auto
   Set cipher aes, mode xts-plain64, key size 256 bits for device /dev/<device>
   Automatically discovered security FIDO2 token unlocks volume.
   Asking FIDO2 token for authentication.
   👆 Please confirm presence on security token to unlock.

6. reboot
7. it fails to unlock the partition
8. the log shows:

   Failed to open FIDO2 device /dev/hidraw5: FIDO_ERR_INTERNAL

   or sometimes

   Failed to open FIDO2 device /dev/hidraw5: FIDO_ERR_RX

   even though the FIDO2 device is plugged into the usb port the whole boot process.

Please include the output of fido2-token -L.

Thank you for the bug report. There is reason to believe this was recently fixed in https://github.com/Yubico/libfido2/commit/9371b41, which is yet unreleased. Would it be possible for you to try libfido2 built from HEAD?

[jean-christophe-manciot]

OK, I'll try, but first, I'd like to test with an older linux version (5.15).

Same issue with 5.15.0-46-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 4 18:03:25 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux.

[jean-christophe-manciot]

I have built 1.11.0-130-g7b7ce2b and the error is gone. Tha's a relief! Thanks. :-)

I will provide the package online for jammy & bookworm soon.

Thank you for testing and for the feedback!
