Oct 20, 2022

Attendees:

  • David Tesar
  • Smir Kakkar
  • Vani Rao

Agenda Items:

  • Alpha4 testing Status - Any blockers or call out ? - Ratify consumes notation as code(depends on notation-go) not via cli. As per ratify’s go,mod they are using alpha1 of notation. For trust-store/trust-policy Ratify should use this function which will default trust store and trust policy location to notation’s location but we should test this with next release of Ratify.
  • Define Beta1 Milestone - Based on the initial discussion as of 10/10/2022, this release will include "verify using TS/TP" + new CLI specs - Tentatively end of this month.
  • notaryproject/notation-go#137 - Close pending discussions.
  • Way forward for RC-1 release. We need to align on the issues list from GITHUB. Fill estimates for task assigned notaryproject/projects/10/views/8
    • Working with Yi on the estimates - Vani / Pritesh
    • Discuss in the community call for all the “-1” which is yet to be estimated. Target RC-1 for 11/15 and call out if any blockers or concerns.
  • “COSE Spec” status - ETA ?
  • Offline/Local Signing experience Finalize next steps and rough estimation.
    • Discussion and alignment on support for “signing with local keys” notaryproject/roadmap#15.
    • Separate the two issues “Content being local” vs “Key being local”. Content being local is not a blocker but key being local is a blocker. notaryproject/roadmap#44 (edited)

Notes:

  • Data versus Developer compatibility
  • Ratify and discussion on do we want people to take dependency on notation-go
  • We will release beta 1 at end of month, not call it alpha 5
  • Try to target getting this PR merged before next dev release on Sunday. notaryproject/notation#343

Notes:

Oct 13, 2022

Attendees:

  • Vani Rao
  • David Tesar
  • Pritesh Bandi

Agenda Items:

  • [User Story] CLI Cmds for Trust Policy Management I remember this US is not in rc.1, suggest to remove this from rc.1. Another suggestion is to add issue of OCI artifact support into rc.1 -- Yi
  • alpha.4 is about to release on Oct 13 PST time. Since COSE Support is now in alpha.4, so Samir may need to update the release note accordingly. -- Yi
  • Updated the status in notation planning board. In short, Shiwei's team will start to work on command implementation according to the updated spec, and this issue Debug option, on which rough estimation al least 3 weeks effort. -- Yi
  • Suggest to review and merge PR 373 rather than PR 370 for "verifying using TS/TP", since the code is already in dev-rc.1 branch with additional changes and already tested in dev-rc.1 branch. Sorry for missing the communication before last holiday week. Now it is just need to be merged back to main branch. -- Yi
  • Added CLI help doc for Alpha.4 in PR 384 and PR 394, need to be reviewed before cutting Alpha.4 (Feynman)
  • Alignment of the issues as part of RC-1 https://github.com/orgs/notaryproject/projects/10/views/8. Estimate for completion. (Pritesh/Vani)
  • Discussion Threat model (Notary + Internal) notaryproject/notation#391 (Pritesh)
  • Notation sign/verify Tag to Digest translation notaryproject/roadmap#61 (Pritesh)
  • Local key signing notaryproject/roadmap#44 (lower priority) (Pritesh/Vani)
  • Documentation - Multiple open issue; ReadME; hello world example
    • Website updation like official binary linking etc
    • Will be get Nate from CNCF?
  • External Security Review ? (Discussion - Pritesh/Vani)

Meeting Minutes:

  • Fine to publish an updated alpha.4 release IF we can get the two CLI help PRs merged today (North America day time). China team will release their daytime 10/14 with those two PRs if merged or not, so 10/14 morning NA time it is released.
  • Ok to add COSE to release notes after release
  • Pritesh added some items to RC-1, briefly reviewed on call and seem reasonable. Some items might have already been in process by Shiwei's team. Need to assign owners where there are none.
  • Need to cleanup RC-1 issues backlog. Many of the issues are closed, for instance COSE support. After this we need to have a sync with Vani/Yi/Samir/David about timelines for alpha.5 and RC-1 as well as trying to get into a more regular and smaller release cadence with a smaller set of scoped user stories which deliver end-user value. This would ideally be out-of-band from community calls.
  • Need to clarify what else we actually need for notary website with RC-1. The RC-1 tagged issues are out of date. Created this "epic" to track in a single place.

  • Walk through rc.1 issue list

Meeting Minutes:

  • Cut the alpha-4 release now with the support for "self signed cert", and for use at KubeCon

    • As soon as alpha-4 is released, we check in PR from Rakesh notaryproject/notation#370 first, and then add any other changes on top
  • In Thursday meeting we can discuss if items from RC-1 can be brought into Alpha-5.
  • Lets rethink the user/system level split It needs to be more simple/clear.
  • Samir/Vani will cut alpha.4 release for notation-go (core-go is done). Yi/Feynman will release notation alpha.4 after dependency update PR merged including latest notation-go with alpha.4 and ideally removing notation-core-go dep if reasonable to easily remove. If notation-core-go dep can't easily be removed, then put into file new issue.

Agenda Items:

  • Sorry for a long agenda item. I did a status update on notation planning board, there are 8 PRs to be reviewed or in-review, and 5 issues pending PR creations. If we spend one week on reviewing one PR in sequential, there will be at least 8+5 weeks, which means 3 months, then it will be next year. Not to mention there will be more PRs to be fired in upcoming weeks. How can we speed up to clean up the PR-review queue? Can we complete the existing 8 PRs by end of Sep? The following PR need to be reviewed and merged ASAP, since there are some refactoring code merged in notation-core-go these days, and the following one is for refactoring in notation-go. (Yi)

Meeting notes

  1. To help with the backlog of PR open for reviews, we need to establish a priortization mechanism. Before the Monday NV2 sync meeting, we must establish that prority list, ideally the friday before. Lets make it a recurring agenda item, and any person waiting on their PR must add it in the list. We also discussed going back to utilizing the Monday evening calls for resolving high-priority PRs with goal to merge during call. PR Review criteria guidance still valid and suggestion for non-critical PRs where we don't necessarily need cross-org review to have same team quickly give two different code reviews so can merge no later than 1 week after approvals. Made a minor suggestion to this guidance in that discussion thread.
  2. Before Alpha-4 is released, need to test notaryproject/notation#320 is now working. We created a new alpha-4 milestone
  3. Vani and Samir will work with Yi and Feyman, on doing the alpha-4 release steps before or during the 9/26/2022 call.
  4. Pen Test and Threat Modeling. Want to do it as part of RC-1, but is this a must have will require further discussion. David proposed it being after RC-1 as COSE already has this testing and it will cause likely significant delays to RC-1.
  5. Ian is going to sync up with David to fix the DCO issue on the minor spec PR. Agreed we should just merge this after that is resolved.

    • Align Notation rc.1 scope(feature level) and target date.
    • The milestones post rc.1, what is the scope and timeline for rc.2, rc.x, 1.0.0 GA release

Notes

  • Our release process needs to be well documented. The current process does not apply to all repos
  • We will do another alpha (or patch) release before RC-1 to include the PRs
  • Milind/Pritesh provided feedback on PRs by Shiwei
  • Shiwei/David: To identify signatures envelope (COSE or JWS) there are two use cases
    • Signature coming from local storage where we don't have the manifest to tell us the signature envelope type
    • Signature being pulled from registry, there we have the "media-type"
    • Additionally, there could different verions of a signature envelope ( e.g. COSE could have multiple formats) Action Item: @shizh / @david to create an issue
      • Pritesh: versioning for a particular signature format be left to the format. Example - JWS does it by using ‘cty' header
  • Action items
    • Samir update the System release (aka roadmap repo) notes for alpha-3 PR with the new version numbering
    • Samir create an issue with third party library

  • Sajay Antony

Agenda Items:

  • Security issue signature verification found by Shiwei
  • Agree on Way forward for issue#268. The proposal is to fix the issue according to existing spec, and then release alpha.3. The reason is updating spec takes time for PR reivew, and COSE support also need to update the spec, so we can wait for COSE implementation to update the spec in upcoming weeks.

Notes

  • Security issue was discussed. Milind will create a PR to address it.
  • We reached a consensus on this issue#268, that is, go ahead releasing alpha.3 with existing spec. Shiwei will create a separate PR based on COSE PR to formally fix both the spec and implementation.
  • Besides the above we did Q&A on the plugin spec.
    • Proposal of changing the payload to digest of payload in the request contract for generating signature. need further discussion.
    • Proposal of changing the response contract for generating signature. We reached a consensus.
    • Millind brought up a discussion, which will be moved to next community call, since this discussion issue will be updated soon.
  • Alpha.3 release is delayed to end of this week, since there is a new issue reported, and some PRs are not merged yet.

Agenda Items:

Notes

  • Multiple PRs are out for review. Milind will propose the draft rules for review of code PRs, where two code reviews and one of the maintainers from "Code-review" group will be required
  • Lets do weekly builds for Notation client, and use the dd-mm-yy or mm-dd-yy format for the release. Lets keep it simple.
  • For anything in the roadmap repo, whoever has it assigned, could they close any duplicates in another repo, and/or link to the roadmap item. Keep the roadmap item open, until we get maintainers to close it. Going forward, roadma repo should only have high level user stories and not granular/implementation items. Refer example here. notaryproject/roadmap#38
  • Alpha-3 discussion . Any items marked for RC-1 which is completed, or will be completed at time of alpha-3, should be included in alpha-3.
  • The existing commands for certiicates CRUD are not compatiable with the new Trust store (directory based) design. For alpha-3, we should not wait on fixing this. Before deciding to include this in RC-1, lets first define the behaviour we want for the Certification CLI command before starting implementation.

Meeting Notes:

  • Verify Spec
  • The rationale of seperating the Notation Specs in Notation repo Vs putting all the specs in notaryproject repo, is to keep Notation specific details with its implementation.
  • System-level directories are required. User-level directories are recommended. The defaults vary based on operating system.
  • id-kp-codeSigning discussion will be continued in next meeting.
  • User expereince should not change after RC-1 is released. Applying this tenet to CLI imply - "The CLI commands and sub options we agree and approve should be the only ones supported in Notation"
  • Milind provied an overview of two PRs he requested for approval/review

    • (Steve) We're hoping to land the COSE format for the initial release, but we've said notary will support multiple signature formats over time, for instance different governments (China has been the common example, but also support for newer over time). If we add multiples now, we validate the spec supports multiples. If we land COSE for v1, we can pull JWT out, knowing the spec supports multiple formats.

Agenda Items:

Notes:

  • Trust policy:

    • Reviewing discussion points from last meeting for scoping
    • Considered but not interested in allowing multiple policies to match, only planning to match a single policy, requiring ordering.
    • Other possible scoping suggestions looked at, but not planned for current development efforts
    • Scope isn't being treated as a security control so they aren't concerned about prefix matching matching the wrong thing. The user controls what images are being matched external to this.
    • In general the current design in extendable for future use.
      1. For now moving with the Longest prefix match and deferring wild card for a later time.
      2. Discussed we can make different trust stores. If the same policy scope has two different artifact type with different signing keys, we can even add an artifact type in the future.
      3. If we need to put rich comments in the JSON files, we could add a "description" field in the future.

  • Discussion on Revocation ()

    1. Refer the paper from Steve on this topic https://stevelasker.blog/2022/01/11/roles-and-responsibilities-of-signing-sboms-and-security-scanners/
    2. When should a key be revoked ( In case of compromise ? Any other reasons ?) a. Ideally a key should not be revoked because a vulnerability is found in the code it signed
    3. When could a signature be revoked on an artifact( In case of a finding a vulnerability ?) https://github.com/notaryproject/notaryproject/blob/main/scenarios.md#scenario-11-revoking-a-signature a. Is there a standard for this? Should we add this in scope for NotaryV2 ?
    4. Some users may not want revocation to automatically hamper their production envoirnement

Notes:

  • Doodle poll concensus: Thursday 9-10am pacific time
  • Trust Policy: can we skip the priority determination and instead accept any matching policy regardless of the order (Brandon)
    • [Pritesh - post meeting] If we go with the longest prefix match order doesn't matter as each and every policy will be evaluated for applicability with a longest-prefix match.
  • Wildcards must be scoped to a dns segment. To avoid SQL injection style attacks, adding a . in the replacement would be considered invalid.
    • [Pritesh - post meeting] That's interesting, we should do thiswith wildcard but we still have a policy ordering issue.
  • There's a desire to limit scope to other signature metadata rather than host/repo. E.g. originator may include metadata on their name to make portable images+signatures. Also some users may want to sign SBOMs or attestation data with a different key than the image, and only trust one key to a certain type of signature. (Brandon)
    • [Pritesh - post meeting] IMO initially, we should keep default notary validations simple and generic. If a user wants complex validation they can implement them using extensions. Or if the use-case becomes popular we can add support later.
  • For regionalized entries, for now, should we defer this, where the user enters multiple trust policies. One for each region, which all point to the same trust store.
  • Consider two levels of wildcards like git, * for a single dns/path element, ** for multiple levels (Brandon)
