Alisdair McDiarmid a5b3d497cc internal: Verify provider signatures on install ... Providers installed from the registry are accompanied by a list of checksums (the "SHA256SUMS" file), which is cryptographically signed to allow package authentication. The process of verifying this has multiple steps: - First we must verify that the SHA256 hash of the package archive matches the expected hash. This could be done for local installations too, in the future. - Next we ensure that the expected hash returned as part of the registry API response matches an entry in the checksum list. - Finally we verify the cryptographic signature of the checksum list, using the public keys provided by the registry. Each of these steps is implemented as a separate PackageAuthentication type. The local archive installation mechanism uses only the archive checksum authenticator, and the HTTP installation uses all three in the order given. The package authentication system now also returns a result value, which is used by command/init to display the result of the authentication process. There are three tiers of signature, each of which is presented differently to the user: - Signatures from the embedded HashiCorp public key indicate that the provider is officially supported by HashiCorp; - If the signing key is not from HashiCorp, it may have an associated trust signature, which indicates that the provider is from one of HashiCorp's trusted partners; - Otherwise, if the signature is valid, this is a community provider.		2020-04-17 13:57:19 -04:00
