@mansect description
The @command{gpg-card} is used to administrate smart cards and USB
tokens. It provides a superset of features from @command{gpg
--card-edit} an can be considered a frontend to @command{scdaemon}
which is a daemon started by @command{gpg-agent} to handle smart
cards.
If @command{gpg-card} is invoked without commands an interactive
mode is used.
If @command{gpg-card} is invoked with one or more commands the
same commands as available in the interactive mode are run from the
command line. These commands need to be delimited with a double-dash.
If a double-dash or a shell specific character is required as part of
a command the entire command needs to be put in quotes. If one of
those commands returns an error the remaining commands are mot anymore
run unless the command was prefixed with a single dash.
A list of commands is available by using the command @code{help} and a
detailed description of each command is printed by using @code{help
COMMAND}.
See the NOTES sections for instructions pertaining to specific cards
or card applications.
@mansect options
@noindent
@command{gpg-card} understands these options:
@table @gnupgtabopt
@item --with-colons
@opindex with-colons
This option has currently no effect.
@item --status-fd @var{n}
@opindex status-fd
Write special status strings to the file descriptor @var{n}. This
program returns only the status messages SUCCESS or FAILURE which are
helpful when the caller uses a double fork approach and can't easily
get the return code of the process.
@item --verbose
@opindex verbose
Enable extra informational output.
@item --quiet
@opindex quiet
Disable almost all informational output.
@item --version
@opindex version
Print version of the program and exit.
@item --help
@opindex help
Display a brief help page and exit.
@item --no-autostart
@opindex no-autostart
Do not start the gpg-agent if it has not yet been started and its
service is required. This option is mostly useful on machines where
the connection to gpg-agent has been redirected to another machines.
@item --agent-program @var{file}
@opindex agent-program
Specify the agent program to be started if none is running. The
default value is determined by running @command{gpgconf} with the
option @option{--list-dirs}.
@item --gpg-program @var{file}
@opindex gpg-program
Specify a non-default gpg binary to be used by certain commands.
@item --gpgsm-program @var{file}
@opindex gpgsm-program
Specify a non-default gpgsm binary to be used by certain commands.
@end table
@mansect notes (OpenPGP)
The support for OpenPGP cards in @command{gpg-card} is not yet
complete. For missing features, please continue to use @code{gpg
--card-edit}.
@mansect notes (PIV)
@noindent
GnuPG has support for PIV cards (``Personal Identity Verification''
as specified by NIST Special Publication 800-73-4). This section
describes how to initialize (personalize) a fresh Yubikey token
featuring the PIV application (requires Yubikey-5). We assume that
the credentials have not yet been changed and thus are:
@table @asis
@item Authentication key
This is a 24 byte key described by the hex string @*
@code{010203040506070801020304050607080102030405060708}.
@item PIV Application PIN
This is the string @code{123456}.
@item PIN Unblocking Key
This is the string @code{12345678}.
@end table
See the example section on how to change these defaults. For
production use it is important to use secure values for them. Note that
the Authentication Key is not queried via the usual Pinentry dialog
but needs to be entered manually or read from a file. The use of a
dedicated machine to personalize tokens is strongly suggested.
To see what is on the card, the command @code{list} can be given. We
will use the interactive mode in the following (the string
@emph{gpg/card>} is the prompt). An example output for a fresh card
is:
@example
gpg/card> list
Reader ...........: 1050:0407:X:0
Card type ........: yubikey
Card firmware ....: 5.1.2
Serial number ....: D2760001240102010006090746250000
Application type .: OpenPGP
Version ..........: 2.1
[...]
@end example
It can be seen by the ``Application type'' line that GnuPG selected
the OpenPGP application of the Yubikey. This is because GnuPG assigns
the highest priority to the OpenPGP application. To use the PIV
application of the Yubikey several methods can be used:
With a Yubikey 5 or later the OpenPGP application on the Yubikey can
be disabled:
@example
gpg/card> yubikey disable all opgp
gpg/card> yubikey list
Application USB NFC
-----------------------
OTP yes yes
U2F yes yes
OPGP no no
PIV yes no
OATH yes yes
FIDO2 yes yes
gpg/card> reset
@end example
The @code{reset} is required so that the GnuPG system rereads the
card. Note that disabled applications keep all their data and can at
any time be re-enabled (use @kbd{help yubikey}).
Another option, which works for all Yubikey versions, is to disable
the support for OpenPGP cards in scdaemon. This is done by adding the
line
@smallexample
disable-application openpgp
@end smallexample
to @file{~/.gnupg/scdaemon.conf} and by restarting scdaemon, either by
killing the process or by using @kbd{gpgconf --kill scdaemon}. Finally
the default order in which card applications are tried by scdaemon can
be changed. For example to prefer PIV over OpenPGP it is sufficient
to add
@smallexample
application-priority piv
@end smallexample
to @file{~/.gnupg/scdaemon.conf} and to restart @command{scdaemon}.
This has an effect only on tokens which support both, PIV and OpenPGP,
but does not hamper the use of OpenPGP only tokens.
With one of these methods employed the @code{list} command of
@command{gpg-card} shows this:
@example
gpg/card> list
Reader ...........: 1050:0407:X:0
Card type ........: yubikey
Card firmware ....: 5.1.2
Serial number ....: FF020001008A77C1
Application type .: PIV
Version ..........: 1.0
Displayed s/n ....: yk-9074625
PIN usage policy .: app-pin
PIN retry counter : - 3 -
PIV authentication: [none]
keyref .....: PIV.9A
Card authenticat. : [none]
keyref .....: PIV.9E
Digital signature : [none]
keyref .....: PIV.9C
Key management ...: [none]
keyref .....: PIV.9D
@end example
In case several tokens are plugged into the computer, gpg-card will
show only one. To show another token the number of the token (0, 1,
2, ...) can be given as an argument to the @code{list} command. The
command @kbd{list --cards} prints a list of all inserted tokens.
Note that the ``Displayed s/n'' is printed on the token and also
shown in Pinentry prompts asking for the PIN. The four standard key
slots are always shown, if other key slots are initialized they are
shown as well. The @emph{PIV authentication} key (internal reference
@emph{PIV.9A}) is used to authenticate the card and the card holder.
The use of the associated private key is protected by the Application
PIN which needs to be provided once and the key can the be used until
the card is reset or removed from the reader or USB port. GnuPG uses
this key with its @emph{Secure Shell} support. The @emph{Card
authentication} key (@emph{PIV.9E}) is also known as the CAK and used
to support physical access applications. The private key is not
protected by a PIN and can thus immediately be used. The @emph{Digital
signature} key (@emph{PIV.9C}) is used to digitally sign documents.
The use of the associated private key is protected by the Application
PIN which needs to be provided for each signing operation. The
@emph{Key management} key (@emph{PIV.9D}) is used for encryption. The
use of the associated private key is protected by the Application PIN
which needs to be provided only once so that decryption operations can
then be done until the card is reset or removed from the reader or USB
port.
We now generate three of the four keys. Note that GnuPG does
currently not use the the @emph{Card authentication} key; however,
that key is mandatory by the PIV standard and thus we create it too.
Key generation requires that we authenticate to the card. This can be
done either on the command line (which would reveal the key):
@example
gpg/card> auth 010203040506070801020304050607080102030405060708
@end example
or by reading the key from a file. That file needs to consist of one
LF terminated line with the hex encoded key (as above):
@example
gpg/card> auth < myauth.key
@end example
As usual @samp{help auth} gives help for this command. An error
message is printed if a non-matching key is used. The authentication
is valid until a reset of the card or until the card is removed from
the reader or the USB port. Note that that in non-interactive mode
the @samp{<} needs to be quoted so that the shell does not interpret
it as a its own redirection symbol.
@noindent
Here are the actual commands to generate the keys:
@example
gpg/card> generate --algo=nistp384 PIV.9A
PIV card no. yk-9074625 detected
gpg/card> generate --algo=nistp256 PIV.9E
PIV card no. yk-9074625 detected
gpg/card> generate --algo=rsa2048 PIV.9C
PIV card no. yk-9074625 detected
@end example
If a key has already been created for one of the slots an error will
be printed; to create a new key anyway the option @samp{--force} can be
used. Note that only the private and public keys have been created
but no certificates are stored in the key slots. In fact, GnuPG uses
its own non-standard method to store just the public key in place of
the the certificate. Other application will not be able to make use
these keys until @command{gpgsm} or another tool has been used to
create and store the respective certificates. Let us see what the
list command now shows:
@example
gpg/card> list
Reader ...........: 1050:0407:X:0
Card type ........: yubikey
Card firmware ....: 5.1.2
Serial number ....: FF020001008A77C1

keyref .....: PIV.9C (sign,cert)
algorithm ..: rsa2048
Key management ...: [none]
keyref .....: PIV.9D
@end example
The primary information for each key is the @emph{keygrip}, a 40 byte
hex-string identifying the key. This keygrip is a unique identifier
for the specific parameters of a key. It is used by
@command{gpg-agent} and other parts of GnuPG to associate a private
key to its protocol specific certificate format (X.509, OpenPGP, or
SecureShell). Below the keygrip the key reference along with the key
usage capabilities are show. Finally the algorithm is printed in the
format used by @command {gpg}. At that point no other information is
shown because for these new keys gpg won't be able to find matching
certificates.
Although we could have created the @emph{Key management} key also with
the generate command, we will create that key off-card so that a
backup exists. To accomplish this a key needs to be created with
either @command{gpg} or @command{gpgsm} or imported in one of these
tools. In our example we create a self-signed X.509 certificate (exit
the gpg-card tool, first):
@example
$ gpgsm --gen-key -o encr.crt
(1) RSA
(2) Existing key
(3) Existing key from card
Your selection? 1
What keysize do you want? (3072) 2048
Requested keysize is 2048 bits
Possible actions for a RSA key:

Enter the X.509 subject name: CN=Encryption key for yk-9074625,O=example,C=DE
Enter email addresses (end with an empty line):
> otto@@example.net
>
Enter DNS names (optional; end with an empty line):
>
Enter URIs (optional; end with an empty line):

These parameters are used:
Key-Type: RSA
Key-Length: 2048
Key-Usage: encrypt
Serial: random
Name-DN: CN=Encryption key for yk-9074625,O=example,C=DE
Name-Email: otto@@example.net
Proceed with creation? (y/N)
Now creating self-signed certificate. This may take a while ...
gpgsm: about to sign the certificate for key: &34798AAFE0A7565088101CC4AE31C5C8C74461CB
gpgsm: certificate created
Ready.
$ gpgsm --import encr.crt
gpgsm: certificate imported
gpgsm: total number processed: 1
gpgsm: imported: 1
@end example
Note the last step which imported the created certificate. If you
you instead created a certificate signing request (CSR) instead of a
self-signed certificate and sent this off to a CA you would do the
same import step with the certificate received from the CA. Take note
of the keygrip (prefixed with an ampersand) as shown during the
certificate creation or listed it again using @samp{gpgsm
--with-keygrip -k otto@@example.net}. Now to move the key and
certificate to the card start @command{gpg-card} again and enter:
@example
gpg/card> writekey PIV.9D 34798AAFE0A7565088101CC4AE31C5C8C74461CB
gpg/card> writecert PIV.9D < encr.crt
@end example
If you entered a passphrase to protect the private key, you will be
asked for it via the Pinentry prompt. On success the key and the
certificate has been written to the card and a @code{list} command
shows:
@example
[...]
Key management ...: 34798AAFE0A7565088101CC4AE31C5C8C74461CB
keyref .....: PIV.9D (encr)
algorithm ..: rsa2048
used for ...: X.509
user id ..: CN=Encryption key for yk-9074625,O=example,C=DE
user id ..: <otto@@example.net>
@end example
In case the same key (identified by the keygrip) has been used for
several certificates you will see several ``used for'' parts. With
this the encryption key is now fully functional and can be used to
decrypt messages encrypted to this certificate. @sc{Take care:} the
original key is still stored on-disk and should be moved to a backup
medium. This can simply be done by copying the file
@file{34798AAFE0A7565088101CC4AE31C5C8C74461CB.key} from the directory
@file{~/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d/} to the backup medium and deleting
the file at its original place.
The final example is to create a self-signed certificate for digital
signatures. Leave @command{gpg-card} using @code{quit} or by pressing
Control-D and use gpgsm:
@example
$ gpgsm --learn
$ gpgsm --gen-key -o sign.crt

@end example
The use of @samp{gpgsm --learn} is currently necessary so that
gpg-agent knows what keys are available on the card. The need for
this command will eventually be removed. The remaining commands are
similar to the creation of an on-disk key. However, here we select
the @samp{Digital signature} key. During the creation process you
will be asked for the Application PIN of the card. The final step is
to write the certificate to the card using @command{gpg-card}:
@example
gpg/card> writecert PIV.9C < sign.crt
@end example
By running list again we will see the fully initialized card:
@example

@end example
It is now possible to sign and to encrypt with this card using gpgsm
and to use the @samp{PIV authentication} key with ssh:
@example
$ ssh-add -l
384 SHA256:0qnJ0Y0ehWxKcx2frLfEljf6GCdlO55OZed5HqGHsaU cardno:yk-9074625 (ECDSA)
@end example
As usual use ssh-add with the uppercase @samp{-L} to list the public
ssh key. To use the certificates with Thunderbird or Mozilla, please
consult the Scute manual for details.
If you want to use the same PIV keys also for OpenPGP (for example on
a Yubikey to avoid switching between OpenPGP and PIV), this is also
possible:
@example
$ gpgsm --learn
$ gpg --full-gen-key
