Python Rekor Signed Artifact Verification Script

Overview

In software development, artifact signing is a method to help increase the security of the software by associating an artifact with the person who uploaded it.

Sigstore is a tool that simplifies the signing of artifacts by signing it and uploading the signature details to Rekor, an append-only log, so that other users are able to verify the integrity of the artifact.

This script contains functions for interacting with the Rekor logs, such as verifying the inclusion of an artifact in the logs.

Usage

Prior to using this script, an artifact is signed using a tool like cosign. For example:

cosign sign-blob <artifact> --bundle artifact.bundle

The generated .bundle file will contain details about the signing, such as the log entry that was appended to Rekor as well as the log ID.

Once you have an artifact that has been signed, you can use this script to do the following:

Verify the inclusion of the artifact in Rekor

python main.py --inclusion <logIndex> --artifact <artifact>

Fetch the latest log entry in Rekor

python main.py -c

Verify the consistency of a log entry with the latest Rekor log entry

In order to perform consistency verification, you'll need the following details of the log entry that you want to verify its consistency: treeId, treeSize, and rootHash. You can query the Rekor API for your log entry to obtain these details. Once obtained, the following command will perform the consistency verification:

python main.py --consistency --tree-id <treeId> --tree-size <treeSize> --root-hash <rootHash>
