DOCA App Shield

This guide provides instructions on using the DOCA App Shield API.

DOCA App Shield API offers a solution for strong intrusion detection capabilities using the DPU services to collect and analyze data from the host's (or a VM on the host ) memory in real time. This solution provides intrusion detection and forensics investigation in a way that is:

  • Robust against attacks on a host machine

  • Able to detect a wide range of attacks (including zero-day attacks)

  • Least disruptive to the execution of host application (where current detection solutions hinder the performance of host applications)

  • Transparent to the host, such that the host does not need to install anything (other than providing some files obtained from the doca_apsh_config.py tool)

App Shield uses a DMA device to access the host's memory and analyze it.

The App Shield API provides multiple functions that help with gathering data extracted from system's memory (e.g., processes list, modules list, connections). This data helps with detecting attacks on critical services or processes in a system (e.g., services that enforce integrity or privacy of the execution of different applications).

  1. Make sure to run App Shield from the DPU as a root user.

The library requires firmware version 24.32.1010 or higher.

For the library API reference, refer to the DOCA APSH API documentation in the NVIDIA DOCA Library APIs.

Warning

The pkg-config (*.pc file) for the APSH library is included in DOCA's regular definitions (i.e., doca).

The following sections provide additional details about the library API.

Copied!
            

const uint pid = doca_apsh_process_info_get(processes[i], DOCA_APSH_PROCESS_PID); const char *proc_name = doca_apsh_process_info_get(processes[i], DOCA_APSH_PROCESS_COMM);


To use App Shield, users must initialize and configure two main structs. This section presents these structs and explains how to interact with them.

doca_apsh_ctx

doca_apsh_ctx is the basic struct used by App Shield which defines the DMA device used to perform the memory forensics techniques required to run App Shield.

Warning

The same doca_apsh_ctx struct may be used to run multiple App Shield instances over different systems (e.g., two different VMs on the host).

  1. To acquire an instance of the doca_apsh_ctx struct, use the following function:

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    struct doca_apsh_ctx *doca_apsh_create(void);

  2. To configure the doca_apsh_ctx instance with DMA device to use:

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    doca_error_t doca_apsh_dma_dev_set(struct doca_apsh_ctx *ctx, struct doca_dev *dma_dev);

  3. To start the doca_apsh_ctx instance, call the following function:

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    doca_error_t doca_apsh_start(struct doca_apsh_ctx *ctx);

  4. To destroy the doca_apsh_ctx instance when it is no longer needed, call:

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    void doca_apsh_destroy(struct doca_apsh_ctx *ctx);

doca_apsh_system

The doca_apsh_system struct is built on the doca_apsh_ctx instance. This struct is created per system running App Shield. doca_apsh_system defines multiple attributes used by App Shield to perform memory analysis over the specific system successfully.

  1. To acquire an instance of the doca_apsh_system struct, use the following function:

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    const uint pid = doca_apsh_process_info_get(processes[i], DOCA_APSH_PROCESS_PID); const char *proc_name = doca_apsh_process_info_get(processes[i], DOCA_APSH_PROCESS_COMM);

  2. To configure different attributes for the system instance:

    • OS type – specifies the system's OS type.

      Copy
      Copied!
                  

      doca_error_t doca_apsh_sys_os_type_set(struct doca_apsh_system *ctx, enum doca_apsh_system_os os_type);

      Warning

      Currently supported types: Windows or Linux.

    • System representor – specifies the representor of the device connected to the system for App Shield to run on (which can be a representor of VF/PF). For information on querying the DOCA device, refer to the DOCA Core.

      After acquiring the DOCA device, use the following function to configure it into the system instance:

      Copy
      Copied!
                  

      doca_error_t doca_apsh_sys_dev_set(struct doca_apsh_system *system, struct doca_dev_rep *dev);

    • System symbols map – includes information about the OS that App Shield is attempting to run on (e.g., Window 10 Build 18363) and the size and fields of the OS structures, which helps App Shield with the memory forensic techniques it uses to access and analyze these structures in the system's memory. This can be obtained by running the doca_apsh_config.py on the system machine.

      After obtaining it, run:

      Copy
      Copied!
                  

      doca_error_t doca_apsh_sys_os_symbol_map_set(struct doca_apsh_system *system, const char *system_os_symbol_map_path);

    • Memory regions – includes the physical addresses of the memory regions which are mapped for system memory RAM. This is needed to prevent App Shield from accessing other memory regions, such as memory mapped I/O regions. This can be obtained by running the doca_apsh_config.py tool on the system machine.

      After obtaining it, run:

      Copy
      Copied!
                  

      doca_error_t doca_apsh_sys_mem_region_set(struct doca_apsh_system *system, const char *system_mem_region_path);

    • KPGD file (optional and relevant only for Linux OS) – contains the KPGD physical address and the virtual address of init_task. This information is required since App Shield extracts data from the kernel struct in the physical memory. Thus, the kernel page directory table must translate the virtual addresses of these structs. This can be obtained by running the doca_apsh_config.py tool on the system machine with the flag find_kpgd=1. Since setting this attribute is optional, App Shield can work without it, but providing it speeds up App Shield's initialization process.

      After obtaining it, run:

      Copy
      Copied!
                  

      doca_error_t doca_apsh_sys_kpgd_file_set(struct doca_apsh_system *system, const char *system_kpgd_file_path);

  3. To start the doca_apsh_system:

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    doca_error_t doca_apsh_system_start(struct doca_apsh_system *system);

  4. To destroy the doca_apsh_system instance when it is no longer needed, call:

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    void doca_apsh_system_destroy(struct doca_apsh_system *system);

doca_apsh_config.py Tool

The doca_apsh_config.py tool is a python3 script which can be used to obtain all the attributes needed to run doca_apsh_system instance.

The following parameters are necessary to use the tool:

Parameter

Description

pid (optional)

The process ID of the process we want to run attestation capability on

os (mandatory)

The OS type of the machine (i.e., Linux or Windows)

find_kpgd (optional)

Relevant for Linux OS only, AS flag to enable/disable creating kpgd_file.conf. Default 0.

files (mandatory)

A list of files for the tool to create. File options: hash, symbols, memregions, kpgd_file (only relevant for Linux).

Warning

Make sure that the value set is appropriate for your setup.

path (mandatory)

  • Linux – path to the dwarf2json executable. Default ./dwarf2json. This file can be obtained by compiling the following project using Go.

  • Windows – path to pdbparse-to-json.py. Default ./pdbparse-to-json.py. This file can be found here.

Warning

Make sure that the value set is appropriate for your setup.

The tool creates the following files:

  • Symbol map – this file changes once the system kernel is updated or a kernel module is installed. The file does not change on system reboot.

  • Memory regions – this file changes when adding or removing hardware or drivers that affect the system's memory map (e.g., when adding register addresses). The file does not change on system reboot.

  • hash.zip – this file is required for attestation but is unnecessary for all other capabilities. The ZIP file contains the required data to attest to a single process. The file changes on library or executable update.

  • kpgd_file.conf (relevant for Linux OS only) – helps with faster initialization of the library. The file changes on system reboot.

This section provides DOCA App Shield library sample implementations on top of BlueField DPU.
