Description
Feature Overview
Only add hashes to the DBX if the hash is authorized by a CA in the DB in order to conserve space
Make this an optional field that can be used if something like "--necessary-dbx-entries-only" or something else that makes sense
Solution Overview
Given that in the latest dbx json file (for example, dbx_info_msft_06_10_25.json) that the json field has an "Authority" field
{
"authenticodeHash": "80B4D96931BF0D02FD91A61E19D14F1DA452E66DB2408CA8604D411F92659F0A",
"hashType": "SHA256",
"flatHash": "",
"filename": "shim.efi",
"description": "",
"companyName": "Unknown",
"dateOfAddition": "2018-04-01",
"signingAuthority": "CN = Microsoft Corporation UEFI CA 2011"
}And we can map these "signingAuthority" fields to a CA in the DB section in the toml file via its subject name
PreSignedObjects/DB/Certificates/MicCorUEFCA2011_2011-06-27.der: "CN = Microsoft Corporation UEFI CA 2011"
PreSignedObjects/DB/Certificates/MicWinProPCA2011_2011-10-19.der: "CN = Microsoft Windows Production PCA 2011"
update secure_boot_default_keys.py to only add hashes that are authorized by one of the DB CAs to the DBX to conserve space
