Smart Card Tool
***************

GnuPG comes with a tool to administrate smart cards and USB tokens. This tool is an enhanced version of the --edit-key command available with gpg.

gpg-card.1

Administrate smart cards.
=========================

synopsis

description
The gpg-card is used to administrate smart cards and USB tokens.  It provides a superset of features from gpg --card-edit an can be considered a frontend to scdaemon which is a daemon started by gpg-agent to handle smart cards.

If gpg-card is invoked without commands an interactive mode is used.

If 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 not anymore run unless the command was prefixed with a single dash.

A list of commands is available by using the command help and a brief description of each command is printed by using help CMD. See the section COMMANDS for a full description.

See the NOTES sections for instructions pertaining to specific cards or card applications.

options

gpg-card understands these options:

--with-colons
     This option has currently no effect.

--status-fd N
     Write special status strings to the file descriptor 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.

--verbose
     Enable extra informational output.

--quiet
     Disable almost all informational output.

--version
     Print version of the program and exit.

--help
     Display a brief help page and exit.

--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.

--no-history
     In interactive mode the command line history is usually saved and restored to and from a file below the GnuPG home directory.  This option inhibits the use of that file.

--agent-program FILE
     Specify the agent program to be started if none is running.  The default value is determined by running gpgconf with the option --list-dirs.

--gpg-program FILE
     Specify a non-default gpg binary to be used by certain commands.

--gpgsm-program FILE
     Specify a non-default gpgsm binary to be used by certain commands.

--chuid UID
     Change the current user to UID which may either be a number or a name.  This can be used from the root account to run gpg-card for another user.  If UID is not the current UID a standard PATH is set and the envvar GNUPGHOME is unset.  To override the latter the option --homedir can be used.  This option has only an effect when used on the command line.  This option has currently no effect at all on Windows.

commands

gpg-card understands the following commands, which have options of their own.  The pseudo-option -- can be used to separate command options from arguments; if this pseudo option is used on the command line the entire command with options and arguments must be quoted, so that it is not mixed up with the -- as used on the command line to separate commands.  Note that a short online help is available for all commands by prefixing them with ``help''. Command completion in the interactive mode is also supported.

AUTHENTICATE [--setkey] [--raw] [< FILE]|KEY]
AUTH
     Authenticate to the card.  Perform a mutual authentication either by reading the key from FILE or by taking it from the command line as KEY.  Without the option --raw the key is expected to be hex encoded.  To install a new administration key --setkey is used; this requires a prior authentication with the old key.  This is used with PIV cards.

CAFPR [--clear] N
     Change the CA fingerprint number N of an OpenPGP card.  N must be in the range 1 to 3.  The option --clear clears the specified CA fingerprint N or all of them if N is 0 or not given.

FACTORY-RESET
     Do a complete reset of some OpenPGP and PIV cards.  This command deletes all data and keys and resets the PINs to their default.  Don't worry, you need to confirm before the command proceeds.

FETCH
     Retrieve a key using the URL data object of an OpenPGP card or if that is missing using the stored fingerprint.

FORCESIG
     Toggle the forcesig flag of an OpenPGP card.

GENERATE [--force] [--algo=ALGO{+ALGO2}] KEYREF
     Create a new key on a card.  Use --force to overwrite an existing key.  Use "help" for ALGO to get a list of known algorithms.  For OpenPGP cards several algos may be given.  Note that the OpenPGP key generation is done interactively unless --algo or KEYREF are given.

KDF-SETUP
     Prepare the OpenPGP card KDF feature for this card.

LANG [--clear]
     Change the language info for the card.  This info can be used by applications for a personalized greeting.  Up to 4 two-digit language identifiers can be entered as a preference.  The option --clear removes all identifiers.  GnuPG does not use this info.

LIST [--cards] [--apps] [--info] [--no-key-lookup] [N] [APP]
L
     This command reads all information from the current card and display them in a human readable format.  The first section shows generic information vaialable for all cards.  The next section shows information pertaining to keys which depend on the actual card and application.

     With N given select and list the n-th card; with APP also given select that application. To select an APP on the current card use "-" for N. The serial number of the card may be used instead of N.

     The option --cards lists the serial numbers of available cards.  The option --apps lists all card applications.  The option --info selects a card and prints its serial number. The option --no-key-lookup suppresses the listing of matching OpenPGP or X.509 keys.

LOGIN [--clear] [< FILE]
     Set the login data object of OpenPGP cards.  If FILE is given the data is is read from that file.  This allows one to store binary data in the login field.  The option --clear deletes the login data object.

NAME [--clear]
     Set the name field of an OpenPGP card.  With option --clear the stored name is cleared off the card.

PASSWD [--reset|--nullpin] [PINREF]
     Change or unblock the PINs.  Note that in interactive mode and without a PINREF a menu is presented for certain cards."  In non-interactive mode and without a PINREF a default value i used for these cards.  The option --reset is used with TCOS cards to reset the PIN using the PUK or vice versa; the option --NULLPIN is used for these cards to set the initial PIN.

PRIVATEDO [--clear] N [< FILE]
     Change the private data object N of an OpenPGP card.  N must be in the range 1 to 4.  If FILE is given the data is is read from that file.  The option --clear clears the data.

QUIT
Q
     Stop processing and terminate gpg-card.

READCERT [--openpgp] CERTREF > FILE
     Read the certificate for key CERTREF and store it in FILE. With option --openpgp an OpenPGP keyblock wrapped in a dedicated CMS content type (OID=1.3.6.1.4.1.11591.2.3.1) is expected and extracted to FILE.  Note that for current OpenPGP cards a certificate may only be available at the CERTREF "OPENPGP.3".

RESET
     Send a reset to the card daemon.

SALUTATION [--clear]
SALUT
     Change the salutation info for the card.  This info can be used by applications for a personalized greeting.  The option --clear removes this data object.  GnuPG does not use this info.

UIF N [on|off|permanent]
     Change the User Interaction Flag.  That flags tells whether the confirmation button of a token shall be used.  N must in the range 1 to 3.  "permanent" is the same as "on" but the flag can't be changed anymore.

UNBLOCK
     Unblock a PIN using a PUK or Reset Code.  Note that OpenPGP cards prior to version 2 can't use this; instead the PASSWD can be used to set a new PIN.

URL [--clear]
     Set the URL data object of an OpenPGP card.  That data object can be used by by gpg's --fetch command to retrieve the full public key.  The option --clear deletes the content of that data object.

VERIFY [CHVID]
     Verify the PIN identified by CHVID or the default PIN.

WRITECERT CERTREF  < FILE
WRITECERT --openpgp CERTREF [< FILE|FPR]
WRITECERT --clear CERTREF
     Write a certificate to the card under the id CERTREF.  The option --clear removes the certificate from the card.  The option --openpgp expects an OpenPGP keyblock and stores it encapsulated in a CMS container; the keyblock is taken from FILE or directly from the OpenPGP key identified by fingerprint FPR.

WRITEKEY [--force] KEYREF KEYGRIP
     Write a private key object identified by KEYGRIP to the card under the id KEYREF.  Option --force allows overwriting an existing key.

CHECKKEYS [--ondisk] [--delete-clear-copy] [--delete-protected-copy]
     Print a list of keys noticed on all inserted cards.  With --ondisk only smartcard keys with a copy on disk are listed. With --delete-clear-copy copies of smartcard keys stored on disk without any protection will be deleted.  With --delete-protected-copy password protected copies of smartcard keys stored on disk will be deleted.

     This command creates missing shadow keys.  The delete options print the status of the keys before they are deleted.

     The format of the output is:

     Serial number
          A hex-string with the serial number of the card.

     Type
          This gives the type of the card's application.  For example "OpenPGP" or "PIV".

     Keygrip
          A hex-string identifying a key.

     Keyref
          The application slot where the key is stored on the card.  For example "OpenPGP.1"

     Status
          The status of the key.  The most common value is "shadowed" for a key where only the public key along with the card's serial number is stored on the disk.  The value "clear" indicates that a copy of the card's key is stored unprotected on disk.  The value "protected" indicated that a copy of the car's key is stored on disk but is protected by a password.  The value "error" may also be shown if there was a problem reading information from the card.

YUBIKEY CMD ARGS
     Various commands pertaining to Yubikey tokens with CMD being:

     LIST
          List supported and enabled Yubikey applications.

     ENABLE  usb|nfc|all [otp|u2f|opgp|piv|oath|fido2|all]
     DISABLE
          Enable or disable the specified or all applications on the given interface.

notes (OpenPGP)
The support for OpenPGP cards in gpg-card is not yet complete.  For missing features, please continue to use gpg --card-edit.

notes (PIV)

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:

Authentication key
     This is a 24 byte key described by the hex string

     010203040506070801020304050607080102030405060708.

PIV Application PIN
     This is the string 123456.

PIN Unblocking Key
     This is the string 12345678.

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 list can be given.  We will use the interactive mode in the following (the string gpg/card> is the prompt).  An example output for a fresh card is:

     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
     [...]

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:

     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

The 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 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

     disable-application openpgp

to ~/.gnupg/scdaemon.conf and by restarting scdaemon, either by killing the process or by using 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

     application-priority piv

to ~/.gnupg/scdaemon.conf and to restart 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 list command of gpg-card shows this:

     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

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 list command.  The command 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 PIV authentication key (internal reference 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 Secure Shell support.  The Card authentication key (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 Digital signature key (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 Key management key (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 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):

     gpg/card> auth 010203040506070801020304050607080102030405060708

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):

     gpg/card> auth < myauth.key

As usual 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 < needs to be quoted so that the shell does not interpret it as a its own redirection symbol.

Here are the actual commands to generate the keys:

     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

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 --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 certificate.  Other application will not be able to make use these keys until gpgsm or another tool has been used to create and store the respective certificates.   Let us see what the list command now shows:

     gpg/card> list
     Reader ...........: 1050:0407:X:0
     Card type ........: yubikey
     Card firmware ....: 5.1.2

     Application type .: PIV
     Version ..........: 1.0

           algorithm ..: rsa2048
     Key management ...: [none]
           keyref .....: PIV.9D

The primary information for each key is the 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 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 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 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 gpg or 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):

     $ 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:
        (1) sign, encrypt
        (2) sign
        (3) encrypt
     Your selection? 3
     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):
     >
     Create self-signed certificate? (y/N) y
     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

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 gpgsm --with-keygrip -k otto@example.net.  Now to move the key and certificate to the card start gpg-card again and enter:

     gpg/card> writekey PIV.9D 34798AAFE0A7565088101CC4AE31C5C8C74461CB
     gpg/card> writecert PIV.9D < encr.crt

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 list command shows:

     [...]
     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>

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.  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 34798AAFE0A7565088101CC4AE31C5C8C74461CB.key from the directory ~/.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 gpg-card using quit or by pressing Control-D and use gpgsm:

     $ gpgsm --learn
     $ gpgsm --gen-key -o sign.crt
     Please select what kind of key you want:
        (1) RSA
        (2) Existing key
        (3) Existing key from card

     Create self-signed certificate? (y/N)
     These parameters are used:
         Key-Type: card:PIV.9C
         Key-Length: 1024
         Key-Usage: sign
         Serial: random
         Name-DN: CN=Signing key for yk-9074625,O=example,C=DE
         Name-Email: otto@example.net

     Proceed with creation? (y/N) y
     Now creating self-signed certificate.  This may take a while ...
     gpgsm: about to sign the certificate for key: &32A6C6FAFCB8421878608AAB452D5470DD3223ED
     gpgsm: certificate created
     Ready.
     $ gpgsm --import sign.crt
     gpgsm: certificate imported
     gpgsm: total number processed: 1
     gpgsm:               imported: 1

The use of 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 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 gpg-card:

     gpg/card> writecert PIV.9C < sign.crt

By running list again we will see the fully initialized card:

It is now possible to sign and to encrypt with this card using gpgsm and to use the PIV authentication key with ssh:

     $ ssh-add -l
     384 SHA256:0qnJ0Y0ehWxKcx2frLfEljf6GCdlO55OZed5HqGHsaU cardno:yk-9074625 (ECDSA)

As usual use ssh-add with the uppercase -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:

     $ gpgsm --learn
     $ gpg --full-gen-key
     Please select what kind of key you want:
        (1) RSA and RSA (default)
        (2) DSA and Elgamal
        (3) DSA (sign only)

     GnuPG needs to construct a user ID to identify your key.

     Real name:
     Email address: otto@example.net
     Comment:
     You selected this USER-ID:
         "otto@example.net"

     public and secret key created and signed.

     Note that this key cannot be used for encryption.  You may want to use
     the command "--edit-key" to generate a subkey for this purpose.
     pub   rsa2048 2019-04-04 [SC]
           7F899AE2FB73159DD68A1B20C3AFA9ED971BB365
     uid                      otto@example.net

Note that you will be asked two times to enter the PIN of your PIV card.  If you run gpg in --expert mode you will also ge given the option to change the usage flags of the key.  The next typescript shows how to add the encryption subkey:

     $ gpg --edit-key 7F899AE2FB73159DD68A1B20C3AFA9ED971BB365
     Secret key is available.
