Secure isolation MUST block all potential mechanisms by which kernel or userspace code might access the internal state of the isolated environment, including DMA. The upstream Android Open Source Project (AOSP) meets this requirement by using the Trusty implementation, but another ARM TrustZone-based solution or a third-party reviewed secure implementation of a proper hypervisor-based isolation are alternative options.

  • 9.11.1 Secure Lock Screen, Authentication, and Virtual Devices : Added requirements section for virtual devices and authentication transfers.

    • [C-9-1] MUST lock these secondary virtual display(s) when the device's default display is locked, and unlock these secondary virtual display(s) when the device's default display is unlocked.

    • [C-10-7] MUST use a separate clipboard solely for each virtual device (or disable the clipboard for virtual devices)
    • [C-10-11] MUST disable authentication UI on virtual devices, including knowledge factor entry and biometric prompt
    • [C-10-12] MUST restrict intents initiated from a virtual device to display only on the same virtual device
    • [C-10-13] MUST not use a virtual device lock state as user authentication authorization with the Android Keystore System. See KeyGenParameterSpec.Builder.setUserAuthentication* .

    When device implementations allow the user to transfer the primary authentication knowledge-factor from a source device to a target device, such as for initial setup of the target device, they:

    • [C-11-1] MUST encrypt the knowledge-factor with protection guarantees similar to those described in the Google Cloud Key Vault Service security whitepaper when transferring the knowledge-factor from the source device to the target device such that the knowledge-factor cannot be remotely decrypted or used to remotely unlock either device.
    • [C-11-2] MUST, on the source device , ask the user to confirm the knowledge-factor of the source device before transferring the knowledge-factor to the target device.
    • [C-11-3] MUST, on a target device lacking any set primary authentication knowledge-factor, ask the user to confirm a transferred knowledge-factor on the target device before setting that knowledge-factor as the primary authentication knowledge-factor for the target device and before making available any data transferred from a source device.

    If device implementations have a secure lock screen and include one or more trust agents, which call the TrustAgentService.grantTrust() System API with the FLAG_GRANT_TRUST_TEMPORARY_AND_RENEWABLE flag they:

    • [C-12-1] MUST only call grantTrust() with the flag when connected to a proximate physical device with a lockscreen of its own, and when the user has authenticated their identity against that lockscreen. Proximate devices can use on-wrist or on-body detection mechanisms after a one-time user unlock to satisfy the user authentication requirement.
    • [C-12-2] MUST put the device implementation into the TrustState.TRUSTABLE state when the screen is turned off (such as via a button press or display time out) and the TrustAgent has not revoked trust. The AOSP satisfies this requirement.
    • [C-12-3] MUST only move the device from TrustState.TRUSTABLE to the TrustState.TRUSTED state if the TrustAgent is still granting trust based on the requirements in C-12-1.
    • [C-12-4] MUST call TrustManagerService.revokeTrust() after a maximum of 24 hours from granting trust, an 8 hour idle window, or when the underlying connection to the proximate physical device is lost.

    If device implementations allow applications to create secondary virtual displays and support associated input events such as via VirtualDeviceManager and the displays are not marked with VIRTUAL_DISPLAY_FLAG_SECURE, they:

    • [C-13-8] MUST block activities with the attribute android:canDisplayOnRemoteDevices or the meta-data android.activity.can_display_on_remote_devices set to false from being started on the virtualdevice.
    • [C-13-9] MUST block activities which do not explicitly enable streaming and which indicate they show sensitive content, including via SurfaceView#setSecure, FLAG_SECURE, or SYSTEM_FLAG_HIDE_NON_SYSTEM_OVERLAY_WINDOWS, from being started on the virtual device.
    • [C-13-10] MUST disable installation of apps initiated from virtual devices.

  • 9.11.2 Strongbox : Making insider attack resistance (IAR) a necessary requirement.

    See revision

    To validate compliance with [C-1-3] through [C-1-9], device implementations:

    • [C-SR] are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to provide insider attack resistance (IAR), which means that an insider with access to firmware signing keys cannot produce firmware that causes the StrongBox to leak secrets, to bypass functional security requirements or otherwise enable access to sensitive user data. The recommended way to implement IAR is to allow firmware updates only when the primary user password is provided via the IAuthSecret HAL. IAR will become a MUST requirement in Android 14 (AOSP experimental).

  • 9.11.3 Identity Credential : Added information about the Identity Credential system reference implementation.

    See revision

    If the device implements support for the Android Virtualization Framework APIs ( android.system.virtualmachine.* ), then the hypervisor:

    • [C-3-1] MUST NOT allow any pVM to have access to a page belonging to another entity (ie other pVM or hypervisor), unless explicitly shared by the page owner. This includes the host VM. This applies to both CPU and DMA accesses.
    • [C-3-2] MUST wipe a page after it is used by a VM and before it is returned to the host (eg the pVM is destroyed).
    • [C-3-3] MUST ensure that the pVM firmware is loaded and executed prior to any code in a pVM.
    • [C-3-4] MUST ensure that BCC and CDIs provided to a pVM instance can only be derived by that particular instance.

    If the device implements support for the Android Virtualization Framework APIs, then across all areas:

    • [C-4-1] MUST NOT provide functionality to a pVM that allows bypassing the Android Security Model.

    If the device implements support for the Android Virtualization Framework APIs, then:

    • [C-5-1] MUST support Isolated Compilation of an ART runtime update.

    If the device implements support for the Android Virtualization Framework APIs, then for Key Management:

    • [C-6-1] MUST root DICE chain at a point that the user cannot modify, even on unlocked devices. (To ensure it cannot be spoofed).
    • [C-6-2] MUST do DICE properly ie provide the correct values. But it might not have to go to that level of detail.
