From amak at mazda.com.au Tue Nov 13 08:42:24 2018 From: amak at mazda.com.au (Andrew Mak) Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2018 07:42:24 +0000 Subject: [Gpg4win-users-en] Import PGP Keys Message-ID: Hello everyone, I have a question to the list. I generated a key pair on a Unix system using # gpg2 --gen-key We are using this key pair for encryption/decryption, so the key pair is definitely good. I then try to import the key to Windows 10 using Kleopatra. Under GUI, I get the error "EBR error". Under command line, I use the following ..\bin> gpg -verbose -import Gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. Gpg: Total number Processed: 0 C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuPG\bin>gpg --version gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.10 libgcrypt 1.8.3 Copyright (C) 2018 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Under GUI, I get the error "EBR error". The only thing I can think of is that the key is somehow corrupted on export or transfer. My recommendation would be to double check that. How did you export it on linux? For the export command I would recomment the "--armor" option. This encodes the Key as ASCII Text which is more robust then the binary output and you can better see if something is corrupted.

He’s not very technical, and as of current the only part he’s struggling with is searching and importing public keys (at this point, via Kleopatra!). I understand that GpgOL will make use of WKD / WKS to find keys, but is there any way of automatically discovering and retrieving keys from a key-server in the same way? WKD / WKS requires that the recipient owns, controls and has setup WKD / WKS on their domain – something that can’t be done for most people, who use popular free e-mail clients such as Gmail and Outlook.com. If anyone knows how I could set something like this up (or even just an easier way to help him understand), I’d truly appreciate it!

Searching the keyservers via Mail address is a bad idea, you cannot know who uploaded the key and if the key is the right one. > I understand that GpgOL will make use of WKD / WKS to find keys, but is there > any way of automatically discovering and retrieving keys from a key-server > in the same way? As stated above there is no automated way possible for us to get keys for a mail address from the keyservers because anyone can upload keys there and mess with us. > WKD / WKS requires that the recipient owns, controls and has setup WKD / WKS > on their domain – something that can’t be done for most people, who use > popular free e-mail clients such as Gmail and Outlook.com. > If anyone knows how I could set something like this up (or even just an > easier way to help him understand), I’d truly appreciate it! You can add "auto-key-retrieve" into your %APPDATA%\gnupg\gpg.conf that will query the keyservers once a signed mail is received for the key that belongs to the signature (by fingerprint). GpgOL can then use that key. Although it won't use it for "automatically secure" before it has been certified. You could change that by also adding "trust-model tofu+pgp" in your gpg.conf that is still experimental but will be our next step to automate even more.

Alternative to mail, while not losing these security properties would be Matrix (a bit less mature than mail) and XMPP (a bit lacking on user experience because it is hard to chose and configure servers and clients).
