+ # Machine VM launch threat model
2
+
3
+ ## Claim
4
+
5
+ `vm-launch` and `vm-launch-whpx` prove that two launches of the same measured
6
+ QEMU runtime, Linux kernel, and initramfs reached the same pinned serial success
7
+ signal through generated, closed full-system QEMU invocations. Optional virtual
8
+ devices are minimized: there is no default device set, network, USB, display, or
9
+ monitor. Each receipt binds the plan, complete runtime manifest, executable,
10
+ guest artifacts, and adapter-specific fixed launch policy.
11
+
12
+ The TCG adapter is a machine-VM execution receipt and sets `hardwareBacked` to
13
+ `false`. The separately named WHPX adapter selects only `accel=whpx`, has no TCG
14
+ fallback, and sets `hardwareBacked` to `true` only when two explicit WHPX boots
15
+ succeed with matching observations. This proves use of QEMU's hardware-backed
16
+ Windows Hypervisor Platform adapter for those launches; it does not prove host
17
+ process isolation. QEMU retains the ambient rights of its Windows process in
18
+ both adapters.
19
+
20
+ ## Protected assets and trust boundaries
21
+
22
+ The protected inputs are the declarative plan, the complete caller-owned QEMU
23
+ runtime directory, the guest kernel, and the guest initramfs. Operational paths
24
+ are not part of the plan or receipt. The receipt exposes digests, byte counts,
25
+ bounded launch summaries, coverage, and named residual boundaries.
26
+
27
+ The tracer does not prove:
28
+
29
+ - QEMU, the guest kernel, initramfs, or firmware were built from trusted source;
30
+ - Windows, the CPU, QEMU, or Node.js implemented the measurement correctly;
31
+ - TCG hardware virtualization, or WHPX IOMMU separation, measured boot, Secure
32
+ Boot, TPM, confidential memory, or side-channel resistance;
33
+ - host crash dumps, swap, hibernation, debugger state, or physical custody are
34
+ protected;
35
+ - the guest success program establishes a broader workload security property.
36
+
37
+ Those limitations are machine-readable in `boundaries` and `coverage` rather
38
+ than implied away by a successful boot.
39
+

+ ## Adversary specifications
41
+
42
+ | Adversary action | Required result | Receipt or test evidence |
43
+ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
44
+ | Add a shell command, argument vector, environment field, device, network mode, or unknown plan field | Reject before process launch | `vm-launch-field-unknown`; closed-vocabulary test |
45
+ | Put WHPX in a TCG plan, TCG in a WHPX plan, or request a fallback | Reject rather than downgrade, cross-route, or overclaim | Separate schemas; accelerator/unknown-field tests |
46
+ | Replace any QEMU executable, DLL, firmware file, kernel, or initramfs before measurement | Reject before process launch | Runtime, binary, kernel, and initrd digest mismatch issues |
47
+ | Replace measured files while the launch snapshot is being created | Reject the snapshot | Runtime, kernel, and initrd snapshot mismatch issues |
48
+ | Replace caller-owned files after the first launch | Second launch still uses the same private snapshot | Private-snapshot substitution test |
49
+ | Persistently self-modify the private runtime or guest artifacts during a launch | Reject on post-launch remeasurement | Private-snapshot drift test |
50
+ | Inject QEMU behavior through inherited environment variables or user configuration | Launch with a minimal environment and `-no-user-config` | Generated-argv test |
51
+ | Obtain implicit host devices or a communication channel | Start with `-nodefaults`, `-nic none`, USB off, no display, and no monitor | Generated-argv test |
52
+ | Forge the guest signal, use the wrong exit path, or change adapter diagnostics | Reject the receipt and retain no raw output | Console, exit-code, and diagnostic-digest tests |
53
+ | Make clean launches observably disagree | Reject deterministic coverage | `vm-launch-nondeterministic` |
54
+ | Inject a fake process runner through the public API | Ignore it and execute only the bound process implementation | Public process-runner injection test |
55
+ | Put an operational path or guest output in the receipt | Withhold it; report only digest and byte count | Receipt disclosure assertions |
56
+
57
+ ## Fixed launch policy
58
+
59
+ The plan does not express QEMU arguments. Each implementation generates a q35
60
+ invocation for exactly one bound accelerator (`tcg` or `whpx`) with one CPU,
61
+ 128 MiB, no user configuration, no default devices, no network, no USB, no
62
+ display, no monitor, no reboot, direct kernel boot, serial stdio, and a fixed
63
+ ISA debug-exit device. The TCG adapter pins QEMU's `max` CPU model; the WHPX
64
+ adapter leaves CPU selection to that hardware backend because the TCG model is
65
+ not a valid substitute. The guest command line is fixed and disables trust in
66
+ CPU random seeding. The process has a bounded timeout and output buffer and
67
+ receives only a small host/runtime environment.
68
+
69
+ Exactly two launches are required. The snapshot is remeasured immediately before
70
+ and after each launch. Each launch must exit with the fixed debug-exit status and
71
+ produce the plan-pinned serial digest. TCG must emit zero stderr bytes. WHPX must
72
+ produce the plan-pinned diagnostic digest after removal of only the exact,
73
+ randomized private-executor prefix that QEMU repeats at diagnostic line starts. Raw
74
+ stdout and stderr are never included in the receipt.
75
+
76
+ ## Residual risk and next layer
77
+
78
+ The QEMU runtime closure includes firmware data files and DLLs, so substitution
79
+ changes its digest. Hashing does not establish provenance or measured boot.
80
+ Windows QEMU also cannot disable host crash-dump capture through this contract;
81
+ `host-crash-dump-custody` remains an explicit boundary.
82
+
83
+ QEMU is not yet placed in an AppContainer, restricted token, job-object filesystem
84
+ sandbox, or separate host VM. `virtual-device-minimization` therefore describes
85
+ only the generated guest-facing virtual device surface; it must not be read as
86
+ host-process or physical-device isolation.
87
+
88
+ The next stronger layer must add a separately measured Windows host-process
89
+ sandbox and firmware/measured-boot evidence. It must not reinterpret WHPX
90
+ execution as proof of either property, and it must continue to report IOMMU,
91
+ device-assignment, crash-dump custody, and side-channel boundaries separately.
