Description

Private data query method and device based on intelligent contract

Technical Field

One or more embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of blockchain technologies, and in particular, to a private data query method and apparatus based on an intelligent contract.

Background

The blockchain technique is built on top of a transport network, such as a point-to-point network. Network nodes in a transport network utilize a chained data structure to validate and store data and employ a distributed node consensus algorithm to generate and update data.

The two biggest challenges in the current enterprise-level blockchain platform technology are privacy and performance, which are often difficult to solve simultaneously. Most solutions trade privacy for loss of performance or do not consider privacy much to pursue performance. Common encryption technologies for solving privacy problems, such as Homomorphic encryption (Homomorphic encryption) and Zero-knowledge proof (Zero-knowledge proof), have high complexity and poor universality, and may cause serious performance loss.

Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) is another way to address privacy concerns. The TEE can play a role of a black box in hardware, a code and data operating system layer executed in the TEE cannot be peeped, and the TEE can be operated only through an interface defined in advance in the code. In the aspect of efficiency, due to the black box property of the TEE, plaintext data is operated in the TEE instead of complex cryptography operation in homomorphic encryption, and the efficiency of the calculation process is not lost, so that the safety and privacy of a block chain can be improved to a great extent on the premise of small performance loss by combining with the TEE. The industry is concerned with TEE solutions, and almost all mainstream chip and Software consortiums have their own TEE solutions, including Software-oriented TPM (Trusted Platform Module) and hardware-oriented Intel SGX (Software Guard Extensions), ARM Trustzone (Trusted zone), and AMD PSP (Platform Security Processor).

Detailed Description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with one or more embodiments of the present specification. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of one or more embodiments of the specification, as detailed in the claims which follow.

It should be noted that: in other embodiments, the steps of the corresponding methods are not necessarily performed in the order shown and described herein. In some other embodiments, the method may include more or fewer steps than those described herein. Moreover, a single step described in this specification may be broken down into multiple steps for description in other embodiments; multiple steps described in this specification may be combined into a single step in other embodiments.

Blockchains are generally divided into three types: public chain (Public Blockchain), private chain (PrivateBlockchain) and alliance chain (Consortium Blockchain). In addition, there are various types of combinations, such as private chain + federation chain, federation chain + public chain, and other different combinations. The most decentralized of these is the public chain. The public chain is represented by bitcoin and ether house, and the participators joining the public chain can read the data record on the chain, participate in transaction, compete for accounting right of new blocks, and the like. Furthermore, each participant (i.e., node) is free to join and leave the network and perform related operations. Private chains are the opposite, with the network's write rights controlled by an organization or organization and the data read rights specified by the organization. Briefly, a private chain can be a weakly centralized system with strictly limited and few participating nodes. This type of blockchain is more suitable for use within a particular establishment. A federation chain is a block chain between a public chain and a private chain, and "partial decentralization" can be achieved. Each node in a federation chain typically has a physical organization or organization corresponding to it; participants jointly maintain blockchain operation by authorizing to join the network and forming a benefit-related alliance.

Whether public, private, or alliance, may provide the functionality of an intelligent contract. An intelligent contract on a blockchain is a contract that can be executed on a blockchain system triggered by a transaction. An intelligent contract may be defined in the form of code.

Taking the ethernet as an example, the support user creates and invokes some complex logic in the ethernet network, which is the biggest challenge of ethernet to distinguish from bitcoin blockchain technology. The core of the ethernet plant as a programmable blockchain is the ethernet plant virtual machine (EVM), each ethernet plant node can run the EVM. The EVM is a well-behaved virtual machine, which means that a variety of complex logic can be implemented through it. The user issuing and invoking smart contracts in the etherhouse is running on the EVM. In fact, what the virtual machine directly runs is virtual machine code (virtual machine bytecode, hereinafter referred to as "bytecode"). The intelligent contracts deployed on the blockchain may be in the form of bytecodes.

For example, as shown in fig. 1, after Bob sends a transaction containing information to create an intelligent contract to the ethernet network, the EVM of node 1 may execute the transaction and generate a corresponding contract instance. The "0 x6f8ae93 …" in fig. 1 represents the address of the contract, the data field of the transaction holds the byte code, and the to field of the transaction is empty. After agreement is reached between the nodes through the consensus mechanism, this contract is successfully created and can be invoked in subsequent procedures. After the contract is created, a contract account corresponding to the intelligent contract appears on the blockchain and has a specific address, and the contract code is stored in the contract account. The behavior of the intelligent contract is controlled by the contract code. In other words, an intelligent contract causes a virtual account to be generated on a blockchain that contains a contract code and an account store (Storage).

As shown in fig. 2, still taking an ethernet house as an example, after Bob sends a transaction for invoking an intelligent contract to the ethernet house network, the EVM of a certain node may execute the transaction and generate a corresponding contract instance. The from field of the transaction in fig. 2 is the address of the account of the transaction initiator (i.e., Bob), the "0 x6f8ae93 …" in the to field represents the address of the smart contract called, and the value field is the value of tai-currency in the etherhouse, and the data field of the transaction holds the method and parameters for calling the smart contract. The intelligent contract is independently executed at each node in the blockchain network in a specified mode, and all execution records and data are stored on the blockchain, so that after the transaction is completed, transaction certificates which cannot be tampered and cannot be lost are stored on the blockchain.

After executing Bob-initiated transaction, a node in the blockchain network generates corresponding receipt (receipt) data for recording receipt information related to the transaction. In this way, information regarding the results of the execution of the transaction may be obtained by querying the receipt of the transaction. Taking the ether house as an example, the receipt data obtained by the node executing the transaction may include the following:

a Result field indicating the execution Result of the transaction;

a Gas used field representing a Gas value consumed by the transaction;

a Logs field for representing a Log generated by the transaction, wherein the Log may further comprise a From field for representing an account address of an initiator of the call, a To field for representing an account address of an object (such as a smart contract) To be called, a Topic field for representing a subject of the Log, a Log data field for representing Log data, and the like;

an Output field, representing the Output of the transaction.

Generally, receipt data generated after a transaction is executed is stored in a clear text form, so that anyone can see the contents of the receipt fields contained in the receipt data, and the setting and the capability of privacy protection are not provided. In some combined blockchain and TEE solutions, the entire content of the receipt data is stored on the blockchain as data requiring privacy protection in order to achieve privacy protection. The block chain is a data set organized by specific logics stored in a database of nodes. The physical carrier of the database, as described later, may be a storage medium, such as a persistent storage medium. In fact, only part of the receipt data may be sensitive, while other content is not sensitive, only privacy protection is required for the sensitive content, other content can be disclosed, and even in some cases, retrieval of part of the content may be required to drive implementation of relevant operations, and then implementing privacy protection for the part of the content will affect implementation of the retrieval operations.

The process of protecting the privacy of the user may be as shown in fig. 3:

step 302, the user a creates a transaction for invoking the service contract and sends the created transaction to the blockchain node.

User a may invoke a smart contract (i.e., a business contract) deployed on the blockchain by creating a transaction (including the account address of the invoked smart contract) to cause the blockchain node to execute the business contract to complete the corresponding business. For privacy protection, user a may encrypt the created transaction using digital envelope encryption that combines a symmetric encryption algorithm and an asymmetric encryption algorithm. Specifically, the transaction content is encrypted by using a symmetric encryption algorithm (i.e., the transaction content is encrypted by using a symmetric key used by itself), and then the symmetric key is encrypted by using a public key of an asymmetric encryption algorithm.

At step 304, the block link points execute the service contract.

After receiving the encrypted transaction, the blockchain node reads the transaction into the TEE, decrypts by using the private key of the asymmetric encryption algorithm to obtain a symmetric key, decrypts the transaction by using the symmetric key obtained by decryption to obtain transaction content, and then executes a service code of a service contract in the TEE.

At step 306, the block nodes store privacy data associated with the transaction.

In one aspect, the blockchain nexus, upon receiving the transaction (after consensus), issues the transaction (encrypted in the form of a digital envelope) onto the blockchain for crediting. On the other hand, after the block chain link point executes the transaction, the related data obtained by executing the transaction is encrypted and stored (issued to the block chain for storage or stored locally); where the transaction receipt corresponding to the transaction may be encrypted using a symmetric key used by user a and the contract status data obtained in response to executing the business contract in response to the transaction may be encrypted using a particular symmetric key internal to the TEE. In addition, data such as account attribute information of the user a, account attribute information of a service contract, and a contract code of the service contract may also be encrypted by using a specific symmetric key inside the TEE. The data encrypted by the block chain nodes all belong to the private data of the user A on the block chain.

In the above-described scenario of privacy protection, a user may need to share private data related to a service implemented by the user using a blockchain to some specific users for viewing, that is, the specific users may view private data related to a historical transaction initiated by the user. Then, query permissions may be set for the user's private data for other users that are allowed to query. The following describes a query scheme of private data according to the present specification with reference to fig. 4.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a flowchart of a method for querying private data based on an intelligent contract according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in fig. 4, the method applied to the blockchain node may include the following steps:

step 402, when receiving a query transaction aiming at target privacy data initiated by a query party, reading a transaction identifier of a historical transaction related to the target privacy data and contained in the query transaction.

In this embodiment, the initiator invokes the service contract that has been deployed on the blockchain to execute the corresponding service code through the historical transaction, thereby completing the corresponding service. When developing the service contract, besides defining the service code corresponding to the service in the service contract, it is necessary to define an authority control code of the privacy data related to the transaction invoking the service contract in the service contract for determining whether the inquiring party for the privacy data is allowed to inquire. Through the mode of defining the authority control code in the service contract, the association relationship can be established between the private data and the authority control code for controlling the inquiry authority of the private data, so that each service contract can control the private data related to the transaction for calling the service contract.

The development and deployment of business contracts can be accomplished by the roles of blockchain users, blockchain members, blockchain administrators, and the like. Taking a federation chain as an example, a member of the blockchain (or a user or an administrator of the blockchain) with accounting authority sets the authority control rule, and the authority control rule is defined in a service contract (service codes are also defined) in the form of an authority control code. After the development of the business contract is completed, the blockchain member can issue the business contract to the federation chain through any node device in the federation chain, and after the business contract is identified by member node devices (such as a plurality of authority node devices with accounting authority) specified by parts in the federation chain, the business contract is collected to a distributed database (namely a distributed ledger) of the federation chain. Based on the manner in which the service contract is deployed, the deployer of the service contract (i.e., the general user or general member with billing authority) may control whether others are permitted to query for private data associated with the transaction sent to the service contract (i.e., the transaction that invoked the service contract).

The consensus algorithm supported in the blockchain may include:

the first kind of consensus algorithm, namely the consensus algorithm that the node device needs to contend for the accounting right of each round of accounting period; consensus algorithms such as Proof of Work (POW), Proof of equity (POS), Proof of commission rights (DPOS), etc.;

the second kind of consensus algorithm, namely the consensus algorithm which elects accounting nodes in advance for each accounting period (without competing for accounting right); for example, a consensus algorithm such as a Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT) is used.

In a blockchain network employing a first type of consensus algorithm, node devices competing for billing rights can execute a transaction upon receipt. One of the node devices competing for the accounting right may win in the process of competing for the accounting right in the current round, and become an accounting node. The accounting node may package the received transaction with other transactions to generate a latest block and send the generated latest block or a block header of the latest block to other node devices for consensus.

In the block chain network adopting the second type of consensus algorithm, the node equipment with the accounting right is agreed before accounting in the current round. Thus, the node device, after receiving the transaction, may send the transaction to the accounting node if it is not the accounting node of its own round. For the accounting node of the current round, the transaction may be performed during or before packaging the transaction with other transactions to generate the latest block. After generating the latest block, the accounting node may send the latest block or a block header of the latest block to other node devices for consensus.

As described above, regardless of which consensus algorithm is used by the blockchain, the accounting node of the current round may pack the received transaction to generate the latest block, and send the generated latest block or the block header of the latest block to other node devices for consensus verification. If no problem is verified after other node equipment receives the latest block or the block header of the latest block, the latest block can be added to the tail of the original block chain, so that the accounting process of the block chain is completed. The transaction contained in the block may also be performed during the verification of a new block or block header from the accounting node by other nodes.

Based on the manner of deploying the service contracts for controlling the query authority, each service contract only controls the query authority of the private data related to the transaction for invoking itself. Therefore, when a user (as an inquiring party) initiates an inquiry transaction aiming at target privacy data related to historical transactions (initiated by any other user), the block chain node needs to determine a service contract for controlling the inquiry authority of the target privacy data, and then the service contract can be called to realize authority control.

And aiming at the mode that the block chain nodes invoke the service contracts to realize authority control, a distribution contract can be deployed on the block chain in advance for identifying whether the transaction received by the block chain nodes is a query transaction, and when the received transaction is the query transaction, corresponding service contracts are further invoked to execute authority control codes (which can be understood as the inquiry transaction is distributed to the corresponding service contracts). In particular, distribution code may be defined in a distribution contract for invoking a business contract to execute rights control code defined in the business contract. Thus, the query transaction created by the querying party is the transaction used to invoke the distribution contract. Then, when any transaction received by a block node is used to invoke a distribution contract, that transaction may be used as a query transaction.

Step 404, obtaining the historical transaction according to the transaction identifier, and determining a service contract called by the historical transaction based on the historical transaction.

In this embodiment, the transaction identifier of the historical transaction may be obtained by offline sharing between the initiator and the querier of the historical transaction, or obtained by any other method. Taking the ether house as an example, when the inquiring party creates the inquiry transaction, the hash value (as the transaction identifier) of the history transaction, which is notified by the initiator of the history transaction, can be recorded in the data field of the inquiry transaction. Then, when receiving the query transaction, the blockchain node can obtain the historical transaction stored on the blockchain through the hash value, and further determine the service contract invoked by the historical transaction according to the to field (the contract address for recording the invoked intelligent contract) of the historical transaction.

And 406, executing an authority control code defined in the service contract to determine the inquiry authority of the inquirer for the target privacy data.

In the embodiment, after determining that the received transaction is a query transaction and determining the service contract invoked by the historical transaction, the block link point invokes the distribution contract to execute the distribution code defined in the distribution contract, so as to invoke the determined service contract execution authority control code.

The distribution contract may be designed as a system-level intelligent contract based on the distribution contract serving as a "distribution query transaction". Thus, development and deployment of distribution contracts may be accomplished by an administrator of the blockchain. Also taking a federation chain as an example, a manager with administrative authority develops distribution logic (calls a service contract according to a contract address of the service contract called by a historical transaction recorded in a query transaction) and defines the distribution logic in the distribution contract in the form of distribution code. After completing development of a distribution contract, an administrator may publish the distribution contract for deployment on a federation chain (similar to the process described above for deploying intelligent contracts).

In one case, the distribution contract may be deployed through the creation block of the block chain, that is, the distribution contract is deployed when the block chain is built, and the contract code of the distribution contract is recorded in the creation block. In another case, the distribution contract may be deployed in a subsequent process of building the blockchain; for example, during the subsequent use process, the administrator wants to add the authority query function. The administrator may then initiate a transaction to create a distribution contract to deploy the distribution contract onto the blockchain. Wherein the to field of the transaction is an empty string, the binary code for initializing the contract is specified in the data field, and the execution result of the code will be the contract code when the contract is called later.

In the technical scheme of the specification, besides the service contract is called by deploying the distribution contract to realize authority control, the distribution logic can be solidified into the chain code in the form of the distribution code and issued together with the chain code, so that the subsequent redeployment by an administrator is not needed, and the contract code is solidified in the chain code, so that the contract code is controllable, and the safety is effectively improved. In other words, the distribution of query transactions to the respective business contracts is accomplished by the block link points themselves, without having to do so by invoking intelligent contracts.

It should be noted that the type of the request initiated on the blockchain by the user accessing the blockchain may specifically refer to a transaction (transaction) adopted in a conventional blockchain. Of course, the type of the request initiated on the blockchain by the user accessing the blockchain may be other than a transaction, and other forms of instructions, messages, and the like with a standard data structure may also be used. In the following embodiments, a request initiated on a blockchain by a user accessing the blockchain will be described as an example of a transaction.

In this embodiment, the authority control rule defined in the form of the authority control code in the service contract can be flexibly set according to the actual requirement; of course, one or more embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the specific content of the rights control rule. In one case, the identity information of the inquiring party can be used as the basis for the authority control. Correspondingly, when the inquiring party creates the inquiring transaction, the inquiring transaction should include the identity information of the inquiring party. For example, the identity information of the inquiring party is the account ID (i.e., account address) of the inquiring party, which may be recorded in the from field of the inquiry transaction. Further, the authority control rule may be set to allow the inquiring party to inquire the corresponding private data when the identity information of the inquiring party meets a specific condition. For example, when the inquiring party belongs to a pre-specified inquiring user set, the inquiring authority of the inquiring party can be determined as allowing to inquire, or when the credit score of the inquiring party exceeds a preset credit threshold value, the inquiring authority of the inquiring party can be determined as allowing to inquire, and the like. Therefore, when determining the query authority of the inquirer, the authority control code defined in the service contract can be executed to determine the query authority of the inquirer for the target private data according to the identity information of the inquirer.

In another case, the identity information of the inquiring party and the identity information of the initiator of the historical transaction may be used together as the basis for the authority control, and then the authority control rule may be set to allow the inquiring party to inquire the corresponding privacy data when the identity information of the inquiring party and the identity information of the initiator meet a specific condition. For example, an inquiry group and an inquired group are recorded in the authority control rule, and members belonging to the inquiry group allow to view the private data of the inquired group members; or directly recording the corresponding relation of other users which can be checked by each user in the authority control rule; or when the inquirer and the initiator belong to the same team, the inquiry authority of the inquirer can be determined as allowing inquiry, and the like. Therefore, when determining the query authority of the inquiring party, the identity information of the initiator of the historical transaction can be obtained based on the historical transaction, and then the authority control code defined in the service contract is executed, so that the query authority of the inquiring party for the target privacy data is determined according to the identity information of the inquiring party and the identity information of the initiator.

In another case, the identity information of the initiator of the historical transaction may be used as the basis for the authority control, and then the authority control rule may be set to allow the querying party to query the corresponding privacy data when the identity information of the initiator meets a specific condition. For example, when the initiator belongs to a pre-specified set of users that can be queried, the query authority of the querying party can be determined as being allowed to be queried, or when the credit score of the initiator exceeds a preset credit threshold, the query authority of the querying party can be determined as being allowed to be queried, and the like. Therefore, when determining the query authority of the inquiring party, the identity information of the initiator of the historical transaction can be obtained based on the historical transaction, and then the authority control code defined in the service contract is executed, so as to determine the query authority of the inquiring party for the target privacy data according to the identity information of the initiator.

And step 408, when the determined inquiry authority is allowed to inquire, acquiring the decrypted target privacy data to be checked by the inquiring party, and reading the target privacy data into a trusted execution environment for decryption.

In this embodiment, the private data is stored in an encrypted manner for the protection of the user private data described above. Therefore, when the inquiry authority of the inquiring party is determined to be allowed to inquire, the target privacy data is obtained and read into the trusted execution environment to be decrypted so as to be obtained by the inquiring party. For example, the target privacy data may be obtained from the transaction identification. The decryption method used is different (because the encryption method is different) according to the data type contained in the target private data.

When the target privacy data includes the historical transaction and/or the transaction receipts of the historical transaction, as can be seen from the embodiment shown in fig. 3, the historical transaction and the transaction receipts of the historical transaction are encrypted by using the symmetric key used by the initiator of the historical transaction. Thus, after the historical transaction and/or transaction receipts for the historical transaction are obtained, the symmetric key used by the initiator (i.e., user a in the embodiment shown in fig. 3) may be obtained, and then the historical transaction and/or transaction receipts for the historical transaction may be decrypted within the TEE using the symmetric key. For the acquisition of the symmetric key used by the initiator, a symmetric key used for encrypting the historical transaction may be acquired first (the symmetric key is encrypted by a public key used by the initiator, that is, in the embodiment shown in fig. 3, a digital envelope is used for encryption), and the symmetric key is decrypted in the TEE by using a private key corresponding to the public key used by the initiator to obtain a decrypted symmetric key. It should be noted that, when the target privacy data is history transaction, the process of acquiring history transaction and decrypting history transaction is performed when step 404 is executed, that is, the history transaction is acquired according to the transaction identifier and decrypted to obtain plaintext transaction content, so as to determine the service contract invoked by history transaction according to the plaintext transaction content. Therefore, when the inquiry authority is determined to be allowed to inquire, the decrypted historical transaction can be directly acquired for the inquiring party to view (without performing the operations of acquiring the historical transaction and decrypting the historical transaction).

The symmetric key used by the initiator can be generated by the initiator through a symmetric encryption algorithm, or obtained by negotiation between the initiator and the block link node, or obtained by sending through a key management server. For example, the symmetric encryption algorithm may be DES algorithm, 3DES algorithm, TDEA algorithm, Blowfish algorithm, RC5 algorithm, IDEA algorithm, or the like. A public key used by the initiator is sent to the initiator through remote certification by the key management server, the TEE of the block chain node is established by the SGX framework, and a private key corresponding to the public key is sent to a ring (also called enclave) of the block chain node through remote certification by the key management server. And the asymmetric encryption algorithm for generating the public key and the private key may be, for example, RSA, Elgamal, knapsack algorithm, Rabin, D-H, ECC (elliptic curve encryption algorithm), etc.

When the target privacy data includes at least one of account attribute information of the initiator of the historical transaction, account attribute information of the service contract, contract code of the service contract, and contract status data of the service contract, as can be seen from the embodiment shown in fig. 3, these privacy data are encrypted by using a specific symmetric key inside the TEE. Thus, after obtaining these private data, they may be decrypted within the TEE by the specific symmetric key of the blockchain node. And for a specific symmetric key in the TEE, the SGX architecture at the block chain link point is remotely certified and then sent by a key management server, or is obtained by negotiation between the block chain link point and other block chain nodes.

In this embodiment, similar to the above-mentioned manner of encrypting the historical transaction to protect privacy, when the inquiring party initiates the inquiry transaction, the inquiring party may also encrypt the created inquiry transaction by using the symmetric key used by itself, and encrypt the symmetric key by using the public key used by itself. Therefore, after receiving the query transaction, the blockchain node decrypts the symmetric key of the encrypted query transaction by using the private key corresponding to the public key used by the querying party in the TEE, and then decrypts the query transaction by using the symmetric key obtained by decryption to obtain the transaction content contained in the query transaction. After the target privacy data are obtained and decrypted, the block chain nodes can encrypt the decrypted target privacy data through the symmetric key of the inquiring party, so that the inquiring party can decrypt and check the target privacy data through the symmetric key used by the inquiring party, and the target privacy data are prevented from being leaked.

The sources of the symmetric key, the public key and the private key used for privacy protection for the inquiring party are similar to those described above, and are not described herein again. Of course, the asymmetric keys (public key and private key) used in the process may be the asymmetric keys used for privacy protection for the initiator.

In this embodiment, when it is determined that the query authority of the querying party is query prohibition, contract receipt data indicating that the querying party prohibits querying of the target privacy data may be generated for viewing by the querying party.

For ease of understanding, the process of the querier viewing the target private data is illustrated below in conjunction with FIG. 5.

As shown in fig. 5, which is adapted to the scenario of fig. 3, after the user a initiates a transaction for invoking a service contract, the user a may share the privacy data related to the transaction (as a historical transaction in this scenario) with the user B, or the user B may have a need to view the privacy data. Then, the process of querying the target privacy data by the user B as the querying party may include the following steps:

user B creates a query transaction through the client used, step 502.

In this embodiment, the to field of the query transaction records the contract address of the distribution contract, while the hash value (i.e., the transaction ID) of the historical transaction may also be recorded in the data field (or other field) of the query transaction. The hash value of the historical transaction can be obtained by offline sharing between the user B and the user a, or by any other means.

In step 504, user B encrypts the query transaction with the digital envelope via the client.

In step 506, user B initiates a query transaction to the block node via the client.

At step 508, the blockchain node decrypts the query transaction within the TEE.

The TEE is a trusted execution environment that is based on a secure extension of the CPU hardware and is completely isolated from the outside. TEE was originally proposed by Global Platform to address the secure isolation of resources on mobile devices, providing a trusted and secure execution environment for applications parallel to the operating system. The Trust Zone technology of ARM realizes the real commercial TEE technology at the earliest. Along with the rapid development of the internet, the security requirement is higher and higher, and more requirements are provided for the TEE by mobile equipment, cloud equipment and a data center. The concept of TEE has also been developed and expanded at a high rate. The concept now referred to as TEE has been a more generalized TEE than the concept originally proposed. For example, server chip manufacturers Intel, AMD, etc. have introduced hardware-assisted TEE in turn and enriched the concept and characteristics of TEE, which have gained wide acceptance in the industry. The mention of TEE now is more generally directed to such hardware assisted TEE techniques. Unlike the mobile terminal, the cloud access requires remote access, and the end user is not visible to the hardware platform, so the first step of using the TEE is to confirm the authenticity and credibility of the TEE. Therefore, the current TEE technology introduces a remote attestation mechanism which is endorsed by a hardware manufacturer (mainly a CPU manufacturer) and ensures that a user can verify the TEE state through a digital signature technology. Meanwhile, the security requirement which cannot be met by only safe resource isolation is also met, and further data privacy protection is also provided. Commercial TEE including Intel SGX, AMD SEV also provide memory encryption techniques, limiting trusted hardware within the CPU, with the data of the bus and memory being ciphertext to prevent snooping by malicious users. For example, TEE technology such as intel's software protection extensions (SGX) isolates code execution, remote attestation, secure configuration, secure storage of data, and trusted paths for executing code. Applications running in the TEE are secured and are almost impossible to access by third parties.

Taking the Intel SGX technology as an example, SGX provides a bounding box, i.e., an encrypted trusted execution area in the memory, and the CPU protects data from being stolen. Taking a block link point using a CPU supporting SGX as an example, a part of an area EPC (enclosure Page Cache, Enclave Page Cache, or Enclave Page Cache) may be allocated in a memory by using a newly added processor instruction, and data therein is encrypted by an Encryption engine mee (memory Encryption engine) in the CPU. The encrypted content in the EPC is decrypted into plaintext only after entering the CPU. Therefore, in the SGX, a user may not trust an operating system, a VMM (Virtual Machine Monitor), or even a BIOS (Basic Input output system), and only need to trust the CPU to ensure that private data is not leaked.

In practical application, the key of the asymmetric encryption algorithm can be generated by the key management server. Through a remote certification mode, the key management server sends the private key to the blockchain node, specifically, the private key can be transmitted into a surrounding ring of the blockchain node. The blockchain node may comprise a plurality of enclosures, and the private key may be passed into a security enclosure of the enclosures; for example, the security enclosure may be a qe (queuing enclosure) enclosure, rather than an ae (application enclosure) enclosure. For asymmetrically encrypted public keys, they may be sent by the key management server to the user's client. Then, the client may encrypt the created transaction using a symmetric encryption algorithm, that is, encrypt the transaction content using the symmetric key of the symmetric encryption algorithm, and encrypt the symmetric key used in the symmetric encryption algorithm using the asymmetric encryption algorithm. Generally, a public key of an asymmetric encryption algorithm is used to encrypt a symmetric key used in a symmetric encryption algorithm. The above encryption mode is called digital envelope encryption, so that after the block chain nodes receive the encrypted transaction, the block chain nodes can firstly decrypt by using the private key of the asymmetric encryption algorithm to obtain the symmetric key of the symmetric encryption algorithm, and then decrypt by using the symmetric key of the symmetric encryption algorithm to obtain the transaction content.

At step 510, the block link points determine that the received transaction is a query transaction that invokes a distribution contract.

In this embodiment, the to field content of any transaction is read by the tile link point after the transaction is received. When the to field content is a contract address of a distribution contract, indicating that the transaction is for invoking a distribution contract, then the transaction may be determined to be a query transaction.

In step 512, the hash value included in the query transaction is read from the block link point.

In step 514, the block chain node obtains the from field and the to field of the historical transaction according to the hsah value.

In this embodiment, the content of the from field of the historical transaction is the address of the initiator of the historical transaction (in this embodiment, the identity information of the initiator), and the content of the to field of the historical transaction is the contract address of the service contract invoked by the historical transaction.

At step 516, the blockchain nexus sends the from and to fields of the historical transactions to the distribution contract.

The distribution contract determines the business contract invoked by the historical transaction based on the to field of the historical transaction, step 518.

Step 520, the distribution contract invokes the service contract.

At step 522, the business contract determines the query authority of user B according to the from field of the query transaction and the from field of the historical transaction.

In this embodiment, the identity information of the inquiring party and the initiator of the historical transaction are taken as the basis of the permission control together. For example, the right control rule (defined in the service contract in the form of right control code) records the query group and the queried group, and the members belonging to the query group are allowed to view the private data of the members of the queried group; or directly recording the corresponding relation of other users which can be checked by each user in the authority control rule. Wherein, the account address is used as the identity information of the user. Then, the block node executes the authority control code defined in the service contract, so as to determine the inquiry authority of the user B according to the account address of the inquiring party (from field content of inquiry transaction) and the account address of the initiator of the historical transaction (from field content of historical transaction).

The service contract returns the query authority of user B to the block link point, step 524.

In step 526, when the query authority of the user B is allowed to query, the block link point obtains the target privacy data.

In this embodiment, the blockchain node may obtain the target privacy data according to a hash value of the historical transaction. And when the inquiry authority of the user B is determined to be inquiry prohibition by using the service contract, a contract receipt about the inquiry prohibition target private data of the user B can be generated for the user B to view. Or returning a receipt of the query inhibition to the user B by the block chain node to inform the user B that the query authority is the query inhibition.

In step 528, the block node reads the target privacy data into the TEE for decryption.

In the present embodiment, as can be seen from the embodiment shown in fig. 3, the private data is stored in an encrypted manner for the purpose of privacy protection. Meanwhile, the encryption modes adopted are different according to different data types contained in the private data. Therefore, after the target privacy data is acquired according to the hash value of the historical transaction, the acquired target privacy data is read into the trusted execution environment to be decrypted so as to be acquired by the inquiring party.

When the target privacy data includes the historical transaction and/or the transaction receipts of the historical transaction, as can be seen from the embodiment shown in fig. 3, the historical transaction and the transaction receipts of the historical transaction are encrypted by using the symmetric key used by the initiator of the historical transaction. Thus, after the historical transaction and/or transaction receipts for the historical transaction are obtained, the symmetric key used by user a may be obtained and then the historical transaction and/or transaction receipts for the historical transaction may be decrypted within the TEE using the symmetric key. For the acquisition of the symmetric key used by the initiator, a symmetric key used for encrypting the historical transaction (the symmetric key is encrypted by the public key used by the user a) may be acquired first, and the symmetric key is decrypted in the TEE by the private key corresponding to the public key used by the user a to obtain the decrypted symmetric key.

It should be noted that, when the target privacy data is a history transaction, the process of acquiring the history transaction and decrypting the history transaction is executed when step 514 is executed, that is, the history transaction is acquired according to the hash value of the history transaction, and the history transaction is decrypted to obtain the plaintext transaction content of the history transaction, so as to read the from field and the to field of the history transaction. Therefore, in this case, when the query authority is determined as allowing the query, the decrypted history transaction is directly acquired (without performing the operations of acquiring the history transaction and decrypting the history transaction) and is viewed by the querying party.

When the target privacy data includes at least one of account attribute information of user a, account attribute information of the service contract, contract code of the service contract, contract status data of the service contract, these privacy data may be decrypted within the TEE by the specific symmetric key of the blockchain node.

For example, the specific symmetric key may be a seal (simple Encrypted authenticated identity) key, which may be sent to the blockchain node by the key management server after passing the remote attestation, or may be negotiated among the various blockchain nodes, and then the blockchain nodes encrypt and decrypt the private data using the seal key. Of course, the symmetric key sent by the key management server to the blockchain node after the remote certification or obtained by negotiation between the blockchain nodes may be a root key (root key) instead of the above-mentioned seal key, and the above-mentioned seal key may be a derivative key of the root key. For example, root keys may irreversibly derive several versions of derived keys in turn, and any two adjacent keys irreversibly derive a low version of key from a high version of key, thereby forming a chained key derivation structure. For example, if 256 versions of keys with version numbers of 0-255 need to be derived, hash calculation can be performed on the root key and a version factor 0xFF (a decimal value is 255, that is, the version number of the key needs to be generated; of course, other values can also be adopted) to obtain a key-255 with the version number of 255; carrying out hash calculation on the key-255 and the version factor 0xFE to obtain the key-254 with the version number of 254; … … the key-0 with version number 0 is obtained by hashing the key-1 with a version factor of 0x 00. Due to the characteristics of the hash algorithm, the calculation between the high-version key and the low-version key is irreversible, for example, the key-0 can be calculated by the key-1 and the version factor 0x00, but the key-1 cannot be reversely deduced by the key-0 and the version factor 0x 00.

Then a version of the derived key may be specified as the seal key described above to encrypt the private data. Further, the version of the seal key may be updated, and based on the above characteristics, the seal key should be updated from the low version key to the high version key, so that even if the low version key is leaked, the high version key cannot be deduced reversely, and sufficient data security is ensured.

In step 530, the block chain node encrypts the target privacy data with the symmetric key of user B.

In step 532, user B views the target privacy data.

In an embodiment, after encrypting the target privacy data, the blockchain node may generate an event containing the target privacy data and store the event in the blockchain log, and then, the user B may use the client to obtain the event through a callback mechanism of the blockchain, so as to view the target privacy data. After the target privacy data is obtained, the user B decrypts the target privacy data by adopting the symmetric key used by the user B through the client side, and then the privacy data of the plaintext content can be obtained.

In another embodiment, the chunk chain node may directly return the encrypted target privacy data to the client used by the user B after encrypting the target privacy data. Similarly, the user B decrypts the target privacy data by using the symmetric key used by the user B through the client, so as to obtain the privacy data of the plaintext content.

Therefore, according to the private data query scheme in the specification, the user A can share the private data between the user A and the user B without sharing the symmetric key used by the user A with the user B, so that the safety and the convenience are improved.
