In order to disable the module validity enforcement, writing
a PKCS#7 signature corresponding the signed content '0' is
required. Given a simple way to archive this:
$ echo -n 0 > no_sig_enforce
$ openssl smime -sign -nocerts -noattr -binary \
-in no_sig_enforce -inkey <system_trusted_key> \
-signer <cert> -outform der -out no_sig_enforce.p7s
$ sudo cat no_sig_enforce.p7s \
> /sys/kernel/security/modsign/disable_enforce
Note that the signing key must be a trust key located in
system trusted keyring. So even the root privilige cannot
simply disable the enforcement.
