<abstract>
<t> This document specifies a new certificate type and two TLS extensions,
one for the client and one for the server, for exchanging raw
public keys in Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Datagram Transport
Layer Security (DTLS) for use with out-of-band public key validation.</t>
</abstract>
</front>
<middle>
<section anchor="into" title="Introduction">
<t> Traditionally, TLS client and server public keys are obtained in PKIX containers
in-band using the TLS handshake and validated using trust anchors
based on a <xref target='PKIX'/> certification authority (CA). This
method can add a complicated trust relationship that is difficult
to validate. Examples of such complexity can be seen in
<xref target='Defeating-SSL'/>.</t>
<t>Alternative methods are available that allow a TLS clients/servers
to obtain the TLS servers/client public key:
<list style="symbols">
<t>TLS clients can obtain the TLS server public key from a
DNSSEC secured resource records using DANE <xref target="RFC6698"/>.</t>
<t>The TLS client or server public key is obtained from a
<xref target='PKIX'/> certificate chain from an Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LDAP) <xref target="LDAP"/> server or web page.</t>
<t>The TLS client and server public key is provisioned into
the operating system firmware image, and updated via
software updates. For example:
<vspace blankLines="1"/>
Some smart objects use the UDP-based Constrained
Application Protocol (CoAP) <xref target="I-D.ietf-core-coap"/> to
interact with a Web server to upload sensor data at
a regular intervals, such as temperature readings.
CoAP <xref target="I-D.ietf-core-coap"/> can utilize DTLS for securing
the client-to-server communication. As part of the
manufacturing process, the embedded device may be
configured with the address and the public key of
a dedicated CoAP server, as well as a public key for
the client itself.</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>The mechanism defined herein only provides authentication when
an out-of-band mechanism is also used to bind the public key
to the entity presenting the key.</t>
<t>This document registers a new value to the IANA certificate
types registry for the support of raw public keys. It also
defines two new TLS extensions, "client_certificate_type" and
"server_certificate_type".</t>

<section title="New TLS Extension">
<t>This section describes the changes to the TLS handshake message contents when raw public keys are to be used.
<xref target="flow"/> illustrates the exchange of messages as described in the sub-sections below. The client and the server exchange make use of two new TLS extensions, namely 'client_certificate_type' and 'server_certificate_type', and an already available IANA TLS Certificate Type registry <xref target="TLS-Certificate-Types-Registry"/> to indicate their ability and desire to exchange raw public keys. These raw public keys, in the form of a SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure, are then carried inside the Certificate payload. The Certificate and the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure is shown in <xref target="Certificate"/>.

<t>The SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure is defined in Section 4.1 of RFC 5280 <xref target="PKIX"/> and does not only contain the raw keys, such as the public exponent and the modulus of an RSA public key, but also an algorithm identifier. The algorithm identifier can also include parameters. The structure, as shown in <xref target="SubjectPublicKeyInfo"/>, is encoded in an DER encoded ASN.1 format <xref target="X.690"/> and therefore contains length information as well.

The semantic of the two extensions is defined as follows:

These extension MUST be omitted if the client only supports X.509 certificates. The 'client_certificate_type' sent in the client hello indicates the certificate types the client is able to provide to the server, when requested using a certificate_request message. The 'server_certificate_type' in the client hello indicates the type of certificates the client is able to process when provided by the server in a subsequent certificate payload. </t>
<t>The 'client_certificate_type' returned in the server hello indicates the certificate type found in the attached certificate payload. Only a single value is permitted. The 'server_certificate_type' in the server hello indicates the type of certificates the client is requested to provide in a subsequent certificate payload. The value conveyed in the 'server_certificate_type' MUST be selected from one of the values provided in the 'server_certificate_type' sent in the client hello. If the server does not send a certificate_request payload or none of the certificates supported by the client (as indicated in the 'server_certificate_type' in the client hello) match the server-supported certificate types the 'server_certificate_type' payload sent in the server hello is omitted.</t>

<section title="Client Hello">
<t>
In order to indicate the support of out-of-band raw public keys,
clients MUST include the 'client_certificate_type' and 'server_certificate_type' extensions in an extended
client hello message. The hello extension mechanism is described in TLS 1.2 <xref target="RFC5246"/>.
</t>

<section title="Server Hello">
<t>If the server receives a client hello that contains the 'client_certificate_type' and 'server_certificate_type'
extensions and chooses a cipher suite then three outcomes are possible:
<list style="numbers">
<t>The server does not support the extension defined in this document. In this case the server returns the server hello
without the extensions defined in this document.</t>
<t>The server supports the extension defined in this document and has at least one certificate type in common with the client.
In this case it returns the 'server_certificate_type' and indicates the selected certificate type value.
</t>
<t>The server supports the extension defined in this document but does not have a certificate type in common with the client. In this case the server terminate the session with a
fatal alert of type "unsupported_certificate".</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>If the TLS server also requests a certificate from the client (via the certificate_request) it MUST include the 'client_certificate_type' extension with a value chosen from the list of client-supported certificates types (as provided
in the 'client_certificate_type' of the client hello).
</t>
<t>If the client hello indicates support of raw public keys in the
'client_certificate_type' extension and the
server chooses to use raw public keys then the TLS server
MUST place the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure into the Certificate
payload.</t>

<!-- <t>
The "RawPublicKey" value
in the 'raw-public-key' extension allows the client to provide an
indication to the server that it supports the raw public key extension
in this document. The server responds with a certificate payload that
contains the raw public key as defined in this document.
Note that the certificate payloads only
contain the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure instead of the entire
certificate.
</t>
-->
<t>The first example shows an exchange where the TLS client indicates its ability to
receive and validate raw public keys from the server. In our example the client is quite restricted since it is unable to process other certificate types sent by the server. It also does not have credentials (at the TLS layer) it could send. The 'client_certificate_type' extension indicates this in [1]. When the TLS server receives the client hello it
processes the 'client_certificate_type' extension. Since it also has a raw public key it indicates
in [2] that it had chosen to place the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure into the Certificate
payload [3]. The client uses this raw public key in the TLS handshake and an out-of-band technique,
such as DANE, to verify its validity.</t>

</t>
<t>In our second example the TLS client as well as the TLS server use raw public keys. This is a use case envisioned for smart object networking. The TLS client in this case is an embedded device that is configured with a raw public key for use with TLS and is also able to process raw public keys sent by the server. Therefore, it indicates these capabilities in [1]. As in the previously shown example the server fulfills the client's request, indicates this via the "RawPublicKey" value in the server_certificate_type payload, and provides a raw public key into the Certificate payload back to the client (see [3]). The TLS server, however, demands client authentication and therefore a certificate_request is added [4]. The certificate_type payload in [2] indicates that the TLS server accepts raw public keys. The TLS client, who has a raw public key pre-provisioned,
returns it in the Certificate payload [5] to the server.</t>

</t>
<t>In our last example we illustrate a combination of raw public key and X.509 usage. The client uses a raw public key
for client authentication but the server provides an X.509 certificate. This exchange starts with the client indicating its ability to process X.509 certificates provided by the server, and the ability to send raw public keys (see [1]). The server provides the X.509 certificate in [3] with the indication present in [2]. For client authentication the server indicates in [4] that it selected the raw public key format and requests a certificate from the client in [5]. The TLS client provides a raw public key in [6] after receiving and processing the TLS server hello message.</t>

<section title="Security Considerations" anchor="security">
<t>The transmission of raw public keys, as described in this document,
provides benefits by lowering the over-the-air transmission overhead since
raw public keys are quite naturally smaller than an entire certificate.
There are also advantages from a code size point of view for parsing and
processing these keys. The cryptographic procedures for associating the
public key with the possession of a private key also follows standard
procedures.</t>
<t>The main security challenge is, however, how to associate the public
key with a specific entity. Without a secure binding between identity and key the protocol will be vulnerable to masquerade and man-in-the-middle attacks. This document assumes that such
binding can be made out-of-band and we list a few examples in <xref target="into"/>.
DANE <xref target="RFC6698"/> offers one such approach. In order to address these vulnerabilities, specifications that make use of the extension MUST specify how the identity and public key are bound.
If public keys are obtained using DANE, these public keys are authenticated via DNSSEC.
Pre-configured keys is another out of band method for authenticating raw public keys.
While pre-configured keys are not suitable for
a generic Web-based e-commerce environment such keys are a reasonable approach
for many smart object deployments where there is a close relationship between
the software running on the device and the server-side communication endpoint.
Regardless of the chosen mechanism for out-of-band public key validation an
assessment of the most suitable approach has to be made prior to the start of a
deployment to ensure the security of the system.</t>
