           Clarification of RFC7030 CSR Attributes definition
                  draft-ietf-lamps-rfc7030-csrattrs-06

Abstract

   The Enrollment over Secure Transport (EST, RFC7030) is ambiguous in
   its specification of the CSR Attributes Response.  This has resulted
   in implementation challenges and implementor confusion.

   This document updates RFC7030 (EST) and clarifies how the CSR
   Attributes Response can be used by an EST server to specify both CSR
   attribute OIDs and also CSR attribute values, in particular X.509
   extension values, that the server expects the client to include in
   subsequent CSR request.

Internet-Draft                  CSRAttrs                     August 2023

1.  Introduction

   Enrollment over Secure Transport [RFC7030] (EST) has been used in a
   wide variety of applications.  In particular, [RFC8994] and [RFC8995]
   describe a way to use it in order to build out an autonomic control
   plane (ACP) [RFC8368].

   The ACP requires that each node be given a very specific
   subjectAltName.  In the ACP specification, the solution was for the
   EST server to use section 2.6 of [RFC7030] to convey to the EST
   client the actual subjectAltName that will end up in its certificate.

   As a result of some implementation challenges, it came to light that
   this particular way of using the CSR attributes was not universally
   agreed upon, and it was suggested that it went contrary to section
   2.6.

   Section 2.6 says that the CSR attributes "can provide additional
   descriptive information that the EST server cannot access itself".
   This is extended to describe how the EST server can provide values
   that it demands to use.

   After significant discussion, it has been determined that Section 4.5
   of [RFC7030] specification is sufficiently difficult to read and
   ambiguous to interpret that clarification is needed.

   This document motivates the different use cases, and provides
   additional worked out examples.

   Also, section 4.5.2 is extended to clarify the use of the existing
   ASN.1 syntax.  This covers all uses and is fully backward compatible
   with existing use.

2.  Terminology

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
   BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
   capitals, as shown here.

3.  CSR Attributes Handling

3.1.  Extensions to RFC 7030 section 2.6.

   Replace the second paragraph with the following text:

Richardson, et al.       Expires 2 February 2024                [Page 3]
Internet-Draft                  CSRAttrs                     August 2023

   These attributes can provide additional descriptive information that
   the EST server cannot access itself, such as the Media Access Control
   (MAC) address of an interface of the EST client. The EST server can also
   provide concrete values that it tells the client to include in the CSR,
   such as a specific X.509 Subject Alternative Name extension. Moreover,
   these attributes can indicate the type of the included public key
   or which crypto algorithms to use for the self-signature,
   such as a specific elliptic curve or a specific hash function that the client
   is expected to use when generating the CSR.

3.2.  Extensions to RFC 7030 section 4.5.2.

   The ASN.1 syntax for CSR Attributes as defined in EST section 4.5.2
   is as follows:

      CsrAttrs ::= SEQUENCE SIZE (0..MAX) OF AttrOrOID

      AttrOrOID ::= CHOICE (oid OBJECT IDENTIFIER, attribute Attribute }

      Attribute { ATTRIBUTE:IOSet } ::= SEQUENCE {
           type   ATTRIBUTE.&id({IOSet}),
           values SET SIZE(1..MAX) OF ATTRIBUTE.&Type({IOSet}{@type}) }

   This remains unchanged, such that bits-on-the-wire compatibility is
   maintained.

   Key parts that were unclear were which OID to use in the 'type' field
   and that the 'values' field can contain an entire sequence of X.509
   extensions.

   The OID to use for such attributes in the 'type' field MUST be
   extensionRequest, which has the numerical value
   1.2.840.113549.1.9.14.  There MUST be only one such Attribute.

   The 'values' field of this attribute MUST contain a set with exactly
   one element, and this element MUST by of type Extensions, as per
   Section 4.1 of [RFC5280]:

      Extensions  ::=  SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF Extension

      Extension  ::=  SEQUENCE  {
           extnID      OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
           critical    BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
           extnValue   OCTET STRING
                       -- contains the DER encoding of an ASN.1 value
                       -- corresponding to the extension type identified
                       -- by extnID
           }

Richardson, et al.       Expires 2 February 2024                [Page 4]
Internet-Draft                  CSRAttrs                     August 2023

   An Extension comprises the OID of the specific X.509 extension
   (extnID), optionally the 'critical' bit, and the extension value
   (extnValue).

   An Extensions structure, which is a sequence of elements of type
   Extension, MUST NOT include more than one element with a particiular
   extnID.

   With this understanding, the needs of [RFC8994] and [RFC8995] are
   satisfied with no change to the bits on the wire.

3.3.  Alternative: Use of CSR templates

   [RFC8295], Appendix B suggests an alternative for the piecemeal
   specification of attributes that [RFC7030] documented.  Instead, a
   CSR object is returned with various fields filled out, and other
   fields waiting to be filled in.  This is also the method defined CMP
   Update [I-D.ietf-lamps-cmp-updates] and the Lightweight CMP profile
   [I-D.ietf-lamps-lightweight-cmp-profile], Section 4.3.3, which uses a
   CSR template in CRMF.

       CertificationRequestInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
           version       INTEGER { v1(0) } (v1,...),
           subject       Name,
           subjectPKInfo SubjectPublicKeyInfo{{ PKInfoAlgorithms }},
           attributes    [0] Attributes{{ CRIAttributes }}
           }

   The CertificationRequestInfo is included as a new Attribute in the
   CsrAttrs elements sequence.  It has the type OID TBD.  Legacy servers
   MAY continue to use the [RFC7030] style piecemeal attribute/value
   pairs, and MAY also include the template style described here.
   Clients which understand both MUST use the template only, and ignore
   all other CSRattrs elements.  Older clients will ignore this new
   element.

   The use of the CertificationRequestInfo avoids a useless fake
   signature in the CSR object.  The version code is always v1 (0).  As
   shown in the example below, any empty values in the subject DN, and
   in any included X509v3 extensions are expected to be filled in by the
   client.

   The SubjectPublicKeyInfo field must be present, but it MUST have an
   empty bit string for the key, as the server does not know what key
   will be used.  The server MAY specify (in the OID), the type of the
   key to use, but otherwise the OID type MUST be NULL.

4.  Co-existence with existing implementations

5.  Examples

   Each example has a high-level (English) explanation of what is
   expected.  Some mapping back to the Attribute and Extension
   definitions above are included.  The base64 DER encoding is then
   shown.  The output of "dumpasn1" is then provided to detail what the
   contents are.

5.1.  RFC8994/ACP subjectAltName with specific otherName

   A single subjectAltName extension is specified in a single Extension
   attribute.  This is what might be created by an [RFC8995] Registrar
   that is asking for [RFC8994] AcpNodeName format otherNames.

6.  Security Considerations

   The security considerations from EST [RFC7030] section 6 are
   unchanged.

6.1.  Identity and Privacy Considerations

   An EST server may use this mechanism to instruct the EST client about
   the identities it should include in the CSR it sends as part of
   enrollment.  The client may only be aware of its IDevID Subject,
   which includes a manufacturer serial number.  The EST server can use
   this mechanism to tell the client to include a specific fully
   qualified domain name in the CSR in order to complete domain
   ownership proofs required by the CA.  Additionally, the EST server
   may deem the manufacturer serial number in an IDevID as personally
   identifiable information, and may want to specify a new random opaque
   identifier that the pledge should use in its CSR.  This may be
   desirable if the CA and EST server have different operators.

7.  IANA Considerations

   No requests are made to IANA.

8.  Acknowledgements

   Corey Bonnell crafted example02 using a different tool, and this
