             YANG Data Types and Groupings for Cryptography
                   draft-ietf-netconf-crypto-types-34

Abstract

   This document presents a YANG 1.1 (RFC 7950) module defining
   identities, typedefs, and groupings useful to cryptographic
   applications.

Editorial Note (To be removed by RFC Editor)

   This draft contains placeholder values that need to be replaced with
   finalized values at the time of publication.  This note summarizes
   all of the substitutions that are needed.  No other RFC Editor
   instructions are specified elsewhere in this document.

   Artwork in this document contains shorthand references to drafts in
   progress.  Please apply the following replacements:

   *  AAAA --> the assigned RFC value for this draft

   Artwork in this document contains placeholder values for the date of
   publication of this draft.  Please apply the following replacement:

   *  2024-03-16 --> the publication date of this draft

   The "Relation to other RFCs" section Section 1.1 contains the text
   "one or more YANG modules" and, later, "modules".  This text is
   sourced from a file in a context where it is unknown how many modules
   a draft defines.  The text is not wrong as is, but it may be improved
   by stating more directly how many modules are defined.

   The "Relation to other RFCs" section Section 1.1 contains a self-
   reference to this draft, along with a corresponding reference in the
   Appendix.  Please replace the self-reference in this section with
   "This RFC" (or similar) and remove the self-reference in the
   "Normative/Informative References" section, whichever it is in.

   Tree-diagrams in this draft may use the '\' line-folding mode defined
   in RFC 8792.  However, nicer-to-the-eye is when the '\\' line-folding
   mode is used.  The AD suggested suggested putting a request here for
   the RFC Editor to help convert "ugly" '\' folded examples to use the
   '\\' folding mode.  "Help convert" may be interpreted as, identify
   what looks ugly and ask the authors to make the adjustment.

   The following Appendix section is to be removed prior to publication:

1.  Introduction

   This document presents a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] module defining
   identities, typedefs, and groupings useful to cryptographic
   applications.

1.1.  Relation to other RFCs

   This document presents one or more YANG modules [RFC7950] that are
   part of a collection of RFCs that work together to, ultimately,
   support the configuration of both the clients and servers of both the
   NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040] protocols.

   The dependency relationship between the primary YANG groupings
   defined in the various RFCs is presented in the below diagram.  In
   some cases, a draft may define secondary groupings that introduce
   dependencies not illustrated in the diagram.  The labels in the
   diagram are a shorthand name for the defining RFC.  The citation
   reference for shorthand name is provided below the diagram.

   Please note that the arrows in the diagram point from referencer to
   referenced.  For example, the "crypto-types" RFC does not have any
   dependencies, whilst the "keystore" RFC depends on the "crypto-types"
   RFC.

1.2.  Specification Language

   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.

1.3.  Adherence to the NMDA

   This document is compliant with the Network Management Datastore
   Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342].  It does not define any protocol
   accessible nodes that are "config false".

1.4.  Conventions

   Various examples in this document use "BASE64VALUE=" as a placeholder
   value for binary data that has been base64 encoded (per Section 9.8
   of [RFC7950]).  This placeholder value is used because real base64
   encoded structures are often many lines long and hence distracting to
   the example being presented.

2.  The "ietf-crypto-types" Module

   This section defines a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] module called "ietf-crypto-
   types".  A high-level overview of the module is provided in
   Section 2.1.  Examples illustrating the module's use are provided in
   Examples (Section 2.2).  The YANG module itself is defined in
   Section 2.3.

2.1.  Data Model Overview

   This section provides an overview of the "ietf-crypto-types" module
   in terms of its features, identities, typedefs, and groupings.

2.1.1.  Features

   The following diagram lists all the "feature" statements defined in
   the "ietf-crypto-types" module:

Internet-Draft  YANG Data Types and Groupings for Crypto      March 2024

   Features:
     +-- one-symmetric-key-format
     +-- one-asymmetric-key-format
     +-- symmetrically-encrypted-value-format
     +-- asymmetrically-encrypted-value-format
     +-- cms-enveloped-data-format
     +-- cms-encrypted-data-format
     +-- p10-csr-format
     +-- csr-generation
     +-- certificate-expiration-notification
     +-- cleartext-passwords
     +-- encrypted-passwords
     +-- cleartext-symmetric-keys
     +-- hidden-symmetric-keys
     +-- encrypted-symmetric-keys
     +-- cleartext-private-keys
     +-- hidden-private-keys
     +-- encrypted-private-keys

   The diagram above uses syntax that is similar to but not the same as
   that in [RFC8340].

2.1.2.  Identities

   The following diagram illustrates the hierarchical relationship
   amongst the "identity" statements defined in the "ietf-crypto-types"
   module:

   Identities:
     +-- public-key-format
     |  +-- subject-public-key-info-format
     |  +-- ssh-public-key-format
     +-- private-key-format
     |  +-- rsa-private-key-format
     |  +-- ec-private-key-format
     |  +-- one-asymmetric-key-format
     |            {one-asymmetric-key-format}?
     +-- symmetric-key-format
     |  +-- octet-string-key-format
     |  +-- one-symmetric-key-format
     |            {one-symmetric-key-format}?
     +-- encrypted-value-format
     |  +-- symmetrically-encrypted-value-format
     |  |  |      {symmetrically-encrypted-value-format}?
     |  |  +-- cms-encrypted-data-format
     |  |         {cms-encrypted-data-format}?
     |  +-- asymmetrically-encrypted-value-format
     |     |      {asymmetrically-encrypted-value-format}?
     |     +-- cms-enveloped-data-format
     |            {cms-enveloped-data-format}?
     +-- csr-format
           +-- p10-csr-format {p10-csr-format?}

   The diagram above uses syntax that is similar to but not the same as
   that in [RFC8340].

   Comments:

   *  The diagram shows that there are five base identities.  The first
      three identities are used to indicate the format for the key data,
      while the fourth identity is used to indicate the format for
      encrypted values.  The fifth identity is used to indicate the
      format for a certificate signing request.  The base identities are
      "abstract", in the object oriented programming sense, in that they
      only define a "class" of formats, rather than a specific format.

   *  The various terminal identities define specific encoding formats.
      The derived identities defined in this document are sufficient for
      the effort described in Section 1.1 but, by nature of them being
      identities, additional derived identities MAY be defined by future
      efforts.

   *  Identities used to specify uncommon formats are enabled by
      "feature" statements, allowing applications to support them when
      needed.

2.1.3.  Typedefs

   The following diagram illustrates the relationship amongst the
   "typedef" statements defined in the "ietf-crypto-types" module:

   Typedefs:
     binary

   The diagram above uses syntax that is similar to but not the same as
   that in [RFC8340].

   Comments:

   *  All the typedefs defined in the "ietf-crypto-types" module extend
      the "binary" type defined in [RFC7950].

   *  Additionally, all the typedefs define a type for encoding an ASN.1
      [ITU.X680.2021] structure using DER [ITU.X690.2021].

   *  The "trust-anchor-*" and "end-entity-*" typedefs are syntactically
      identical to their base typedefs and only distinguish themselves
      by the expected nature of their content.  These typedefs are
      defined to facilitate common modeling needs.

2.1.4.  Groupings

   The "ietf-crypto-types" module defines the following "grouping"
   statements:

   *  encrypted-value-grouping
   *  password-grouping

   *  symmetric-key-grouping
   *  public-key-grouping
   *  private-key-grouping
   *  asymmetric-key-pair-grouping
   *  certificate-expiration-grouping
   *  trust-anchor-cert-grouping
   *  end-entity-cert-grouping
   *  generate-csr-grouping
   *  asymmetric-key-pair-with-cert-grouping
   *  asymmetric-key-pair-with-certs-grouping

   Each of these groupings are presented in the following subsections.

2.1.4.1.  The "encrypted-value-grouping" Grouping

   The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "encrypted-
   value-grouping" grouping:

     grouping encrypted-value-grouping:
       +-- encrypted-by
       +-- encrypted-value-format    identityref
       +-- encrypted-value           binary

   Comments:

   *  The "encrypted-by" node is an empty container (difficult to see in
      the diagram) that a consuming module MUST augment key references
      into.  The "ietf-crypto-types" module is unable to populate this
      container as the module only defines groupings.  Section 2.2.1
      presents an example illustrating a consuming module populating the
      "encrypted-by" container.

   *  The "encrypted-value" node is the value, encrypted by the key
      referenced by the "encrypted-by" node, and encoded in the format
      appropriate for the kind of key it was encrypted by.

      -  If the value is encrypted by a symmetric key, then the
         encrypted value is encoded using the format associated with the
         "symmetrically-encrypted-value-format" identity.

      -  If the value is encrypted by an asymmetric key, then the
         encrypted value is encoded using the format associated with the
         "asymmetrically-encrypted-value-format" identity.

      See Section 2.1.2 for information about the "format" identities.

2.1.4.2.  The "password-grouping" Grouping

   This section presents a tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrating the
   "password-grouping" grouping.  This tree diagram does not expand the
   internally used grouping statement(s):

     grouping password-grouping:
       +-- (password-type)
          +--:(cleartext-password) {cleartext-passwords}?
          |  +-- cleartext-password?   string
          +--:(encrypted-password) {encrypted-passwords}?
             +-- encrypted-password
                +---u encrypted-value-grouping

   Comments:

   *  The "password-grouping" enables configuration of credentials
      needed to authenticate to a remote system.  The 'ianach:crypt-
      hash' typedef from [RFC7317] should be used instead when needing
      to configure a password to authencate a local account.

   *  For the referenced grouping statement(s):

      -  The "encrypted-value-grouping" grouping is discussed in
         Section 2.1.4.1.

   *  The "choice" statement enables the password data to be cleartext
      or encrypted, as follows:

      -  The "cleartext-password" node can encode any cleartext value.
      -  The "encrypted-password" node's structure is discussed in
         Section 2.1.4.1.

2.1.4.3.  The "symmetric-key-grouping" Grouping

   This section presents a tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrating the
   "symmetric-key-grouping" grouping.  This tree diagram does not expand
   the internally used grouping statement(s):

                +---u encrypted-value-grouping

   Comments:

   *  For the referenced grouping statement(s):

      -  The "encrypted-value-grouping" grouping is discussed in
         Section 2.1.4.1.

   *  The "key-format" node is an identity-reference to the "symmetric-
      key-format" abstract base identity discussed in Section 2.1.2,
      enabling the symmetric key to be encoded using any of the formats
      defined by the derived identities.

   *  The "choice" statement enables the private key data to be
      cleartext, encrypted, or hidden, as follows:

      -  The "cleartext-symmetric-key" node can encode any cleartext key
         value.
      -  The "hidden-symmetric-key" node is of type "empty" as the real
         value cannot be presented via the management interface.
      -  The "encrypted-symmetric-key" node's structure is discussed in
         Section 2.1.4.1.

2.1.4.4.  The "public-key-grouping" Grouping

   This section presents a tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrating the
   "public-key-grouping" grouping.  This tree diagram does not expand
   any internally used grouping statement(s):

     grouping public-key-grouping:
       +-- public-key-format    identityref
       +-- public-key           binary

   Comments:

Internet-Draft  YANG Data Types and Groupings for Crypto      March 2024

   *  The "public-key-format" node is an identity-reference to the
      "public-key-format" abstract base identity discussed in
      Section 2.1.2, enabling the public key to be encoded using any of
      the formats defined by the derived identities.

   *  The "public-key" node is the public key data in the selected
      format.  No "choice" statement is used to hide or encrypt the
      public key data because it is unnecessary to do so for public
      keys.

2.1.4.5.  The "private-key-grouping" Grouping

   This section presents a tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrating the
   "private-key-grouping" grouping.  This tree diagram does not expand
   the internally used grouping statement(s):

     grouping private-key-grouping:

         value.
      -  The "hidden-private-key" node is of type "empty" as the real
         value cannot be presented via the management interface.

2.1.4.6.  The "asymmetric-key-pair-grouping" Grouping

   This section presents a tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrating the
   "asymmetric-key-pair-grouping" grouping.  This tree diagram does not
   expand the internally used grouping statement(s):

2.1.4.7.  The "certificate-expiration-grouping" Grouping

   The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "certificate-
   expiration-grouping" grouping:

     grouping certificate-expiration-grouping:
       +---n certificate-expiration
               {certificate-expiration-notification}?
          +-- expiration-date    yang:date-and-time

   Comments:

   *  This grouping's only purpose is to define the "certificate-
      expiration" notification statement, used by the groupings defined
      in Section 2.1.4.8 and Section 2.1.4.9.

   *  The "certificate-expiration" notification enables servers to
      notify clients when certificates are nearing expiration.

   *  The "expiration-date" node indicates when the designated
      certificate will (or did) expire.

   *  Identification of the certificate that is expiring is built into
      the notification itself.  For an example, please see
      Section 2.2.3.

        grouping", and "password-grouping" Groupings

   The following non-normative module is constructed in order to
   illustrate the use of the "symmetric-key-grouping" (Section 2.1.4.3),
   the "asymmetric-key-pair-with-certs-grouping" (Section 2.1.4.12), and
   the "password-grouping" (Section 2.1.4.2) grouping statements.

   Notably, this example module and associated configuration data
   illustrates that a hidden private key (ex-hidden-asymmetric-key) has
   been used to encrypt a symmetric key (ex-encrypted-one-symmetric-
   based-symmetric-key) that has been used to encrypt another private
   key (ex-encrypted-rsa-based-asymmetric-key).  Additionally, the
   symmetric key is also used to encrypt a password (ex-encrypted-

3.  Security Considerations

3.1.  No Support for CRMF

   This document uses PKCS #10 [RFC2986] for the "generate-certificate-
   signing-request" action.  The use of Certificate Request Message
   Format (CRMF) [RFC4211] was considered, but it was unclear if there
   was market demand for it.  If it is desired to support CRMF in the
   future, a backwards compatible solution can be defined at that time.

Internet-Draft  YANG Data Types and Groupings for Crypto      March 2024

3.2.  No Support for Key Generation

   Early revisions of this document included "rpc" statements for
   generating symmetric and asymmetric keys.  These statements were
   removed due to an inability to obtain consensus for how to
   generically identify the key-algorithm to use.  Hence, the solution
   presented in this document only supports keys to be configured via an
   external client.

   Separate protocol-specific modules can present protocol-specific key-
   generating RPCs (e.g., the "generate-public-key" RPC in
   [I-D.ietf-netconf-ssh-client-server] and
   [I-D.ietf-netconf-tls-client-server]).

3.3.  Unconstrained Public Key Usage

   This module defines the "public-key-grouping" grouping, which enables
   the configuration of public keys without constraints on their usage,
   e.g., what operations the key is allowed to be used for (encryption,
   verification, both).

   The "asymmetric-key-pair-grouping" grouping uses the aforementioned
   "public-key-grouping" grouping, and carries the same traits.

   The "asymmetric-key-pair-with-cert-grouping" grouping uses the
   aforementioned "asymmetric-key-pair-grouping" grouping, whereby
   associated certificates MUST constrain the usage of the public key
   according to local policy.

3.4.  Unconstrained Private Key Usage

   This module defines the "asymmetric-key-pair-grouping" grouping,
   which enables the configuration of private keys without constraints
   on their usage, e.g., what operations the key is allowed to be used
   for (e.g., signature, decryption, both).

   The "asymmetric-key-pair-with-cert-grouping" uses the aforementioned
   "asymmetric-key-pair-grouping" grouping, whereby configured
   certificates (e.g., identity certificates) may constrain the use of
   the public key according to local policy.

3.5.  Cleartext Passwords and Keys

   The module contained within this document enables, only when specific
   "feature" statements are enabled, for the cleartext value of
   passwords and keys to be stored in the configuration database.
   Storing cleartext values for passwords and keys is NOT RECOMMENDED.

Internet-Draft  YANG Data Types and Groupings for Crypto      March 2024

3.6.  Encrypting Passwords and Keys

   The module contained within this document enables cleartext passwords
   and keys to be encrypted via another key, either symmetric or
   asymmetric.  Both formats use a CMS structure (EncryptedData and
   EnvelopedData respectively), which allows any encryption algorithm to
   be used.

   To securely encrypt a password or key with a symmetric key, a proper
   block cipher mode such as an AEAD or CBC MUST be used.  This ensures
   that a random IV is part of the input, which guarantees that the
   output for encrypting the same password or key still produces a
   different unpredictable ciphertext.  This avoids leaking that some
   encrypted keys or passwords are the same and makes it much harder to
   pre-generate rainbow tables to brute force attack weak passwords.
   The ECB block cipher mode MUST NOT be used.

3.7.  Deletion of Cleartext Key Values

   This module defines storage for cleartext key values that SHOULD be
   zeroized when deleted, so as to prevent the remnants of their
   persisted storage locations from being analyzed in any meaningful
   way.

   The cleartext key values are the "cleartext-symmetric-key" node
   defined in the "symmetric-key-grouping" grouping (Section 2.1.4.3)
   and the "cleartext-private-key" node defined in the "asymmetric-key-
   pair-grouping" grouping ("Section 2.1.4.6).

3.8.  Considerations for the "ietf-crypto-types" YANG Module

   This section follows the template defined in Section 3.7.1 of
   [RFC8407].

   The YANG module in this document defines "grouping" statements that
   are designed to be accessed via YANG based management protocols, such
   as NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040].  Both of these protocols
   have mandatory-to-implement secure transport layers (e.g., SSH, TLS)
   with mutual authentication.

   The Network Access Control Model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means
   to restrict access for particular users to a pre-configured subset of
   all available protocol operations and content.

   Since the module in this document only defines groupings, these
   considerations are primarily for the designers of other modules that
   use these groupings.

Internet-Draft  YANG Data Types and Groupings for Crypto      March 2024

   Some of the readable data nodes defined in this YANG module may be
   considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments.  It
   is thus important to control read access (e.g., via get, get-config,
   or notification) to these data nodes.  The following subtrees and
   data nodes have particular sensitivity/vulnerability:

   *  The "cleartext-password" node:

         The "cleartext-password" node defined in the "password-
         grouping" grouping is additionally sensitive to read operations
         such that, in normal use cases, it should never be returned to
         a client.  For this reason, the NACM extension "default-deny-
         all" has been applied to it.

   *  The "cleartext-symmetric-key" node:

         The "cleartext-symmetric-key" node defined in the "symmetric-
         key-grouping" grouping is additionally sensitive to read
         operations such that, in normal use cases, it should never be
         returned to a client.  For this reason, the NACM extension
         "default-deny-all" has been applied to it.

   *  The "cleartext-private-key" node:

         The "cleartext-private-key" node defined in the "asymmetric-
         key-pair-grouping" grouping is additionally sensitive to read
         operations such that, in normal use cases, it should never be
         returned to a client.  For this reason, the NACM extension
         "default-deny-all" has been applied.

   *  The "cert-data" node:

         The "cert-data" node, defined in both the "trust-anchor-cert-
         grouping" and "end-entity-cert-grouping" groupings, is
         additionally sensitive to read operations, as certificates may
         provide insight into which other resources/applications/servers
         this particular server communicates with, as well as
         potentially divulge personally identifying information (e.g.,
         end-entity certificates).  For this reason, the NACM extension
         "default-deny-all" has been applied.

   All the writable data nodes defined by all the groupings defined in
   this module may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network
   environments.  For instance, even the modification of a public key or
   a certificate can dramatically alter the implemented security policy.
   For this reason, the NACM extension "default-deny-write" has been
   applied to all the data nodes defined in the module.

Internet-Draft  YANG Data Types and Groupings for Crypto      March 2024

   Some of the operations in this YANG module may be considered
   sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments.  It is thus
   important to control access to these operations.  These are the
   operations and their sensitivity/vulnerability:

   *  generate-certificate-signing-request:

         This "action" statement SHOULD only be executed by authorized
         users.  For this reason, the NACM extension "default-deny-all"
         has been applied.  Note that NACM uses "default-deny-all" to
         protect "RPC" and "action" statements; it does not define,
         e.g., an extension called "default-deny-execute".

         For this action, it is RECOMMENDED that implementations assert
         channel binding [RFC5056], so as to ensure that the application
         layer that sent the request is the same as the device
         authenticated when the secure transport layer was established.

4.  IANA Considerations

4.1.  The "IETF XML" Registry

   This document registers one URI in the "ns" subregistry of the "IETF
   XML" registry [RFC3688].  Following the format in [RFC3688], the
   following registration is requested:

      URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-crypto-types
      Registrant Contact: The IESG
      XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.

4.2.  The "YANG Module Names" Registry

   This document registers one YANG module in the "YANG Module Names"
   registry [RFC6020].  Following the format in [RFC6020], the following
   registration is requested:

      name:         ietf-crypto-types
      namespace:    urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-crypto-types
      prefix:       ct

Internet-Draft  YANG Data Types and Groupings for Crypto      March 2024

   *  Added an explanation to the 'public-key-grouping' and 'asymmetric-
      key-pair-grouping' statements as for why the nodes are not
      mandatory (e.g., because they may exist only in <operational>.

   *  Added 'must' expressions to the 'public-key-grouping' and
      'asymmetric-key-pair-grouping' statements ensuring sibling nodes
      are either all exist or do not all exist.

      cannot be configured directly by clients and servers MUST fail any
      attempt to do so.

   *  Added 'trust-anchor-certs-grouping' and 'end-entity-certs-
      grouping' (the plural form of existing groupings).

   *  Now states that keys created in <operational> by the *-hidden-key

   *  Added clarifications that implementations SHOULD assert that
      configured certificates contain the matching public key.

   *  Added grouping symmetric-key-grouping

   *  Modified 'asymmetric-key-pair-grouping' to have a 'choice'
      statement for the keystone module to augment into, as well as
      replacing the 'union' with leafs (having different NACM settings.

A.10.  08 to 09

   *  Converting algorithm from identities to enumerations.

A.11.  09 to 10

   *  All the below changes are to the algorithm enumerations defined in

      algorithm-type modules.

A.14.  12 to 13

   *  Added the four features: "[encrypted-]one-[a]symmetric-key-
      format", each protecting a 'key-format' identity of the same name.

   *  Added 'must' expressions asserting that the 'key-format' leaf
