NETCONF Working Group K. Watsen Internet-Draft Watsen Networks Intended status: Standards Track 16 March 2024 Expires: 17 September 2024 A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Keystore Operations draft-ietf-netconf-keystore-35 Abstract This document presents a YANG module called "ietf-keystore" that enables centralized configuration of both symmetric and asymmetric keys. The secret value for both key types may be encrypted or hidden. Asymmetric keys may be associated with certificates. Notifications are sent when certificates are about to expire. 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 draft-ietf-netconf-crypto- types * CCCC --> 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. Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 1] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 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: * Appendix A.

Introduction This document presents a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] module called "ietf- keystore" that enables centralized configuration of both symmetric and asymmetric keys. The secret value for both key types may be encrypted or hidden (see [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types]). Asymmetric keys may be associated with certificates. Notifications are sent when certificates are about to expire. The "ietf-keystore" module defines many "grouping" statements intended for use by other modules that may import it. For instance, there are groupings that define enabling a key to be either configured inline (within the defining data model) or as a reference to a key in the central keystore. Special consideration has been given for servers that have cryptographic hardware, such as a Trusted Platform Module (TPM). These servers are unique in that the cryptographic hardware hides the secret key values. Additionally, such hardware is commonly initialized when manufactured to protect a "built-in" asymmetric key for which its public half is conveyed in an identity certificate (e.g., an IDevID [Std-802.1AR-2018] certificate). Please see Section 3 to see how built-in keys are supported. This document is intended to reflect existing practices that many server implementations support at the time of writing. To simplify implementation, advanced key formats may be selectively implemented. Implementations may utilize operating-system level keystore utilities (e.g., "Keychain Access" on MacOS) and/or cryptographic hardware (e.g., TPMs). Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 4] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 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. crypto-types ^ ^ / \ / \ truststore keystore ^ ^ ^ ^ | +---------+ | | | | | | | +------------+ | tcp-client-server | / | | ^ ^ ssh-client-server | | | | ^ tls-client-server | | | ^ ^ http-client-server | | | | | ^ | | | +-----+ +---------+ | | | | | | | | +-----------|--------|--------------+ | | | | | | | | +-----------+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | netconf-client-server restconf-client-server Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 5] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 +======================+===========================================+ |Label in Diagram | Originating RFC | +======================+===========================================+ |crypto-types | [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ |truststore | [I-D.ietf-netconf-trust-anchors] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ |keystore | [I-D.ietf-netconf-keystore] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ |tcp-client-server | [I-D.ietf-netconf-tcp-client-server] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ |ssh-client-server | [I-D.ietf-netconf-ssh-client-server] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ |tls-client-server | [I-D.ietf-netconf-tls-client-server] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ |http-client-server | [I-D.ietf-netconf-http-client-server] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ |netconf-client-server | [I-D.ietf-netconf-netconf-client-server] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ |restconf-client-server| [I-D.ietf-netconf-restconf-client-server] | +----------------------+-------------------------------------------+ Table 1: Label in Diagram to RFC Mapping 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. Terminology The terms "client" and "server" are defined in [RFC6241] and are not redefined here. The term "keystore" is defined in this document as a mechanism that intends to safeguard secrets. The nomenclature "<running>" and "<operational>" are defined in [RFC8342]. The sentence fragments "augmented" and "augmented in" are used herein as the past tense verbified form of the "augment" statement defined in Section 7.17 of [RFC7950]. Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 6] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 The term "key" may be used to mean one of three things in this document: 1) the YANG-defined "asymmetric-key" or "symmetric-key" node defined in this document, 2) the raw key data possessed by the aforementioned key nodes, and 3) the "key" of a YANG "list" statement. This document attempts to always qualify types '2' and '3' using, "raw key value" and "YANG list key" where needed. In all other cases, an unqualified "key" refers to a YANG-defined "asymmetric-key" or "symmetric-key" node. 1.4. Adherence to the NMDA This document is compliant with Network Management Datastore Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. For instance, keys and associated certificates installed during manufacturing (e.g., for an IDevID certificate) are expected to appear in <operational> (see Section 3). 1.5. 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. This document uses the adjective "central" to the word "keystore" to refer to the top-level instance of the "keystore-grouping", when the "central-keystore-supported" feature is enabled. Please be aware that consuming YANG modules MAY instantiate the "keystore-grouping" in other locations. All such other instances are not the "central" instance. 2. The "ietf-keystore" Module This section defines a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] module called "ietf- keystore". A high-level overview of the module is provided in Section 2.1. Examples illustrating the module's use are provided in 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-keystore" module in terms of its features, typedefs, groupings, and protocol-accessible nodes. 2.1.1. Features The following diagram lists all the "feature" statements defined in the "ietf-keystore" module: Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 7] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 Features: +-- central-keystore-supported +-- inline-definitions-supported +-- asymmetric-keys +-- symmetric-keys The diagram above uses syntax that is similar to but not defined in [RFC8340]. 2.1.2. Typedefs The following diagram lists the "typedef" statements defined in the "ietf-keystore" module: Typedefs: leafref +-- central-symmetric-key-ref +-- central-asymmetric-key-ref The diagram above uses syntax that is similar to but not defined in [RFC8340]. Comments: * All the typedefs defined in the "ietf-keystore" module extend the base "leafref" type defined in [RFC7950]. * The leafrefs refer to symmetric and asymmetric keys in the central keystore, when this module is implemented. * These typedefs are provided as an aid to consuming modules that import the "ietf-keystore" module. 2.1.3. Groupings The "ietf-keystore" module defines the following "grouping" statements: * encrypted-by-grouping * central-asymmetric-key-certificate-ref-grouping * inline-or-keystore-symmetric-key-grouping * inline-or-keystore-asymmetric-key-grouping * inline-or-keystore-asymmetric-key-with-certs-grouping * inline-or-keystore-end-entity-cert-with-key-grouping * keystore-grouping Each of these groupings are presented in the following subsections. Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 8] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 2.1.3.1. The "encrypted-by-grouping" Grouping The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "encrypted-by- grouping" grouping: grouping encrypted-by-grouping: +-- (encrypted-by) +--:(central-symmetric-key-ref) | {central-keystore-supported,symmetric-keys}? | +-- symmetric-key-ref? ks:central-symmetric-key-ref +--:(central-asymmetric-key-ref) {central-keystore-supported,asymmetric-keys}? +-- asymmetric-key-ref? ks:central-asymmetric-key-ref Comments: * This grouping defines a "choice" statement with options to reference either a symmetric or an asymmetric key configured in the keystore. * This grouping is usable only when the keystore module is implemented. Servers defining custom keystore locations MUST augment in alternate "encrypted-by" references to the alternate locations. 2.1.3.2. The "central-asymmetric-key-certificate-ref-grouping" Grouping The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "central- asymmetric-key-certificate-ref-grouping" grouping: grouping central-asymmetric-key-certificate-ref-grouping: +-- asymmetric-key? ks:central-asymmetric-key-ref | {central-keystore-supported,asymmetric-keys}? +-- certificate? leafref Comments: * This grouping defines a reference to a certificate in two parts: the first being the name of the asymmetric key the certificate is associated with, and the second being the name of the certificate itself. * This grouping is usable only when the keystore module is implemented. Servers defining custom keystore locations can define an alternate grouping for references to the alternate locations.

Each option is enabled by a "feature" statement. Additional "case" statements MAY be augmented in if, e.g., there is a need to reference a symmetric key in an alternate location. * For the "inline-definition" option, the definition uses the "symmetric-key-grouping" grouping discussed in Section 2.1.4.3 of [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types]. * For the "central-keystore" option, the "central-keystore- reference" is an instance of the "symmetric-key-ref" discussed in Section 2.1.2. 2.1.3.4.

Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 15] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 * The reason for why "keystore-grouping" exists separate from the protocol-accessible nodes definition is so as to enable instances of the keystore to be instantiated in other locations, as may be needed or desired by some modules. 2.2.

Support for Built-in Keys In some implementations, a server may support keys built into the server. Built-in keys MAY be set during the manufacturing process or be dynamically generated the first time the server is booted or a particular service (e.g., SSH) is enabled. Built-in keys are "hidden" keys expected to be set by a vendor- specific process. Any ability for operators to set and/or modify built-in keys is outside the scope of this document. The primary characteristic of the built-in keys is that they are provided by the server, as opposed to configuration. As such, they are present in <operational> (Section 5.3 of [RFC8342]), and <system> [I-D.ietf-netmod-system-config], if implemented. The example below illustrates what the keystore in <operational> might look like for a server in its factory default state. Note that the built-in keys have the "or:origin" annotation value "or:system". =============== NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 ================ <keystore xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-keystore" xmlns:ct="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-crypto-types" xmlns:or="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-origin" or:origin="or:intended"> <asymmetric-keys> <asymmetric-key or:origin="or:system"> <name>Manufacturer-Generated Hidden Key</name> <public-key-format>ct:subject-public-key-info-format</public-k\ ey-format> <public-key>BASE64VALUE=</public-key> <hidden-private-key/> <certificates> <certificate> <name>Manufacturer-Generated IDevID Cert</name> <cert-data>BASE64VALUE=</cert-data> </certificate> </certificates> </asymmetric-key> </asymmetric-keys> </keystore> Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 36] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 The following example illustrates how a single built-in key definition from the previous example has been propagated to <running>: =============== NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 ================ <keystore xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-keystore" xmlns:ct="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-crypto-types"> <asymmetric-keys> <asymmetric-key> <name>Manufacturer-Generated Hidden Key</name> <public-key-format>ct:subject-public-key-info-format</public-k\ ey-format> <public-key>BASE64VALUE=</public-key> <hidden-private-key/> <certificates> <certificate> <name>Manufacturer-Generated IDevID Cert</name> <cert-data>BASE64VALUE=</cert-data> </certificate> <certificate> <name>Deployment-Specific LDevID Cert</name> <cert-data>BASE64VALUE=</cert-data> </certificate> </certificates> </asymmetric-key> </asymmetric-keys> </keystore> After the above configuration is applied, <operational> should appear as follows: Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 37] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 =============== NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 ================ <keystore xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-keystore" xmlns:ct="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-crypto-types" xmlns:or="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-origin" or:origin="or:intended"> <asymmetric-keys> <asymmetric-key or:origin="or:system"> <name>Manufacturer-Generated Hidden Key</name> <public-key-format>ct:subject-public-key-info-format</public-k\ ey-format> <public-key>BASE64VALUE=</public-key> <hidden-private-key/> <certificates> <certificate> <name>Manufacturer-Generated IDevID Cert</name> <cert-data>BASE64VALUE=</cert-data> </certificate> <certificate or:origin="or:intended"> <name>Deployment-Specific LDevID Cert</name> <cert-data>BASE64VALUE=</cert-data> </certificate> </certificates> </asymmetric-key> </asymmetric-keys> </keystore> 4. Encrypting Keys in Configuration This section describes an approach that enables both the symmetric and asymmetric keys on a server to be encrypted, such that traditional backup/restore procedures can be used without concern for raw key data being compromised when in transit. The approach presented in this section is not normative. This section answers how a configuration containing secrets that are encrypted by a built-in key (Section 3) can be backup'ed from one server and restored on a different server, when each server has unique master keys. The API defined by the "ietf-keystore" YANG module presented in this document is sufficient to support the workflow described in this section. Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 38] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 4.1. Key Encryption Key The ability to encrypt configured keys is predicated on the existence of a "key encryption key" (KEK). There may be any number of KEKs in a server. A KEK, by its namesake, is a key that is used to encrypt other keys. A KEK MAY be either a symmetric key or an asymmetric key. If a KEK is a symmetric key, then the server MUST provide an API for administrators to encrypt other keys without needing to know the symmetric key's value. If the KEK is an asymmetric key, then the server SHOULD provide an API enabling the encryption of other keys or, alternatively, assume the administrators can do so themselves using the asymmetric key's public half. A server MUST possess access to the KEK, or an API using the KEK, so that it can decrypt the other keys in the configuration at runtime. 4.2. Configuring Encrypted Keys Each time a new key is configured, it SHOULD be encrypted by a KEK. In "ietf-crypto-types" [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types], the format for encrypted values is described by identity statements derived from the "symmetrically-encrypted-value-format" and "asymmetrically- encrypted-value-format" identity statements. Implementations of servers implementing the "ietf-keystore" module SHOULD provide an API that simultaneously generates a key and encrypts the generated key using a KEK. Thus the cleartext value of the newly generated key may never be known to the administrators generating the keys. Such API is defined in the "ietf-ssh-common" and the "ietf-tls-common" YANG modules defined in [I-D.ietf-netconf-ssh-client-server], and [I-D.ietf-netconf-tls-client-server], respectively. In case the server implementation does not provide such an API, then the generating and encrypting steps MAY be performed outside the server, e.g., by an administrator with special access control rights (e.g., an organization's crypto officer). In either case, the encrypted key can be configured into the keystore using either the "encrypted-symmetric-key" (for symmetric keys) or the "encrypted-private-key" (for asymmetric keys) nodes. These two nodes contain both the encrypted raw key value as well as a reference to the KEK that encrypted the key. Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 39] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 4.3. Migrating Configuration to Another Server When a KEK is used to encrypt other keys, migrating the configuration to another server is only possible if the second server has the same KEK. How the second server comes to have the same KEK is discussed in this section. In some deployments, mechanisms outside the scope of this document may be used to migrate a KEK from one server to another. That said, beware that the ability to do so typically entails having access to the first server but, in some scenarios, the first server may no longer be operational. In other deployments, an organization's crypto officer, possessing a KEK's cleartext value, configures the same KEK on the second server, presumably as a hidden key or a key protected by access-control, so that the cleartext value is not disclosed to regular administrators. However, this approach creates high-coupling to and dependency on the crypto officers that does not scale in production environments. In order to decouple the crypto officers from the regular administrators, a special KEK, called the "master key" (MK), may be used. A MK is commonly a globally-unique built-in (see Section 3) asymmetric key. The private raw key value, due to its long lifetime, is hidden (i.e., "hidden-private-key" in Section 2.1.4.5. of [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types]). The raw public key value is often contained in an identity certificate (e.g., IDevID). How to configure a MK during the manufacturing process is outside the scope of this document. Assuming the server has a MK, the MK can be used to encrypt a "shared KEK", which is then used to encrypt the keys configured by regular administrators. With this extra level of indirection, it is possible for a crypto officer to encrypt the same KEK for a multiplicity of servers offline using the public key contained in their identity certificates. The crypto officer can then safely handoff the encrypted KEKs to regular administrators responsible for server installations, including migrations. In order to migrate the configuration from a first server, an administrator would need to make just a single modification to the configuration before loading it onto a second server, which is to replace the encrypted KEK keystore entry from the first server with the encrypted KEK for the second server. Upon doing this, the Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 40] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 configuration (containing many encrypted keys) can be loaded into the second server while enabling the second server to decrypt all the encrypted keys in the configuration. The following diagram illustrates this idea: Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 41] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 +-------------+ +-------------+ | shared KEK | | shared KEK | |(unencrypted)|-------------------------------> | (encrypted) | +-------------+ encrypts offline using +-------------+ ^ each server's MK | | | | | | possesses \o | +-------------- |\ | / \ shares with | crypto +--------------------+ officer | | | +----------------------+ | +----------------------+ | server-1 | | | server-2 | | configuration | | | configuration | | | | | | | | | | | | +----------------+ | | | +----------------+ | | | MK-1 | | | | | MK-2 | | | | (hidden) | | | | | (hidden) | | | +----------------+ | | | +----------------+ | | ^ | | | ^ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | encrypted | | | | encrypted | | | by | | | | by | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +----------------+ | | | +----------------+ | | | shared KEK | | | | | shared KEK | | | | (encrypted) | | v | | (encrypted) | | | +----------------+ | | +----------------+ | | ^ | regular | ^ | | | | admin | | | | | | | | | | | encrypted | \o | | encrypted | | | by | |\ | | by | | | | / \ | | | | | | | | | | +----------------+ |----------------->| +----------------+ | | | all other keys | | migrate | | all other keys | | | | (encrypted) | | configuration | | (encrypted) | | | +----------------+ | | +----------------+ | | | | | +----------------------+ +----------------------+ Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 42] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 5. Security Considerations 5.1. Security of Data at Rest and in Motion The YANG module defined in this document defines a mechanism called a "keystore" that intends to protect its contents from unauthorized disclosure and modification. In order to satisfy the expectations of a "keystore", it is RECOMMENDED that server implementations ensure that the keystore contents are encrypted when persisted to non-volatile memory, and ensure that the keystore contents that have been decrypted in volatile memory are zeroized when not in use. The keystore contents may be encrypted either by encrypting the contents individually (e.g., using the "encrypted" value formats) or, in case cleartext values are used (which is NOT RECOMMENDED per Section 3.5 of [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types]), then, e.g., disk- level encryption may be used. If the keystore contents are not encrypted when persisted, then server implementations MUST ensure the persisted storage is inaccessible. 5.2. Unconstrained Private Key Usage This module 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). This module also does not constrain the usage of the associated public keys, other than in the context of a configured certificate (e.g., an identity certificate), in which case the key usage is constrained by the certificate. 5.3. Considerations for the "ietf-keystore" YANG Module This section follows the template defined in Section 3.7.1 of [RFC8407]. The YANG module defined in this document is 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. Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 43] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 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. Please be aware that this YANG module uses groupings from other YANG modules that define nodes that may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in network environments. Please review the Security Considerations for dependent YANG modules for information as to which nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in network environments. 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-symmetric-key" node: The "cleartext-symmetric-key" node, imported from the "symmetric-key-grouping" grouping defined in [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types] 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" was applied to it in [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types]. * The "cleartext-private-key" node: The "cleartext-private-key" node defined in the "asymmetric- key-pair-grouping" grouping defined in [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types] 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" is applied to it in [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types]. All the writable data nodes defined by this module, both in the "grouping" statements as well as the protocol-accessible "keystore" instance, may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. For instance, any modification to a key or reference to a key may dramatically alter the implemented security policy. For this reason, the NACM extension "default-deny-write" has been set for all data nodes defined in this module. This module does not define any "rpc" or "action" statements, and thus the security considerations for such is not provided here. Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 44] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 Built-in key types SHOULD be either hidden and/or encrypted (not cleartext). If this is not possible, access control mechanisms like NACM SHOULD be used to limit access to the key's secret data to only the most trusted authorized clients (e.g., belonging to an organization’s crypto officer). 6.

A.9. 08 to 09 * Added a 'description' statement to the 'must' in the /keystore/ asymmetric-key node explaining that the descendant values may exist in <operational> only, and that implementation MUST assert that the values are either configured or that they exist in <operational>. * Copied above 'must' statement (and description) into the inline- or-keystore-asymmetric-key-grouping, inline-or-keystore- asymmetric-key-with-certs-grouping, and inline-or-keystore-end- entity-cert-with-key-grouping statements. A.10. 09 to 10 * Updated draft title to match new truststore draft title * Moved everything under a top-level 'grouping' to enable use in other contexts. * Renamed feature from 'local-keys-supported' to 'inline- definitions-supported' (same name used in truststore) * Removed the either-all-or-none 'must' expressions for the key's 3-tuple values (since the values are now 'mandatory true' in crypto-types) * Example updated to reflect 'mandatory true' change in crypto-types draft Watsen Expires 17 September 2024 [Page 50] Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore and Key March 2024 A.11. 10 to 11 * Replaced typedef asymmetric-key-certificate-ref with grouping asymmetric-key-certificate-ref-grouping. * Added feature feature 'key-generation'. * Cloned groupings symmetric-key-grouping, asymmetric-key-pair- grouping, asymmetric-key-pair-with-cert-grouping, and asymmetric- key-pair-with-certs-grouping from crypto-keys, augmenting into each new case statements for values that have been encrypted by other keys in the keystore. Refactored keystore model to use these groupings. * Added new 'symmetric-keys' lists, as a sibling to the existing 'asymmetric-keys' list. * Added RPCs (not actions) 'generate-symmetric-key' and 'generate- asymmetric-key' to *return* a (potentially encrypted) key. A.12. 11 to 12 * Updated to reflect crypto-type's draft using enumerations over identities. * Added examples for the 'generate-symmetric-key' and 'generate- asymmetric-key' RPCs. * Updated the Introduction section. A.13. 12 to 13 * Updated examples to incorporate new "key-format" identities. * Made the two "generate-*-key" RPCs be "action" statements instead. A.14. 13 to 14 * Updated YANG module and examples to incorporate the new iana-*-algorithm modules in the crypto-types draft. A.15. 14 to 15 * Added new "Support for Built-in Keys" section. * Added 'must' expressions asserting that the 'key-format' leaf whenever an encrypted key is specified.

A.16. 15 to 16 * Moved the generate key actions to ietf-crypt-types as RPCs, which are augmented by ietf-keystore to support encrypted keys. Examples updated accordingly. * Added a SSH certificate-based key (RFC 6187) and a raw private key to the example instance document (partly so they could be referenced by examples in the SSH and TLS client/server drafts. A.17. 16 to 17 * Removed augments to the "generate-symmetric-key" and "generate- asymmetric-key" groupings. * Removed "generate-symmetric-key" and "generate-asymmetric-key" examples. * Removed the "algorithm" nodes from remaining examples. * Updated the "Support for Built-in Keys" section. * Added new section "Encrypting Keys in Configuration". * Added a "Note to Reviewers" note to first page. A.18. 17 to 18 * Removed dangling/unnecessary ref to RFC 8342. * r/MUST/SHOULD/ wrt strength of keys being configured over transports. * Added an example for the "certificate-expiration" notification. * Clarified that OS MAY have a multiplicity of underlying keystores and/or TPMs. * Clarified expected behavior for "built-in" keys in <operational> * Clarified the "Migrating Configuration to Another Server" section. * Expanded "Data Model Overview section(s) [remove "wall" of tree diagrams]. * Updated the Security Considerations section.
