Remote ATtestation ProcedureS H. Birkholz Internet-Draft Fraunhofer SIT Intended status: Standards Track N. Smith Expires: 30 August 2024 Intel T. Fossati Linaro H. Tschofenig 27 February 2024 RATS Conceptual Messages Wrapper (CMW) draft-ietf-rats-msg-wrap-04 Abstract This document defines the RATS conceptual message wrapper (CMW) format, a type of encapsulation format that can be used for any RATS messages, such as Evidence, Attestation Results, Endorsements, and Reference Values. Additionally, the document describes a collection type that enables the aggregation of one or more CMWs into a single message. This document also defines corresponding CBOR tag, JSON Web Tokens (JWT) and CBOR Web Tokens (CWT) claims, as well as an X.509 extension. These allow embedding the wrapped conceptual messages into CBOR-based protocols, web APIs, and PKIX protocols. Discussion Venues This note is to be removed before publishing as an RFC.

Introduction The RATS architecture defines a handful of conceptual messages (see Section 8 of [RFC9334]), such as Evidence and Attestation Results. Each conceptual message can have multiple claims encoding and serialization formats (Section 9 of [RFC9334]). Throughout their lifetime, RATS conceptual messages are typically transported over different protocols. For example, * EAT [I-D.ietf-rats-eat] Evidence in a "background check" topological arrangement first flows from Attester to Relying Party, and then from Relying Party to Verifier, over separate protocol legs. * Attestation Results for Secure Interactions (AR4SI) [I-D.ietf-rats-ar4si] payloads in "passport" mode would be sent by the Verifier to the Attester and then, at a later point in time and over a different channel, from the Attester to the Relying Party. It is desirable to reuse any typing information associated with the messages across such protocol boundaries to minimize the cost associated with type registrations and maximize interoperability. With the CMW format described in this document, protocol designers do not need to update protocol specifications to support different conceptual messages. This approach reduces the implementation effort for developers to support different attestation technologies. For Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 3] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 example, an implementer of a Relying Party application does not need to parse attestation-related conceptual messages, such as different Evidence formats, but can instead utilize the CMW format to be agnostic to the attestation technology. This document defines two encapsulation formats for RATS conceptual messages that aim to achieve the goals stated above. These encapsulation formats have been specifically designed to possess the following characteristics: * They are self-describing, which means that they can convey precise typing information without relying on the framing provided by the embedding protocol or the storage system. * They are based on media types [RFC6838], which allows the cost of their registration to be spread across numerous usage scenarios. A protocol designer could use these formats, for example, to convey Evidence, Endorsements and Reference Values in certificates and CRLs extensions ([DICE-arch]), to embed Attestation Results or Evidence as first-class authentication credentials in TLS handshake messages [I-D.fossati-tls-attestation], to transport attestation-related payloads in RESTful APIs, or for stable storage of Attestation Results in the form of file system objects. This document also defines corresponding CBOR tag, JSON Web Tokens (JWT) and CBOR Web Tokens (CWT) claims, as well as an X.509 extension. These allow embedding the wrapped conceptual messages into CBOR-based protocols, web APIs, and PKIX protocols. 2. Conventions and Definitions 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. In this document, CDDL [RFC8610] [RFC9165] is used to describe the data formats. The reader is assumed to be familiar with the vocabulary and concepts defined in [RFC9334]. This document reuses the terms defined in Section 2 of [RFC9193] (e.g., "Content-Type"). Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 4] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 3. Conceptual Message Wrapper Encodings Two types of RATS Conceptual Message Wrapper (CMW) are specified in this document: 1. A CMW using a CBOR or JSON record (Section 3.1); 2. A CMW based on CBOR tags (Section 3.2). A further CMW "collection" type that holds together multiple CMW items is defined in Section 3.3. A CMW "tunnel" type is also defined in Section 3.4 to allow transporting CBOR CMWs in JSON collections and vice-versa. The collected CDDL is in Appendix A. 3.1. CMW Record The format of the CMW record is shown in Figure 1. The JSON [STD90] and CBOR [STD94] representations are provided separately. Both the json-record and cbor-record have the same fields except for slight differences in the types discussed below. json-record = [ type: media-type value: base64-string ? ind: uint .bits cm-type ] cbor-record = [ type: coap-content-format-type / media-type value: bytes ? ind: uint .bits cm-type ] Figure 1: CDDL definition of the Record format Each contains two or three members: type: Either a text string representing a Content-Type (e.g., an EAT media type [I-D.ietf-rats-eat-media-type]) or an unsigned integer corresponding to a CoAP Content-Format number (Section 12.3 of [RFC7252]). The latter MUST NOT be used in the JSON serialization. value: Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 5] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 The RATS conceptual message serialized according to the value defined in the type member. When using JSON, the value field MUST be encoded as Base64 using the URL and filename safe alphabet (Section 5 of [RFC4648]) without padding. This always applies, even if the conceptual message format is already textual (e.g., a JWT EAT). When using CBOR, the value field MUST be encoded as a CBOR byte string. ind: An optional bitmap that indicates which conceptual message types are carried in the value field. Any combination (i.e., any value between 1 and 15, included) is allowed. This is useful only if the type is potentially ambiguous and there is no further context available to the CMW consumer to decide. For example, this might be the case if the base media type is not profiled (e.g., application/eat+cwt), if the value field contains multiple conceptual messages with different types (e.g., both Reference Values and Endorsements within the same application/signed- corim+cbor), or if the same profile identifier is shared by different conceptual messages. Future specifications may add new values to the ind field; see Section 8.4. 3.2. CMW CBOR Tags CBOR Tags used as CMW may be derived from CoAP Content-Format numbers. If a CoAP content format exists for a RATS conceptual message, the TN() transform defined in Appendix B of [RFC9277] can be used to derive a corresponding CBOR tag in range [1668546817, 1668612095]. The RATS conceptual message is first serialized according to the Content-Format number associated with the CBOR tag and then encoded as a CBOR byte string, to which the tag is prepended. The CMW CBOR Tag is defined in Figure 2. cbor-tag = #6.<0..18446744073709551615>(bytes) Figure 2: CDDL definition of the CBOR Tag format 3.2.1. Use of Pre-existing CBOR Tags If a CBOR tag has been registered in association with a certain RATS conceptual message independently of a CoAP content format (i.e., it is not obtained by applying the TN() transform), it can be readily used as an encapsulation without the extra processing described in Section 3.2. Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 6] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 A consumer can always distinguish tags that have been derived via TN(), which all fall in the [1668546817, 1668612095] range, from tags that are not, and therefore apply the right decapsulation on receive. 3.3. CMW Collections Layered Attesters and composite devices (Sections 3.2 and 3.3 of [RFC9334]) generate Evidence that consists of multiple parts. For example, in data center servers, it is not uncommon for separate attesting environments (AE) to serve a subsection of the entire machine. One AE might measure and attest to what was booted on the main CPU, while another AE might measure and attest to what was booted on a SmartNIC plugged into a PCIe slot, and a third AE might measure and attest to what was booted on the machine's GPU. To address the composite Attester use case, this document defines a CMW "collection" as a container that holds several CMW items, each with a label that is unique within the scope of the collection. The CMW collection (Figure 3) is defined as a CBOR map or JSON object with CMW values, either native or "tunnelled" (Section 3.4). The position of a cmw entry in the cmw-collection is not significant. Instead, the labels identify a conceptual message that, in the case of a composite Attester, should typically correspond to a component of a system. Labels can be strings (or integers in the CBOR serialization) that serve as a mnemonic for different conceptual messages in the collection. The "__cmwc_t" key is reserved for associating an optional type to the overall collection and MUST NOT be used for a label. The collection type is either a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) or an object identifier (OID). The OID is always absolute and never relative. Since the collection type is recursive, implementations may limit the allowed depth of nesting. json-collection = { ? "__cmwc_t": ~uri / oid + text => json-CMW / c2j-tunnel } cbor-collection = { ? "__cmwc_t": ~uri / oid + (int / text) => cbor-CMW / j2c-tunnel } Figure 3: CDDL definition of the CMW collection format Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 7] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 Although initially designed for the composite Attester use case, the CMW collection can be repurposed for other use cases requiring CMW aggregation. 3.4. CMW Tunnel The CMW tunnel type (Figure 4) allows for moving a CMW in one serialization format, either JSON or CBOR, into a collection that uses the opposite serialization format. Both tunnel types are arrays with two elements. The first element, a fixed text string starting with a #, acts as a sentinel value. The #, which is not an acceptable start symbol for the Content-Type production (Appendix A), makes it possible to disambiguate a CMW tunnel from a CMW record. c2j-tunnel = [ "#cmw-c2j-tunnel", base64-string ] j2c-tunnel = [ "#cmw-j2c-tunnel", bytes ] Figure 4: CDDL definition of the CMW tunnel format The conversion algorithms are described in the following subsections. 3.4.1. CBOR-to-JSON The CBOR byte string of the serialised CBOR CMW is encoded as Base64 using the URL and filename safe alphabet (Section 5 of [RFC4648]) without padding. The obtained string is added as the second element of the c2j-tunnel array. The c2j-tunnel array is serialized as JSON. 3.4.2. JSON-to-CBOR The UTF-8 string of the serialized JSON CMW is encoded as a CBOR byte string (Major type 2). The byte string is added as the second element of the j2c-tunnel array. The j2c-tunnel array is serialized as CBOR. 3.5. Decapsulation Algorithm Once any external framing is removed (for example, if the CMW is carried in a certificate extension), the CMW decoder performs a 1-byte lookahead to determine how to decode the remaining byte buffer. The following pseudo-code illustrates this process: Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 8] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 func CMWTypeSniff(b []byte) (CMW, error) { if len(b) == 0 { return Unknown } if b[0] == 0x82 || b[0] == 0x83 { return CBORRecord } else if b[0] >= 0xc0 && b[0] <= 0xdb { return CBORTag } else if b[0] == 0x5b { return JSONRecord } else if b[0] == 0x7b { return JSONCollection } else if (b[0] >= 0xa0 && b[0] <= 0xbb) || b[0] == 0xbf { return CBORCollection } return Unknown } 4. Examples The (equivalent) examples in Section 4.1, Section 4.2, and Section 4.3 assume that the Media-Type-Name application/ vnd.example.rats-conceptual-msg has been registered alongside a corresponding CoAP Content-Format number 30001. The CBOR tag 1668576818 is derived applying the TN() transform as described in Section 3.2. The example in Section 4.4 is a signed CoRIM payload with an explicit CM indicator 0b0000_0011 (3), meaning that the wrapped message contains both Reference Values and Endorsements. 4.1. JSON Record [ "application/vnd.example.rats-conceptual-msg", "q82rzQ" ] Note that a CoAP Content-Format number can also be used with the JSON record form. That may be the case when it is known that the receiver can handle CoAP Content-Formats and it is crucial to save bytes. 4.2. CBOR Record Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 9] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 [ 30001, h'2347da55' ] with the following wire representation: 82 # array(2) 19 7531 # unsigned(30001) 44 # bytes(4) 2347da55 # "#G\xDAU" Note that a Media-Type-Name can also be used with the CBOR record form, for example if it is known that the receiver cannot handle CoAP Content-Formats, or (unlike the case in point) if a CoAP Content- Format number has not been registrered. [ "application/vnd.example.rats-conceptual-msg", h'2347da55' ] 4.3. CBOR Tag 1668576818(h'2347da55') with the following wire representation: da 63747632 # tag(1668576818) 44 # bytes(4) 2347da55 # "#G\xDAU" 4.4.

CBOR Collection The following example is a CBOR collection that assembles conceptual messages from three attesters: Evidence for attesters A and B and Attestation Results for attester C. It is given an explicit collection type using the URI form. { "attester A": [ 30001, h'2347da55', 4 ], "attester B": 1668576818(h'2347da55'), "attester C": [ "application/eat+jwt", h'4c693475', 8 ] } with the following wire representation: Birkholz, et al.

Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 12] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 { "attester A": [ "application/eat-ucs+json", "e30K", 4 ], "attester B": [ "application/eat-ucs+cbor", "oA", 4 ] } The following example shows the use of a tunnelled type to move a CBOR record to a JSON collection: { "attester A": [ "application/eat-ucs+json", "e30K", 4 ], "attester B (tunnelled)": [ "#cmw-c2j-tunnel", "g3gYYXBwbGljYXRpb24vZWF0LXVjcytjYm9yQaAE" ] } 4.7. Use in JWT The following example shows the use of the cmw JWT claim to transport a CMW collection in a JWT [RFC7519]: { "cmw": { "attester A": [ "application/eat-ucs+json", "e30K", 4 ], "attester B (tunnelled)": [ "#cmw-c2j-tunnel", "g3gYYXBwbGljYXRpb24vZWF0LXVjcytjYm9yQaAE" ] }, "iss": "evidence collection daemon", "exp": 1300819380 } Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 13] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 5. Transporting CMW in X.509 Messages There are cases where CMW need to be transported in PKIX messages, for example in Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs) [I-D.ietf-lamps-csr-attestation], or in X.509 Certificates and Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) [DICE-arch]. This section specifies the CMW extension to carry CMW objects. The CMW extension MAY be included in X.509 Certificates, CRLs [RFC5280], and CSRs. The CMW extension MUST be identified by the following object identifier: id-pe-cmw-collection OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { iso(1) identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1) security(5) mechanisms(5) pkix(7) id-pe(1) TBD } This extension MUST NOT be marked critical. The CMW extension MUST have the following syntax: CMW ::= CHOICE { json UTF8String, cbor OCTET STRING } The CMW MUST contain the serialized CMW object in JSON or CBOR format, using the appropriate CHOICE entry. The DER-encoded CMW is the value of the OCTET STRING for the extnValue field of the extension. 5.1. ASN.1 Module This section provides an ASN.1 module [X.680] for the CMW extension, following the conventions established in [RFC5912] and [RFC6268]. Birkholz, et al.

Compatibility with DICE ConceptualMessageWrapper Section 6.1.8 of [DICE-arch] defines the ConceptualMessageWrapper format and the associated object identifier. The CMW format defined in [DICE-arch] allows only a subset of the CMW grammar defined in this document. Specifically, the tunnel and collection formats cannot be encoded using DICE CMWs.

Security Considerations This document introduces two encapsulation formats for RATS conceptual messages. RATS conceptual messages are typically secured using cryptography. If the messages are already protected, then there are no additional security requirements imposed by the introduction of this encapsulation. If an adversary tries to modify the payload encapsulation, it will result in incorrect processing of the encapsulated message and lead to an error. If the messages are not protected, additional security must be added at a different layer. As an example, a CMW record containing an UCCS [I-D.ietf-rats-uccs] can be signed using COSE Sign1 [STD96]. Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 16] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 This document introduces a format for holding multiple CMW items in a collection. If the collection is not protected from tampering by external security measures (such as object security primitives) or internal mechanisms (such as intra-item binding), an attacker could easily manipulate the collection's contents. 8. IANA Considerations // RFC Editor: replace "RFCthis" with the RFC number assigned to this document. 8.1. CWT cmw Claim Registration IANA is requested to add a new cmw claim to the "CBOR Web Token (CWT) Claims" registry [IANA.cwt] as follows: * Claim Name: cmw * Claim Description: A RATS Conceptual Message Wrapper * Claim Key: TBD * Claim Value Type(s): CBOR Map, CBOR Array, or CBOR Tag * Change Controller: IETF * Specification Document(s): Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 of RFCthis The suggested value for the Claim Key is 299. 8.2. JWT cmw Claim Registration IANA is requested to add a new cmw claim to the "JSON Web Token Claims" sub-registry of the "JSON Web Token (JWT)" registry [IANA.jwt] as follows: * Claim Name: cmw * Claim Description: A RATS Conceptual Message Wrapper * Claim Value Type(s): JSON Object or JSON Array * Change Controller: IETF * Specification Document(s): Section 3.1 of RFCthis Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 17] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 8.3. CBOR Tag Registration IANA is requested to add the following tag to the "CBOR Tags" [IANA.cbor-tags] registry. +======+=================+=================+========================+ | CBOR | Data Item | Semantics | Reference | | Tag | | | | +======+=================+=================+========================+ | TBD | CBOR map, | RATS Conceptual | Section 3.1, | | | CBOR array, | Message Wrapper | Section 3.2 and | | | CBOR tag | | Section 3.3 of RFCthis | +------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------------+ Table 1 8.4. RATS Conceptual Message Wrapper (CMW) Indicators Registry This specification defines a new "RATS Conceptual Message Wrapper (CMW) Indicators" registry, with the policy "Expert Review" (Section 4.5 of [BCP26]). The objective is to have Indicators values registered for all RATS Conceptual Messages (Section 8 of [RFC9334]). 8.4.1. Instructions for the Designated Expert The expert is instructed to add the values incrementally. Acceptable values are those corresponding to RATS Conceptual Messages defined by the RATS architecture [RFC9334] and any of its updates. 8.4.2. Structure of Entries Each entry in the registry must include: Indicator value: A number corresponding to the bit position in the cm-ind bitmap. Conceptual Message name: A text string describing the RATS conceptual message this indicator corresponds to. Reference: A reference to a document, if available, or the registrant. The initial registrations for the registry are detailed in Table 2. Birkholz, et al.

Expires 30 August 2024 [Page 27] Internet-Draft RATS CMW February 2024 The definition of a CMW collection has been modelled on a proposal originally made by Simon Frost for an EAT-based Evidence collection type. The CMW collection intentionally attains binary compatibility with Simon's design and aims at superseding it by also generalizing on the allowed Evidence formats.
