A CBOR Tag for Unprotected CWT Claims Sets
draft-ietf-rats-uccs-07
Abstract
When transported over secure channels, CBOR Web Token (CWT, RFC 8392)
Claims Sets may not need the protection afforded by wrapping them
into COSE, as is required for a true CWT. This specification defines
a CBOR tag for such unprotected CWT Claims Sets (UCCS) and discusses
conditions for its proper use.

Internet-Draft Unprotected CWT Claims Sets November 2023
1. Introduction
A CBOR Web Token (CWT) as specified by [RFC8392] is always wrapped in
a CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE, [RFC9052]) envelope.
COSE provides -- amongst other things -- end-to-end data origin
authentication and integrity protection employed by RFC 8392 as well
as optional encryption for CWTs. Under the right circumstances
(Section 3), though, a signature providing proof for authenticity and
integrity can be provided through the transfer protocol and thus
omitted from the information in a CWT without compromising the
intended goal of authenticity and integrity. In other words, if
communicating parties have a pre-existing security association, they
can reuse it to provide authenticity and integrity for their
messages, enabling the basic principle of using resources
parsimoniously. Specifically, if a mutually secured channel is
established between two remote peers, and if that secure channel
provides the required properties (as discussed below), it is possible
to omit the protection provided by COSE, creating a use case for
unprotected CWT Claims Sets. Similarly, if there is one-way
authentication, the party that did not authenticate may be in a
position to send authentication information through this channel that
allows the already authenticated party to authenticate the other
party.
This specification allocates a CBOR tag to mark Unprotected CWT
Claims Sets (UCCS) as such and discusses conditions for its proper
use in the scope of Remote Attestation Procedures (RATS [RFC9334])
for the conveyance of RATS Conceptual Messages.
This specification does not change [RFC8392]: A true CWT does not
make use of the tag allocated here; the UCCS tag is an alternative to
using COSE protection and a CWT tag. Consequently, within the well-
defined scope of a secure channel, it can be acceptable and economic
to use the contents of a CWT without its COSE container and tag it
with a UCCS CBOR tag for further processing within that scope -- or
to use the contents of a UCCS CBOR tag for building a CWT to be
signed by some entity that can vouch for those contents.
1.1. Terminology
The term Claim is used as in [RFC7519].
The terms Claim Key, Claim Value, and CWT Claims Set are used as in
[RFC8392].
The terms Attester, Attesting Environment, Evidence, Relying Party
and Verifier are used as in [RFC9334].
Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 May 2024 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft Unprotected CWT Claims Sets November 2023
UCCS: Unprotected CWT Claims Set(s); CBOR map(s) of Claims as
defined by the CWT Claims Registry that are composed of pairs of
Claim Keys and Claim Values.
Secure Channel: [NIST-SP800-90Ar1] defines a Secure Channel as
follows:
| "A path for transferring data between two entities or
| components that ensures confidentiality, integrity and
| replay protection, as well as mutual authentication between
| the entities or components. The secure channel may be
| provided using approved cryptographic, physical or
| procedural methods, or a combination thereof"
For the purposes of the present document, we focus on a protected
communication channel used for conveyance that can ensure the same
qualities as CWT without the COSE protection. Examples include
conveyance via PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express)
IDE (Integrity and Data Encryption), a TLS tunnel, or other object
security than COSE, such as CMS or X.509 v3 certificates. Note
that this means that, in specific cases, the Secure Channel as
defined here does not itself provide mutual authentication. See
Section 3.
All terms referenced or defined in this section are capitalized in
the remainder of this document.
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.
2. Deployment and Usage of UCCS
Usage scenarios involving the conveyance of Claims, in particular
RATS, require a standardized data definition and encoding format that
can be transferred and transported using different communication
channels. As these are Claims, [RFC8392] is a suitable format.
However, the way these Claims are secured depends on the deployment,
the security capabilities of the device, as well as their software
stack. For example, a Claim may be securely stored and conveyed
using a device's Trusted Execution Environment (TEE, see [RFC9397])
or a Trusted Platform Module (TPM, see [TPM2]). Especially in some
resource constrained environments, the same process that provides the
secure communication transport is also the delegate to compose the
Claim to be conveyed. Whether it is a transfer or transport, a
Secure Channel is presumed to be used for conveying such UCCS. The
Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 May 2024 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Unprotected CWT Claims Sets November 2023
following sections elaborate on Secure Channel characteristics in
general and further describe RATS usage scenarios and corresponding
requirements for UCCS deployment.
3. Characteristics of a Secure Channel
A Secure Channel for the conveyance of UCCS needs to provide the
security properties that would otherwise be provided by COSE for a
CWT. In this regard, UCCS is similar in security considerations to
JWTs [RFC8725] using the algorithm "none". RFC 8725 states:
| [...] if a JWT is cryptographically protected end-to-end by a
| transport layer, such as TLS using cryptographically current
| algorithms, there may be no need to apply another layer of
| cryptographic protections to the JWT. In such cases, the use of
| the "none" algorithm can be perfectly acceptable.
The security considerations discussed, e.g., in Sections 2.1, 3.1,
and 3.2 of [RFC8725] apply in an analogous way to the use of UCCS as
elaborated on in this document.
Secure Channels are often set up in a handshake protocol that
mutually derives a session key, where the handshake protocol
establishes the (identity and thus) authenticity of one or both ends
of the communication. The session key can then be used to provide
confidentiality and integrity of the transfer of information inside
the Secure Channel. A well-known example of a such a Secure Channel
setup protocol is the TLS [RFC8446] handshake; the TLS record
protocol can then be used for secure conveyance.
As UCCS were initially created for use in RATS Secure Channels, the
following section provides a discussion of their use in these
channels. Where other environments are intended to be used to convey
UCCS, similar considerations need to be documented before UCCS can be
used.
4. UCCS and Remote Attestation Procedures (RATS)
This section describes three detailed usage scenarios for UCCS in the
context of RATS.
4.1. Conceptual Messages Conveyance
For the purposes of this section, any RATS role can be the sender or
the receiver of the UCCS.
Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 May 2024 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Unprotected CWT Claims Sets November 2023
Secure Channels can be transient in nature. For the purposes of this
specification, the mechanisms used to establish a Secure Channel are
out of scope.
As a minimum requirement in the scope of RATS Claims, the receiver
MUST authenticate the sender as part of the establishment of the
Secure Channel. Furthermore, the channel MUST provide integrity of
the communication between the communicating RATS roles. If data
confidentiality [RFC4949] is also required, the receiving side MUST
be authenticated as well; this can be achieved if the sender and
receiver mutually authenticate when establishing the Secure Channel.
The extent to which a Secure Channel can provide assurances that UCCS
originate from a trustworthy Attesting Environment depends on the
characteristics of both the cryptographic mechanisms used to
establish the channel and the characteristics of the Attesting
Environment itself.
A Secure Channel established or maintained using weak cryptography
may not provide the assurance required by a Relying Party of the
authenticity and integrity of the UCCS.
Ultimately, it is up to the receiver's policy to determine whether to
accept a UCCS from the sender and to the type of Secure Channel it
must negotiate. While the security considerations of the
cryptographic algorithms used are similar to COSE, the considerations
of the Secure Channel should also adhere to the policy configured at
each of end of the Secure Channel. However, the policy controls and
definitions are out of scope for this document.
Where the security assurance required of an Attesting Environment by
a Relying Party requires it, the Attesting Environment SHOULD be
implemented using techniques designed to provide enhanced protection
from an attacker wishing to tamper with or forge UCCS. A possible
approach might be to implement the Attesting Environment in a
hardened environment such as a TEE [RFC9397] or a TPM [TPM2].
When UCCS emerge from the Secure Channel and into the receiver, the
security properties of the secure channel no longer protect the UCCS,
which now are subject to the same security properties as any other
unprotected data in the Verifier environment. If the receiver
subsequently forwards UCCS, they are treated as though they
originated within the receiver.
As with EATs nested in other EATs (Section 4.2.18.3 (Nested Tokens)
of [I-D.ietf-rats-eat]), the Secure Channel does not endorse fully
formed CWTs transferred through it. Effectively, the COSE envelope
of a CWT (or a nested EAT) shields the CWT Claims Set from the
Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 May 2024 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Unprotected CWT Claims Sets November 2023
endorsement of the secure channel. (Note that EAT might add a nested
UCCS Claim, and this statement does not apply to UCCS nested into
UCCS, only to fully formed CWTs.)
4.2. Delegated Attestation
Another usage scenario is that of a sub-Attester that has no signing
keys (for example, to keep the implementation complexity to a
minimum) and has a Secure Channel, such as a local IPC, to interact
with a lead Attester (see Composite Device, Section 3.3 of
[RFC9334]). The sub-Attester produces a UCCS with the required CWT
Claims Set and sends the UCCS through the Secure Channel to the lead
Attester. The lead Attester then computes a cryptographic hash of
the UCCS and protects that hash using its signing key for Evidence,
for example, using a Detached-Submodule-Digest or Detached EAT Bundle
(Section 5 of [I-D.ietf-rats-eat]).
4.3. Privacy Preservation
A Secure Channel which preserves the privacy of the Attester may
provide security properties equivalent to COSE, but only inside the
life-span of the session established. In general, when a privacy
preserving Secure Channel is employed for conveying a conceptual
message the receiver cannot correlate the message with the senders of
other received UCCS messages.
An Attester must consider whether any UCCS it returns over a privacy
preserving Secure Channel compromises the privacy in unacceptable
ways. As an example, the use of the EAT UEID Claim Section 4.2.1 of
[I-D.ietf-rats-eat] in UCCS over a privacy preserving Secure Channel
allows a Verifier to correlate UCCS from a single Attesting
Environment across many Secure Channel sessions. This may be
acceptable in some use-cases (e.g., if the Attesting Environment is a
physical sensor in a factory) and unacceptable in others (e.g., if
the Attesting Environment is a user device belonging to a child).
5. IANA Considerations
In the CBOR Tags registry [IANA.cbor-tags] as defined in Section 9.2
of [RFC8949], IANA is requested to allocate the tag in Table 1 from
the Specification Required space (1+2 size), with the present
document as the specification reference.

6. Security Considerations
The security considerations of [RFC8949] apply. The security
considerations of [RFC8392] need to be applied analogously, replacing
the function of COSE with that of the Secure Channel.
Section 3 discusses security considerations for Secure Channels, in
which UCCS might be used. This document provides the CBOR tag
definition for UCCS and a discussion on security consideration for
the use of UCCS in RATS. Uses of UCCS outside the scope of RATS are
not covered by this document. The UCCS specification -- and the use
of the UCCS CBOR tag, correspondingly -- is not intended for use in a
scope where a scope-specific security consideration discussion has
not been conducted, vetted and approved for that use.
6.1. General Considerations
Implementations of Secure Channels are often separate from the
application logic that has security requirements on them. Similar
security considerations to those described in [RFC9052] for obtaining
the required levels of assurance include:
* Implementations need to provide sufficient protection for private
or secret key material used to establish or protect the Secure
Channel.
* Using a key for more than one algorithm can leak information about
the key and is not recommended.
* An algorithm used to establish or protect the Secure Channel may
have limits on the number of times that a key can be used without
leaking information about the key.
* Evidence in a UCCS conveyed in a Secure Channel generally cannot
be used to support trust in the credentials that were used to
establish that secure channel, as this would create a circular
dependency.
Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 May 2024 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft Unprotected CWT Claims Sets November 2023
The Verifier needs to ensure that the management of key material used
to establish or protect the Secure Channel is acceptable. This may
include factors such as:
* Ensuring that any permissions associated with key ownership are
respected in the establishment of the Secure Channel.
* Using cryptographic algorithms appropriately.
* Using key material in accordance with any usage restrictions such
as freshness or algorithm restrictions.
* Ensuring that appropriate protections are in place to address
potential traffic analysis attacks.
6.2. AES-CBC_MAC
* A given key should only be used for messages of fixed or known
length.
* Different keys should be used for authentication and encryption
operations.
* A mechanism to ensure that IV cannot be modified is required.
Section 3.2.1 of [RFC9053] contains a detailed explanation of these
considerations.
6.3. AES-GCM
* The key and nonce pair is unique for every encrypted message.
* The maximum number of messages to be encrypted for a given key is
not exceeded.
Section 4.1.1 of [RFC9053] contains a detailed explanation of these
considerations.
6.4. AES-CCM
* The key and nonce pair is unique for every encrypted message.
* The maximum number of messages to be encrypted for a given block
cipher is not exceeded.
* The number of messages both successfully and unsuccessfully
decrypted is used to determine when rekeying is required.
Birkholz, et al. Expires 30 May 2024 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft Unprotected CWT Claims Sets November 2023
Section 4.2.1 of [RFC9053] contains a detailed explanation of these
considerations.
6.5. ChaCha20 and Poly1305
* The nonce is unique for every encrypted message.
* The number of messages both successfully and unsuccessfully
decrypted is used to determine when rekeying is required.
Section 4.3.1 of [RFC9053] contains a detailed explanation of these
considerations.

Appendix B. Example
The example CWT Claims Set from Appendix A.1 of [RFC8392] can be
turned into an UCCS by enclosing it with a tag number TBD601:
601(
{
/ iss / 1: "coap://as.example.com",
/ sub / 2: "erikw",
/ aud / 3: "coap://light.example.com",
/ exp / 4: 1444064944,
/ nbf / 5: 1443944944,
/ iat / 6: 1443944944,
/ cti / 7: h'0b71'
}
)
Appendix C. JSON Support
The above definitions, concepts and security considerations all may
be applied to define a JSON-encoded Claims-Set. Such an unsigned
Claims-Set can be referred to as a "UJCS", an "Unprotected JWT Claims
Set". The CDDL definition in Figure 1 can be used for a "UJCS".
UJCS = Claims-Set
Appendix D. EAT
The following CDDL adds UCCS-format and UJCS-format tokens to EAT
using its predefined extension points (see Section 4.2.18 (submods)
of [I-D.ietf-rats-eat]).
