Technical Summary
The CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE) specification defines
cryptographic message encodings using Concise Binary Object
Representation (CBOR). This specification defines algorithm
encodings and representations enabling RSA algorithms to be used for
COSE messages. Encodings for the use of RSASSA-PSS signatures,
RSAES-OAEP encryption, and RSA keys are specified.
Working Group Summary
This is an AD sponsored draft as the WG felt it was not important to
keep the WG open for this draft, however there was sufficient support
to have this progress as AD sponsored. This will be used by
W3C WebAuth and the FIDO alliance.
Document Quality
There are implementations and planned use. I have no concerns
with document quality.
Personnel
Rich Salz is the shepherd, Kathleen Moriarty is the responsible AD.
IANA Note
Entries are added to three registries by this draft:
COSE Algorithms Registry
COSE Key Type Registry
COSE Key Type Parameters Registry
