1. Introduction
This document defines 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. 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 defined enabling a key to be either
configured locally (within the defining data model) or be a reference
to a key in the keystore.
Special consideration has been given for systems that have
cryptographic hardware, such as a Trusted Protection Module (TPM).
These systems are unique in that the cryptographic hardware hides the
secret key values. To support such hardware, symmetric keys may have
the value "hidden-key" and asymmetric keys may have the value
"hidden-private-key". While how such keys are created or destroyed
is outside the scope of this document, the keystore can contain
entries for such keys, enabling them to be reference by other
configuration elements.
This document in compliant with Network Management Datastore
Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. For instance, keys and associated
certificates installed during manufacturing (e.g., for a IDevID
[Std-802.1AR-2009] certificate), are expected to appear in
<operational> (see Section 4).

It is not required that a system has an operating system level
keystore utility to implement this module.
2. Requirements 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.
3. The Keystore Model
3.1. Tree Diagram
This section provides a tree diagrams [RFC8340] for the "ietf-
keystore" module that presents both the protocol-accessible
"keystore" as well the all the groupings intended for external usage.

3.2.2. The "generate-symmetric-key" RPC
The following example illustrates how the "generate-symmetric-key"
RPC defined in "ietf-crypto-types" module
[I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types] has been augmented to encrypt the
generated symmetric key.
This example references the key defined in the keystore example in
Section 3.2.1.

3.2.4. Notable Keystore Groupings
The following non-normative module is used by subsequent examples to
illustrate groupings defined in the ietf-crypto-types module.
module ex-keystore-usage {
yang-version 1.1;
namespace "http://example.com/ns/example-keystore-usage";
prefix "eku";

keystore. The intent is to reference just the asymmetric

}
list key-with-certs {
key name;
leaf name {
type string;
description
"An arbitrary name for this key.";
}
uses ks:local-or-keystore-asymmetric-key-with-certs-grouping;
description
"An asymmetric key and its associated certs, that may be

}

description
"An end-entity certificate, and its associated private key,
that may be configured locally or be a reference to a
specific certificate (and its associated private key) in
the keystore.";
}
}
}
The following example illustrates what two configured keys, one local
and the other remote, might look like. This example consistent with
other examples above (i.e., the referenced key is in an example
above).

4. Support for Built-in Keys
In some implementations, a device's hardware may define some built-in
keys set during the manufacturing process, and/or the operating
system the device runs may dynamically generate some "hidden" keys
upon first boot. As an example, a built-in key may exist in
conjunction with a secure device identity certificate (e.g., an
IDevID certificate).
Built-in keys are expected to be set by a vendor-specific process.
Any ability for operators to modify the built-in keys is outside the
scope of this docuemnt.
As built-in keys are provided by the system (not configuration), they
are present in <operational>. The following example illustrates
built-in keys in <operational>.
(FIXME: add illustration with origin="system" here)
In order for the built-in keys to be referenced by configuration,
they must first be copied into <intended> as the example in
Section 3.2 illustrates for the built-in keys above. Note that this
strategy is chosen, rather then setting "require-instance false" for
the various leafrefs, as built-in keys are relatively few in number
and hence not worth relaxing the validation for.
5. Support for RMAs

6. Security Considerations
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 September 9, 2020 [Page 32]
Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore March 2020
The NETCONF 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.
There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are
writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the
default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable
in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config)
to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative
effect on network operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes
and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
/: The entire data tree defined by this module is sensitive to
write operations. For instance, the addition or removal of
keys, certificates, etc., can dramatically alter the
implemented security policy. For this reason, the NACM
extension "default-deny-write" has been set for the entire data
tree.
/keystore/asymmetric-keys/asymmetric-key/private-key: When
writing this node, implementations MUST ensure that the
strength of the key being configured is not greater than the
strength of the underlying secure transport connection over
which it is communicated. Implementations SHOULD fail the
write-request if ever the strength of the private key is
greater then the strength of the underlying transport, and
alert the client that the strength of the key may have been
compromised. Additionally, when deleting this node,
implementations SHOULD automatically (without explicit request)
zeroize these keys in the most secure manner available, so as
to prevent the remnants of their persisted storage locations
from being analyzed in any meaningful way.
Some of the readable data nodes 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. These are the subtrees and data
nodes and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
/keystore/asymmetric-keys/asymmetric-key/private-key: This node
is additionally sensitive to read operations such that, in
normal use cases, it should never be returned to a client. The
best reason for returning this node is to support backup/
restore type workflows. For this reason, the NACM extension
"default-deny-all" has been set for this data node.

algorithm, and reformatted the YANG module.
A.9. 08 to 09
o Added a 'description' statement to the 'must' in the /keystore/
asymmetric-key node explaining that the descendent values may
exist in <operational> only, and that implementation MUST assert
that the values are either configured or that they exist in
<operational>.
Watsen Expires September 9, 2020 [Page 37]
Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Keystore March 2020
o Copied above 'must' statement (and description) into the local-or-
keystore-asymmetric-key-grouping, local-or-keystore-asymmetric-

with-key-grouping statements.
A.10. 09 to 10
o Updated draft title to match new truststore draft title
o Moved everything under a top-level 'grouping' to enable use in
other contexts.
o Renamed feature from 'local-keys-supported' to 'local-definitions-
supported' (same name used in truststore)
o 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)
o Example updated to reflect 'mandatory true' change in crypto-types
draft

other keys in the keystore. Refactored keystore model to use
these groupings.
o Added new 'symmetric-keys' lists, as a sibling to the existing
'asymmetric-keys' list.
