1. Introduction
This document defines a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] module having the
following characteristics:
Provide a central truststore for storing raw public keys and/or
certificates.
Provide support for storing named bags of raw public keys and/or
named bags of certificates.
Provide types that can be used to reference raw public keys or
certificates stored in the central truststore.
Provide groupings that enable raw public keys and certificates to
be configured locally or as references truststore instances.
Enable the truststore to be instantiated in other data models, in
addition to or in lieu of the central trusttore instance.
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,
enable the configuration of the clients and servers of both the
NETCONF [RFC6241] and RESTCONF [RFC8040] protocols.
The modules have been defined in a modular fashion to enable their
use by other efforts, some of which are known to be in progress at
the time of this writing, with many more expected to be defined in
time.

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. Adherence to the NMDA
This document in compliant with the Network Management Datastore
Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. For instance, trust anchors installed
during manufacturing (e.g., for trusted well-known services), are
expected to appear in <operational> (see Section 3).
2. The "ietf-truststore" Module
This section defines a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] module that defines a
"truststore" and groupings supporting downstream modules to reference
the truststore or have locally-defined definitions.
Watsen Expires 14 August 2021 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
This section defines a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] module called "ietf-
truststore". A high-level overview of the module is provided in
Section 2.1. Examples illustatrating the module's use are provided
in Examples (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-truststore" 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-truststore" module:
Features:
+-- truststore-supported
+-- local-definitions-supported
+-- certificates
+-- public-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-truststore" module:
Typedefs:
leafref
+-- certificate-bag-ref
+-- certificate-ref
+-- public-key-bag-ref
+-- public-key-ref
| The diagram above uses syntax that is similar to but not
| defined in [RFC8340].
Comments:
* All of the typedefs defined in the "ietf-truststore" module extend
the base "leafref" type defined in [RFC7950].
* The leafrefs refer to certificates, public keys, and bags in the
truststore, when the truststore module is implemented.
Watsen Expires 14 August 2021 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
* These typedefs are provided as an aid to downstream modules that
import the "ietf-truststore" module.
2.1.3. Groupings
The "ietf-truststore" module defines the following "grouping"
statements:
* local-or-truststore-certs-grouping
* local-or-truststore-public-keys-grouping
* truststore-grouping
Each of these groupings are presented in the following subsections.
2.1.3.1. The "local-or-truststore-certs-grouping" Grouping
The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "local-or-
truststore-certs-grouping" grouping:
grouping local-or-truststore-certs-grouping
+-- (local-or-truststore)
+--:(local) {local-definitions-supported}?
| +-- local-definition
| +-- certificate* [name]
| +-- name? string
| +---u ct:trust-anchor-cert-grouping
+--:(truststore) {truststore-supported,certificates}?
+-- truststore-reference? ts:certificate-bag-ref
Comments:
* The "local-or-truststore-certs-grouping" grouping is provided
soley as convenience to downstream modules that wish to offer an
option whether a bag of certificates can be defined locally or as
a reference to a bag in the truststore.
* A "choice" statement is used to expose the various options. 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 bag in an alternate location.
* For the "local-definition" option, the "certificate" node uses the
"trust-anchor-cert-grouping" grouping discussed in Section 2.1.4.7
of [I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types].
* For the "truststore" option, the "truststore-reference" is an
instance of the "certificate-bag-ref" discussed in Section 2.1.2.

Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
2.1.3.2. The "local-or-truststore-public-keys-grouping" Grouping
The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "local-or-
truststore-public-keys-grouping" grouping:
grouping local-or-truststore-public-keys-grouping
+-- (local-or-truststore)
+--:(local) {local-definitions-supported}?
| +-- local-definition
| +-- public-key* [name]
| +-- name? string
| +---u ct:public-key-grouping
+--:(truststore) {truststore-supported,public-keys}?
+-- truststore-reference? ts:public-key-bag-ref
Comments:
* The "local-or-truststore-public-keys-grouping" grouping is
provided soley as convenience to downstream modules that wish to
offer an option whether a bag of public keys can be defined
locally or as a reference to a bag in the truststore.
* A "choice" statement is used to expose the various options. 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 bag in an alternate location.
* For the "local-definition" option, the "public-key" node uses the
"public-key-grouping" grouping discussed in Section 2.1.4.4 of
[I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types].
* For the "truststore" option, the "truststore-reference" is an
instance of the "certificate-bag-ref" discussed in Section 2.1.2.
2.1.3.3. The "truststore-grouping" Grouping
The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "truststore-
grouping" grouping:
Watsen Expires 14 August 2021 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
grouping truststore-grouping
+-- certificate-bags! {certificates}?
| +-- certificate-bag* [name]
| +-- name? string
| +-- description? string
| +-- certificate* [name]
| +-- name? string
| +---u ct:trust-anchor-cert-grouping
+-- public-key-bags! {public-keys}?
+-- public-key-bag* [name]
+-- name? string
+-- description? string
+-- public-key* [name]
+-- name? string
+---u ct:public-key-grouping
Comments:
* The "truststore-grouping" grouping defines a truststore instance
as being composed of certificates and/or public keys, both of
which are enabled by "feature" statements. The stucture
supporting certificates and public keys is essentially the same,
having an outer list of "bags" containing in inner list of objects
(certificates or public keys). The bags enable trust anchors
serving a common purpose to be grouped and referenced together.
* For certificates, each certificate is defined by the "trust-
anchor-cert-grouping" grouping Section 2.1.4.7 of
[I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types]. Thus the "cert-data" node is a
CMS structure that can be composed of a chain of one or more
certificates. Additionally, the "certificate-expiration"
notification enables the server to alert clients when certificates
are nearing or have already expired.
* For public keys, each public key is defined by the "public-key-
grouping" grouping Section 2.1.4.4 of
[I-D.ietf-netconf-crypto-types]. Thus the "public-key" node can
be one of any number of structures specified by the "public-key-
format" identity node.
2.1.4. Protocol-accessible Nodes
The following tree diagram [RFC8340] lists all the protocol-
accessible nodes defined in the "ietf-truststore" module, without
expanding the "grouping" statements:

Comments:
* Protocol-accessible nodes are those nodes that are accessible when
the module is "implemented", as described in Section 5.6.5 of
[RFC7950].
* The protcol-accessible nodes for the "ietf-truststore" module are
an instance of the "truststore-grouping" grouping discussed in
Section 2.1.3.3.
* The reason for why the "truststore-grouping" exists separate from
the protocol-accessible nodes definition is to enable instances of
the truststore to be instantiated in other locations, as may be
needed or desired by some modules.
2.2. Example Usage
The examples in this section are encoded using XML, such as might be
the case when using the NETCONF protocol. Other encodings MAY be
used, such as JSON when using the RESTCONF protocol.
2.2.1. A Truststore Instance
This section presents an example illustrating trust anchors in
<intended>, as per Section 2.1.4. Please see Section 3 for an
example illustrating built-in values in <operational>.
The example contained in this secton defines eight bags of trust
anchors. There are four certificate-based bags and four public key
based bags. The following diagram provides an overview of the
contents in the example:

2.2.3. The "Local or Truststore" Groupings
This section illustrates the various "local-or-truststore" groupings
defined in the "ietf-truststore" module, specifically the "local-or-
truststore-certs-grouping" (Section 2.1.3.1) and "local-or-
truststore-public-keys-grouping" (Section 2.1.3.2) groupings.
These examples assume the existence of an example module called "ex-
truststore-usage" having the namespace "http://example.com/ns/
example-truststore-usage".
The ex-truststore-usage module is first presented using tree diagrams
[RFC8340], followed by an instance example illustrating all the
"local-or-truststore" groupings in use, followed by the YANG module
itself.
The following tree diagram illustrates "ex-truststore-usage" without
expanding the "grouping" statements:
Watsen Expires 14 August 2021 [Page 17]
Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
module: ex-truststore-usage
+--rw truststore-usage
+--rw cert* [name]
| +--rw name string
| +---u ts:local-or-truststore-certs-grouping
+--rw public-key* [name]
+--rw name string
+---u ts:local-or-truststore-public-keys-grouping
The following tree diagram illustrates the "ex-truststore-usage"
module, with all "grouping" statements expanded, enabling the
truststore's full structure to be seen:
module: ex-truststore-usage
+--rw truststore-usage
+--rw cert* [name]
| +--rw name string
| +--rw (local-or-truststore)
| +--:(local) {local-definitions-supported}?
| | +--rw local-definition
| | +--rw certificate* [name]
| | +--rw name string
| | +--rw cert-data
| | | trust-anchor-cert-cms
| | +---n certificate-expiration
| | {certificate-expiration-notification}?
| | +-- expiration-date yang:date-and-time
| +--:(truststore) {truststore-supported,certificates}?
| +--rw truststore-reference? ts:certificate-bag-ref
+--rw public-key* [name]
+--rw name string
+--rw (local-or-truststore)
+--:(local) {local-definitions-supported}?
| +--rw local-definition
| +--rw public-key* [name]
| +--rw name string
| +--rw public-key-format identityref
| +--rw public-key binary
+--:(truststore) {truststore-supported,public-keys}?
+--rw truststore-reference? ts:public-key-bag-ref
The following example provides two equivalent instances of each
grouping, the first being a reference to a truststore and the second
being locally-defined. The instance having a reference to a
truststore is consistent with the truststore defined in
Section 2.2.1. The two instances are equivalent, as the locally-
defined instance example contains the same values defined by the
truststore instance referenced by its sibling example.

3. Support for Built-in Trust Anchors
In some implementations, a server may define some built-in trust
anchors. For instance, there may be built-in trust anchors enabling
the server to securely connect to well-known services (e.g., an SZTP
[RFC8572] bootstrap server) or public CA certificates to connect to
arbitrary services using public PKI.
Built-in trust anchors are expected to be set by a vendor-specific
process. Any ability for operators to modify built-in trust anchors
is outside the scope of this document.
As built-in trust anchors are provided by the server, they are
present in <operational>. The example below illustrates what the
truststore in <operational> might look like for a server in its
factory default state.

In order for the built-in bags of trust anchors and/or their trust
anchors to be referenced by configuration, they MUST first be copied
into <running>.
Watsen Expires 14 August 2021 [Page 30]
Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
The built-in bags and/or their trust anchors MUST be copied into
<running> using the same "key" values if it is desired for the server
to maintain/update them (e.g., a software update may update a bag of
trusted public CA certificates used for TLS-client connections).
Built-in bags and/or their trust anchors MAY be copied into other
parts of the configuration but, by doing so, they lose their
association to the built-in entries and any assurances afforded by
knowing they are/were built-in.
The built-in bags and/or their trust anchors are immutable by
configuration operations. Servers MUST ignore attempts to modify any
aspect of built-in bags and/or their trust anchors from <running>.
The following example illustrates how a single built-in public CA
certificate from the previous example has been propagated to
<running>:
<truststore
xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-truststore"
xmlns:ct="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-crypto-types">

<certificate-bag>
<name>Built-In Public Trust Anchor Certificates</name>
<description>
Certificates built into the device for authenticating
certificates issued by public certificate authorities,
such as the end-entity certificate for web servers.
Only the subset of the certificates that are referenced
by other configuration nodes need to be copied. For
instance, only "Public Root CA Cert 3" is present here.
No new certificates can be added, nor existing certificate
values changed. Missing certificates have no effect on
"operational" when the configuration is applied.

4. Security Considerations
4.1. Security of Data at Rest
The YANG module defined in this document defines a mechanism called a
"truststore" that, by its name, suggests that its contents are
protected from unauthorized modification.
Security controls for the API (i.e., data in motion) are discussed in
Section 4.3, but controls for the data at rest cannot be specified by
the YANG module.
In order to satisfy the expectations of a "truststore", it is
RECOMMENDED that implementations ensure that the truststore contents
are protected from unauthorized modifications when at rest.
4.2. Unconstrained Public Key Usage
This module enables the configuration of public keys without
constraints on their usage, e.g., what operations the key is allowed
to be used for (encryption, verification, both).
This module also enables the configuration of certificates, where
each certificate may constrain the usage of the public key according
to local policy.
4.3. The "ietf-truststore" YANG Module
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.
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.
None of the readable data nodes defined in this YANG module are
considered sensitive or vulnerable in network environments. The NACM
"default-deny-all" extension has not been set for any data nodes
defined in this module.
Watsen Expires 14 August 2021 [Page 32]
Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
All of the writable data nodes defined by this module, both in the
"grouping" statements as well as the protocol-accessible "truststore"
instance, may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network
environments. For instance, any modification to a trust anchor or
reference to a trust anchor 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.
5. IANA Considerations

Appendix A. Change Log
This section is to be removed before publishing as an RFC.
A.1. 00 to 01
* Added features "x509-certificates" and "ssh-host-keys".
* Added nacm:default-deny-write to "trust-anchors" container.
A.2. 01 to 02
* Switched "list pinned-certificate" to use the "trust-anchor-cert-
grouping" from crypto-types. Effectively the same definition as
before.
A.3. 02 to 03
* Updated copyright date, boilerplate template, affiliation, folding
algorithm, and reformatted the YANG module.
A.4. 03 to 04
* Added groupings 'local-or-truststore-certs-grouping' and 'local-
or-truststore-host-keys-grouping', matching similar definitions in
the keystore draft. Note new (and incomplete) "truststore" usage!
* Related to above, also added features 'truststore-supported' and
'local-trust-anchors-supported'.
A.5. 04 to 05
* Renamed "trust-anchors" to "truststore"
* Removed "pinned." prefix everywhere, to match truststore rename
* Moved everything under a top-level 'grouping' to enable use in
other contexts.

Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
* Renamed feature from 'local-trust-anchors-supported' to 'local-
definitions-supported' (same name used in keystore)
* Removed the "require-instance false" statement from the "*-ref"
typedefs.
* Added missing "ssh-host-keys" and "x509-certificates" if-feature
statements
A.6. 05 to 06
* Editorial changes only.
A.7. 06 to 07
* Added Henk Birkholz as a co-author (thanks Henk!)
* Added PSKs and raw public keys to truststore.
A.8. 07 to 08
* Added new "Support for Built-in Trust Anchors" section.
* Removed spurious "uses ct:trust-anchor-certs-grouping" line.
* Removed PSK from model.
A.9. 08 to 09
* Removed remaining PSK references from text.
* Wrapped each top-level list with a container.
* Introduced "bag" term.
* Merged "SSH Public Keys" and "Raw Public Keys" in a single "Public
Keys" bag. Consuming downstream modules (i.e., "ietf-[ssh/tls]-
[client/server]) refine the "public-key-format" to be either SSH
or TLS specific as needed.
A.10. 09 to 10
* Removed "algorithm" node from examples.
* Removed the no longer used statements supporting the old "ssh-
public-key" and "raw-public-key" nodes.
* Added a "Note to Reviewers" note to first page.

Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore February 2021
A.11. 10 to 11
* Corrected module prefix registered in the IANA Considerations
section.
* Modified 'local-or-truststore-certs-grouping' to use a list (not a
leaf-list).
* Added new example section "The Local or Truststore Groupings".
* Clarified expected behavior for "built-in" certificates in
<operational>
* Expanded "Data Model Overview section(s) [remove "wall" of tree
diagrams].
* Updated the Security Considerations section.
A.12. 11 to 12
* Fixed a copy/paste issue in the "Data at Rest" Security
Considerations section.
A.13. 12 to 13
* Fixed issues found by the SecDir review of the "keystore" draft.
A.14. 13 to 14
* Added an "Unconstrained Public Key Usage" Security Consideration
to address concern raised by SecDir.
* Addressed comments raised by YANG Doctor.
Acknowledgements
The authors especially thank Henk Birkholz for contributing YANG to
the ietf-truststore module supporting raw public keys and PSKs (pre-
shared or pairwise-symmetric keys). While these contributions were
eventually replaced by reusing the existing support for asymmetric
and symmetric trust anchors, respectively, it was only thru Henk's
initiative that the WG was able to come to that result.
The authors additionally thank the following for helping give shape
to this work (ordered by first name): Balazs Kovacs, Eric Voit,
Juergen Schoenwaelder, Liang Xia, Martin Bjorklund, Nick Hancock, and
Yoav Nir.
