Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) S. Turner Request for Comments: 5754 IECA Updates: 3370 January 2010 Category: Standards Track ISSN: 2070-1721 Using SHA2 Algorithms with Cryptographic Message Syntax Abstract This document describes the conventions for using the Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) message digest algorithms (SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512) with the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS). It also describes the conventions for using these algorithms with the CMS and the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA), Rivest Shamir Adleman (RSA), and Elliptic Curve DSA (ECDSA) signature algorithms. Further, it provides SMIMECapabilities attribute values for each algorithm. Status of This Memo This is an Internet Standards Track document. This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It represents the consensus of the IETF community. It has received public review and has been approved for publication by the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG). Further information on Internet Standards is available in Section 2 of RFC 5741.

Introduction This document specifies the algorithm identifiers and specifies parameters for the message digest algorithms SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 for use with the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) [RFC5652]. The message digest algorithms are defined in [SHS] and reference code is provided in [RFC4634]. This document also specifies the algorithm identifiers and parameters for use of SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 with DSA [DSS], RSA (RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5) [RFC3447], and ECDSA [DSS]. This document does not define new identifiers; they are taken from [RFC3874], [RFC4055], and [RFC5758]. Additionally, the parameters follow the conventions specified therein. Therefore, there is no Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) module included in this document.
