Introduction DomainKeys Identified Mail [DKIM] introduced a mechanism for message signing and authentication. It uses digital signing to associate a domain name with a message in a reliable manner. The verified domain name can then be evaluated (e.g., checking advertised sender policy, comparison to a known-good list, submission to a reputation service, etc.). Deployers of message authentication technologies are increasingly seeking visibility into DKIM verification failures and conformance failures involving the published signing practices (e.g., Author Domain Signing Practices [ADSP]) of an ADministrative Management Domain (ADMD; see [EMAIL-ARCH]). This document extends [DKIM] and [ADSP] to add an optional reporting address and some reporting parameters. Reports are generated using the format defined in [ARF-AUTHFAIL]. 2. Definitions 2.1. Key Words The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [KEYWORDS]. 2.2. Notation Certain properties of email messages described in this document are referenced using notation found in [EMAIL-ARCH] (e.g., "RFC5322.From"). 2.3. Imported Definitions Numerous DKIM-specific terms used here are defined in [DKIM]. The definitions of the [ABNF] tokens "domain-name" and "dkim-quoted-printable" can also be found there. 2.4. Other Definitions report generator: A report generator is an entity that generates and sends reports. For the scope of this document, the term refers to Verifiers, as defined in Section 2.2 of [DKIM], with the added capability to generate authentication failure reports according to this specification. Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 3] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 3. Optional Reporting for DKIM A domain name owner employing [DKIM] for email signing and authentication might want to know when signatures that ought to be verifiable are not successfully verifying. Currently, there is no such mechanism defined. This section adds optional "tags" (as defined in [DKIM]) to the DKIM-Signature header field and the DKIM key record in the DNS, using the formats defined in that specification. 3.1. Extension DKIM Signature Tag The following tag is added to DKIM-Signature header fields when a Signer wishes to request that reports of failed verifications be generated by a Verifier: r= Reporting Requested (plain-text; OPTIONAL; no default). If present, this tag indicates that the Signer requests that Verifiers generate a report when verification of the DKIM signature fails. At present, the only legal value is the single character "y". A complete description and illustration of how this is applied can be found in Section 3.3. ABNF: sig-r-tag = %x72 *WSP "=" *WSP %x79 ; "r=y" (lower-case only) 3.2. DKIM Reporting TXT Record When a Signer wishes to advertise that it wants to receive failed verification reports, it places in the DNS a TXT Resource Record (RR). The RR contains a sequence of tag-value objects in a format similar to DKIM key records (see Section 3.6.1 of [DKIM]), but it is entirely independent of those key records and is found at a different name. The tag-value objects in this case comprise the parameters to be used when generating the reports. A report generator will request the content of this record when it sees an "r=" tag in a DKIM-Signature header field. Section 3.6.2.2 of [DKIM] provides guidance with respect to the handling of a TXT RR that comprises multiple distinct strings ("character-strings" in the parlance of [DNS]). The same process MUST be applied here. Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 4] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 Implementations MUST support all tags defined in this document, and any other tag found in the content of the record that is not recognized by an implementation MUST be ignored. See Section 7.3 for details about finding or registering extension tags. The initial list of tags supported for the reporting TXT record is as follows: ra= Reporting Address (plain-text; OPTIONAL). A dkim-quoted-printable string (see Section 2.11 of [DKIM]) containing the local-part of an email address to which a report SHOULD be sent when mail fails DKIM verification for one of the reasons enumerated below. The value MUST be interpreted as a local-part only. To construct the actual address to which the report is sent, the Verifier simply appends to this value an "@" followed by the domain name found in the "d=" tag of the DKIM-Signature header field. Therefore, a Signer making use of this specification MUST ensure that an email address thus constructed can receive reports generated as described in Section 6. ABNF: rep-ra-tag = %x72.61 *WSP "=" *WSP dkim-quoted-printable ; "ra=..." (lower-case only for the tag name) rp= Requested Report Percentage (plain-text; OPTIONAL; default is "100"). The value is an integer from 0 to 100 inclusive that indicates what percentage of incidents of signature authentication failures, selected at random, are to cause reports to be generated. The report generator SHOULD NOT issue reports for more than the requested percentage of incidents. Report generators MAY make use of the "Incidents:" field in [ARF] to indicate that there are more reportable incidents than there are reports. ABNF: rep-rp-tag = %x72.70 *WSP "=" *WSP 1*3DIGIT ; "rp=..." (lower-case only) Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 5] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 rr= Requested Reports (plain-text; OPTIONAL; default is "all"). The value MUST be a colon-separated list of tokens representing those conditions under which a report is desired. See Section 5.1 for a list of valid tokens. ABNF: rep-rr-type = ( "all" / "d" / "o" / "p" / "s" / "u" / "v" / "x" ) rep-rr-tag = %x72.72 *WSP "=" *WSP rep-rr-type *WSP *( ":" *WSP rep-rr-type ) ; "rr=..." (lower-case only for the tag name) rs= Requested SMTP Error String (plain-text; OPTIONAL; no default). The value is a dkim-quoted-printable string that the publishing ADMD requests be included in [SMTP] error strings if messages are rejected during the delivery SMTP session. ABNF: rep-rs-tag = %x72.73 *WSP "=" dkim-quoted-printable ; "rs=..." (lower-case only for the tag name) In the absence of an "ra=" tag, the "rp=" and "rr=" tags MUST be ignored, and the report generator MUST NOT issue a report. 3.3. DKIM Reporting Algorithm Report generators MUST apply the following algorithm, or one semantically equivalent to it, for each DKIM-Signature header field whose verification fails for some reason. Note that this processing is done as a reporting extension only; the outcome of the specified DKIM evaluation MUST be otherwise unaffected. 1. If the DKIM-Signature field did not contain a valid "r=" tag, terminate. 2. Issue a [DNS] TXT query to the name that results from appending the value of the "d=" tag in the DKIM-Signature field to the string "_report._domainkey.". For example, if the DKIM-Signature header field contains "d=example.com", issue a DNS TXT query to "_report._domainkey.example.com". 3. If the DNS query returns anything other than RCODE 0 (NOERROR), or if multiple TXT records are returned, terminate. 4. If the resultant TXT is in several string fragments, concatenate them as described in Section 3.6.2.2 of [DKIM]. Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 6] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 5. If the TXT content is syntactically invalid (see Section 3.2), terminate. 6. If the reason for the signature evaluation failure does not match one of the report requests found in the "rr=" tag (or its default value), terminate. 7. If a report percentage ("rp=") tag was present, select a random number between 0 and 99, inclusive; if the selected number is not lower than the tag's value, terminate. 8. If no "ra=" tag was present, skip this step and the next one. Otherwise, determine the reporting address by extracting the value of the "ra=" tag and appending to it an "@" followed by the domain name found in the "d=" tag of the DKIM-Signature header field. 9. Construct and send a report in compliance with Section 6 of this document that includes as its intended recipient the address constructed in the previous step. 10. If the [SMTP] session during which the DKIM signature was evaluated is still active and the SMTP server has not already given its response to the DATA command that relayed the message, and an "rs=" tag was present in the TXT record, the SMTP server SHOULD include the decoded string found in the "rs=" tag in its SMTP reply to the DATA command. In order to thwart attacks that seek to convert report generators into unwitting denial-of-service attack participants, a report generator SHOULD NOT issue more than one report to any given domain as a result of a single message. Further, a report generator SHOULD establish an upper bound on the number of reports a single message can generate overall. For example, a message with three invalid signatures, two from example.com and one from example.net, would generate at most one report to each of those domains. This algorithm has the following advantages over previous pre-standardization implementations, such as early versions of [OPENDKIM]: a. If the DKIM signature fails to verify, no additional DNS check is made to see if reporting is requested; the request is active in that it is included in the DKIM-Signature header field. (Previous implementations included the reporting address in the DKIM key record, which is not queried for certain failure cases. This meant, for full reporting, that the key record had to be retrieved even when it was not otherwise necessary.) Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 7] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 b. The request is confirmed by the presence of a corresponding TXT record in the DNS, since the Signer thus provides the parameters required to construct and send the report. This means a malicious Signer cannot falsely assert that someone else wants failure reports and cause unwanted mail to be generated. It can cause additional DNS traffic against the domain listed in the "d=" signature tag, but negative caching of the requested DNS record will help to mitigate this issue. c. It is not possible for a Signer to direct reports to an email address outside of its own domain, preventing distributed email- based denial-of-service attacks. See Section 8.4 for some considerations regarding limitations of this mechanism. 4. Optional Reporting Address for DKIM ADSP A domain name owner employing Author Domain Signing Practices [ADSP] may also want to know when messages are received without valid author domain signatures. Currently, there is no such mechanism defined. This section adds the following optional "tags" (as defined in [ADSP]) to the DKIM ADSP records, using the form defined in that specification: ra= Reporting Address (plain-text; OPTIONAL; no default). The value MUST be a dkim-quoted-printable string containing the local-part of an email address to which a report SHOULD be sent when mail claiming to be from this domain failed the verification algorithm described in [ADSP], in particular because a message arrived without a signature that validates, which contradicts what the ADSP record claims. The value MUST be interpreted as a local-part only. To construct the actual address to which the report is sent, the Verifier simply appends to this value an "@" followed by the domain whose policy was queried in order to evaluate the sender's ADSP, i.e., the RFC5322.From domain of the message under evaluation. Therefore, a Signer making use of this extension tag MUST ensure that an email address thus constructed can receive reports generated as described in Section 6. ABNF: adsp-ra-tag = %x72.61 *WSP "=" dkim-quoted-printable ; "ra=..." (lower-case only for the tag name) Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 8] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 rp= Requested Report Percentage (plain-text; OPTIONAL; default is "100"). The value is a single integer from 0 to 100 inclusive that indicates what percentage of incidents of ADSP evaluation failures, selected at random, are to cause reports to be generated. The report generator SHOULD NOT issue reports for more than the requested percentage of incidents. An exception to this might be some out-of-band arrangement between two parties to override it with some mutually agreed value. Report generators MAY make use of the "Incidents:" field in [ARF] to indicate that there are more reportable incidents than there are reports. ABNF: adsp-rp-tag = %x72.70 *WSP "=" *WSP 1*3DIGIT ; "rp=..." (lower-case only) rr= Requested Reports (plain-text; OPTIONAL; default is "all"). The value MUST be a colon-separated list of tokens representing those conditions under which a report is desired. See Section 5.2 for a list of valid tokens. ABNF: adsp-rr-type = ( "all" / "o" / "p" / "s" / "u" ) adsp-rr-tag = %x72.72 *WSP "=" *WSP adsp-rr-type *WSP *( ":" *WSP adsp-rr-type ) ; "rr=..." (lower-case only for the tag name) rs= Requested SMTP Error String (plain-text; OPTIONAL; no default). The value is a string the signing domain requests be included in [SMTP] error strings when messages are rejected during a single SMTP session. ABNF: adsp-rs-tag = %x72.73 *WSP "=" dkim-quoted-printable ; "rs=..." (lower-case only for the tag name) In the absence of an "ra=" tag, the "rp=" and "rr=" tags MUST be ignored, and the report generator MUST NOT issue a report. 5. Requested Reports The "rr" tags defined above allow a Signer to specify the types of errors about which it is interested in receiving reports. This section defines the error types and corresponding token values. Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 9] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 Verifiers MUST NOT generate reports for incidents that do not match a requested report and MUST ignore requests for reports not included in this list. 5.1. Requested Reports for DKIM Failures The following report requests are defined for DKIM keys: all All reports are requested. d Reports are requested for signature evaluation errors that resulted from DNS issues (e.g., key retrieval problems). o Reports are requested for any reason related to DKIM signature evaluation not covered by other report requests listed here. p Reports are requested for signatures that are rejected for local policy reasons at the Verifier that are related to DKIM signature evaluation. s Reports are requested for signature or key syntax errors. u Reports are requested for signatures that include unknown tags in the signature field. v Reports are requested for signature verification failures or body hash mismatches. x Reports are requested for signatures rejected by the Verifier because the expiration time has passed. 5.2. Requested Reports for DKIM ADSP Failures The following report requests are defined for ADSP records: all All reports are requested. o Reports are requested for any [ADSP]-related failure reason not covered by other report requests listed here. p Reports are requested for messages that are rejected for local policy reasons at the Verifier that are related to [ADSP]. s Reports are requested for messages that have a valid [DKIM] signature but do not match the published [ADSP] policy. u Reports are requested for messages that have no valid [DKIM] signature and do not match the published [ADSP] policy. Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 10] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 6. Report Generation This section describes the process for generating and sending reports in accordance with the request of the Signer and/or sender as described above. 6.1. Report Format All reports generated as a result of requests contained in these extension parameters MUST be generated in compliance with [ARF] and its extension specific to this work, [ARF-AUTHFAIL]. Moreover, because abuse reports from unverified sources might be handled with some skepticism, report generators are strongly advised to use [DKIM] to sign reports they generate. 6.2. Other Guidance Additional guidance about the generation of these reports can be found in [ARF-AS], especially in Section 6. 7. IANA Considerations As required by [IANA-CONS], this section contains registry information for the new [DKIM] signature tags and for the new [ADSP] tags. It also creates a DKIM reporting tag registry. 7.1. DKIM Signature Tag Registration IANA has added the following item to the DKIM Signature Tag Specifications registry: +------+-----------------+--------+ | TYPE | REFERENCE | STATUS | +------+-----------------+--------+ | r | (this document) | active | +------+-----------------+--------+ Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 11] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 7.2. DKIM ADSP Tag Registration IANA has added the following items to the DKIM ADSP Specification Tags registry: +------+-----------------+ | TYPE | REFERENCE | +------+-----------------+ | ra | (this document) | | rp | (this document) | | rr | (this document) | | rs | (this document) | +------+-----------------+ 7.3. DKIM Reporting Tag Registry IANA has created a sub-registry of the DKIM Parameters registry called "DKIM Reporting Tag Registry". Additions to this registry follow the "Specification Required" rules, with the following columns required for all registrations: Tag: The name of the tag being used in reporting records Reference: The document that specifies the tag being defined Status: The status of the tag's current use -- either "active" indicating active use, or "historic" indicating discontinued or deprecated use The initial registry entries are as follows: +-----+-----------------+--------+ | TAG | REFERENCE | STATUS | +-----+-----------------+--------+ | ra | (this document) | active | | rp | (this document) | active | | rr | (this document) | active | | rs | (this document) | active | +-----+-----------------+--------+ Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 12] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 8. Security Considerations Security issues with respect to these reports are similar to those found in [DSN]. 8.1. Inherited Considerations Implementers are advised to consider the Security Considerations sections of [DKIM], [ADSP], [ARF-AS], and [ARF-AUTHFAIL]. Many security issues related to this document are already covered in those documents. 8.2. Report Volume It is impossible to predict the volume of reports this facility will generate when enabled by a report receiver. An implementer ought to anticipate substantial volume, since the amount of abuse occurring at receivers cannot be known ahead of time, and may vary rapidly and unpredictably. 8.3. Deliberate Misuse Some threats caused by deliberate misuse of this error-reporting mechanism are discussed in Section 3.3, but they warrant further discussion here. The presence of the DNS record that indicates willingness to accept reports opens the recipient to abuse. In particular, it is possible for an attacker to attempt to cause a flood of reports toward the domain identified in a signature's "d=" tag in one of these ways: 1. Alter existing DKIM-Signature header fields by adding an "r=y" tag (and possibly altering the "d=" tag to point at the target domain); 2. Add a new but bogus signature bearing an "r=y" tag and a "d=" tag pointing at the target domain; 3. Generate a completely new message bearing an "r=y" tag and a "d=" tag pointing at the target domain. Consider, for example, the situation where an attacker sends out a multi-million-message spam run and includes in the messages a fake DKIM signature containing "d=example.com; r=y". It won't matter that those signatures couldn't possibly be real: each will fail verification, and any implementations that support this specification will report those failures, in the millions and in short order, to example.com. Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 13] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 Implementers are therefore strongly advised not to advertise the DNS record specified in this document except when failure reports are desired. Upon doing so, unexpected traffic volumes and attacks should be anticipated. Negative caching offers some protection against this pattern of abuse, although it will work only as long as the negative time-to- live on the relevant SOA record in the DNS. Positive caching of this DNS reply also means that turning off the flow of reports by removing the record is not likely to have an immediate effect. A low time-to-live on the record needs to be considered. 8.4. Unreported Fraud An attacker can craft fraudulent DKIM-Signature fields on messages, without using "r=" tags, and avoid having these reported. The procedure described in Section 3.3 does not permit the detection and reporting of such cases. It might be useful to some Signers to receive such reports, but the mechanism does not support it. To offer such support, a Verifier would have to violate the first step in the procedure and continue even in the absence of an "r=" tag. Although that would enable the desired report, it would also create a possible denial-of-service attack: such Verifiers would always look for the reporting TXT record, so a generator of fraudulent messages could simply send a large volume of messages without an "r=" tag to a number of destinations. To avoid that outcome, reports of fraudulent DKIM-Signature header fields are not possible using the published mechanism. 9. References 9.1. Normative References [ABNF] Crocker, D., Ed., and P.

Example Use of DKIM Signature Extension Tag This example shows a DKIM-Signature field using the extension tag defined by this document: DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=simple/simple; d=example.com; s=jan2012; r=y; h=from:to:subject:date:message-id; bh=YJAYwiNdc3wMh6TD8FjVhtmxaHYHo7Z/06kHQYvQ4tQ=; b=jHF3tpgqr6nH/icHKIqFK2IJPtCLF0CRJaz2Hj1Y8yNwTJ IMYIZtLccho3ymGF2GYqvTl2nP/cn4dH+55rH5pqkWNnuJ R9z54CFcanoKKcl9wOZzK9i5KxM0DTzfs0r8 Example 1: DKIM-Signature Field Using This Extension This example DKIM-Signature field contains the "r=" tag that indicates reports are requested on verification failure. Assuming the public key retrieved from the DNS and processed according to [DKIM] would determine that the signature is invalid, a TXT query will be sent to "_report._domainkey.example.com" to retrieve a reporting address and other report parameters as described in Section 3.3. Kucherawy Standards Track [Page 16] RFC 6651 DKIM Reporting Extensions June 2012 B.2. Example DKIM Reporting TXT Record An example DKIM Reporting TXT record as defined by this document is as follows: ra=dkim-errors; rp=100; rr=v:x Example 2: Example DKIM Reporting TXT Record This example, continuing from the previous one, shows a message that might be found at "_report._domainkey.example.com" in a TXT record. It makes the following requests: o Reports about signature evaluation failures should be sent to the address "dkim-errors" at the Signer's domain; o All incidents (100%) should be reported; o Only reports about signature verification failures and expired signatures should be generated. B.3. Example Use of DKIM ADSP Extension Tags This example shows a DKIM ADSP record using the extensions defined by this document: dkim=all; ra=dkim-adsp-errors; rr=u Example 3: DKIM ADSP Record Using These Extensions This example ADSP record makes the following assertions: o The sending domain (i.e., the one that is advertising this policy) signs all mail it sends; o Reports about ADSP evaluation failures should be sent to the address "dkim-adsp-errors" at the Author's domain; o Only reports about unsigned messages should be generated.
