Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
1. Introduction
Public keys are frequently published in the form of a certificate and
their authenticity is commonly demonstrated by certificates and
related certificate revocation lists (CRLs). A certificate is a
binding, through a cryptographic digital signature, of a public key,
a validity interval and/or conditions, and identity, authorization,
or other information. A certificate revocation list is a list of
certificates that are revoked, and incidental information, all signed
by the signer (issuer) of the revoked certificates. Examples are
X.509 certificates/CRLs in the X.500 directory system or OpenPGP
certificates/revocations used by OpenPGP software.
Section 2 below specifies a CERT resource record (RR) for the storage
of certificates in the Domain Name System [1] [2].
Section 3 discusses appropriate owner names for CERT RRs.
Sections 4, 5, and 6 below cover performance, IANA, and security
considerations, respectively.
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 [3].
2. The CERT Resource Record
The CERT resource record (RR) has the structure given below. Its RR
type code is 37.
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| type | key tag |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| algorithm | /
+---------------+ certificate or CRL /
/ /
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-|
The type field is the certificate type as defined in section 2.1
below.
The key tag field is the 16 bit value computed for the key embedded
in the certificate, using the RRSIG Key Tag algorithm described in
Appendix B of [10]. This field is used as an efficiency measure to
pick which CERT RRs may be applicable to a particular key. The key
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
tag can be calculated for the key in question and then only CERT RRs
with the same key tag need be examined. However, the key must always
be transformed to the format it would have as the public key portion
of a DNSKEY RR before the key tag is computed. This is only possible
if the key is applicable to an algorithm (and limits such as key size
limits) defined for DNS security. If it is not, the algorithm field
MUST BE zero and the tag field is meaningless and SHOULD BE zero.
The algorithm field has the same meaning as the algorithm field in
DNSKEY and RRSIG RRs [10], except that a zero algorithm field
indicates the algorithm is unknown to a secure DNS, which may simply
be the result of the algorithm not having been standardized for
DNSSEC.
2.1. Certificate Type Values
The following values are defined or reserved:
Value Mnemonic Certificate Type
----- -------- ----------------
0 reserved
1 PKIX X.509 as per PKIX
2 SPKI SPKI certificate
3 PGP OpenPGP packet
4 IPKIX The URL of an X.509 data object
5 ISPKI The URL of an SPKI certificate
6 IPGP The URL of an OpenPGP packet
7-252 available for IANA assignment
253 URI URI private
254 OID OID private
255-65534 available for IANA assignment
65535 reserved
The PKIX type is reserved to indicate an X.509 certificate conforming
to the profile being defined by the IETF PKIX working group. The
certificate section will start with a one-byte unsigned OID length
and then an X.500 OID indicating the nature of the remainder of the
certificate section (see 2.3 below). (NOTE: X.509 certificates do
not include their X.500 directory type designating OID as a prefix.)
The SPKI type is reserved to indicate the SPKI certificate format
[13], for use when the SPKI documents are moved from experimental
status.
The PGP type indicates an OpenPGP packet as described in [6] and its
extensions and successors. Two uses are to transfer public key
material and revocation signatures. The data is binary, and MUST NOT
be encoded into an ASCII armor. An implementation SHOULD process
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
transferable public keys as described in section 10.1 of [6], but it
MAY handle additional OpenPGP packets.
The IPKIX, ISPKI and IPGP types indicate a URL which will serve the
content that would have been in the "certificate, CRL or URL" field
of the corresponding (PKIX, SPKI or PGP) packet types. These types
are known as "indirect". These packet types MUST be used when the
content is too large to fit in the CERT RR, and MAY be used at the
implementer's discretion. They SHOULD NOT be used where the entire
UDP packet would have fit in 512 bytes.
The URI private type indicates a certificate format defined by an
absolute URI. The certificate portion of the CERT RR MUST begin with
a null terminated URI [5] and the data after the null is the private
format certificate itself. The URI SHOULD be such that a retrieval
from it will lead to documentation on the format of the certificate.
Recognition of private certificate types need not be based on URI
equality but can use various forms of pattern matching so that, for
example, subtype or version information can also be encoded into the
URI.
The OID private type indicates a private format certificate specified
by an ISO OID prefix. The certificate section will start with a one-
byte unsigned OID length and then a BER encoded OID indicating the
nature of the remainder of the certificate section. This can be an
X.509 certificate format or some other format. X.509 certificates
that conform to the IETF PKIX profile SHOULD be indicated by the PKIX
type, not the OID private type. Recognition of private certificate
types need not be based on OID equality but can use various forms of
pattern matching such as OID prefix.
2.2. Text Representation of CERT RRs
The RDATA portion of a CERT RR has the type field as an unsigned
decimal integer or as a mnemonic symbol as listed in section 2.1
above.
The key tag field is represented as an unsigned decimal integer.
The algorithm field is represented as an unsigned decimal integer or
a mnemonic symbol as listed in [10].
The certificate / CRL portion is represented in base 64 [14] and may
be divided up into any number of white space separated substrings,
down to single base 64 digits, which are concatenated to obtain the
full signature. These substrings can span lines using the standard
parenthesis.
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
Note that the certificate / CRL portion may have internal sub-fields,
but these do not appear in the master file representation. For
example, with type 254, there will be an OID size, an OID, and then
the certificate / CRL proper. But only a single logical base 64
string will appear in the text representation.
2.3. X.509 OIDs
OIDs have been defined in connection with the X.500 directory for
user certificates, certification authority certificates, revocations
of certification authority, and revocations of user certificates.
The following table lists the OIDs, their BER encoding, and their
length-prefixed hex format for use in CERT RRs:
id-at-userCertificate
= { joint-iso-ccitt(2) ds(5) at(4) 36 }
== 0x 03 55 04 24
id-at-cACertificate
= { joint-iso-ccitt(2) ds(5) at(4) 37 }
== 0x 03 55 04 25
id-at-authorityRevocationList
= { joint-iso-ccitt(2) ds(5) at(4) 38 }
== 0x 03 55 04 26
id-at-certificateRevocationList
= { joint-iso-ccitt(2) ds(5) at(4) 39 }
== 0x 03 55 04 27
3. Appropriate Owner Names for CERT RRs
It is recommended that certificate CERT RRs be stored under a domain
name related to their subject, i.e., the name of the entity intended
to control the private key corresponding to the public key being
certified. It is recommended that certificate revocation list CERT
RRs be stored under a domain name related to their issuer.
Following some of the guidelines below may result in the use in DNS
names of characters that require DNS quoting which is to use a
backslash followed by the octal representation of the ASCII code for
the character (e.g., \000 for NULL).
The choice of name under which CERT RRs are stored is important to
clients that perform CERT queries. In some situations, the clients
may not know all information about the CERT RR object it wishes to
retrieve. For example, a client may not know the subject name of an
X.509 certificate, or the e-mail address of the owner of an OpenPGP
key. Further, the client might only know the hostname of a service
that uses X.509 certificates or the Key ID of an OpenPGP key.
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
Therefore, two owner name guidelines are defined: content-based owner
names and purpose-based owner names. A content-based owner name is
derived from the content of the CERT RR data; for example, the
Subject field in an X.509 certificate or the User ID field in OpenPGP
keys. A purpose-based owner name is a name that a client retrieving
CERT RRs MUST already know; for example, the host name of an X.509
protected service or the Key ID of an OpenPGP key. The content-based
and purpose-based owner name MAY be the same; for example, when a
client looks up a key based on the From: address of an incoming
e-mail.
Implementations SHOULD use the purpose-based owner name guidelines
described in this document, and MAY use CNAMEs of content-based owner
names (or other names), pointing to the purpose-based owner name.
3.1. Content-based X.509 CERT RR Names
Some X.509 versions permit multiple names to be associated with
subjects and issuers under "Subject Alternate Name" and "Issuer
Alternate Name". For example, X.509v3 has such Alternate Names with
an ASN.1 specification as follows:
GeneralName ::= CHOICE {
otherName [0] INSTANCE OF OTHER-NAME,
rfc822Name [1] IA5String,
dNSName [2] IA5String,
x400Address [3] EXPLICIT OR-ADDRESS.&Type,
directoryName [4] EXPLICIT Name,
ediPartyName [5] EDIPartyName,
uniformResourceIdentifier [6] IA5String,
iPAddress [7] OCTET STRING,
registeredID [8] OBJECT IDENTIFIER
}
The recommended locations of CERT storage are as follows, in priority
order:
1. If a domain name is included in the identification in the
certificate or CRL, that should be used.
2. If a domain name is not included but an IP address is included,
then the translation of that IP address into the appropriate
inverse domain name should be used.
3. If neither of the above is used, but a URI containing a domain
name is present, that domain name should be used.
4. If none of the above is included but a character string name is
included, then it should be treated as described for OpenPGP
names below.
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
5. If none of the above apply, then the distinguished name (DN)
should be mapped into a domain name as specified in [4].
Example 1: An X.509v3 certificate is issued to /CN=John Doe /DC=Doe/
DC=com/DC=xy/O=Doe Inc/C=XY/ with Subject Alternative Names of (a)
string "John (the Man) Doe", (b) domain name john-doe.com, and (c)
uri <https://www.secure.john-doe.com:8080/>. The storage locations
recommended, in priority order, would be
1. john-doe.com,
2. www.secure.john-doe.com, and
3. Doe.com.xy.
Example 2: An X.509v3 certificate is issued to /CN=James Hacker/
L=Basingstoke/O=Widget Inc/C=GB/ with Subject Alternate names of (a)
domain name widget.foo.example, (b) IPv4 address 10.251.13.201, and
(c) string "James Hacker <hacker@mail.widget.foo.example>". The
storage locations recommended, in priority order, would be
1. widget.foo.example,
2. 201.13.251.10.in-addr.arpa, and
3. hacker.mail.widget.foo.example.
3.2. Purpose-based X.509 CERT RR Names
Due to the difficulty for clients that do not already possess a
certificate to reconstruct the content-based owner name, purpose-
based owner names are recommended in this section. Recommendations
for purpose-based owner names vary per scenario. The following table
summarizes the purpose-based X.509 CERT RR owner name guidelines for
use with S/MIME [16], SSL/TLS [11], and IPSEC [12]:
Scenario Owner name
------------------ ----------------------------------------------
S/MIME Certificate Standard translation of an RFC 2822 email
address. Example: An S/MIME certificate for
"postmaster@example.org" will use a standard
hostname translation of the owner name,
"postmaster.example.org".
TLS Certificate Hostname of the TLS server.
IPSEC Certificate Hostname of the IPSEC machine and/or, for IPv4
or IPv6 addresses, the fully qualified domain
name in the appropriate reverse domain.
An alternate approach for IPSEC is to store raw public keys [15].
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
3.3. Content-based OpenPGP CERT RR Names
OpenPGP signed keys (certificates) use a general character string
User ID [6]. However, it is recommended by OpenPGP that such names
include the RFC 2822 [8] email address of the party, as in "Leslie
Example <Leslie@host.example>". If such a format is used, the CERT
should be under the standard translation of the email address into a
domain name, which would be leslie.host.example in this case. If no
RFC 2822 name can be extracted from the string name, no specific
domain name is recommended.
If a user has more than one email address, the CNAME type can be used
to reduce the amount of data stored in the DNS. Example:
$ORIGIN example.org.
smith IN CERT PGP 0 0 <OpenPGP binary>
john.smith IN CNAME smith
js IN CNAME smith
3.4. Purpose-based OpenPGP CERT RR Names
Applications that receive an OpenPGP packet containing encrypted or
signed data but do not know the email address of the sender will have
difficulties constructing the correct owner name and cannot use the
content-based owner name guidelines. However, these clients commonly
know the key fingerprint or the Key ID. The key ID is found in
OpenPGP packets, and the key fingerprint is commonly found in
auxilliary data that may be available. In this case, use of an owner
name identical to the key fingerprint and the key ID expressed in
hexadecimal [14] is recommended. Example:
$ORIGIN example.org.
0424D4EE81A0E3D119C6F835EDA21E94B565716F IN CERT PGP ...
F835EDA21E94B565716F IN CERT PGP ...
B565716F IN CERT PGP ...
If the same key material is stored for several owner names, the use
of CNAME may be used to avoid data duplication. Note that CNAME is
not always applicable, because it maps one owner name to the other
for all purposes, which may be sub-optimal when two keys with the
same Key ID are stored.
3.5. Owner names for IPKIX, ISPKI, and IPGP
These types are stored under the same owner names, both purpose- and
content-based, as the PKIX, SPKI and PGP types.
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
4. Performance Considerations
Current Domain Name System (DNS) implementations are optimized for
small transfers, typically not more than 512 bytes including
overhead. While larger transfers will perform correctly and work is
underway to make larger transfers more efficient, it is still
advisable at this time to make every reasonable effort to minimize
the size of certificates stored within the DNS. Steps that can be
taken may include using the fewest possible optional or extension
fields and using short field values for necessary variable length
fields.
The RDATA field in the DNS protocol may only hold data of size 65535
octets (64kb) or less. This means that each CERT RR MUST NOT contain
more than 64kb of payload, even if the corresponding certificate or
certificate revocation list is larger. This document addresses this
by defining "indirect" data types for each normal type.
5. Contributors
The majority of this document is copied verbatim from RFC 2538, by
Donald Eastlake 3rd and Olafur Gudmundsson.
6. Acknowledgements
Thanks to David Shaw and Michael Graff for their contributions to
earlier works that motivated, and served as inspiration for, this
document.
This document was improved by suggestions and comments from Olivier
Dubuisson, Olaf M. Kolkman, Ben Laurie, Edward Lewis, Jason
Sloderbeck, Samuel Weiler, and Florian Weimer. No doubt the list is
incomplete. We apologize to anyone we left out.
7. Security Considerations
By definition, certificates contain their own authenticating
signature. Thus, it is reasonable to store certificates in non-
secure DNS zones or to retrieve certificates from DNS with DNS
security checking not implemented or deferred for efficiency. The
results MAY be trusted if the certificate chain is verified back to a
known trusted key and this conforms with the user's security policy.
Alternatively, if certificates are retrieved from a secure DNS zone
with DNS security checking enabled and are verified by DNS security,
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
the key within the retrieved certificate MAY be trusted without
verifying the certificate chain if this conforms with the user's
security policy.
If an organization chooses to issue certificates for it's employees,
placing CERT RR's in the DNS by owner name, and if DNSSEC (with NSEC)
is in use, it is possible for someone to enumerate all employees of
the organization. This is usually not considered desirable, for the
same reason enterprise phone listings are not often publicly
published and are even mark confidential.
When the URI type is used, it should be understood that it introduces
an additional indirection that may allow for a new attack vector.
One method to secure that indirection is to include a hash of the
certificate in the URI itself.
CERT RRs are not used by DNSSEC [9], so there are no security
considerations related to CERT RRs and securing the DNS itself.
If DNSSEC is used, then the non-existence of a CERT RR and,
consequently, certificates or revocation lists can be securely
asserted. Without DNSSEC, this is not possible.
8. IANA Considerations
Certificate types 0x0000 through 0x00FF and 0xFF00 through 0xFFFF can
only be assigned by an IETF standards action [7]. This document
assigns 0x0001 through 0x0006 and 0x00FD and 0x00FE. Certificate
types 0x0100 through 0xFEFF are assigned through IETF Consensus [7]
based on RFC documentation of the certificate type. The availability
of private types under 0x00FD and 0x00FE should satisfy most
requirements for proprietary or private types.
The CERT RR reuses the DNS Security Algorithm Numbers registry. In
particular, the CERT RR requires that algorithm number 0 remain
reserved, as described in Section 2. The IANA is directed to
reference the CERT RR as a user of this registry and value 0, in
particular.
9. Changes since RFC 2538
1. Editorial changes to conform with new document requirements,
including splitting reference section into two parts and
updating the references to point at latest versions, and to add
some additional references.
Josefsson Expires March 3, 2006 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft Storing Certificates in the DNS August 2005
2. Improve terminology. For example replace "PGP" with "OpenPGP",
to align with RFC 2440.
3. In section 2.1, clarify that OpenPGP public key data are binary,
not the ASCII armored format, and reference 10.1 in RFC 2440 on
how to deal with OpenPGP keys, and acknowledge that
implementations may handle additional packet types.
4. Clarify that integers in the representation format are decimal.
5. Replace KEY/SIG with DNSKEY/RRSIG etc, to align with DNSSECbis
terminology. Improve reference for Key Tag Algorithm
calculations.
6. Add examples that suggest use of CNAME to reduce bandwidth.
7. In section 3, appended the last paragraphs that discuss
"content-based" vs "purpose-based" owner names. Add section 3.2
for purpose-based X.509 CERT owner names, and section 3.4 for
purpose-based OpenPGP CERT owner names.
8. Added size considerations.
9. The SPKI types has been reserved, until RFC 2692/2693 is moved
from the experimental status.
10. Added indirect types IPKIX, ISPKI, and IPGP.
