Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


1.  Introduction

   The Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) concept has been designed to
   separate a regular operating system, also referred as a Rich
   Execution Environment (REE), from security-sensitive applications.
   In a TEE ecosystem, device vendors may use different operating
   systems in the REE and may use different types of TEEs.  When Trusted
   Component Developers or Device Administrators use Trusted Application
   Managers (TAMs) to install, update, and delete Trusted Applications
   and their dependencies on a wide range of devices with potentially
   different TEEs then an interoperability need arises.

   This document specifies the protocol for communicating between a TAM
   and a TEEP Agent.

   The Trusted Execution Environment Provisioning (TEEP) architecture
   document [RFC9397] provides design guidance and introduces the
   necessary terminology.

2.  Terminology

   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.

   This specification re-uses the terminology defined in [RFC9397].

   As explained in Section 4.4 of that document, the TEEP protocol
   treats each Trusted Application (TA), any dependencies the TA has,
   and personalization data as separate components that are expressed in
   SUIT manifests, and a SUIT manifest might contain or reference
   multiple binaries (see [I-D.ietf-suit-manifest] for more details).

   As such, the term Trusted Component (TC) in this document refers to a
   set of binaries expressed in a SUIT manifest, to be installed in a
   TEE.  Note that a Trusted Component may include one or more TAs and/
   or configuration data and keys needed by a TA to operate correctly.

   Each Trusted Component is uniquely identified by a SUIT Component
   Identifier (see [I-D.ietf-suit-manifest] Section 8.7.2.2).

   Attestation related terms, such as Evidence and Attestation Results,
   are as defined in [RFC9334].

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


3.  Message Overview

   The TEEP protocol consists of messages exchanged between a TAM and a
   TEEP Agent.  The messages are encoded in CBOR and designed to provide
   end-to-end security.  TEEP protocol messages are signed by the
   endpoints, i.e., the TAM and the TEEP Agent, but Trusted Applications
   may also be encrypted and signed by a Trusted Component Developer or
   Device Administrator.  The TEEP protocol not only uses CBOR but also
   the respective security wrapper, namely COSE [RFC9052].  Furthermore,
   for software updates the SUIT manifest format
   [I-D.ietf-suit-manifest] is used, and for attestation the Entity
   Attestation Token (EAT) [I-D.ietf-rats-eat] format is supported
   although other attestation formats are also permitted.

   This specification defines five messages: QueryRequest,
   QueryResponse, Update, Success, and Error.

   A TAM queries a device's current state with a QueryRequest message.
   A TEEP Agent will, after authenticating and authorizing the request,
   report attestation information, list all Trusted Components, and
   provide information about supported algorithms and extensions in a
   QueryResponse message.  An error message is returned if the request
   could not be processed.  A TAM will process the QueryResponse message
   and determine whether to initiate subsequent message exchanges to
   install, update, or delete Trusted Applications.

     +------------+           +-------------+
     | TAM        |           |TEEP Agent   |
     +------------+           +-------------+

       QueryRequest ------->

                              QueryResponse

                    <-------     or

                                Error

   With the Update message a TAM can instruct a TEEP Agent to install
   and/or delete one or more Trusted Components.  The TEEP Agent will
   process the message, determine whether the TAM is authorized and
   whether the Trusted Component has been signed by an authorized
   Trusted Component Signer.  A Success message is returned when the
   operation has been completed successfully, or an Error message
   otherwise.

4.  Detailed Messages Specification

   TEEP messages are protected by the COSE_Sign1 or COSE_Sign structure
   as described in Section 8.1.  The TEEP protocol messages are
   described in CDDL format [RFC8610] below.

   teep-message = $teep-message-type .within teep-message-framework

   teep-message-framework = [
     type: $teep-type / $teep-type-extension,
     options: { * teep-option },
     * any; further elements, e.g., for data-item-requested
   ]

   teep-option = (uint => any)

   ; messages defined below:
   $teep-message-type /= query-request
   $teep-message-type /= query-response
   $teep-message-type /= update
   $teep-message-type /= teep-success
   $teep-message-type /= teep-error

   ; message type numbers, in one byte which could take a number from 0 to 23
   $teep-type = (0..23)
   TEEP-TYPE-query-request = 1
   TEEP-TYPE-query-response = 2
   TEEP-TYPE-update = 3
   TEEP-TYPE-teep-success = 5
   TEEP-TYPE-teep-error = 6

4.1.  Creating and Validating TEEP Messages

4.1.1.  Creating a TEEP message

   To create a TEEP message, the following steps are performed.

   1.  Create a TEEP message according to the description below and
       populate it with the respective content.  TEEP messages sent by
       TAMs (QueryRequest and Update) can include a "token".  The TAM
       can decide, in any implementation-specific way, whether to
       include a token in a message.  The first usage of a token
       generated by a TAM MUST be randomly created.  Subsequent token
       values MUST be different for each subsequent message created by a
       TAM.

   2.  Create a COSE Header containing the desired set of Header
       Parameters.  The COSE Header MUST be valid per the [RFC9052]
       specification.

   3.  Create a COSE_Sign1 or COSE_Sign object using the TEEP message as
       the COSE_Sign1 or COSE_Sign Payload; all steps specified in
       [RFC9052] for creating a COSE_Sign1 or COSE_Sign object MUST be
       followed.

4.1.2.  Validating a TEEP Message

   When a TEEP message is received (see the ProcessTeepMessage
   conceptual API defined in Section 6.2.1 of [RFC9397]), the following
   validation steps are performed.  If any of the listed steps fail,
   then the TEEP message MUST be rejected.

   1.  Verify that the received message is a valid CBOR object.

   2.  Verify that the message contains a COSE_Sign1 or COSE_Sign
       structure.

   3.  Verify that the resulting COSE Header includes only parameters
       and values whose syntax and semantics are both understood and
       supported or that are specified as being ignored when not
       understood.

   4.  Follow the steps specified in Section 4 of [RFC9052] ("Signing
       Objects") for validating a COSE_Sign1 or COSE_Sign object.  The
       COSE_Sign1 or COSE_Sign payload is the content of the TEEP
       message.

   5.  Verify that the TEEP message is a valid CBOR map and verify the
       fields of the TEEP message according to this specification.

4.2.  QueryRequest Message

   A QueryRequest message is used by the TAM to learn information from
   the TEEP Agent, such as the features supported by the TEEP Agent,
   including cipher suites and protocol versions.  Additionally, the TAM
   can selectively request data items from the TEEP Agent by using the
   data-item-requested parameter.  Currently, the following features are
   supported:

   *  Request for attestation information of the TEEP Agent,

   *  Listing supported extensions,

   *  Querying installed Trusted Components, and

   *  Request for logging information in SUIT Reports.

   Like other TEEP messages, the QueryRequest message is signed, and the
   relevant CDDL snippet is shown below.  The complete CDDL structure is
   shown in Appendix C.

   query-request = [
     type: TEEP-TYPE-query-request,
     options: {
       ? token => bstr .size (8..64),
       ? supported-freshness-mechanisms => [ + $freshness-mechanism ],
       ? challenge => bstr .size (8..512),
       ? versions => [ + version ],
       ? attestation-payload-format => text,
       ? attestation-payload => bstr,
       ? suit-reports => [ + bstr ],
       * $$query-request-extensions,
       * $$teep-option-extensions
     },

   ]

   version = uint .size 4
   ext-info = uint .size 4

   ; data items as bitmaps
   data-item-requested = &(
     attestation: 0,
     trusted-components: 1,
     extensions: 2,
     suit-reports: 3,
   )

   The message has the following fields:

   type
      The value of (1) corresponds to a QueryRequest message sent from
      the TAM to the TEEP Agent.

   token
      The value in the token parameter is used to match responses to
      requests, such as to look up any implementation-specific state it
      might have saved about that request, or to ignore responses to
      older QueryRequest messages before some configuration changes were
      made that affected their content.  This is particularly useful
      when a TAM issues multiple concurrent requests to a TEEP Agent.
      The token MUST be present if and only if the attestation bit is
      clear in the data-item-requested value.  When the attestation bit
      is clear then a challenge will be included, which offers replay
      protection capabilities.  The size of the token is at least 8
      bytes (64 bits) and maximum of 64 bytes.  The first usage of a
      token generated by a TAM MUST be randomly created.  Subsequent

      token values MUST be different for each request message to
      distinguish the correct response from multiple requests.  The
      token value MUST NOT be used for other purposes, such as a TAM to
      identify the devices and/or a device to identify TAMs or Trusted
      Components.  The TAM SHOULD set an expiration time for each token
      and MUST ignore any messages with expired tokens.  The TAM MUST
      expire the token value after receiving the first response
      containing the token value and ignore any subsequent messages that
      have the same token value.

   supported-teep-cipher-suites
      The supported-teep-cipher-suites parameter lists the TEEP cipher
      suites supported by the TAM.  Details about the cipher suite
      encoding can be found in Section 8.1.

   supported-suit-cose-profiles
      The supported-suit-cose-profiles parameter lists the SUIT profiles
      supported by the TAM for parsing SUIT Reports.  Details about the
      cipher suite encoding can be found in Section 8.2.

   data-item-requested
      The data-item-requested parameter indicates what information the
      TAM requests from the TEEP Agent in the form of a bitmap.

      attestation (1)  With this value the TAM requests the TEEP Agent
         to return an attestation payload, whether Evidence (e.g., an
         EAT) or an Attestation Result, in the response.

      trusted-components (2)  With this value the TAM queries the TEEP
         Agent for all installed Trusted Components.

      extensions (4)  With this value the TAM queries the TEEP Agent for
         supported capabilities and extensions, which allows a TAM to
         discover the capabilities of a TEEP Agent implementation.

      suit-reports (8)  With this value the TAM requests the TEEP Agent
         to return SUIT Reports in the response.

      Further values may be added in the future.

   supported-freshness-mechanisms
      The supported-freshness-mechanisms parameter lists the freshness
      mechanism(s) supported by the TAM.  Details about the encoding can
      be found in Section 9.  If this parameter is absent, it means only
      the nonce mechanism is supported.  It MUST be absent if the
      attestation bit is clear.

   challenge

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


      The challenge field is an optional parameter used for ensuring the
      freshness of attestation Evidence returned with a QueryResponse
      message.  It MUST be absent if the attestation bit is clear or the
      Passport model is used.  When a challenge is provided in the
      QueryRequest and Evidence in the form of an EAT is returned with a
      QueryResponse message then the challenge contained in the
      QueryRequest MUST be used to generate the EAT, by copying the
      challenge into the eat_nonce claim (Section 4.1 of Section 5) if
      the nonce-based freshness mechanism is used for attestation
      Evidence.  For more details about freshness of Evidence see
      Section 9.

      If any format other than EAT is used, it is up to that format to
      define the use of the challenge field.

   versions
      The versions parameter enumerates the TEEP protocol version(s)
      supported by the TAM.  A value of 0 refers to the current version
      of the TEEP protocol.  If this field is not present, it is to be
      treated the same as if it contained only version 0.

   attestation-payload-format
      The attestation-payload-format parameter indicates the IANA Media
      Type of the attestation-payload parameter, where media type
      parameters are permitted after the media type.  For protocol
      version 0, the absence of this parameter indicates that the format
      is "application/eat+cwt; eat_profile=urn:ietf:rfc:rfcXXXX" (see
      [I-D.ietf-rats-eat-media-type] for further discussion).  (RFC-
      editor: upon RFC publication, replace XXXX above with the RFC
      number of this document.)  It MUST be present if the attestation-
      payload parameter is present and the format is not an EAT in CWT
      format with the profile defined below in Section 5.

   attestation-payload
      The attestation-payload parameter contains Evidence or an
      Attestation Result for the TEEP Agent to use to perform
      attestation of the TAM.  If the attestation-payload-format
      parameter is absent, the attestation payload contained in this
      parameter MUST be an Entity Attestation Token following the
      encoding defined in [I-D.ietf-rats-eat].  See Section 4.3.1 for
      further discussion.

   suit-reports
      If present, the suit-reports parameter contains a set of "boot"
      (including starting an executable in an OS context) time SUIT
      Reports of the TAM as defined by SUIT_Report in Section 4 of
      [I-D.ietf-suit-report], encoded using COSE as discussed in
      Section 8.2.  SUIT Reports can be useful in QueryRequest messages

      to pass additional information about the TAM to the TEEP Agent
      without depending on a Verifier including the relevant information
      in the TAM's Attestation Results.

4.3.  QueryResponse Message

   The QueryResponse message is the successful response by the TEEP
   Agent after receiving a QueryRequest message.  As discussed in
   Section 7.2, it can also be sent unsolicited if the contents of the
   QueryRequest are already known and do not vary per message.

   Like other TEEP messages, the QueryResponse message is signed, and
   the relevant CDDL snippet is shown below.  The complete CDDL
   structure is shown in Appendix C.

   query-response = [
     type: TEEP-TYPE-query-response,
     options: {
       ? token => bstr .size (8..64),
       ? selected-version => version,
       ? attestation-payload-format => text,
       ? attestation-payload => bstr,
       ? suit-reports => [ + bstr ],
       ? tc-list => [ + system-property-claims ],
       ? requested-tc-list => [ + requested-tc-info ],
       ? unneeded-manifest-list => [ + SUIT_Component_Identifier ],
       ? ext-list => [ + ext-info ],
       * $$query-response-extensions,
       * $$teep-option-extensions
     }
   ]

   requested-tc-info = {
     component-id => SUIT_Component_Identifier,
     ? tc-manifest-sequence-number => uint .size 8,
     ? have-binary => bool
   }

   The QueryResponse message has the following fields:

   type
      The value of (2) corresponds to a QueryResponse message sent from
      the TEEP Agent to the TAM.

   token






Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 12]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


      The value in the token parameter is used to match responses to
      requests.  The value MUST correspond to the value received with
      the QueryRequest message if one was present, and MUST be absent if
      no token was present in the QueryRequest.

   selected-version
      The selected-version parameter indicates the TEEP protocol version
      selected by the TEEP Agent.  The absence of this parameter
      indicates the same as if it was present with a value of 0.

   attestation-payload-format
      The attestation-payload-format parameter indicates the IANA Media
      Type of the attestation-payload parameter, where media type
      parameters are permitted after the media type.  For protocol
      version 0, the absence of this parameter indicates that the format
      is "application/eat+cwt; eat_profile=urn:ietf:rfc:rfcXXXX" (see
      [I-D.ietf-rats-eat-media-type] for further discussion).  (RFC-
      editor: upon RFC publication, replace XXXX above with the RFC
      number of this document.)  It MUST be present if the attestation-
      payload parameter is present and the format is not an EAT in CWT
      format with the profile defined below in Section 5.

   attestation-payload
      The attestation-payload parameter contains Evidence or an
      Attestation Result.  This parameter MUST be present if the
      QueryResponse is sent in response to a QueryRequest with the
      attestation bit set.  If the attestation-payload-format parameter
      is absent, the attestation payload contained in this parameter
      MUST be an Entity Attestation Token following the encoding defined
      in [I-D.ietf-rats-eat].  See Section 4.3.1 for further discussion.

   suit-reports
      If present, the suit-reports parameter contains a set of "boot"
      (including starting an executable in an OS context) time SUIT
      Reports as defined by SUIT_Report in Section 4 of
      [I-D.ietf-suit-report], encoded using COSE as discussed in
      Section 8.2.  If a token parameter was present in the QueryRequest
      message the QueryResponse message is in response to, the suit-
      report-nonce field MUST be present in the SUIT Report with a value
      matching the token parameter in the QueryRequest message.  SUIT
      Reports can be useful in QueryResponse messages to pass
      information to the TAM without depending on a Verifier including
      the relevant information in Attestation Results.

   tc-list
      The tc-list parameter enumerates the Trusted Components installed
      on the device in the form of system-property-claims objects, as
      defined in Section 4 of [I-D.ietf-suit-report].  The system-



Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 13]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


      property-claims can be used to learn device identifying
      information and TEE identifying information for distinguishing
      which Trusted Components to install in the TEE.  This parameter
      MUST be present if the QueryResponse is sent in response to a
      QueryRequest with the trusted-components bit set.

   requested-tc-list
      The requested-tc-list parameter enumerates the Trusted Components
      that are not currently installed in the TEE, but which are
      requested to be installed, for example by an installer of an
      Untrusted Application that has a TA as a dependency, or by a
      Trusted Application that has another Trusted Component as a
      dependency.  Requested Trusted Components are expressed in the
      form of requested-tc-info objects.  A TEEP Agent can get this
      information from the RequestTA conceptual API defined in [RFC9397]
      section 6.2.1.

   unneeded-manifest-list
      The unneeded-manifest-list parameter enumerates the SUIT manifests
      whose components are currently installed in the TEE, but which are
      no longer needed by any other application.  The TAM can use this
      information in determining whether a SUIT manifest can be
      unlinked.  Each unneeded SUIT manifest is identified by its SUIT
      Manifest Component ID (note that this is the Component ID for the
      manifest itself, which is different from the Component ID of a
      component installed by the manifest, see
      [I-D.ietf-suit-trust-domains] for more discussion).  A TEEP Agent
      can get this information from the UnrequestTA conceptual API
      defined in [RFC9397] section 6.2.1.

   ext-list
      The ext-list parameter lists the supported extensions.  This
      document does not define any extensions.  This parameter MUST be
      present if the QueryResponse is sent in response to a QueryRequest
      with the extensions bit set.

   The requested-tc-info message has the following fields:

   component-id
      A SUIT Component Identifier.

   tc-manifest-sequence-number
      The minimum suit-manifest-sequence-number value from a SUIT
      manifest for the Trusted Component.  If not present, indicates
      that any sequence number will do.

   have-binary

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


      If present with a value of true, indicates that the TEEP Agent
      already has the Trusted Component binary and only needs an Update
      message with a SUIT manifest that authorizes installing it.  If
      have-binary is true, the tc-manifest-sequence-number field MUST be
      present.

4.3.1.  Evidence and Attestation Results

   Section 7 of [RFC9397] lists information that may appear in Evidence
   depending on the circumstance.  However, the Evidence is opaque to
   the TEEP protocol and there are no formal requirements on the
   contents of Evidence.

   TAMs however consume Attestation Results and do need enough
   information therein to make decisions on how to remediate a TEE that
   is out of compliance, or update a TEE that is requesting an
   authorized change.  To do so, the information in Section 7 of
   [RFC9397] is often required depending on the policy.

   Attestation Results SHOULD use Entity Attestation Tokens (EATs).  Use
   of any other format, such as a widely implemented format for a
   specific processor vendor, is permitted but increases the complexity
   of the TAM by requiring it to understand the format for each such
   format rather than only the common EAT format so is not recommended.

   When an EAT is used, the following claims can be used to meet those
   requirements, whether these claims appear in Attestation Results, or
   in Evidence for the Verifier to use when generating Attestation
   Results of some form:

   The "manifests" claim (see Section 4.2.15 of [I-D.ietf-rats-eat])
   should include information about the TEEP Agent as well as any of its
   dependencies such as firmware.

4.4.  Update Message

   The Update message is used by the TAM to install and/or delete one or
   more Trusted Components via the TEEP Agent.  It can also be used to
   pass a successful Attestation Report back to the TEEP Agent when the
   TAM is configured as an intermediary between the TEEP Agent and a
   Verifier, as shown in the figure below, where the Attestation Result
   passed back to the Attester can be used as a so-called "passport"
   (see section 5.1 of [RFC9334]) that can be presented to other Relying
   Parties.

       Figure 1: Example use of TEEP and attestation

   Like other TEEP messages, the Update message is signed, and the
   relevant CDDL snippet is shown below.  The complete CDDL structure is
   shown in Appendix C.

   update = [
     type: TEEP-TYPE-update,
     options: {
       ? token => bstr .size (8..64),
       ? unneeded-manifest-list => [ + SUIT_Component_Identifier ],
       ? manifest-list => [ + bstr .cbor SUIT_Envelope ],
       ? attestation-payload-format => text,
       ? attestation-payload => bstr,
       ? err-code => (0..23),
       ? err-msg => text .size (1..128),
       * $$update-extensions,
       * $$teep-option-extensions
     }
   ]

   The Update message has the following fields:

   type
      The value of (3) corresponds to an Update message sent from the
      TAM to the TEEP Agent.  In case of successful processing, a
      Success message is returned by the TEEP Agent.  In case of an
      error, an Error message is returned.  Note that the Update message
      is used for initial Trusted Component installation as well as for
      updates and deletes.

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   token
      The value in the token field is used to match responses to
      requests.

   unneeded-manifest-list
      The unneeded-manifest-list parameter enumerates the SUIT manifests
      to be unlinked.  Each unneeded SUIT manifest is identified by its
      SUIT Manifest Component ID.  The SUIT manifest processor MAY
      execute uninstall section in the manifest.  See Section 7 of
      [I-D.ietf-suit-trust-domains] for more information about the suit-
      uninstall Command Sequence.

   manifest-list
      The manifest-list field is used to convey one or multiple SUIT
      manifests to install.  A manifest is a bundle of metadata about a
      Trusted Component, such as where to find the code, the devices to
      which it applies, and cryptographic information protecting the
      manifest.  The manifest may also convey personalization data.
      Trusted Component binaries and personalization data can be signed
      and encrypted by the same Trusted Component Signer.  Other
      combinations are, however, possible as well.  For example, it is
      also possible for the TAM to sign and encrypt the personalization
      data and to let the Trusted Component Developer sign and/or
      encrypt the Trusted Component binary.

   attestation-payload-format
      The attestation-payload-format parameter indicates the IANA Media
      Type of the attestation-payload parameter, where media type
      parameters are permitted after the media type.  The absence of
      this parameter indicates that the format is "application/eat+cwt;
      eat_profile=urn:ietf:rfc:rfcXXXX" (see
      [I-D.ietf-rats-eat-media-type] for further discussion).  (RFC-
      editor: upon RFC publication, replace XXXX above with the RFC
      number of this document.)  It MUST be present if the attestation-
      payload parameter is present and the format is not an EAT in CWT
      format with the profile defined below in Section 5.

   attestation-payload
      The attestation-payload parameter contains an Attestation Result.
      This parameter If the attestation-payload-format parameter is
      absent, the attestation payload contained in this parameter MUST
      be an Entity Attestation Token following the encoding defined in
      [I-D.ietf-rats-eat].  See Section 4.3.1 for further discussion.

   err-code
      The err-code parameter contains one of the error codes listed in
      the Section 4.6, which describes the reasons for the error when
      performing QueryResponse in the TAM.



Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 18]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   err-msg
      The err-msg parameter is human-readable diagnostic text that MUST
      be encoded using UTF-8 [RFC3629] in Net-Unicode format [RFC5198]
      with a maximum of 128 bytes.

   Note that an Update message carrying one or more SUIT manifests will
   inherently involve multiple signatures, one by the TAM in the TEEP
   message and one from a Trusted Component Signer inside each manifest.
   This is intentional as they are for different purposes.

   The TAM is what authorizes apps to be installed, updated, and deleted
   on a given TEE and so the TEEP signature is checked by the TEEP Agent
   at protocol message processing time.  (This same TEEP security
   wrapper is also used on messages like QueryRequest so that Agents
   only send potentially sensitive data such as Evidence to trusted
   TAMs.)

   The Trusted Component signer on the other hand is what authorizes the
   Trusted Component to actually run, so the manifest signature could be
   checked at install time or load (or run) time or both, and this
   checking is done by the TEE independent of whether TEEP is used or
   some other update mechanism.  See section 5 of [RFC9397] for further
   discussion.

   The Update Message has a SUIT_Envelope containing SUIT manifests.
   Following are some example scenarios using SUIT manifests in the
   Update Message.

4.4.1.  Scenario 1: Having one SUIT Manifest pointing to a URI of a
        Trusted Component Binary

   In this scenario, a SUIT Manifest has a URI pointing to a Trusted
   Component Binary.

   A Trusted Component Developer creates a new Trusted Component Binary
   and hosts it at a Trusted Component Developer's URI.  Then the
   Trusted Component Developer generates an associated SUIT manifest
   with the filename "tc-uuid" that contains the URI.  The filename "tc-
   uuid" is used in Scenario 3 later.

   The TAM receives the latest SUIT manifest from the Trusted Component
   Developer, and the URI it contains will not be changeable by the TAM
   since the SUIT manifest is signed by the Trusted Component Developer.

   Pros:

   *  The Trusted Component Developer can ensure that the intact Trusted
      Component Binary is downloaded by devices

   *  The TAM does not have to send large Update messages containing the
      Trusted Component Binary

   Cons:

   *  The Trusted Component Developer must host the Trusted Component
      Binary server

   *  The device must fetch the Trusted Component Binary in another
      connection after receiving an Update message

   *  A device's IP address and therefore location may be revealed to
      the Trusted Component Binary server

4.4.2.  Scenario 2: Having a SUIT Manifest include the Trusted Component
        Binary

   In this scenario, the SUIT manifest contains the entire Trusted
   Component Binary as an integrated payload (see
   [I-D.ietf-suit-manifest] Section 7.5).

   A Trusted Component Developer delegates the task of delivering the
   Trusted Component Binary to the TAM inside the SUIT manifest.  The
   Trusted Component Developer creates a SUIT manifest and embeds the
   Trusted Component Binary, which is referenced in the suit-integrated-
   payload element containing the fragment-only reference "#tc", in the
   envelope.  The Trusted Component Developer transmits the entire
   bundle to the TAM.

   The TAM serves the SUIT manifest containing the Trusted Component
   Binary to the device in an Update message.

   Pros:

   *  The device can obtain the Trusted Component Binary and the SUIT
      manifest in one Update message.

   *  The Trusted Component Developer does not have to host a server to
      deliver the Trusted Component Binary to devices.

   Cons:

   *  The TAM must host the Trusted Component Binary rather than
      delegating storage to the Trusted Component Developer.

   *  The TAM must deliver Trusted Component Binaries in Update
      messages, which increases the size of the Update message.

4.4.3.  Scenario 3: Supplying Personalization Data for the Trusted
        Component Binary

   In this scenario, Personalization Data is associated with the Trusted
   Component Binary "tc-uuid" from Scenario 1.

   The Trusted Component Developer places encrypted Personalization Data
   in the SUIT manifest, and it will be delivered by the TAM.  The SUIT
   manifest processor decrypts it and then store it into file named
   "config.json", and then install the dependency component.

   The TAM delivers the SUIT manifest of the Personalization Data which
   depends on the Trusted Component Binary from Scenario 1.

   The Success message has the following fields:

   type
      The value of (5) corresponds to corresponds to a Success message
      sent from the TEEP Agent to the TAM.

   token
      The value in the token parameter is used to match responses to
      requests.  It MUST match the value of the token parameter in the
      Update message the Success is in response to, if one was present.
      If none was present, the token MUST be absent in the Success
      message.

   msg
      The msg parameter contains optional diagnostics information
      encoded in UTF-8 [RFC3629] using Net-Unicode form [RFC5198] with
      max 128 bytes returned by the TEEP Agent.

      If present, the suit-reports parameter contains a set of SUIT
      Reports as defined in Section 4 of [I-D.ietf-suit-report].  If a
      token parameter was present in the Update message the Success
      message is in response to, the suit-report-nonce field MUST be
      present in the SUIT Report with a value matching the token
      parameter in the Update message.

4.6.  Error Message

   The Error message is used by the TEEP Agent to return an error in
   response to a message from the TAM.

   Like other TEEP messages, the Error message is signed, and the
   relevant CDDL snippet is shown below.  The complete CDDL structure is
   shown in Appendix C.

   type
      The value of (6) corresponds to an Error message sent from the
      TEEP Agent to the TAM.

   token
      The value in the token parameter is used to match responses to
      requests.  It MUST match the value of the token parameter in the
      message the Success is in response to, if one was present.  If
      none was present, the token MUST be absent in the Error message.

   err-msg
      The err-msg parameter is human-readable diagnostic text that MUST
      be encoded using UTF-8 [RFC3629] using Net-Unicode form [RFC5198]
      with max 128 bytes.

   supported-teep-cipher-suites
      The supported-teep-cipher-suites parameter lists the TEEP cipher
      suite(s) supported by the TEEP Agent.  Details about the cipher
      suite encoding can be found in Section 8.1.  This otherwise
      optional parameter MUST be returned if err-code is
      ERR_UNSUPPORTED_CIPHER_SUITES.

   supported-freshness-mechanisms
      The supported-freshness-mechanisms parameter lists the freshness
      mechanism(s) supported by the TEEP Agent.  Details about the
      encoding can be found in Section 9.  This otherwise optional
      parameter MUST be returned if err-code is
      ERR_UNSUPPORTED_FRESHNESS_MECHANISMS.

   supported-suit-cose-profiles
      The supported-suit-cose-profiles parameter lists the SUIT profiles
      supported by the TEEP Agent.  Details about the cipher suite
      encoding can be found in Section 8.2.  This otherwise optional
      parameter MUST be returned if err-code is
      ERR_UNSUPPORTED_SUIT_REPORT.

   challenge
      The challenge field is an optional parameter used for ensuring the
      freshness of attestation Evidence included with a QueryRequest
      message.  When a challenge is provided in the Error message and
      Evidence in the form of an EAT is returned with a QueryRequest
      message then the challenge contained in the Error message MUST be
      used to generate the EAT, by copying the challenge value into the
      eat_nonce claim, as described in the EAT profile Section 5, if the
      nonce-based freshness mechanism is used.  For more details see
      Section 9.

      If any format other than EAT is used, it is up to that format to
      define the use of the challenge field.

   versions
      The versions parameter enumerates the TEEP protocol version(s)
      supported by the TEEP Agent.  This otherwise optional parameter
      MUST be returned if err-code is ERR_UNSUPPORTED_MSG_VERSION.

   suit-reports
      If present, the suit-reports parameter contains a set of SUIT
      Reports as defined in Section 4 of [I-D.ietf-suit-report].  If a
      token parameter was present in the Update message the Error
      message is in response to, the suit-report-nonce field MUST be
      present in the SUIT Report with a value matching the token
      parameter in the Update message.

   err-code
      The err-code parameter contains one of the error codes listed
      below).  Only selected values are applicable to each message.

   This specification defines the following initial error messages:

   ERR_PERMANENT_ERROR (1)
      The received TEEP message contained incorrect fields or fields
      that are inconsistent with other fields.  For diagnosis purposes
      it is RECOMMMENDED to identify the failure reason in the error
      message field.  A TEEP implementation receiving this error might
      refuse to communicate further with the problematic TEEP message
      sender, by silently dropping any TEEP messages received, for some
      period of time until it has reason to believe it is worth trying
      again, but it should take care not to give up on communication.
      In contrast, ERR_TEMPORARY_ERROR is an indication that a more
      aggressive retry is warranted.

   ERR_UNSUPPORTED_EXTENSION (2)
      The TEEP implementation does not support an extension included in
      the TEEP message it received.  For diagnosis purposes it is
      RECOMMMENDED to identify the unsupported extension in the error
      message field.  A TAM implementation receiving this error might
      retry sending the last message it sent to the sender of this
      error, without using any TEEP extensions.

   ERR_UNSUPPORTED_FRESHNESS_MECHANISMS (3)
      The TEEP Agent does not support any freshness algorithm mechanisms
      in the request message.  A TAM receiving this error might retry
      the request using a different set of supported freshness
      mechanisms in the request message.

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   ERR_UNSUPPORTED_MSG_VERSION (4)
      The TEEP implementation does not support the TEEP protocol version
      indicated in the received message.  A TAM receiving this error
      might retry the request using a different TEEP protocol version.

   ERR_UNSUPPORTED_CIPHER_SUITES (5)
      The TEEP Agent does not support any cipher suites indicated in the
      request message.  A TAM receiving this error might retry the
      request using a different set of supported cipher suites in the
      request message.

   ERR_BAD_CERTIFICATE (6)
      Processing of a certificate failed.  For diagnosis purposes it is
      RECOMMMENDED to include information about the failing certificate
      in the error message field.  For example, the certificate was of
      an unsupported type, or the certificate was revoked by its signer.
      A TEEP implementation receiving this error might attempt to use an
      alternate certificate.

   ERR_ATTESTATION_REQUIRED (7)
      Indicates that the TEEP implementation sending this error requires
      attestation of the TEEP imlementation receiving this error.

   ERR_UNSUPPORTED_SUIT_REPORT (8)
      Indicates that the TEEP Agent does not support the suit-cose-
      profile of the SUIT Reports which was sent by the TAM.  The TEEP
      Agent must report the error code ERR_UNSUPPORTED_SUIT_REPORT
      supplying the supported-suit-cose-profiles.

   ERR_CERTIFICATE_EXPIRED (9)
      A certificate has expired or is not currently valid.  A TEEP
      implementation receiving this error might attempt to renew its
      certificate before using it again.

   ERR_TEMPORARY_ERROR (10)
      A miscellaneous temporary error, such as a memory allocation
      failure, occurred while processing the TEEP message.  A TEEP
      implementation receiving this error might retry the last message
      it sent to the sender of this error at some later point, which is
      up to the implementation.

   ERR_MANIFEST_PROCESSING_FAILED (17)
      The TEEP Agent encountered one or more manifest processing
      failures.  If the suit-reports parameter is present, it contains
      the failure details.  A TAM receiving this error might still
      attempt to install or update other components that do not depend
      on the failed manifest.

   New error codes should be added sparingly, not for every
   implementation error.  That is the intent of the err-msg field, which
   can be used to provide details meaningful to humans.  New error codes
   should only be added if the TAM is expected to do something
   behaviorally different upon receipt of the error message, rather than
   just logging the event.  Hence, each error code is responsible for
   saying what the behavioral difference is expected to be.

5.  EAT Profile

   The TEEP protocol operates between a TEEP Agent and a TAM.  While the
   TEEP protocol does not require use of EAT, use of EAT is encouraged
   and Section 4.3 explicitly defines a way to carry an Entity
   Attestation Token in a QueryResponse.

   As discussed in Section 4.3.1, the content of Evidence is opaque to
   the TEEP architecture, but the content of Attestation Results is not,
   where Attestation Results flow between a Verifier and a TAM (as the
   Relying Party).  Although Attestation Results required by a TAM are
   separable from the TEEP protocol per se, this section is included as
   part of the requirements for building a compliant TAM that uses EATs
   for Attestation Results.

   Section 7 of [I-D.ietf-rats-eat] defines the requirement for Entity
   Attestation Token profiles.  This section defines an EAT profile for
   use with TEEP.

   *  profile-label: The profile-label for this specification is the URI

   <urn:ietf:rfc:rfcXXXX>.  (RFC-editor: upon RFC publication, replace
   XXXX with the RFC number of this document.)

   *  Use of JSON, CBOR, or both: CBOR only.

   *  CBOR Map and Array Encoding: Only definite length arrays and maps.

   *  CBOR String Encoding: Only definite-length strings are allowed.

   *  CBOR Preferred Serialization: Encoders must use preferred
      serialization, and decoders need not accept non-preferred
      serialization.

   *  CBOR Tags: CBOR Tags are not used.

   *  COSE/JOSE Protection: See Section 8.2.

   *  COSE/JOSE Algorithms: See Section 8.2.

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   *  Detached EAT Bundle Support: DEB use is permitted.

   *  Key Identification: COSE Key ID (kid) is used, where the key ID is
      the hash of a public key (where the public key may be used as a
      raw public key, or in a certificate) as specified in
      [I-D.ietf-cose-key-thumbprint].  See Section 7.1.1.1 and
      Section 7.2.1.1 for discussion on the choice of hash algorithm.

   *  Endorsement Identification: Optional, but semantics are the same
      as in Verification Key Identification.

   *  Freshness: See Section 9 for details.  When the eat_nonce claim is
      used, the value is a single bstr.

   *  Claims Requirements:

      -  The following claims are required: ueid, oemid, hwmodel,
         hwversion, manifests, and cnf.  See Section 4.3.1 for
         discussion.  Other claims are optional.

      -  See Section 9 for discussion affecting whether the eat_nonce
         claim is used.

      -  The sw-name claim for a Trusted Component holds the URI of the
         SUIT manifest for that component.

      -  The manifests claim uses a SUIT manifest, where the manifest
         body contains a SUIT_Reference as defined in Section 4 of
         [I-D.ietf-suit-report], and the content type is as defined in
         [I-D.ietf-suit-report].

   A TAM implementation might simply accept a TEEP Agent as trustworthy
   based on a successful Attestation Result, and if not then attempt to
   update the TEEP Agent and all of its dependencies.  This logic is
   simple but it might result in updating some components that do not
   need to be updated.

   An alternate TAM implementation might use any Additional Claims to
   determine whether the TEEP Agent or any of its dependencies are
   trustworthy, and only update the specific components that are out of
   date.

5.1.  Relationship to AR4SI

   [I-D.ietf-rats-ar4si] defines an EAT profile for arbitrary Relying
   Parties to use with Attestation Results.  However the TAM as a
   Relying Party needs specific claims that are not required in the
   AR4SI profile, and so needs its own more specific profile.



Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 31]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   In some deployments, a TAM can be used as an intermediary between
   Verifier and a TEEP Agent acting as an Attester in the Passport model
   or acting as a Relying Party in the Background Check Model of
   [RFC9334].  This is depicted in the example in Figure 1.  In such a
   case, both profiles need to be obtained from the Verifier: one for
   use by the TAM itself, and the other to pass on to the TEEP Agent.

   When the TAM and Verifier are combined into the same implementation,
   obtaining both profiles can be straightforward, but when they are on
   different machines, the situation is more complex, especially if
   Nonces are used to ensure freshness of Evidence.  There are thus
   several such cases:

   1.  The protocol between the TAM and the Verifier (which is outside
       the scope of TEEP itself) allows requesting multiple Attestation
       Results from the same Evidence.  In this case, the TAM can
       request both EAT profiles be returned.

   2.  The protocol between the TAM and the Verifier only allows
       requesting one Attestation Result format, but the Evidence
       freshness mechanism does not use Nonces.  In this case, the TAM
       can send the same Evidence in two separate requests, each
       requesting a different EAT profile for the Attestation Results.

   3.  The protocol between the TAM and the Verifier only allows
       requesting one Attestation Result format, and the Evidence
       freshness mechanism uses Nonces.  In this case, it is simpler to
       not have the TAM be an intermediary, since the Verifier will
       require a separate Nonce for each Attestation Result, but have
       the Attester or Relying Party contact the Verifier directly to
       get Attestation Results in the AR4SI profile.

6.  Mapping of TEEP Message Parameters to CBOR Labels

   In COSE, arrays and maps use strings, negative integers, and unsigned
   integers as their keys.  Integers are used for compactness of
   encoding.  Since the word "key" is mainly used in its other meaning,
   as a cryptographic key, this specification uses the term "label" for
   this usage as a map key.

   This specification uses the following mapping:

7.  Behavior Specification

   Behavior is specified in terms of the conceptual APIs defined in
   section 6.2.1 of [RFC9397].

7.1.  TAM Behavior

   When the ProcessConnect API is invoked, the TAM sends a QueryRequest
   message.

   When the ProcessTeepMessage API is invoked, the TAM first does
   validation as specified in Section 4.1.2, and drops the message if it
   is not valid.  It may also do additional implementation specific
   actions such as logging the results or attempting to update the TEEP
   Agent to a version that does not send invalid messages.  Otherwise,
   it proceeds as follows.

   If the message includes a token, it can be used to match the response
   to a request previously sent by the TAM.  The TAM MUST expire the
   token value after receiving the first response from the device that
   has a valid signature and ignore any subsequent messages that have
   the same token value.  The token value MUST NOT be used for other
   purposes, such as a TAM to identify the devices and/or a device to
   identify TAMs or Trusted Components.

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


7.1.1.  Handling a QueryResponse Message

   If a QueryResponse message is received, the TAM verifies the presence
   of any parameters required based on the data-items-requested in the
   QueryRequest, and also validates that the nonce in any SUIT Report
   matches the token sent in the QueryRequest message if a token was
   present.  If these requirements are not met, the TAM drops the
   message and sends an Update message containing an appropriate err-
   code and err-msg.  It may also do additional implementation specific
   actions such as logging the results.  If the requirements are met,
   processing continues as follows.

   If a QueryResponse message is received that contains an attestation-
   payload, the TAM checks whether it contains Evidence or an
   Attestation Result by inspecting the attestation-payload-format
   parameter.  The media type defined in Section 5 indicates an
   Attestation Result, though future extensions might also indicate
   other Attestation Result formats in the future.  Any other
   unrecognized value indicates Evidence.  If it contains an Attestation
   Result, processing continues as in Section 7.1.1.1.

   If the QueryResponse is instead determined to contain Evidence, the
   TAM passes the Evidence (via some mechanism out of scope of this
   document) to an attestation Verifier (see [RFC9334]) to determine
   whether the Agent is in a trustworthy state.  Once the TAM receives
   an Attestation Result from the Verifier, processing continues as in
   Section 7.1.1.1.

7.1.1.1.  Handling an Attestation Result

   The Attestation Result must first be validated as follows:

   1.  Verify that the Attestation Result was signed by a Verifier that
       the TAM trusts.

   2.  Verify that the Attestation Result contains a "cnf" claim (as
       defined in Section 3.1 of [RFC8747]) where the key ID is the hash
       of the TEEP Agent public key used to verify the signature on the
       TEEP message, and the hash is computed using the Digest Algorithm
       specified by one of the SUIT profiles supported by the TAM
       (SHA-256 for the ones mandated in this document).

       See Sections 3.4 and 6 of [RFC8747] for more discussion.

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   Based on the results of attestation (if any), any SUIT Reports, and
   the lists of installed, requested, and unneeded Trusted Components
   reported in the QueryResponse, the TAM determines, in any
   implementation specific manner, which Trusted Components need to be
   installed, updated, or deleted, if any.  There are in typically three
   cases:

   1.  Attestation failed.  This indicates that the rest of the
       information in the QueryResponse cannot necessarily be trusted,
       as the TEEP Agent may not be healthy (or at least up to date).
       In this case, the TAM might attempt to use TEEP to update any
       Trusted Components (e.g., firmware, the TEEP Agent itself, etc.)
       needed to get the TEEP Agent back into an up-to-date state that
       would allow attestation to succeed.  If the TAM does not have
       permission to update such components (this can happen if
       different TAMs manage different components in the device), the
       TAM instead responds with an Update message containing an
       appropriate err-msg, and err-code set to
       ERR_ATTESTATION_REQUIRED.

   2.  Attestation succeeded (so the QueryResponse information can be
       accepted as valid), but the set of Trusted Components needs to be
       updated based on TAM policy changes or requests from the TEEP
       Agent.

   3.  Attestation succeeded, and no changes are needed.

   If any Trusted Components need to be installed, updated, or deleted,
   the TAM sends an Update message containing SUIT Manifests with
   command sequences to do the relevant installs, updates, or deletes.
   It is important to note that the TEEP Agent's Update Procedure
   requires resolving and installing any dependencies indicated in the
   manifest, which may take some time, and the resulting Success or
   Error message is generated only after completing the Update
   Procedure.  Hence, depending on the freshness mechanism in use, the
   TAM may need to store data (e.g., a nonce) for some time.  For
   example, if a mobile device needs an unmetered connection to download
   a dependency, it may take hours or longer before the device has
   sufficient access.  A different freshness mechanism, such as
   timestamps, might be more appropriate in such cases.

   If no Trusted Components need to be installed, updated, or deleted,
   but the QueryResponse included Evidence, the TAM MAY (e.g., based on
   attestation-payload-format parameters received from the TEEP Agent in
   the QueryResponse) still send an Update message with no SUIT
   Manifests, to pass the Attestation Result back to the TEEP Agent.

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


7.1.2.  Handling a Success or Error Message

   If a Success or Error message is received containing one or more SUIT
   Reports, the TAM also validates that the nonce in any SUIT Report
   matches the token sent in the Update message, and drops the message
   if it does not match.  Otherwise, the TAM handles the update in any
   implementation specific way, such as updating any locally cached
   information about the state of the TEEP Agent, or logging the
   results.

   If an Error message is received with the error code
   ERR_ATTESTATION_REQUIRED, it indicates that the TEEP Agent is
   requesting attestation of the TAM.  In this case, the TAM MUST send
   another QueryRequest with an attestation-payload and optionally a
   suit-report to the TEEP Agent.

   If any other Error message is received, the TAM can handle it in any
   implementation specific way, but Section 4.6 provides recommendations
   for such handling.

7.2.  TEEP Agent Behavior

   When the RequestTA API is invoked, the TEEP Agent first checks
   whether the requested TA is already installed.  If it is already
   installed, the TEEP Agent passes no data back to the caller.
   Otherwise, if the TEEP Agent chooses to initiate the process of
   requesting the indicated TA, it determines (in any implementation
   specific way) the TAM URI based on any TAM URI provided by the
   RequestTA caller and any local configuration, and passes back the TAM
   URI to connect to.  It MAY also pass back a QueryResponse message if
   all of the following conditions are true:

   *  The last QueryRequest message received from that TAM contained no
      token or challenge,

   *  The ProcessError API was not invoked for that TAM since the last
      QueryResponse message was received from it, and

   *  The public key or certificate of the TAM is cached and not
      expired.

   When the RequestPolicyCheck API is invoked, the TEEP Agent decides
   whether to initiate communication with any trusted TAMs (e.g., it
   might choose to do so for a given TAM unless it detects that it has
   already communicated with that TAM recently).  If so, it passes back
   a TAM URI to connect to.  If the TEEP Agent has multiple TAMs it
   needs to connect with, it just passes back one, with the expectation
   that RequestPolicyCheck API will be invoked to retrieve each one



Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 37]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   successively until there are no more and it can pass back no data at
   that time.  Thus, once a TAM URI is returned, the TEEP Agent can
   remember that it has already initiated communication with that TAM.

   When the ProcessError API is invoked, the TEEP Agent can handle it in
   any implementation specific way, such as logging the error or using
   the information in future choices of TAM URI.

   When the ProcessTeepMessage API is invoked, the Agent first does
   validation as specified in Section 4.1.2, and if it is not valid then
   the Agent responds with an Error message.  Otherwise, processing
   continues as follows based on the type of message.

7.2.1.  Handling a QueryRequest Message

   When a QueryRequest message is received, it is processed as follows.

   If the TEEP Agent requires attesting the TAM and the QueryRequest
   message did not contain an attestation-payload, the TEEP Agent MUST
   send an Error Message with the error code ERR_ATTESTATION_REQUIRED
   supplying the supported-freshness-mechanisms and challenge if needed.
   Otherwise, processing continues as follows.

   If the TEEP Agent requires attesting the TAM and the QueryRequest
   message did contain an attestation-payload, the TEEP Agent checks
   whether it contains Evidence or an Attestation Result by inspecting
   the attestation-payload-format parameter.  The media type defined in
   Section 5 indicates an Attestation Result, though future extensions
   might also indicate other Attestation Result formats in the future.
   Any other unrecognized value indicates Evidence.  If it contains an
   Attestation Result, processing continues as in Section 7.2.1.1.

   If the QueryRequest is instead determined to contain Evidence, the
   TEEP Agent passes the Evidence (via some mechanism out of scope of
   this document) to an attestation Verifier (see [RFC9334]) to
   determine whether the TAM is in a trustworthy state.  Once the TEEP
   Agent receives an Attestation Result from the Verifier, processing
   continues as in Section 7.2.1.1.

   The TEEP Agent MAY also use (in any implementation specific way) any
   SUIT Reports in the QueryRequest in determining whether it trusts the
   TAM.  If a SUIT Report uses a suit-cose-profile that the TEEP Agent
   does not support, then the TEEP Agent MUST send an Error Message with
   the error code ERR_UNSUPPORTED_SUIT_REPORT supplying the supported-
   suit-cose-profiles.  Otherwise, processing continues as follows.

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   Once the Attestation Result is handled, or if the TEEP Agent does not
   require attesting the TAM, the Agent responds with a QueryResponse
   message if all fields were understood, or an Error message if any
   error was encountered.

7.2.1.1.  Handling an Attestation Result

   The Attestation Result must first be validated as follows:

   1.  Verify that the Attestation Result was signed by a Verifier that
       the TEEP Agent trusts.

   2.  Verify that the Attestation Result contains a "cnf" claim (as
       defined in Section 3.1 of [RFC8747]) where the key ID is the hash
       of the TAM public key used to verify the signature on the TEEP
       message, and the hash is computed using the Digest Algorithm
       specified by one of the SUIT profiles supported by the TEEP Agent
       (SHA-256 for the ones mandated in this document).

       See Sections 3.4 and 6 of [RFC8747] for more discussion.

7.2.2.  Handling an Update Message

   When an Update message is received, the Agent attempts to unlink any
   SUIT manifests listed in the unneeded-manifest-list field of the
   message, and responds with an Error message if any error was
   encountered.  If the unneeded-manifest-list was empty, or no error
   was encountered processing it, the Agent attempts to update the
   Trusted Components specified in the SUIT manifests by following the
   Update Procedure specified in [I-D.ietf-suit-manifest], and responds
   with a Success message if all SUIT manifests were successfully
   installed, or an Error message if any error was encountered.  It is
   important to note that the Update Procedure requires resolving and
   installing any dependencies indicated in the manifest, which may take
   some time, and the Success or Error message is generated only after
   completing the Update Procedure.

8.  Cipher Suites

   TEEP requires algorithms for various purposes:

   *  Algorithms for signing TEEP messages exchanged between the TEEP
      Agent and the TAM.

   *  Algorithms for signing EAT-based Evidence sent by the Attester via
      the TEEP Agent and the TAM to the Verifier.

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   *  Algorithms for encrypting EAT-based Evidence sent by the TEEP
      Agent to the TAM.  (The TAM will decrypt the encrypted Evidence
      and will forward it to the Verifier.)

   *  Algorithms for signing and optionally encrypting SUIT reports sent
      by the TEEP Agent to the TAM.

   *  Algorithms for signing and optionally encrypting SUIT manifests
      sent by the Trusted Component Signer to the TEEP Agent.

   Further details are provided for the protection of TEEP messages,
   SUIT Reports, and EATs.

8.1.  TEEP Messages

   The TEEP protocol uses COSE for protection of TEEP messages in both
   directions.  To negotiate cryptographic mechanisms and algorithms,
   the TEEP protocol defines the following cipher suite structure, which
   is used to specify an ordered set of operations (e.g., sign) done as
   part of composing a TEEP message.  Although this specification only
   specifies the use of signing and relies on payload encryption to
   protect sensitive information, future extensions might specify
   support for encryption and/or MAC operations if needed.

   ; teep-cipher-suites
   $teep-cipher-suite /= teep-cipher-suite-sign1-eddsa
   $teep-cipher-suite /= teep-cipher-suite-sign1-es256

   ;The following two cipher suites have only a single operation each.
   ;Other cipher suites may be defined to have multiple operations.
   ;It is MANDATORY for TAM to support them, and OPTIONAL
   ;to support any additional ones that use COSE_Sign_Tagged, or other
   ;signing, encryption, or MAC algorithms.

   teep-operation-sign1-eddsa = [ cose-sign1, cose-alg-eddsa ]
   teep-operation-sign1-es256 = [ cose-sign1, cose-alg-es256 ]

   teep-cipher-suite-sign1-eddsa = [ teep-operation-sign1-eddsa ]
   teep-cipher-suite-sign1-es256 = [ teep-operation-sign1-es256 ]

   ;MANDATORY for TAM and TEEP Agent to support the following COSE
   ;operations, and OPTIONAL to support additional ones such as
   ;COSE_Sign_Tagged, COSE_Encrypt0_Tagged, etc.

   cose-sign1 = 18      ; CoAP Content-Format value

   ;MANDATORY for TAM to support the following, and OPTIONAL to implement
   ;any additional algorithms from the IANA COSE Algorithms registry.

   cose-alg-es256 = -7  ; ECDSA w/ SHA-256
   cose-alg-eddsa = -8  ; EdDSA

   Each operation in a given cipher suite has two elements:

   *  a COSE-type defined in Section 2 of [RFC9052] that identifies the
      type of operation, and

   *  a specific cryptographic algorithm as defined in the COSE
      Algorithms registry [COSE.Algorithm] to be used to perform that
      operation.

   A TAM MUST support both of the cipher suites defined above.  A TEEP
   Agent MUST support at least one of the two but can choose which one.
   For example, a TEEP Agent might choose a given cipher suite if it has
   hardware support for it.  A TAM or TEEP Agent MAY also support any
   other algorithms in the COSE Algorithms registry in addition to the
   mandatory ones listed above.  It MAY also support use with COSE_Sign
   or other COSE types in additional cipher suites.

   Any cipher suites without confidentiality protection can only be
   added if the associated specification includes a discussion of
   security considerations and applicability, since manifests may carry



Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 41]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   sensitive information.  For example, Section 6 of [RFC9397] permits
   implementations that terminate transport security inside the TEE and
   if the transport security provides confidentiality then additional
   encryption might not be needed in the manifest for some use cases.
   For most use cases, however, manifest confidentiality will be needed
   to protect sensitive fields from the TAM as discussed in Section 9.8
   of [RFC9397].

   The cipher suites defined above do not do encryption at the TEEP
   layer, but permit encryption of the SUIT payload using a mechanism
   such as [I-D.ietf-suit-firmware-encryption].  See Section 10 and
   Section 8.2 for more discussion of specific payloads.

   For the initial QueryRequest message, unless the TAM has more
   specific knowledge about the TEEP Agent (e.g., if the QueryRequest is
   sent in response to some underlying transport message that contains a
   hint), the message does not use COSE_Sign1 with one of the above
   cipher suites, but instead uses COSE_Sign with multiple signatures,
   one for each algorithm used in any of the cipher suites listed in the
   supported-teep-cipher-suites parameter of the QueryRequest, so that a
   TEEP Agent supporting any one of them can verify a signature.  If the
   TAM does have specific knowledge about which cipher suite the TEEP
   Agent supports, it MAY instead use that cipher suite with the
   QueryRequest.

   For an Error message with code ERR_UNSUPPORTED_CIPHER_SUITES, the
   TEEP Agent MUST protect it with any of the cipher suites mandatory
   for the TAM.

   For all other TEEP messages between the TAM and TEEP Agent, the
   selected TEEP cipher suite MUST be used in both directions.

8.2.  EATs and SUIT Reports

   TEEP uses COSE for confidentiality of EATs and SUIT Reports sent by a
   TEEP Agent.  The TEEP Agent obtains a signed EAT and then SHOULD
   encrypt it using the TAM as the recipient.  A SUIT Report is created
   by a SUIT processor, which is part of the TEEP Agent itself.  The
   TEEP Agent is therefore in control of signing the SUIT Report and
   SHOULD encrypt it.  Again, the TAM is the recipient of the encrypted
   content.  For content-key distribution Ephemeral-Static Diffie-
   Hellman (ES-DH) is used in this specification.  See Section 8.5.5 and
   Appendix B of [RFC9052] for more details.  (If
   [I-D.ietf-suit-firmware-encryption] is used, it is also the same as
   discussed in Section 6.2 of that document.)






Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 42]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


   ES-DH is a scheme that provides public key encryption given a
   recipient's public key.  Hence, the TEEP Agent needs to be in
   possession of the public key of the TAM.  See Section 5 of [RFC9397]
   for more discussion of TAM keys used by the TEEP Agent.  There are
   multiple variants of this scheme; this document uses the variant
   specified in Section 8.5.5 of [RFC9052].

   The following two layer structure is used:

   *  Layer 0: Has a content encrypted with the Content Encryption Key
      (CEK), a symmetric key.  For encrypting SUIT Reports and EATs the
      content MUST NOT be detached.

   *  Layer 1: Uses the AES Key Wrap algorithm to encrypt the randomly
      generated CEK with the Key Encryption Key (KEK) derived with ES-
      DH, whereby the resulting symmetric key is fed into the HKDF-based
      key derivation function.

   As a result, the two layers combine ES-DH with AES-KW and HKDF.

   This document re-uses the CDDL defined in Section 6.2.3 of
   [I-D.ietf-suit-firmware-encryption] and the context information
   structure defined in Section 6.2.4 of
   [I-D.ietf-suit-firmware-encryption] although with an important
   modification.  The COSE_KDF_Context.SuppPubInfo.other value MUST be
   set to "SUIT Report Encryption" when a SUIT Report is encrypted and
   MUST be set to "EAT Encryption" when an EAT is encrypted.  The
   COSE_KDF_Context.SuppPubInfo.other field captures the protocol in
   which the ES-DH content key distribution algorithm is used.

   This specification defines cipher suites for confidentiality
   protection of EATs and SUIT Reports.  The TAM MUST support each
   cipher suite defined below, based on definitions in
   [I-D.ietf-suit-mti].  A TEEP Agent MUST support at least one of the
   cipher suites below but can choose which one.  For example, a TEEP
   Agent might choose a given cipher suite if it has hardware support
   for it.  A TAM or TEEP Agent MAY also support other algorithms in the
   COSE Algorithms registry.  It MAY also support use with COSE_Encrypt
   or other COSE types in additional cipher suites.

9.  Attestation Freshness Mechanisms

   A freshness mechanism determines how a TAM can tell whether an
   attestation payload provided in a QueryResponse is fresh.  There are
   multiple ways this can be done as discussed in Section 10 of
   [RFC9334].

   Each freshness mechanism is identified with an integer value, which
   corresponds to an IANA registered freshness mechanism (see the IANA
   Considerations section of
   [I-D.ietf-rats-reference-interaction-models]).  This document uses
   the following freshness mechanisms which may be added to in the
   future by TEEP extensions:

   ; freshness-mechanisms
   FRESHNESS_NONCE = 0
   FRESHNESS_TIMESTAMP = 1

   $freshness-mechanism /= FRESHNESS_NONCE
   $freshness-mechanism /= FRESHNESS_TIMESTAMP

   An implementation MUST support the Nonce mechanism and MAY support
   additional mechanisms.

   In the Nonce mechanism, the attestation payload MUST include a nonce
   provided in the QueryRequest challenge if the Background Check model
   is used, or in the QueryRequest token if the Passport model is used.
   The timestamp mechanism uses a timestamp determined via mechanisms
   outside the TEEP protocol, and the challenge is only needed in the
   QueryRequest message if a challenge is needed in generating the
   attestation payload for reasons other than freshness.

   If a TAM supports multiple freshness mechanisms that require
   different challenge formats, the QueryRequest message can currently
   only send one such challenge.  This situation is expected to be rare,
   but should it occur, the TAM can choose to prioritize one of them and
   exclude the other from the supported-freshness-mechanisms in the
   QueryRequest, and resend the QueryRequest with the other mechanism if
   an ERR_UNSUPPORTED_FRESHNESS_MECHANISMS Error is received that
   indicates the TEEP Agent supports the other mechanism.

10.  Security Considerations

   This section summarizes the security considerations discussed in this
   specification:

   Cryptographic Algorithms




Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 44]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


      TEEP protocol messages exchanged between the TAM and the TEEP
      Agent are protected using COSE.  This specification relies on the
      cryptographic algorithms provided by COSE.  Public key based
      authentication is used by the TEEP Agent to authenticate the TAM
      and vice versa.

   Attestation
      A TAM relies on signed Attestation Results provided by a Verifier,
      either obtained directly using a mechanism outside the TEEP
      protocol (by using some mechanism to pass Evidence obtained in the
      attestation payload of a QueryResponse, and getting back the
      Attestation Results), or indirectly via the TEEP Agent forwarding
      the Attestation Results in the attestation payload of a
      QueryResponse.  See the security considerations of the specific
      mechanism in use (e.g., EAT) for more discussion.

      An impersonation attack, where one TEEP Agent attempts to use the
      attestation payload of another TEEP Agent, can be prevented using
      a proof-of-possession approach.  The "cnf" claim is mandatory in
      the EAT profile for EAT for this purpose.  See Section 6 of
      [RFC8747] and Section 7.1.1.1 and Section 7.2.1.1 of this document
      for more discussion.

   Trusted Component Binaries
      Each Trusted Component binary is signed by a Trusted Component
      Signer.  It is the responsibility of the TAM to relay only
      verified Trusted Components from authorized Trusted Component
      Signers.  Delivery of a Trusted Component to the TEEP Agent is
      then the responsibility of the TAM, using the security mechanisms
      provided by the TEEP protocol.  To protect the Trusted Component
      binary, the SUIT manifest format is used and it offers a variety
      of security features, including digital signatures and content
      encryption, if a SUIT mechanism such as
      [I-D.ietf-suit-firmware-encryption] is used.

   Personalization Data
      A Trusted Component Signer or TAM can supply personalization data
      along with a Trusted Component.  This data is also protected by a
      SUIT manifest.  Personalization data is signed and encrypted by a
      Trusted Component Signer, if a SUIT mechanism such as
      [I-D.ietf-suit-firmware-encryption] is used.

   TEEP Broker
      As discussed in section 6 of [RFC9397], the TEEP protocol
      typically relies on a TEEP Broker to relay messages between the
      TAM and the TEEP Agent.  When the TEEP Broker is compromised it
      can drop messages, delay the delivery of messages, and replay
      messages but it cannot modify those messages.  (A replay would be,



Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 45]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


      however, detected by the TEEP Agent.)  A compromised TEEP Broker
      could reorder messages in an attempt to install an old version of
      a Trusted Component.  Information in the manifest ensures that
      TEEP Agents are protected against such downgrade attacks based on
      features offered by the manifest itself.

   Replay Protection
      The TEEP protocol supports replay protection as follows.  The
      transport protocol under the TEEP protocol might provide replay
      protection, but may be terminated in the TEEP Broker which is not
      trusted by the TEEP Agent and so the TEEP protocol does replay
      protection itself.  If attestation of the TAM is used, the
      attestation freshness mechanism provides replay protection for
      attested QueryRequest messages.  If non-attested QueryRequest
      messages are replayed, the TEEP Agent will generate QueryResponse
      or Error messages, but the REE can already conduct Denial of
      Service attacks against the TEE and/or the TAM even without the
      TEEP protocol.  QueryResponse messages have replay protection via
      attestation freshness mechanism, or the token field in the message
      if attestation is not used.  Update messages have replay
      protection via the suit-manifest-sequence-number (see
      Section 8.4.2 of [I-D.ietf-suit-manifest]).  Error and Success
      messages have replay protection via SUIT Reports and/or the token
      field in the message, where a TAM can detect which message it is
      in response to.

   Trusted Component Signer Compromise
      A TAM is responsible for vetting a Trusted Component and before
      distributing them to TEEP Agents.
      It is RECOMMENDED to provide a way to update the trust anchor
      store used by the TEE, for example using a firmware update
      mechanism such as [I-D.ietf-rats-concise-ta-stores].  Thus, if a
      Trusted Component Signer is later compromised, the TAM can update
      the trust anchor store used by the TEE, for example using a
      firmware update mechanism.

   CA Compromise
      The CA issuing certificates to a TEE or a Trusted Component Signer
      might get compromised.  It is RECOMMENDED to provide a way to
      update the trust anchor store used by the TEE, for example by
      using a firmware update mechanism, Concise TA Stores
      [I-D.ietf-rats-concise-ta-stores], Trust Anchor Management
      Protocol (TAMP) [RFC5934] or a similar mechanism.  If the CA
      issuing certificates to devices gets compromised then these
      devices will be rejected by a TAM, if revocation is available to
      the TAM.

   TAM Certificate Expiry



Tschofenig, et al.         Expires 9 May 2024                  [Page 46]

Internet-Draft                TEEP Protocol                November 2023


      The integrity and the accuracy of the clock within the TEE
      determines the ability to determine an expired TAM certificate, if
      certificates are used.

   Compromised Time Source
      As discussed above, certificate validity checks rely on comparing
      validity dates to the current time, which relies on having a
      trusted source of time, such as [RFC8915].  A compromised time
      source could thus be used to subvert such validity checks.

11.  Privacy Considerations

   Depending on the properties of the attestation mechanism, it is
   possible to uniquely identify a device based on information in the
   attestation payload or in the certificate used to sign the
   attestation payload.  This uniqueness may raise privacy concerns.  To
   lower the privacy implications the TEEP Agent MUST present its
   attestation payload only to an authenticated and authorized TAM and
   when using an EAT, it SHOULD use encryption as discussed in
   [I-D.ietf-rats-eat], since confidentiality is not provided by the
   TEEP protocol itself and the transport protocol under the TEEP
   protocol might be implemented outside of any TEE.  If any mechanism
   other than EAT is used, it is up to that mechanism to specify how
   privacy is provided.

   Since SUIT Reports can also contain sensitive information, a TEEP
   Agent SHOULD also encrypt SUIT Reports as discussed in Section 8.2.

   In addition, in the usage scenario discussed in Section 4.4.1, a
   device reveals its IP address to the Trusted Component Binary server.
   This can reveal to that server at least a clue as to its location,
   which might be sensitive information in some cases.

   EATs and SUIT Reports from a TAM can also be present in a
   QueryRequest.  Typically, the ability to uniquely identify a TAM is
   less of a concern than it is for TEEP Agents, but where
   confidentiality is a concern for the TAM, such EATs and SUIT Reports
   SHOULD be encrypted just like ones from TEEP Agents.

12.  IANA Considerations

A.  Contributors

   We would like to thank Brian Witten (Symantec), Tyler Kim (Solacia),
   Nick Cook (Arm), and Minho Yoo (IoTrust) for their contributions to
   the Open Trust Protocol (OTrP), which influenced the design of this
   specification.

B.  Acknowledgements

   We would like to thank Eve Schooler for the suggestion of the
   protocol name.

   We would like to thank Kohei Isobe (TRASIO/SECOM), Ken Takayama
   (SECOM), Kuniyasu Suzaki (TRASIO/AIST), Tsukasa Oi (TRASIO), and
   Yuichi Takita (SECOM) for their valuable implementation feedback.

   We would also like to thank Carsten Bormann and Henk Birkholz for
   their help with the CDDL.

C.  Complete CDDL

   in this example is the reference URI provided in the SUIT manifest.

   {
     / suit-report-manifest-digest / 1:<<[
       / algorithm-id / -16 / "sha256" /,
       / digest-bytes / h'a7fd6593eac32eb4be578278e6540c5c'
                        h'09cfd7d4d234973054833b2b93030609'
     ]>>,
     / suit-report-manifest-uri / 2: "tam.teep.example/personalisation",
     / suit-report-records / 4: []
   }

F.2.  Example 2: Faiure

{
  / suit-report-manifest-digest / 1:<<[
    / algorithm-id / -16 / "sha256" /,
