Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 3] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 2. Introduction SEcure Neighbor Discovery [RFC3971] (SEND) utilizes X.509v3 certificates that include the [RFC3779] extension for IPv6 addresses to certify a router's authorization to advertise IPv6 prefix for the Neighbor Discovery (ND) Protocol. The SEND specification defines a basic certificate profile for SEND. The certificate profile defined in this document supersedes the profile for router certificates specified in [RFC3971]. That is, certificates used in SEND (by routers, proxies, or address owners) MUST conform to this certificate profile and MAY conform to the original profile in [RFC3971]. The Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) is the global PKI that attests to the allocation of IP address space. The RPKI represents the centralized model referred in Section 6.2 of [RFC3971]. Consequently, SEND will use the RPKI certificate profile and certificate validation detailed in [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]. A consequence of the use of RPKI certificate profile, the certificate validation method described in RFC3971 is updated with the certificate validation method in [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]. Since the RFC 3779 IPv6 addresses extension does not mention what functions the node can perform for the certified IPv6 space, it becomes impossible to know the reason for which the certificate was issued. In order to facilitate issuance of certificates for specific functions, it is necessary to utilize the ExtKeyUsageSyntax field (optional in RPKI Certificates) of the X.509 certificate to mention the purpose why the certificate was issued. This document specifies four extended key usage values, one for routers, two for proxies, and one for address owners, for use with SEND. In RFC 3971 two deployment models were described: centralized and decentralized. This document describes the different deployment models that can be used with the SEND certificates defined here.

Terminology Certified IPv6 address space IPv6 address space included in an X.509v3 certificate using RFC 3779 extension for IPv6 addresses. End Entity (EE) An entity in the PKI that is not a CA. ETA External Trust Anchor as defined in [I-D.ietf-sidr-ta]. ISP Internet Service Provider. NIR National Internet Registry. RIR Regional Internet Registry. RPKI Resource PKI established in accordance with [I-D.ietf-sidr-arch]. RPKI certificates Certificates defined in [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]. RTA RPKI Trust Anchor as defined in [I-D.ietf-sidr-ta]. SEND certificates Certificates described in [RFC3971] and extended in this document. They are end- entity certificates that belong either to SEND routers, SEND hosts or SEND Proxies: * Router Authorization Certificates defined in [RFC3971]. * Owner Authorization Certificates defined in [RFC3971]. * Secure Proxy ND Certificates defined in [I-D.ietf-csi-proxy-send]. SEND KeyPurposeId An Extended Key Usage (EKU) value for SEND, such as the four introduced in this document. Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 5] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 4. SEND Certificate profile SEND certificates MUST comply with the RPKI resource profile [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]. A Router Authorization Certificate example is included in the Appendix A. In sections 2, 4.9.10 and 4.9.11 [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs] it is stated that RFC 3779 resource extensions MUST be critical and MUST be present in all Resource Certificates. SEND certificates MUST include the IP Resources extension [RFC3779]. This extension MUST include at least one address block for the IPv6 Address Family (AFI=0002), as described in Section 4.9.10 of [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]. SEND certificates MUST NOT have more than one IP Resources extension. 4.1. Unconstrained Certified subnet prefixes Section 7.3 of [RFC3971] defines the Unconstrained Certified subnet prefixes category by using certificates containing either the null prefix or no prefix extension at all. When using RPKI certificate profile, prefix extensions are mandatory and the null prefix MUST be validated. However, a certificate may inherit its parent's prefix or range by using the "inherit" element for IPv6 AFI as defined in RFC3779. The use of the "inherit" element is permited in [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]. Consequently, this document updates section 7.3 of RFC 3971 adding the following text under Unconstrained: Network operators that do not want to constrain routers to route particular subnet prefixes but rather inherit them from its parent certificate, should configure routers with certificates containing the "inherit" element for IPv6 AFI. Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 6] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 5. Deployment Models RFC 3971 describes two deployment models:centralized and decentralized. These models were differentiated by having one or many trust anchor. In this document we introduce two new deployment models, not based on the number of trust anchors but on the localization of the SEND deployment. The local SEND deployment model represent those cases where SEND deployment is confined to an administrative domain. In this scenario, the deployment of SEND MAY be done independently of the existence of deployment in the upper RPKI hierarchy (i.e. an end user could perform local SEND deployment without the need of RPKI deployment in its ISP). This model requires the use of local trust anchors and configuring islands of trust. This model MAY include Unique Local Addresses(ULAs) [RFC4193]. The public SEND deployment models represent those cases where SEND deployment is linked to RPKI deployment as described in [I-D.ietf-sidr-arch]. Trust anchor material MAY be part of a different administrative domain (i.e. RIR, NIR or ISPs). It is a global model suitable for mobile users. These two models are not mutually exclusive. It is entirely possible to have a hybrid model that incorporates features from both these models. In one such hybrid deployment model most IP address resources (e.g. global unicast addresses) would be certified under the global RPKI, while some others (e.g., ULAs) are certified under local TAs. Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 7] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 6. Trust Anchor Material Relying parties (e.g., end hosts that implement SEND and process these router certificates) MUST be configured with one or more trust anchors to enable validation of the routers' certificates. Section 6.5 of RFC 3971 and [I-D.ietf-csi-send-name-type-registry] list the trust anchor configuration options for end hosts using SEND. In the local SEND deployment model, it is possible to use as trust anchor a certificate that includes in its RFC 3779 address extension the prefix ::/0. In this case no new trust anchor material would be needed when renumbering. However, if trying to move from the local deployment model to the public deployment model, new trust anchor material will have to be distributed to relying parties. Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 8] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 7. Extended Key Usage Values The Internet PKI document [RFC5280] specifies the extended key usage X.509 certificate extension. The extension indicates one or more purposes for which the certified public key may be used. The extended key usage extension can be used in conjunction with key usage extension, which indicates the intended purpose of the certified public key. The EKU extension is defined as optional in [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs] for end entity certificates but MUST be present when issuing end entity certificates for SEND. The extended key usage extension syntax is repeated here for convenience: ExtKeyUsageSyntax ::= SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF KeyPurposeId KeyPurposeId ::= OBJECT IDENTIFIER This specification defines four KeyPurposeId values: one for authorizing routers (Router Authorization Certificates), two for authorizing proxies (Secure Proxy ND Certificates), and one for address owners (Owner Authorization Certificates). Additional KeyPurposeId values may be specified in standard track documents. The inclusion of the router authorization value (id-kp-sendRouter) indicates that the certificate has been issued for allowing the router to generate RA and Redirect messages for any prefix(es) encompassed (as defined in Section 7.1 of [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]) by the IP address space included in the X.509 extensions for IP addresses. The inclusion of the proxied routing authorization value (id-kp- sendProxiedRouter) indicates that the certificate has been issued for allowing the proxy to perform proxying of RA and Redirect messages for any prefix(es) encompassed by the IP address space included in the X.509 extensions for IP addresses. The inclusion of the proxied owner authorization value (id-kp- sendProxiedOwner) indicates that the certificate has been issued for allowing the proxy to perform proxying of NS, NA and RS messages for any address encompassed by the IP address space included in the X.509 extensions for IP addresses. The inclusion of the owner authorization value (id-kp-sendOwner) indicates that the certificate has been issued for allowing the node to use any address(es) that is/are encompassed by the IP address space included in the X.509 extensions for IP addresses. For an address in such certificate the node can assign the address to an Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 9] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 interface, send/receive traffic from/to this address, and can send/ respond NS, NA and RS messages about that address. send-kp OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { iso(1) identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1) security(5) mechanisms(5) pkix(7) kp(3) } id-kp-sendRouter OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-kp 23 } id-kp-sendProxiedRouter OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-kp 24 } id-kp-sendOwner OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-kp 25 } id-kp-sendProxiedOwner OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-kp 26 } As described in [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs], the extended key usage extension, if present, MUST be non-critical. Relying Parties MUST require the extended key usage extension to be present in a certificate, and they MAY require a particular KeyPurposeId value to be present (such as id-kp-sendRouter or sendProxiedRouter) within the extended key usage extension. If multiple KeyPurposeId values are included, the relying parties need not recognize all of them, as long as the required KeyPurposeId value is present.Relying parties MUST reject certificates that do not contain at least one SEND KeyPurposeId even if they include the anyExtendedKeyUsage OID defined in [RFC5280]. Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 10] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 8. CRL profile and revocation RPKI requires the use of CRLs [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs].The host will obtain the necessary CRLs and perform the certificate validation method described in [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]. 8.1. Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) Considerations A host MAY use OCSP [RFC2560] protocol to verify the revocation status of a certificate. By adopting the [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs] as the certificate profile for SEND, the host SHOULD NOT assume that certificates will include the URI of an OCSP server as part of its Authority Information Access (AIA) extension. This is particularly evident in the SEND public deployment model as OCSP services are not required by [I-D.ietf-sidr-cp]. Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 11] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 9. Certificate validation This section updates section 6.3.1 of [RFC3971] by introducing new validations without introducing any conflict. The host MUST perform the certificate validation method described in [I-D.ietf-sidr-res-certs]. The validation of certificates that uses the "inherit" element is describe in RFC 3779 where the existence of a parent prefix or range is required. The host MUST verify that the Key PurposedId value corresponding to the Neighbor Discovery message type is present as described in Section 7. Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 12] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 10. IANA Considerations This document makes use of object identifiers to identify EKUs and the ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) module found in Appendix B. The EKUs and ASN.1 module OID are registered in an arc delegated by IANA to the PKIX Working Group. No further action by IANA is necessary for this document. Gagliano, et al. Expires May 28, 2011 [Page 13] Internet-Draft SEND certificate profile and management November 2010 11. Security Considerations The certification authority needs to ensure that the correct values for the extended key usage are inserted in each certificate that is issued. Relying parties may accept or reject a particular certificate for an intended use based on the information provided in these extensions. Incorrect representation of the information in the extended key usage field can cause the relying party to reject an otherwise appropriate certificate or accept a certificate that ought to be rejected. In particular, since a SEND certificate attests that its subject is authorized to play a given role in the SEND protocol, certificates that contain incorrect EKU values can enable some of the same attacks that SEND was meant to prevent. For example, if a malicious host can obtain a certificate that authorizes it to act as a router for a given prefix, then it can masquerade as a router for that prefix, e.g., in order to attract traffic from local nodes.
