                draft-voit-rats-trusted-path-routing-02

Abstract

   There are end-users who believe encryption technologies like IPSec
   alone are insufficient to protect the confidentiality of their highly
   sensitive traffic flows.  These end-users want their flows to
   traverse devices which have been freshly appraised and verified.
   This specification describes Trusted Path Routing.  Trusted Path
   Routing protects sensitive flows as they transit a network by
   forwarding traffic to/from sensitive subnets across network devices
   recently appraised as trustworthy.

1.  Introduction

   There are end-users who believe encryption technologies like IPSec
   alone are insufficient to protect the confidentiality of their highly
   sensitive traffic flows.  These customers want their highly sensitive
   flows to be transported over only network devices recently verified
   as trustworthy.

   With the inclusion of TPM based cryptoprocessors into network
   devices, it is now possible for network providers to identify
   potentially compromised devices as well as potentially exploitable
   (or even exploited) vulnerabilities.  Using this knowledge, it then
   becomes possible to redirect sensitive flows around these devices.

   Trusted Path Routing (TPR) provides a method of establishing Trusted
   Topologies which only include trust-verified network devices.  This
   specification describes a distributed variant of TPR.  With this
   variant, membership in a Trusted Topology is established and
   maintained via an exchange of Stamped Passports at the link layer
   between peering network devices.  As links to Attesting Devices are
   appraised as meeting at least a minimum set of formally defined
   Trustworthiness Levels, the links are then included as members of

   this Trusted Topology.  [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo] is then used to
   propogate topology state throughout an IGP domain.  IP Packets to and
   from end-user designated Sensitive Subnets are then forwarded into
   this Trusted Topology at each IGP boundary.

   The specification works under the following assumptions:

   1.  All network devices supports the TPM remote attestation profile
       as laid out in [RATS-Device]

   2.  A [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo] topology spans network devices within
       an IGP domain.

   3.  One or more Verifiers continuously appraise the set of network
       devices in the IGP domain, and the Verifiers canse return the
       Attestation Results back to the attesting network device.

   4.  802.1x or MACSEC is used to communicate EAP credentials
       containing a Stamped Passport between network peers.

   Beyond the distributed variant of TPR, there is another method to
   accomplish Trusted Path Routing.  A controller-based TPR variant is
   described in the appendicies.

2.  Terminology

2.1.  Terms

   The following terms are imported from [RATS-Arch]: Attester,
   Evidence, Passport, Relying Party, and Verifier.

   The following terms at imported from [RFC8639]: Event Stream.

   Newly defined terms for this document:

   Attested Device -  a device where a Verifier's most recent appraisal
      of Evidence has returned a Trustworthiness Vector.

   Stamped Passport -  a bundle of Evidence which includes at least
      signed Attestation Results from a Verifier, and two independent
      TPM quotes from an Attester.

   Sensitive Subnet -  an IP address range where IP packets to or from
      that range must only have their IP headers and encapsulated
      payloads accessible/visible only by Attested Devices.

Internet-Draft                 trust-path                      June 2020


   Transparently-Transited Device -  a network device within an IGP
      domain where any packets passed into that IGP domain are
      completely opaque at Layer 3 and above.

   Trusted Topology -  A topology which includes only Attested Devices
      and Transparently-Transited Devices.

   Trustworthiness Level -  a specific quanta of trustworthiness which
      can be assigned by a Verifier.

   Trustworthiness Vector -  a set of Trustworthiness Levels assigned
      during a single assessment cycle by a Verfier using Evidence and
      Claims related to an Attested Device.  The vector is included
      within Attestation Results.

2.2.  Requirements Notation

   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.

3.  Distributed Trusted Path Routing

3.1.  Trusted Topology

   To be included in a Trusted Topology, a Stamped Passport Section 3.3
   is assembled by an Attested Device.  This Stamped Passport will
   include the most recent Verifier provided Trustworthiness Vector
   Section 3.2 for that Attested Device.  Upon receiving and appraising
   this Stamped Passport as part of link layer authentication, the
   Relying Party decides if this link should be added to a Trusted
   Topology.

   When enough links on enough Relying Parties have been so appraised, a
   Trusted Topology will now exist within an IGP domain.  And traffic
   exchanged with Sensitive Subnets can be forwarded into that Trusted
   Topology from all edges of an IGP domain.

   More that one Trustworthiness Level may be contained within Appraisal

   the Attestation Results.  The establishment of this Vector follows
   the following logic on the Verifier.

3.3.  Stamped Passport

   Critical to the establishment and maintenance of a Trusted Topology
   is the Stamped Passport.  Such passports are continuously exchanged
   between peering network devices over a link layer protocol like
   802.1x.  Section 3.3 provides a protocol independent process for
   Stamped Passport generation and evaluation.  Section 3.4 later in the
   document binds the Stamped Passport to specific link layer protocols,
   YANG models, and authentication methods.

   The composite nature of the Stamped Passport exposes multiple
   dimensions of an attesting router's security posture to a network
   peer.  Specifically, using capabilities defined within [RATS-YANG]

   and [stream-subscription], the following can be established about the
   Attester:

   o  its hardware-based identity,

   o  the Trustworthiness Vector according to its most recent Verifier
      appraisal,

   o  the amount of time which has passed since the Attester has been
      assigned the Trustworthiness Vector, and

   o  if the PCRs haven't changed, the Attester's current
      Trustworthiness Vector

   With this information, the Relying Party peer can make nuanced
   decisions.  For example, when the Attester's legitimate hardware
   identity credentials can be verified, it might choose to accept link
   layer connections and forward generic Internet traffic.
   Additionally, if the Attester's Trustworthiness Vector is acceptable
   to the Relying Party, and it hasn't been too long since the Verifier
   has provided a passport, the Relying Party can include that link in a
   Trusted Topology.

   As the process described above repeats across the set of links within
   the IGP domain, Trusted Topologies can be extended and maintained.
   Traffic to and from Sensitive Subnets is then identified at the edges
   of the IGP domain and passed into this Trusted Topology.

   The prerequisites for this solution to work are:

   o  Customer designated Sensitive Subnets and their requested
      Trustworthiness Vectors have been identified and associated with
      external interfaces to/from the edge of an IGP domain.

   o  A Trusted Topology such as one established by
      [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo] exists in an IGP domain for the
      forwarding of Sensitive Subnet traffic.  This Topology will carry
      traffic across a set of devices which currently meet at least
      minimum Trustworthiness Vectors.

   o  Verifiers A and B (in the figure below) are able to verify
      [TPM1.2] or [TPM2.0] signatures of an Attester.

   o  Verifier A can establish the Trustworthiness Vector of an Attester
      and return a signed result to that Attester.

   o  An Attester can assemble a Stamped Passport for Verifier B.

   o  Verifier B trusts the Attestation Results and can verify
      signatures made by Verifier A.

   o  Within an IGP domain, a Relying Party is able to use affinity to
      include/exclude links as part of the Trusted Topology based on
      this appraisal.

   o  Traffic to a Sensitive Subnet can be passed into the Trusted
      Topology.

            Figure 2: Stamped Passport Generation and Appraisal

   In Figure 2 above, Evidence from a TPM1.2 or TPM2.0 is generated and
   signed by that TPM.  This Evidence is appraised by Verifier A, and
   the Attester is given a Trustworthiness Vector which is signed and
   returned as Attestation Results to the Attester.  Later, when a
   request comes in from a Relying Party, the Attester assembles and
   returns three independently signed elements of Evidence.  These three
   comprise the Stamped Passport which when taken together allow
   Verifier B to appraise and set the current Trustworthiness Vector of
   the Attester.

   More details on the mechanisms used in the construction and
   verification of the Stamped Passport match to the numbered steps of
   Figure 2:

   1.  An Attester sends a signed TPM Quote which includes PCR
       measurements to Verifier A at time(x).

   2.  Verifier A appraises (1), then sends the following items back to
       that Attester as Attestation Results:

       1.  the Trustworthiness Vector of an Attester,

Internet-Draft                 trust-path                      June 2020


       2.  the signature from the TPM Quote of (1),

       3.  a Verifier signature across (2.1) and (2.2).

   3.  A nonce known to the Relying Party is received by the Attester at
       time(y).

   4.  The Attester generates and sends a Stamped Passport.  This
       passport includes:

       1.  (1)

       2.  (2)

       3.  New signed, verifiably fresh PCR measurements at time(y),
           which incorporates the nonce from (3).

   5.  On receipt of (4), the Relying Party makes its determination of
       how the Stamped Passport will impact adjacencies within a Trusted
       Topology.  The decision process is:

       1.  Verify that (4.3) includes the nonce from (3).

       2.  Verify the TPM signature within (4.2) matches the signature
           of (4.1).

       3.  Validate the signatures of (4.1), (4.2), (4.3).

       4.  Failure of (5.1), (5.2), or (5.3) means the link does not
           meet minimum criteria, appraise the link as having a null
           Trustworthiness Vector, and additionally jump to step (5.8).

       5.  If selected PCR values of (1) match (4.3), then Relying Party
           can accept (2.1) as the link's Trustworthiness Vector.

       6.  When the PCR values are different, and not much time has
           passed between time(x) and time(y), the Relying Party can
           either accept any previous Trustworthiness Vector, or attempt
           to acquire a new Stamped Passport.  Where
           [stream-subscription] is used, it should only be a few
           seconds before a new Attestation Results should be delivered
           to an Attester via (2).

               that Trustworthiness Vector.

3.4.  Passport Protocol Bindings

   This section provides details of how a Stamped Passport described in
   Section 3.3 interacts with link layer protocols like [MACSEC] or
   [IEEE-802.1X], YANG subscriptions [RFC8639], and [RFC3748] methods.
   Additional linkages to the YANG module defined in Section 3.5 are
   described.

   Figure 3 above expands upon the previously described Figure 2.  The
   numbering in both figures is the same.

   Step (1)

   Verifier A acquires Evidence including a TPM Quote from the attester
   via [RATS-YANG] and/or [stream-subscription].

   Step (2)

   As the Evidence changes, Verifier A evaluates the totality of the
   Evidence received.  Verifier A then sets the Trustworthiness Vector
   of the Attester.  Subsequently it sends back a signed Attestation
   Result which includes the Trustworthiness Vector and the signature
   sent as part of (1) from the Attester.  It is this signature which

   allows the Trustworthiness Vector to be later provably associated
   with a recent TPM Quote.

   The delivery of Attestation Results back to the Attester can be done
   via a YANG operational datastore write of the following objects:

     +--rw attestation-results! {passport}?
        +--rw trustworthiness-vector*        identityref
        +--rw timestamp                      yang:date-and-time
        +--rw tpmt-signature?                binary
        +--rw verifier-signature?            binary
        +--rw verifier-signature-key-name?   binary

                    Figure 4: Attestation Results Tree

   Step (3)

   At time(y) a Relying Party makes a Link Layer connection request to
   an Attester via a protocol such as [MACSEC] or [IEEE-802.1X].  This
   connection request must include [RFC3748] credentials.  Specifics of
   the EAP credentials are TBD.  If there is no central distribution of
   time via [I-D.birkholz-rats-tuda] a nonce must be included to ensure
   freshness of a response.

   This step can repeat periodically independently of any subsequent
   iteration (1) and (2).  This allows for periodic reauthentication of
   the link layer in a way not bound to the updating of Verifier A's
   Attestation Results.

   Step (4)

   Upon receipt of (3), a Stamped Passport is generated as per
   Section 3.3, and sent to the Relying Party.

   Step (5)

   Upon receipt of (4), the Relying Party verifies the Stamped Passport
   as per Section 3.3.  Most often, the relevant PCR values at time(x)
   will be the same as the PCR values at time(y).  In this case, the
   Relying Party can simply accept the Trustworthiness Vector assigned
   by the Verifier A.  When the PCR values are different, and not much
   time has passed between time(x) and time(y), the Relying Party can
   either accept the previous Trustworthiness Vector, or attempt another
   EAP request in a few seconds as new Attestation Results are delivered
   by Step (2).  When there is a large time gap between time(x) and
   time(y) and the PCR values are different, the Attester should be
   given a blank Trustworthiness Vector.

   Based on the link's Trustworthiness Vector, the Relying Party may
   adjust the link affinity of the corresponding
   [I-D.ietf-lsr-flex-algo] topology.

4.  Security Considerations

   Successful attacks on an IGP domain Verifier has the potential of
   affecting traffic on the Trusted Topology.

   For Distributed Trusted Path Routing, links which are part of the
   FlexAlgo are visible across the entire IGP domain.  Therefore a
   compromised device will know when it is being bypassed.

   Access control for the objects in Figure 4 should be tightly
   controlled so that it becomes difficult for the Stamped Passport to
   become a denial of service vector.

Appendix A.  Centralized Trusted Path Routing

   Trusted Path Routing does not require integration with Routing
   protocols as is done with Distributed Trusted Path Routing.  It is
   also possible for a Controller to choose a path through a network.
   This architural alternative is called Centralized Trusted Path
   Routing.

   With Centralized Trusted Path Routing, trusted end-to-end paths are
   pre-assigned through a network provider domain.  Along these paths,
   Evidence of potentially transited components has been assessed.  Each
   path is guaranteed to only include devices which achieve at least a
   minimum set of a formally defined Trustworthiness Levels.



Voit                    Expires December 12, 2020              [Page 18]

Internet-Draft                 trust-path                      June 2020


   In this alternative, a controller-based Verifier ensures
   communications with Sensitive Subnets traverses a Trusted Topology
   within the controller's routing domain.  To do this, the Verifier
   continuously acquires Evidence about each potentially transited
   device.  This access is done via the context established within
   [RATS-Device].  The controller then appraises the Evidence and
   decides on a Trustworthiness Vector for each device.  The controller
   then identifies end-to-end path(s) which avoid any devices which are
   unable to meet the minimum Trustworthiness Levels.  Finally, the
   controller provisions network policy so that flows to and from
   Sensitive Subnet to use just these end-to-end paths.

   Evidence passed to the Verifier which are used to establish a
   device's Trustworthiness Vector will include but is not limited to:

   o  An Attester's security measurements being extended into [TPM1.2]
      or [TPM2.0] compliant Platform Configuration Registers (PCR).

   o  An Attester's current PCR measurements.

   The prerequisites for this solution are:

   1.  Customer designated Sensitive Subnet ranges and their acceptable
       Trustworthiness Vectors have been identified and associated with
       external interfaces to/from the edge of a routing domain.

   2.  A Verifier which can continuously acquire Evidence and appraise
       the Trustworthiness Levels of all network devices within the
       routing domain.

   3.  A Verifier which continuously optimizes a set of network paths/
       tunnels.  These paths must traverse only Attested Devices or
       Transparently-Transited Devices while on their way to an egress
       interface for a routing Domain.

   4.  A Verifier which can provision and maintain the set of Sensitive
       Subnets associated with specific network paths/tunnels.

   Figure 5 provides a network diagram of where these four sit within a
   network topology.

   The feature functionality describing how to achieve (1) - (4) are
   outside the scope of this specification.  The reasoning is that each
   of these can be accomplished via technologies specified elsewhere.
   For example, in step (4), it is possible for a Verifier to provision
   each ingress device with the set of Sensitive Subnets for which
   traffic would be placed into a specific
   [I-D.ietf-idr-segment-routing-te-policy] tunnel.  As another example,
   consider prerequisite (2): network devices can stream changes in
   Evidence to a Verifier by establishing an [RFC8639] subscription to
   the <attestation> Event Stream as described in [stream-subscription].

   Do we need functional requirements on how to handle traffic to/from
   Sensitive Subnets when no Trusted Topology exists between IGP edges?
   The network typically can make this unnecessary.  For example it is
   possible to construct a local IPSec tunnel to make untrusted devices
   appear as Transparently-Transited Devices.  This way Secure Subnets
   could be tunneled between FlexAlgo nodes where an end-to-end path
   doesn't currently exist.  However there still is a corner case where
   all IGP egress points are not considered sufficiently trustworthy.
