INTAREA R. Moskowitz Internet-Draft HTT Consulting Intended status: Informational S. Card Expires: 17 September 2025 AX Enterprize, LLC 16 March 2025 The DRIP DET public Key Infrastructure draft-ietf-drip-dki-05 Abstract The DRIP Entity Tag (DET) public Key Infrastructure (DKI) is a specific variant of classic Public Key Infrastructures (PKI) where the organization is around the DET, in place of X.520 Distinguished Names. Further, the DKI uses DRIP Endorsements in place of X.509 certificates for establishing trust within the DKI. There are two X.509 profiles for shadow PKI behind the DKI, with many of their X.509 fields mirroring content in the DRIP Endorsements. These PKIs can at times be used where X.509 is expected and non- constrained communication links are available that can handle their larger size. It is recommended that a DRIP deployment implement both of these along side the Endorsement trees. C509 (CBOR) encoding of all X.509 certificates are also provided as an alternative for where there are gains in reduced object size. Author's note: This draft is a partial update of all the additions needed for the PKIX-like PKI to be ICAO ACCP compliant.

Introduction A DRIP Entity Tag (DET, [RFC9374]) public Key Infrastructure (DKI) is designed as a strict hierarchy, governed by the administrator of the DET prefix [IPv6-SPECIAL] and having the authority to authorize RAAs. RAAs in turn authorize HDAs within their domain. This authorization is managed via a set of DETs whose sole use is to define the DKI. The RAA Authorization DETs MUST reside in HID = RAA#|0 (Apex Authorization DET in HID = 0|0). There are three main classifications/types of DETs: Authorization DETs Used to assert the authorization of a DKI level. Issuing DETs Used to assert operations within DKI level. Operational DETs Used by operational entities within DKI level All DETs exist in DET-Endorsements (Appendix B of [drip-registries]). These DET-Endorsements provide the proof of registration and thus trust. These DETs, through chained Endorsements define the DKI as follows: +----------+ | Auth | +-o------o-+ | | | +-o-----+ Apex | +--o----+| | | Issue |+ | +---o---+ | | | +-o-----+ | +--o----+| | |CRL,Srv|+ | +-------+ | ******************|************************************ +-o--------+ +-o--------+| | Auth |+ +--o-----o-+ | | | +-o-----+ RAAs | +--o----+| Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 4] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 | | Issue |+ | +---o---+ | | | +-o--------+ | +--o-------+| | | CRL,Srv || | |Oper,Pilot|+ | +----------+ | ******************|************************************ +-o--------+ +-o--------+| | Auth |+ +----o-----+ | +-o-------+ HDAs +--o------+| | Issue |+ +---o-----+ | | | +-o--------+ | +--o-------+| | | CRL,Srv || | |Oper,Pilot|| | | UAS |+ | +----------+ ******************************************************* Figure 1: The DKI Endorsements The Authorization DETs exist in a set of DET-Authorization- Endorsements. The lifetime of these endorsements SHOULD be no less than 1 year, recommended 5 years, and should not exceed 10 years. Endorsements SHOULD be reissued prior to expiry (may be for a new DET). DETs used to define this authorization are replaced per undetermined policy (note these DETs do very little signing, see Section 8.1). This separation of DET type roles reduce the risk of private key loss for the critical Authentication DETs by making them infrequently used and only used in offline operations. It does make the chain of trust for a HDA customers' Operational DETs to be 4 Endorsements. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 5] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 1.1. The DKI without an Apex Entity The hierarchical design of the DKI is the most efficient possible with the least data transmission overhead. But it requires the participation of an Entity, in the role of the Apex, trusted by all the RAAs. The logical Entity for this role is the International Civil Aviation Authority (ICAO), but the processes for ICAO to take on this role are complex. Work is ongoing with the ICAO, but timing is indeterminate and immediately implementable alternatives are needed. The DKI can work by the RAAs establishing mutual trust within a geographic region. It is envisioned that the initial RAA assignments will follow Section 6.2.1 of [drip-registries], Table 1. Without an Apex, each RAA self-endorses its Authentication DET, acting as its own apex. However, RAAs issued DETs (via their HDAs) will not exist in the air by themselves (except perhaps for some small island nations), thus a geographic regional consortium of RAAs will need to deploy some mechanism for mutual trust for their End Entities to fly together. There are three reasonable approaches for RAAs to manage their mutual trust and it is likely that all will occur: 1. RAA Trust lists 2. RAA Cross-endorsements 3. Bridge RAA with cross-endorsements to RAAs It is recommended that the RAA Trust List be used during initial DKI testing. The cross-endorsing options will need their own testing to work out how best to deploy them. 1.1.1. RAA Trust lists A consortium of RAAs MAY choose to maintain a list of RAAs they trust. It is recommended that this list consist of the RAA's Authentication DET and HI. Each RAA in the consortium SHOULD maintain its own list, signed with its Authentication DET. This Trust List MAY contain each RAA's Authentication DET self- endorsement validity dates. If a trusted RAA has more than one self- endorsement (most likely to support key rollover), including these dates makes it easier to have an RAA duplicated in the list. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 6] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 How the RAAs communicate between themselves to maintain these lists is out of scope here. Each RAA SHOULD include validity dates in its Trust List. Frequency of Trust List updates is also out of scope here. Trust Lists is the simplest method to implement, but may not be the simplest to maintain over time. There is a natural Trust List of ALL RAAs, based on what is allocated in the DRIP DNS tree. 1.1.2. RAA Cross-endorsements A consortium of RAAs MAY choose to cross-endorse each's Authentication DET. This is done by one RAA endorsing for its community, an other's Authentication DET. This establishes one-way trust; thus, in practice, each RAA needs to cross-endorse each RAA's Authentication DET within the consortium. RAA Cross-endorsements definitely has a scaling (n^2) problem. It works for a starting point or for a very small group of RAAs. How these RAA Cross-endorsements are discovered has not been defined at this point. One potential is via a to-be-defined DNS HHIT RR within the endorsing RAA's zone. This information would need to be cached by any potential offline entity. 1.1.3. Bridge RAA with cross-endorsements to RAAs A consortium of RAAs MAY select one RAA to function as a "Bridge" between all members of the consortium. In this approach, the "Bridge RAA" does not authorize any sub-HDAs. Its sole purpose is the cross- endorse to member RAAs. The Bridge and each RAA cross endorse as in Section 1.1.2. Bridge RAA Cross-endorsementing reduces the scaling challenge to only the number of RAAs in the consortium. Plus there is little need to communicate any changes in the cross-endorsementing to the various parties within the consortium. Thus this option scales the best out of the three alternatives to DKI Apex hierarchy. How these RAA Cross-endorsements are discovered has not been defined at this point. The Bridge RAA will have to be known to all parties within the consortium. One potential, as above, is via a to-be- defined DNS HHIT RR (Appendix A of [drip-registries]) within the endorsing RAA's zone. This information would need to be cached by any potential offline entity. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 7] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 1.2. Value add to DKI in X.509 Certificates The Drip Architecture [RFC9434] does not use or need X.509 certificates or the associated Certificate Authories. However, there is considerable value for the Apex, RAAs, and HDAs to deploy the CAs described herein. Of considerable note is the inclusion of the ICAO Level of Assurance (LOA) policy OIDs, Section 6.1, that inform trust behind the DRIP Endorsement tree and the associated CAs. A signing entity MUST follow the same LOA for all 3 objects: Endorsements, DRIP-Lite, and DRIP-PKIX certificates. There may be other UAS applications that will just work with X.509 certificates, but would have to be customized to use DIRP Endorsements. 1.3. The C509 encoding of X.509 Certificates A price in object size is paid in the ASN.1 encoding of X.509 certificates. This is often a barrier for use over constrained links and even storage demands on constrained processing platforms. The [C509-Certificates] provides an alternative encoding in two different manners: 1. An invertible CBOR re-encoding of DER encoded X.509 certificates [RFC5280], which can be reversed to obtain the original DER encoded X.509 certificate. 2. Natively signed C509 certificates, where the signature is calculated over the CBOR encoding instead of over the DER encoding as in 1. This removes the need for ASN.1 and DER parsing and the associated complexity but they are not backwards compatible with implementations requiring DER encoded X.509. The invertible CBOR encoding is recommended for use here. This can be readily implemented through libraries that do the translation, as needed, between X.509 and c509. 2. Terms and Definitions 2.1. Requirements 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. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 8] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 2.2. Definitions This document uses the terms defined in Section 2.2 of Drip Requirements and Terminology [RFC9153] and in Section 2 of Drip Architecture [RFC9434]. The following new terms are used in the document: Authorization DETs DETs whose use is to define a hierarchy level and endorse lower hierarchy level Authorization DETs and finally Issuing DETs at this hierarchy level. They the DETs in the Authentication Endorsements and X.509 certificates. DKI A DRIP Entity Tag (DET) public Key Infrastructure. Similar to an X.509 PKI, but built on the DRIP Endorsements. IAL (Identity Assurance Level) ICAO: "The confidence in the identity verification processes used to establish the identity of an entity associated with a certificate. The robustness of identity proofing and the certainty with which the identity is bound to the certificate." International Aviation Trust Framework (IATF) The ICAO IATF is comprised of a set of policies, requirements, and best practices that will enable resilient and secured ground- ground, air-ground, and air-air exchange of digital information, and among both traditional and newly-emerging system stakeholders. Issuing DETs DETs whose use is to sign Endorsements and X.509 certificates for Operational DETs that are at the same hierarchy level as the Issuing DET. LOA (Level of Assurance) ICAO: "The confidence in the security measures that protect the private key and manage the certificate lifecycle." Operational DETs DETs used by various entities in DRIP protocols and as non- routable IPv6 addresses. A partial list of such entities includes: GCS, Infrastructure (e.g. wireless tower systems), UAS Operators, Pilots-in-command, Servers, UA. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 9] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 System Wide Information Management (SWIM) The ICAO SWIM consists of Standards, Infrastructure and Governance enabling the management of Air Navigation Systems (ANS) related information and its exchange between qualified parties via interoperable services. 3. The DET public Key Infrastructure (DKI) 3.1. The DKI Levels 3.1.1. The Apex The Apex Authorization DET is used to endorse RAA Authorization DETs and its own Apex Issuing DETs; it has no other use. This is the case for all Authorization DETs. Apex Issuing DETs are used to endorse DETs, with HID= 0|0, used by Apex services. The DET Apex may be only theoretical if no Entity steps forward to provide this role. 3.1.2. The RAAs Each RAA use its Authorization DET (HID = RAA#|0) to endorse its RAA Issuing DET(s) (also HID = RAA#|0) and for signing its HDA Authorization DETs (HID = RAA#|HDA#). An RAA may have multiple Issuing DETs (HID = RAA#|0), each for a different use (e.g. CRL signing, RAA server signing). It is expected that, over time, an RAA will rollover its Issuing DETs, thus at times there will be more than ONE Issuing DET per role in use. These Issuing DETs, like those at the Apex level, constitute an implicit HDA. There is no Authorization DET for this implicit HDA, but other than only signing for entities like servers needed by the RAA, it should be considered as an HDA in terms of policies. An RAA may directly issue DETs for Operators/Pilots, but it is recommended that if the RAA has this responsiblity, it runs an HDA specifically for this function. This allows separation of the RAA role from the HDA. It is recommended that the RAA only offer Endorsing/Signing services for the functions of running the RAA. The initial RAA range assignments are defined in Section 6.2.1 of [drip-registries], Table 1. It is anticipated that DRIP usage will expand to use into General/Civil Aviation. Thus at some point a block of RAAs will be set aside much like for the CTA-2063A [CTA2063A] range. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 10] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 3.1.3. The HDAs Each HDA use its Authorization DET to endorse its HDA Issuing DETs (e.g. RAA=267, HDA=567). An HDA Issuing DET is used to endorse Operational DETs; those used by the HDA for its services (e.g. USS) and for Devices (e.g. UA, GCS, ground infrastructure) partaking in the HDA's services. If the Operational DET is a Manufacturer DET, the "valid not after" date (vna) MUST be 99991231235959Z. An HDA may directly issue DETs for Operators/Pilots. It is recommended that different Issuing HDAs be used for devices and people. They may be under the same Authentication HDA. Of importance is that there are different LOAs for CAs for people and devices per Section 6.1. 3.2. The Offline Requirement for Authentication DETs The Authentication DETs private keys MUST NEVER be on a system with any network connectivity. Also efforts MUST be taken to limit any external digital media connections to these offline systems. Compromise of an Authentication DET compromises its and all lower hierarchy levels. Such a compromise could result in a major re- signing effort with a new Authentication DET. Also, during the time of compromise, fraudulent additions to the DKI could have occurred. This means that the process whereby the Authentication DET is used to sign the Endorsement/X.509 certificate of its level's Issuing DET(s) and lower level Authentication DETs MUST be conducted in an offline manner (e.g. Section 6). This offline process need not be onerous. For example, QR codes could be used to pass CSR objects to the offline Authentication DET system, and this system could produce QR codes containing the Endorsements and X.509 certificates it signed (Section 6.4). A video conference between the parties could have one side show its QR code and the other copy and print it to move between the video conferencing system and the offline system. This is a simplification of a larger signing operation, but shows how such a signing need not require travel and expensive hand-off methodologies. It should be noted that the endorsement of Issuing DETs follow the same restriction, as it is done with the Authentication DET. It MUST be conducted in an offline manner. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 11] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 3.3. DNS view of DKI The primary view of the DKI is within DNS. This is in the 3.0.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa zone (Apex level of the DRIP IPv6 DET format). In the DET DNS structure, only the Apex and RAA levels MUST be DNSSEC signed. The HDA level may be too dynamic for DNSSEC signing (e.g. hundreds of new EE Operational DETs per hour); trust in the EE Operational DETs within the HDA level comes through inclusion of the HDA Endorsement of EE object. A slow-churn HDA MAY use DNSSEC. The RAA and HDA levels MUST contain their Endorsement by higher object; this provides the needed trust in the Endorsement of EE objects. The Apex level Endorsement is self-signed, thus trust in it is only possible via DNSSEC. Endorsements are stored in the DNS BRID RR (Section 5.2 of [drip-registries]). X.509 certificates in the DNS HHIT RR (Section 5.1 of [drip-registries]). Authors note: These RR will only be available once [drip-registries] is published. Until then, [RFC3597] will be used to encode these RR Types. Other RR within these levels will vary. There also may be HIP, TLSA, and/or URI RR. Each level continues on down the 3.0.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa zone for its Authorization DET and Issuing DET(s). RR with FQDNs for services offered may also be present in various forms (e.g. a URI for the commercial FQDN for the DKI Entity). TLSA RR of DET SPKI may be directly included here. Same with HIP RR. The Authorization Endorsement SHOULD be present, as SHOULD be Issuing Endorsements. 3.4. Managing DET Revocation For Operational DETs, there is no direct concept of DET revocation. Operational DETs are either discoverable via DNS or not valid despite being in a non-expired Endorsement signed an Issuing DET. Thus if an Issuing Entity needs to "revoke" an Operational DET it removes all entries for it from DNS, so a short TTL on those records is recommended. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 12] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 Authorization and Issuing DETs are not so easily "revoked"; something akin to an X.509 CRL mechanism is needed. This could best be dealt with by Endorsements managed in the new DET RR that includes revocation status. Thus Section 5.2 of [drip-registries] defines the specific RR for Endorsements that will be used here. Minimally, at least the revocation status and revocation date(s) need to be in this RR. Until this RR is available, there is no mechanism, other than removal for Authorization and Issuing DET revocations. 3.5. The Offline cache of HDA Issuing Endorsements The Offline cache of HDA Issuing Endorsements, used to verify various EE signed objects without needing DNS access, SHOULD consist of the HDA Authentication DET Endorsements of the HDA Issuing DETs. Thus the receiver has a trusted source of the HDA Issuing DET Public Key (HI) in a DRIP standard object (136 bytes). If the DKI DNS tree includes GEO location data and coverage, a receiver could query some service for a trusted cache within some radius of its location. Such as, please tell me of all HDAs within 100KM of... This cache MAY contain the full chain up to the Apex. This could be helpful in limited connectivity environments when encountering an HDA Issuing DET under a unknown Authenticated HDA or RAA. The needed trust chain could be shorter. 3.5.1. HDA Offline Trust cache There are situations where a list of specific HDAs for an entity to trust for some application is needed. This can best be met by maintaining a cache as above but only of the trusted HDA Issuing Endorsements. How a list of this limited trust is maintain and distributed is out of scope of this document and is left to those needing this specific feature. 4. The DKI's Shadow PKI The following defines the components of a DKI's shadow PKI built from X.509 certificates with content that mirrors that in the DKI Endorsements. There are two profiles provided; both may be used, or the community may select one for deployment. In both cases, the PKI tree mirrors that of the DKI levels (Section 3.1). It is recommended that at least the PKIX-like Section 4.2 be deployed, as its CA certificates contain ICAO policy OIDs the reflect on the whole DKI deployment. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 13] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 At this point in defining the shadow PKIs, alternatives to a strict hierarchy is still an open work item. This work will follow the pattern set in Section 1.1. 4.1. Shadow Lite-PKI with minimal content Certificates The Lite-PKI is designed to fully mirror the DKI in the smallest reasonable X.509 certificates (e.g. 240 bytes for DER), but still adhere to [RFC5280] MUST field usage. 4.1.1. DRIP Lite X.509 certificate profile The following is the profile for the DRIP X.509 Lite certificates Certificate: Data: Version: 3 (0x2) Serial Number: Signature Algorithm: ED25519 Issuer: CN = Validity Not Before: Not After : Subject: {CN = or Empty} Subject Public Key Info: Public Key Algorithm: ED25519 ED25519 Public-Key: pub: X509v3 extensions: {Operation Certs ONLY} X509v3 Subject Alternative Name: critical IP Address: Signature Algorithm: ED25519 Signature Value: Figure 2: The X.509 Lite Profile 4.1.2. DRIP Lite Mandatory Certificate Content The following detail the Mandatory to include content in all DRIP Lite certificates. 4.1.2.1. Serial Number The Serial Number is a MUST field, but it has no usage in this Lite- PKI. It is 1-byte in size and thus duplicates are guaranteed. To drop this field could make many X.509 parsing libraries fail. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 14] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 However, CA certificate's Serial Number MAY be the common 20 bytes. This is to avoid possible issues with general software expecting this size Serial Numbers for CAs. If Serial Numbers are incrementally assigned, 31 bits are sufficient for an Issuing CA with 2B DETs active. A CA should determine its best-used Serial Number field size to limit the impact of this field on the certificate size. 4.1.2.2. Subject The Subject field is only used in Authentication and Issuing Certificates. For Entity Certificates, the Subject is Empty and the DET will be in Subject Alternative Name (SAN). In the SAN, the DET can be properly encoded as an IPv6 address. The Subject field in Authentication and Issuing Certificates uses the following format: DRIP-{APEX|RAA|HDA}-{A|I}[-RAA#][-HDA#] Examples: DRIP-RAA-A-16376 DRIP-HDA-I-16376-16376 Figure 3: Lite CA Certificate Subject Name Format The CA Subject Name serves a duo purpose: foremostly, to place the CA within the DKI tree, but secondly for outside of DRIP usage to tag that this CA's function is to serve DRIP Entities. 4.1.2.3. Subject Alternative Name Subject Alternative Name is only used in Operational (End Entity) certificates. It is used to provide the DET as an IP address with an Empty Subject (SAN MUST be flagged as Critical). The Subject Alternative Name is also used in Manufacturer DET certificates. These may contain the hardwareModuleName as described in [IEEE 802.1AR] that references [RFC4108]. Per [RFC5280] and [IEEE 802.1AR], Manufacturer DET certificates with hardwareModuleName MUST have the notAfter date as 99991231235959Z. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 15] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 4.1.2.4. Issuer The Issuer MUST be the higher level's DET. The Issuer for the Apex Authentication certificate MUST be its DET (indicating self-signed). If the RAA Authentication certificate is self-signed (i.e., no Apex), its Issuer is its DET. The Issuer content of its DET assists in finding this specific Issuer in the DRIP ip6.arpa. DNS tree and any additional information. 4.1.3. DRIP Lite Mandatory CA Certificate Content The following detail the Mandatory content for DRIP Lite CA certificates. 4.1.3.1. Basic Constraints CA certificates MUST contain the CA=True object, flagged Critical as a Basic Constraint. 4.1.4. DRIP Lite Optional CA Certificate Content The following detail the Optional content for DRIP Lite CA certificates. Inclusion of these objects are based on the policies of the CA using them and CAs higher in the trust chain. 4.1.4.1. CA Subject Alternative Name URI This is the one exception to Section 4.1.2.3. A CA certificate MAY have a SAN URI, containing a pointer where additional information on the CA and certificates under its control. For example, an authorized authority may access EE PII like an Operator phone number through this URI link. 4.1.4.2. Key Usage The CA certificate MAY contain the keyUsage extension. For example, it may assert Certificate Signing and flag this as Critical. 4.1.4.3. CA Policy OIDs The CA MAY have policy OIDs defining rules for EEs within its domain. The OIDs used here will tend to be within ICAO's arc of 1.3.27.16. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 16] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 4.1.5. The test DKI and Lite PKI The test DKI and Lite PKI, (Appendix A/Appendix B), were created using the python scripts at [drip_scripts]. First csr-gen.py is used to create an X.509 CSR (and optionally the EdDSA keypair). This CSR is minimal in content. For example, a UA might only have knowledge of its Manufacturer Serial Number and can generate its keypair. Per [drip-registration-cwt], this CSR may be sent to the CA with additional information provided by the Operator, for example desired validityDates. The raa-endorse.py and hda-endorse.py scripts are provided to produce the DRIP Endorsements and X.509 certificates. At this time, with no Apex level, each RAA Authorization CA is self- signed. These are created using the RAA's CSR and its own keypair as input to the raa-endorse.py script. Normally, the raa-endorse.py script is used to create the HDA's Authorization and Issuing CAs and the hda-endorse.py script for the End Entity certificates. 4.2. Shadow PKI with PKIX-like Certificates The X.509 certificates are minimalistic (less than 400 bytes for DER). Any DRIP specific OIDs should come from the ICAO arc (e.g. 1.3.27.16.1). 4.2.1. DRIP PKIX X.509 certificate profile The following is the profile for the DRIP X.509 certificates Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 17] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 Certificate: Data: Version: 3 (0x2) Serial Number: Signature Algorithm: ED25519 Issuer: CN = Validity Not Before: Not After : Subject: {CN = or Empty} Subject Public Key Info: Public Key Algorithm: ED25519 ED25519 Public-Key: pub: X509v3 extensions: X509v3 Subject Alternative Name: critical {in EE} IP Address: X509v3 Subject Key Identifier: {not in EE} X509v3 Authority Key Identifier: X509v3 Basic Constraints: critical X509v3 Key Usage: critical Signature Algorithm: ED25519 Signature Value: Figure 4: DRIP X.509 certificate profile 4.2.2. DRIP PKIX Mandatory Certificate Content The following detail the Mandatory to include content in all DRIP Lite certificates. 4.2.2.1. Serial Number The certificates will contain a 20-byte randomly generated Serial Number, compliant with CABForum recommendations. Serial Numbers are included for CRL functionality. 4.2.2.2. Subject The Subject field is only used in Authentication and Issuing Certificates. For Entity Certificates, the Subject is Empty and the DET will be in Subject Alternative Name (SAN). In the SAN, the DET can be properly encoded as an IPv6 address. The Subject field in Authentication and Issuing Certificates uses the following format: Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 18] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 DRIP-{APEX|RAA|HDA}-{A|I}[-RAA#][-HDA#] Examples: DRIP-RAA-A-16376 DRIP-HDA-I-16376-16376 Figure 5: CA Certificate Subject Name Format The CA Subject Name serves a duo purpose: foremostly, to place the CA within the DKI tree, but secondly for outside of DRIP usage to tag that this CA's function is to serve DRIP Entities. 4.2.2.3. Subject Alternative Name Subject Alternative Name is only used in Operational (End Entity) certificates. It is used to provide the DET as an IP address with an Empty Subject (SAN MUST be flagged as Critical). The Subject Alternative Name is also used in Manufacturer DET certificates. These may contain the hardwareModuleName as described in [IEEE 802.1AR] that references [RFC4108]. Per [RFC5280] and [IEEE 802.1AR], Manufacturer DET certificates with hardwareModuleName MUST have the notAfter date as 99991231235959Z. 4.2.2.4. Issuer The Issuer MUST be the higher level's DET. The Issuer for the Apex Authentication certificate MUST be its DET (indicating self-signed). If the RAA Authentication certificate is self-signed (i.e., no Apex), its Issuer is its DET. The Issuer content of its DET assists in finding this specific Issuer in the DRIP ip6.arpa. DNS tree and any additional information. 4.2.2.5. Subject Key Identifier The Subject Key Identifier MUST be the DET. This is a major deviation from "standard" X.509 certificates that hash (normally with SHA2) the Public Key to fill the Subject Key Identifier. The Subject Key Identifier is NOT included in EE certificates. If needed by some application, it is identical with SAN. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 19] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 4.2.2.6. Authority Key Identifier The Authority Key Identifier MUST be the higher level's Subject Key Identifier (i.e. DET). This partially follows standard practice to chain up the Authority Key Identifier' from the Subject Key Identifier, except for how the Subject Key Identifiers are populated. The Authority Key Identifier for the Apex Authentication (or self- signed RAA Authentication ) certificate MUST be the Subject Key Identifier (indicating self-signed). 4.2.3. DRIP PKIX Mandatory CA Certificate Content The following detail the Mandatory content for DRIP PKIX CA certificates. 4.2.3.1. Basic Constraints CA certificates MUST contain the CA=True object, flagged Critical as a Basic Constraint. 4.2.4. DRIP PKIX Optional CA Certificate Content The following detail the Optional content for DRIP PKIX CA certificates. Inclusion of these objects are based on the policies of the CA using them and CAs higher in the trust chain. 4.2.4.1. CA Subject Alternative Name URI This is the one exception to Section 4.2.2.3. A CA certificate MAY have a SAN URI, containing a pointer where additional information on the CA and certificates under its control. For example, an authorized authority may access EE PII like an Operator phone number through this URI link. 4.2.4.2. Key Usage The CA certificate SHOULD contain the keyUsage extension. For example, it may assert Certificate Signing and flag this as Critical. 4.2.4.3. CA Policy OIDs It is recommended that a CA have policy OIDs defining rules for EEs within its domain. The OIDs used here will tend to be within ICAO's arc of 1.3.27.16. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 20] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 If the CA certificate has policy OIDs, it MUST include an ICAO LOA OID defining "the confidence in the security measures that protect the private key and manage the certificate lifecycle". Currently defined OIDs [ICAO-Doc-10169] in ICAO's LOA arc of 1.3.27.16.1.1.0: +=====+======================+======================================+ | OID | Description | Applicability | +=====+======================+======================================+ | 1 | Low | This level is relevant to | | | | environments where Risks and | | | | consequences of data Compromise are | | | | low. | | | | | | | | Subscriber Private Keys shall be | | | | stored in software at this Identity | | | | Assurance Level (IAL). | +-----+----------------------+--------------------------------------+ | 2 | LowDevice | TBD | +-----+----------------------+--------------------------------------+ | 3 | Low-TSP Mediated | This policy is identical to that | | | Signature | defined for the Low Assurance | | | | policy (above) with the exception | | | | that the Private key is not in the | | | | possession of the user, but rather | | | | by a Trust Service Provider. | +-----+----------------------+--------------------------------------+ | 4 | Medium | This level is relevant to | | | | environments where Risks and | | | | consequences of data Compromise are | | | | moderate.

This can include Organizations, hardware devices (e.g. a UA), software applications, and information artifacts. End Entity Certificates issued to Devices shall assert policies mapped to LowDevice, MediumDevice, MediumDeviceHardware, or High Content Signing policies. All other policies defined here should be reserved for human Subscribers when used in End Entity Certificates. Thus it is recommended that Issuing CAs/HDAs should be segregated by device and human subscribers so policy can be stated at the CA level rather in individual certificates. Author's note: The applicability statement for LowDevice is not yet defined in 10169. This is still an open item. The Author has commented to IACO that this should be the similar to MediumDevice. That is as MediumDevice is to Medium, LowDevice is to Device. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 23] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 4.2.5. The PKIX-like test PKI Author's Note: At this time, the following PKIX-like test PKI and Appendix B.2 is is a work-in-progress. The content has not been updated from prior work, and may not reflect current needs. The PKIX-like test PKI, following the test DKI, was built with openSSL using the "req" command to create a CSR and the "ca" command to sign the CSR, making the certificate. A guide for using openSSL as here can be found in [ec-pki-guidance]. It should be noted that these CSRs have all the content, less the validityDates, for making a DRIP Endorsement, such that a registrar may prefer to receive CSRs and use it to make both structures. The registrar, per CA practices will provide the validityDates per its policy. The self-signed certificates created by "req -x509" does not allow selection of the validity dates, only the number of days from NOW. The hack used around this limitation is to create a throw-away self- signed certificate as above with the Apex's (or RAA's) DET. Then create a CSR with that DET and sign it with the throw-away certificate, setting the validity dates as desired. This now becomes the actual Apex (or RAA's) self-signed Authentication certificate and the throw-away certificate can now be thrown away. 5. The DKI and the ICAO SWIM PKI ICAO advocates for a federated implementation model of individual PKIs based on common standards, the total of which can be considered an international aviation trust framework. This is embodied in Aviation Common Certificate Policy (ACCP) [ICAO-Doc-10169]. A test of a compliant PKI is rolling out for testing the Aviation System Wide Information Management (SWIM) environment. Currently, this PKI is using ECDSA P-256 in its certificates. This is equivalent to DET SuiteID of "3". The subjectNames in use can readily by mapped to RAAs (Section 6.2.1 of [drip-registries], Table 1) and HDAs. Thus it is a potential straight-forward technical work item to add DET support into the PKI. The DETs can readily be stored in subjectAltName or more interestingly in subjectKeyIdentifier (and thus authorityKeyIdentifier). Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 24] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 There are a number of advantages for SWIM to have DETs and the matching DNS available. For example, the "cost" of adding DETs to these certificates could result in moving much of their content into DNS SRV RR and potentially reduce their size by 1/3rd. DETs as the authorityKeyIdentifier would enable DNS for Trust Chain discovery. Another approach is direct inclusion in this PKI of the DET "Lite" EE certificates for constrained A2A communications. Discussions are ongoing with those involved with the ACCP and this could open up DET usage into General/Civil Aviation. 6. DRIP Tamper Evident CA Servers and Protocols The DRIP architecture [RFC9434] anticipates thousands of CAs for the thousands of administrative entities involved in the DRIP ecosystem. Current business models for deploying public-facing CAs are just not practical or affordable at this volume. Yet these DRIP CAs need to provide an acceptable LOA (Section 4.2.4.3). In-depth analysis of the CA needs for the DKI have resulted in a Tamper Evident CA design as described here. This Tamper Evident design SHOULD meet the Medium and MediumDevice LOAs in Section 4.2.4.3. If all data into and out from the DRIP CAs are strictly controlled, the sole hard-to-detect risk is are the keypairs for the CA really generated by the CA and not an artifact of corrupted code. For the Apex, RAA Auth, and HDA Auth CAs they need to have as input the next level down CSR and associated data and output the resultant DRIP Endorsements and X.509 certificates. These CAs are basically kept locked away except during these occasional signing operations. A CA with all data ports sealed and only the camera to read QR encoded data and the screen to display similarly QR encoded data can provide this Tamper Evident CA design. The HDA Issuing CA (and any other Issuing CA) will be too heavily used to be locked away. But if it is connected via USB to a USS provider server and ONLY the same data objects as above are processed via that USB connection, almost the same assurance level can be shown. 6.1. CA servers LOA Apex and RAA CA servers SHOULD meet at least the Medium LOA. They MAY meet the High LOA. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 25] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 HDA Authentication CA servers SHOULD also meet at least the Medium LOA. They MAY meet the High LOA. If they only support Devices, they MAY assert the appropriate Device LOA. HDA Issuing CA servers SHOULD also meet at least the Medium LOA. They MAY meet the High LOA. It is recommended that CAs separately service Devices and People and assert the appropriate LOA. 6.2. What Tamper Evident means Here, Tamper Evident means that any unofficial access to the CA is recorded and steps can be taken to mitigate any damages. Start with a system with a known software build and all needed applications. This part of the setup MUST be done without any Internet connectivity. Perhaps from known CD/DVD images. During this setup, all data ports, other than that used for the CD/DVD reader are sealed with security tape. After the build, that port is also so sealed. The only remaining input devices to the system is its camera and keyboard. The only output device is the integral display. A notebook is best for this purpose, as once closed, security tape can seal it closed thus any attempt to access the keyboard will be evident. Any use of this CA is videoed and the time from the security seal broken to a new one attached is logged. Thus any tampering with the system can be detected, as security seals will have been removed to gain access. 6.2.1. Issuing CA special case Issuing CAs present a special case and a serious challenge. These servers could be signing thousands of DETs per day; their use MUST be an automated, always accessible service to the USS. One approach would be these CAs are hardwired to a USS server via a USB null-modem cable that has security tape on both end connectors. The application controlling this USB port on the CA ONLY accepts, and outputs, a set of expected X.509 and related objects. Any other data sent over this USB to the server will return an error. Any attempt to attach a different device other than the USS server will cause a fault. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 26] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 By using a serial interface, there are significant limitations on what the OS can be tricked to do. Since this cable has security tape on the connectors, any changing of the cable should be evident. There might be other approaches to using a serial interface. 6.3. The Data Exchange The full extent of this exchange is a work-in-progress. It will be modeled after the exchanges covered in [drip-registration-cwt]. The data used by the CA can be grouped into three catagories: What the CA knows Its keypair Its DET, including the RRA, HDA, and SuiteID Its ICAO LOA Its serialNumber length in bits Does it sign CAs or Entities Data from USS/Operator Signee CSR file Validity dates Data returned to USS/Operator Endorsements and Certificates This breakdown will advise the development of the CA operation. Still missing, and needing work, is signing a trust list. 6.4. QR Codes for the Exchange Protocol QR codes can encode up to 3KB of data. There are programs that can monitor the server's camera (e.g. zbarcam), producing a data file that can then be reviewed for correctness and processed. Likewise, there are programs (e.g. qrencode) that can accept a data file to create a QR code. If the data file is larger than 3KB, it SHOULD be fragmented and then generate multiple QR codes. These QR codes can be passed between DRIP administrators in a verifiable manner (to mitigate fraudulent activities) so that there may not be a need for in-person key signing. The HDA operator can express a paper with the CSR QR code. So proofing by the RAA Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 27] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 operator can validate this paper and the code really came from the HDA operator. After using this CSR, the RAA operator takes pictures of the generated output QR codes and gets those to the HDA operator who inputs them to their server as needed. 6.5. USB for the Exchange Protocol The USB exchange applications are both simpler and more demanding than the QR code approach. There are standard libraries for accepting data over USB and many ways to build this. The application monitors data coming in over USB and sends back data as appropriate. The challenge comes in ensuring that any attempts to alter the USB connection, as in unplugging the USS server and attaching a bootable USB drive, are detected and blocked. Only the exchange program has access, at the system level, to the USB port, and only expected data is accepted and returned. Using a serial null-modem inline on the USB connection may be the simplest way to enforce the USB behavior so that an attack on the USS side could not get the CA side to accept accepting attack code. It would take a physical cable change that would be visibly evident. 7. IANA Considerations TBD 8. Security Considerations Risks in the DKI are similar to those in any X.509 PKI. The methodologies to mitigate risk in PKI management should be considered and implemented as appropriate. The DKI presents a tree-breath problem that is rarely seen in PKIs and needs practical solutions to minimize cost of operations and not introduce risks needlessly. Consider that there can be 16,384 RAAs. Assume only 10,000 RAAs, each of which Authentication DET Endorsement has a 10 year validity period. This means that, on average, 1,000 RAAs per year need to rekey their Authentication DET Endorsement, or on average, 3 per day. Current witnessed key signing processes will not scale to this volume. Some virtual method (like in Section 3.2) is needed. Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 28] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 8.1. Protecting against DKI/PKI compromise There is always a risk of key compromise that could be a major setback to the operation of a PKI and likewise the DRIP DKI. To mitigate this risk, the Authentication DETs MUST only be used in offline signing operations. They MUST NEVER be used on connected systems. The information needed to create the Endorsements and X.509 certificates are brought to them on media that cannot transfer code, for example in a QR code. The objects that are created are then transferred away from the offline system to be used where needed. It should be noted that this offline process MUST be followed down the DKI/PKI tree. That is, the Apex has offline operations that include signing the RAA Authentication DET that will be used in the RAA's set up. 9. References 9.1.

Test DETs and Endorsements The following are test DETs and Endorsements for the test DKI. This testing environment is open to all. There are 4 RAAs available for others to build out. HDAs under the 4 preset RAAs, or under any of the 4, built out by others, are available. Finally the test HDA is available for setting up a handful of entities. Any tester wanting more than a few DETs for entities should plan on doing that under their own HDA. The following are the test values and objects. They were generated using the csr-gen.py, raa-endorse.py, and hda-endorse.py scripts available at [drip_scripts]. Note, that as there is no APEX level at this time, the RAA Endorsement is self-signed.

Test Lite C509 certificates The CBOR Encoded X.509 Certificates (C509 Certificates) [C509-Certificates] provides a standards-based approach to reduce the size of X.509 certificates both on-the-wire and in storage. These C509 certificates MAY be stored in the DET RR, but are more likely to by used in over-the-air protocols and exist only for transmission, being converted from/to their source X.509 certificates. Author's Note: This section is still a Work in Progress. The CBOR diagnostic tool is currently not working, and that content should be added back in on a later revision. Further note that we think there is a bug in the c509 code, making the certificate version = 1, not 3. The following are examples of a C509 cert. raa16376.cert CBOR: COSE_X509 (212 bytes) 8B 01 54 77 87 D8 A9 EB 72 E4 19 90 AF DB 94 CA 79 54 82 CB 93 D2 C5 78 20 32 30 30 31 30 30 33 66 66 65 30 30 30 30 30 35 30 36 61 62 35 38 37 35 34 66 36 38 65 36 62 33 1A 66 D3 AE BC 1A 6A 96 15 44 70 44 52 49 50 2D 52 41 41 2D 41 2D 31 36 33 37 36 0A 58 20 32 52 8C 1C 11 5D 00 4D 1F 00 8D 07 AC 50 7A 2D 83 BB AB 74 60 40 52 2E A6 CD C7 86 FA BC 80 57 86 22 82 07 50 20 01 00 3F FE 00 00 05 06 AB 58 75 4F 68 E6 B3 23 20 21 18 20 0C 58 40 EF E9 BB 74 75 FF 32 FF 72 2E CC CB B9 67 C1 6B 69 0E 99 00 84 87 1C AE E3 23 CA 69 13 C4 77 3C D3 1A C6 EA F0 40 85 F8 21 83 06 25 B0 B7 68 E2 38 82 B9 DB 1E 93 1A DB D4 6E 60 69 99 F6 E1 0F Moskowitz & Card Expires 17 September 2025 [Page 46] Internet-Draft DRIP DKI March 2025 ua1-16376-16376.cert CBOR: COSE_X509 (173 bytes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igure 10: Test Lite C.509 certificates Acknowledgments Many people assisted in creating the python scripts for making DETs and DRIP Endorsements. Any roughness in the scripts is all my doing. The openssl-user mailing list provided needed help in getting openssl command line to do what was needed to build the test PKI. The COSE C509 authors are providing active help in creating the C509 equivalent objects.
