Bush Internet-Draft Internet Initiative Japan Intended status: Standards Track September 13, 2011 Expires: March 16, 2012 The RPKI Ghostbusters Record draft-ietf-sidr-ghostbusters-10 Abstract In the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI), resource certificates completely obscure names or any other information which might be useful for contacting responsible parties to deal with issues of certificate expiration, maintenance, roll-overs, compromises, etc. This draft describes the RPKI Ghostbusters Record containing human contact information which may be verified (indirectly) by a CA certificate.

Introduction In the operational use of the RPKI it can become necessary to contact, human to human, the party responsible for a resource-holding CA certificate, AKA the certificate's maintainer, be it the holder of the certificate's private key or an administrative person in the organization, a NOC, .... An important example is when the operator of a prefix described by a Route Origin Authorization (ROA) sees a problem, or an impending problem, with a certificate or CRL in the path between the ROA and a trust anchor. E.g., a certificate along that path has expired, is soon to expire, or a CRL associated with a CA along the path is stale, thus placing the quality of the routing of the address space described by the ROA in jeopardy. As the names in RPKI certificates are not meaningful to humans, see [I-D.ietf-sidr-cp], there is no way to use a certificate itself to lead to the worrisome certificate's or CRL's maintainer. So, "Who do you call?" This document specifies the RPKI Ghostbusters Record, an object verified via an End Entity (EE) certificate, issued under a CA certificate, the maintainer of which may be contacted using the payload information in the Ghostbusters Record. The Ghostbusters Record conforms to the syntax defined in [I-D.ietf-sidr-signed-object]. Note that the Ghostbusters Record is not an identity certificate, but rather an attestation to the contact data made by the maintainer of the CA certificate issuing the EE certificate whose corresponding private key signs the Ghostbusters Record. This record is not meant to supplant or be used as resource registry whois data. It gives information about an RPKI CA certificate maintainer not a resource holder. The Ghostbusters Record is optional, CA certificates in the RPKI MAY have zero or more associated Ghostbuster Records. This specification has three main sections. The first, Section 4, is the format of the contact payload information, a severely profiled vCARD. The second, Section 5, profiles the packaging of the payload as a profile of the RPKI Signed Object Template specification [I-D.ietf-sidr-signed-object]. The third, Section 6, describes the proper validation of the signed Ghostbusters Record. Bush Expires March 16, 2012 [Page 3] Internet-Draft The RPKI Ghostbusters Record September 2011 2. Suggested Reading It is assumed that the reader understands the RPKI, [I-D.ietf-sidr-arch], the RPKI Repository Structure, [I-D.ietf-sidr-repos-struct], Signed RPKI Objects, [I-D.ietf-sidr-signed-object], and vCARDs [RFC6350]. 3. RPKI Ghostbusters Record Payload Example An example of an RPKI Ghostbusters Record payload with all properties populated is as follows: BEGIN:vCard VERSION:4.0 FN:Human's Name ORG:Organizational Entity ADR;TYPE=WORK:;;42 Twisty Passage;Deep Cavern; WA; 98666;U.S.A. TEL;TYPE=VOICE,MSG,WORK:+1-666-555-1212 TEL;TYPE=FAX,WORK:+1-666-555-1213 EMAIL;TYPE=INTERNET:human@example.com END:vCard 4. vCARD Profile The goal in profiling the vCARD is not to include as much information as possible, but rather to include as few properties as possible while providing the minimal necessary data to enable one to contact the maintainer of the RPKI data which threatens the ROA[s] of concern. The Ghostbusters vCARD payload is a minimalist subset of the vCARD as described in [RFC6350]. BEGIN - pro forma packaging which MUST be the first line in the vCARD and MUST have the value "BEGIN:vCARD" as described in [RFC6350]. VERSION - pro forma packaging which MUST be the second line in the vCARD and MUST have the value "VERSION:4.0" as described in 3.6.9 of [RFC6350]. FN - the name, as described in 6.2.1 of [RFC6350], of a contactable person who responsible a the CA certificate. Bush Expires March 16, 2012 [Page 4] Internet-Draft The RPKI Ghostbusters Record September 2011 ORG - an organization as described in 6.6.4 of [RFC6350]. ADR - a postal address as described in 6.3 of [RFC6350]. TEL - a voice and/or fax phone as described in 6.4.1 of [RFC6350]. EMAIL - an Email address as described in 6.4.2 of [RFC6350] END - pro forma packaging which MUST be the last line in the vCARD and MUST have the value "END:vCARD" as described in [RFC6350]. Per [RFC6350], the BEGIN, VERSION, FN, N, and END properties MUST be included in a record. To be useful, one or more of ADR, TEL, and EMAIL MUST be included. Other properties MUST NOT be included. 5. CMS Packaging The Ghostbusters Record is a CMS signed-data object conforming to the Signed Object Template for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure, [I-D.ietf-sidr-signed-object]. The ContentType of a Ghostbusters Record is defined as id-ct- rpkiGhostbusters, and has the numerical value of 1.2.840.113549.1.9.16.1.35. This OID MUST appear both within the eContentType in the encapContentInfo object as well as the ContentType signed attribute in the signerInfo object. See [I-D.ietf-sidr-signed-object]. eContent: The content of a Ghostbusters Record is described above in Section 4 above. Similarly to a ROA, a Ghostbusters Record is verified using an EE certificate issued by the resource-holding CA certificate whose maintainer is described in the vCARD. The EE certificate used to verify the Ghostbusters Record is the one that appears in the CMS data structure which contains the payload defined above. This EE certificate MUST describe its internet number resources using the "inherit" attribute, rather than explicit description of a resource set, see [RFC3779]. 6. Validation The validation procedure defined in Section 3 of Bush Expires March 16, 2012 [Page 5] Internet-Draft The RPKI Ghostbusters Record September 2011 [I-D.ietf-sidr-signed-object] is applied to a Ghostbusters Record. After this procedure has been performed, the Version number type within the payload is checked, and the OCTET STRING containing the vCARD data is extracted. These data are checked against the profile defined in Section 4 of this document. Only if all of these checks pass is the Ghostbusters payload deemed valid and made available to the application that requested the payload. 7. Security Considerations Though there is no on the wire protocol in this specification, there are attacks which could abuse the data described. As the data, to be useful, need to be public, little can be done to avoid this exposure. Phone Numbers: The vCARDs may contain real world telephone numbers which could be abused for telemarketing, abusive calls, etc. Email Addresses: The vCARDs may contain Email addresses which could be abused for purposes of spam. Relying parties are hereby warned that the data in a Ghostbusters Record are self-asserted. These data have not been verified by the CA that issued the CA certificate to the entity that issued the EE certificate used to validate the Ghostbusters Record. 8. IANA Considerations 8.1. OID The IANA is requested to register the OID for the Ghostbusters Record in the registry created by [I-D.ietf-sidr-signed-object] as follows: Name OID Specification ----------------------------------------------------------- Ghostbusters 1.2.840.113549.1.9.16.1.35 [ This document ] 8.2. File Extension The IANA is requested to add an item for the Ghostbusters Record file extension to the RPKI Repository Name Scheme created by [I-D.ietf-sidr-repos-struct] as follows: Filename Extension RPKI Object Reference ----------------------------------------------------------- .gbr Ghostbusters Record [ This document ] Bush Expires March 16, 2012 [Page 6] Internet-Draft The RPKI Ghostbusters Record September 2011 8.3. Media Type The IANA is requested to register the media type application/ rpki-ghostbusters as follows MIME media type name: application MIME subtype name: rpki-ghostbusters Required parameters: None Optional parameters: None Encoding considerations: binary Security considerations: Carries an RPKI Ghostbusters Record [I-D.ietf-sidr-ghostbusters]. Interoperability considerations: None Published specification: This document Applications which use this media type: Any MIME-complaint transport Additional information: Magic number(s): None File extension(s): .gbr Macintosh File Type Code(s): Person & email address to contact for further information: Randy Bush <randy@psg.com> Intended usage: COMMON Author/Change controller: Randy Bush <randy@psg.com> 9.
