A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8419 Title: Use of Edwards-Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) Signatures in the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) Author: R. Housley Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: August 2018 Mailbox: housley@vigilsec.com Pages: 9 Characters: 19080 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-curdle-cms-eddsa-signatures-08.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8419 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8419 This document specifies the conventions for using the Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) for curve25519 and curve448 in the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS). For each curve, EdDSA defines the PureEdDSA and HashEdDSA modes. However, the HashEdDSA mode is not used with the CMS. In addition, no context string is used with the CMS. This document is a product of the CURves, Deprecating and a Little more Encryption Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. This announcement is sent to the IETF-Announce and rfc-dist lists.
