The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Use of the HSS/LMS Hash-based Signature Algorithm with CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE)' (draft-ietf-cose-hash-sig-09.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the CBOR Object Signing and Encryption Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Benjamin Kaduk and Roman Danyliw. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-cose-hash-sig/ Technical Summary This document specifies the conventions for using the Hierarchical Signature System (HSS) / Leighton-Micali Signature (LMS) hash-based signature algorithm with the CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE) syntax. The HSS/LMS algorithm is one form of hash-based digital signature; it is described in RFC 8554. Working Group Summary The document has undergone several revisions since WG last call. These revisions were needed to address comments from the last call and to update a reference to a draft that has since been published. Document Quality There are no known implementations. This document specifies conventions for using HSS/LMS hash-based signature algorithm with COSE that are needed by other working groups. Beyond normal WG processes, Jim Schaad and John Mattsson did an in-depth reviews and had no substantive issues. Personnel Document Shepherd: Ivaylo Petrov (COSE WG chair) AD: Roman Danyliw (Sec AD)
