Re: [lamps] [EXTERNAL] Re: [CMP Updates] Requesting a current CRL

The introduction to Section 5 gives some examples on different scopes.
I du understand how to express theses scopes by using the flags David mentioned.

  *   "all certificates issued by CA X"
  *   "all CA certificates issued by CA X"
  *   "all certificates issued by CA X that have been revoked for reasons of key compromise and CA compromise",

But I have issues to understand how "all certificates issued to the NIST employees located in Boulder" would be expressed.
Can you give an example?

David:

These flags are clearly part of the scope.  The use of CRL distribution points in certificates can be used to divide the population of certificates across many different CRLs.

Interesting discussion!
It looks to me that the currently open issue boils down to uniquely identifying the (latest) CRL information currently known to the client.
Even when scoped, indirect, and delta CRLs need to be taken into account,
according to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5280#section-5.2.3<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdatatracker.ietf.org%2Fdoc%2Fhtml%2Frfc5280%23section-5.2.3&data=04%7C01%7Chendrik.brockhaus%40siemens.com%7C730a6cf99cfe45f6b1e508d98ccb6733%7C38ae3bcd95794fd4addab42e1495d55a%7C1%7C0%7C637695627504801460%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=vQVV1IHUgSbjezDqvu%2F01JXhEGZ6Zpnarlmjs3z%2Famg%3D&reserved=0>
apparently the following data should be sufficient for unique identification:
    CRL issuer, scope, and CRL Number,
or am I missing something?
And how is the scope defined/encoded?
I'm having a hard time getting this nailed down from RFC 5280 and other sources,
but according to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5280#section-5.2.5
<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdatatracker.ietf.org%2Fdoc%2Fhtml%2Frfc5280%23section-5.2.5&data=04%7C01%7Chendrik.brockhaus%40siemens.com%7C730a6cf99cfe45f6b1e508d98ccb6733%7C38ae3bcd95794fd4addab42e1495d55a%7C1%7C0%7C637695627504811454%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=TfKtJ1iJ1vgi3rDWO9iUC3dr7pyzCpliVbHFEmuFPds%3D&reserved=0>it looks like the scope is the combination of the following fields:

        onlyContainsUserCerts      [1] BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,

        onlyContainsCACerts        [2] BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,

        onlySomeReasons            [3] ReasonFlags OPTIONAL,

        indirectCRL                [4] BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,

        onlyContainsAttributeCerts [5] BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE }
right?

Thank you for this proposal. It looks straight forward.
I will need to dig a little deeper into the partitioning of CRLs and check the requirements of our use case for CRL retrieval via CMP to better understand the complexity needed.

Betreff: Re: [lamps] [EXTERNAL] Re: [CMP Updates] Requesting a current CRL

This is an interesting observation, but it does not seem to cover a certificate with multiple CRL distribution points, indirect CRLs, and delta CRLs.  I'm not sure we want all of that complexity here.  That said, it does make sense to me to list a distribution point name and the thisUpdate for each one.

CRLStatusList ::= SEQUENCE OF CRLStatus

CRLStatus ::= SEQUENCE {
   crldpn    DistributionPointName,
   thisUpdate    Time }

CRLs ::= SEQUENCE OF CertificateList

   GenMsg:    {id-it TBD}, CRLStatusList
   GenRep:    {id-it TBD}, CRLs  |  < absent >

Please also consider the following some complicated scenarios:

1. The CA may have multiple CRLs with different scopes. In RFC 4210, id-it 6
seems to work only for the CA with maximal one CRL scope.

2. The CA may issue full CRL and delta CRLs. Between the period of two full
CRLs, one or more delta CRLs will be issued.

Specifying only thisUpdate does not cover above scenarios, I will suggest to
define a new GenMesage (following the direction of Option B) as follows:

New Section
5.3.19.x Extended CRL Retrieval

CRLGenMsg: {id-it TBD}, ExtendedCRLRetrieval

ExtendedCRLRetrieval ::= SEQUENCE {
   lastCRL    LastCRL OPTIONAL,
              -- the meta data of last CRL known to the client
   crlNumber  INTEGER OPTIONAL
              -- only CRL with this number will be returned
}

LastCRL ::= SEQUENCE {
   thisUpdate          TIME,
   sha256DigestValue   OCTET STRING
                       -- SHA256 Fingerprint of CRL
}

GenRep: {id-it TBD}, SEQUENCE (0..MAX) OF CertificateList
                     -- The CA may have multiple CRLs with different scopes

At the first time, the client sends an ExtendedCRLRetrieval with an empty
SEQUENCE, and the CA returns the current CRLs of all scopes.

For the case without delta CRL, the client sends the following request to
get the current CRL only if it is generated after the lastCRL.

ExtendedCRLRetrieval
   lastCRL
       thisUpdate
       sha256DigestValue

The field sha256DigestValue is needed to identify the scope of CRL.

If the current CRL is a delta CRL, the client has to get the full CRL on
which this delta CRL bases on. It sends the following request:

ExtendedCRLRetrieval
    lastCRL   -- required only if there is more than 1 scope, since
              -- RFC 5280 allows two CRLs with different scopes to have
              -- the same crlNumber
    crlNumber


Since the response is a sequence of CertificateList, option 1A cannot be
applied here.

My question is, is it OK to reuse id-it-currentCrl together with id-it-crlThisUpdate like this

   GenMsg:    {id-it 6}, < absent >

Yes, because <absent> is exactly the same response that would be given if {id-it 6} is unrecognized by the server.
