+Abstract
+
+ This document describes how the OpenPGP Message Format can be used to
+ provide privacy and authentication using the Multipurpose Internet
+ Mail Extensions (MIME) security content types described in RFC 1847.
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ Work on integrating PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) with MIME [3]
+ (including the since withdrawn "application/pgp" content type) prior
+ to RFC 2015 suffered from a number of problems, the most significant
+ of which is the inability to recover signed message bodies without
+ parsing data structures specific to PGP. RFC 2015 makes use of the
+ elegant solution proposed in RFC 1847, which defines security
+ multipart formats for MIME. The security multiparts clearly separate
+ the signed message body from the signature, and have a number of
+ other desirable properties. This document revises RFC 2015 to adopt
+ the integration of PGP and MIME to the needs which emerged during the
+ work on the OpenPGP specification.
+
+ This document defines three content types for implementing security
+ and privacy with OpenPGP: "application/pgp-encrypted",
+ "application/pgp-signature" and "application/pgp-keys".
+
+
+
+
+Elkins, et al. Standards Track [Page 1]
+
+RFC 3156 MIME Security with OpenPGP August 2001
+
+
+ The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
+ "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
+ document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.
+
+2. OpenPGP data formats
+
+ OpenPGP implementations can generate either ASCII armor (described in
+ [1]) or 8-bit binary output when encrypting data, generating a
+ digital signature, or extracting public key data. The ASCII armor
+ output is the REQUIRED method for data transfer. This allows those
+ users who do not have the means to interpret the formats described in
+ this document to be able to extract and use the OpenPGP information
+ in the message.
+
+ When the amount of data to be transmitted requires that it be sent in
+ many parts, the MIME message/partial mechanism SHOULD be used rather
+ than the multi-part ASCII armor OpenPGP format.
+
+3. Content-Transfer-Encoding restrictions
+
+ Multipart/signed and multipart/encrypted are to be treated by agents
+ as opaque, meaning that the data is not to be altered in any way [2],
+ [7]. However, many existing mail gateways will detect if the next
+ hop does not support MIME or 8-bit data and perform conversion to
+ either Quoted-Printable or Base64. This presents serious problems
+ for multipart/signed, in particular, where the signature is
+ invalidated when such an operation occurs. For this reason all data
+ signed according to this protocol MUST be constrained to 7 bits (8-
+ bit data MUST be encoded using either Quoted-Printable or Base64).
+ Note that this also includes the case where a signed object is also
+ encrypted (see section 6). This restriction will increase the
+ likelihood that the signature will be valid upon receipt.
+
+ Additionally, implementations MUST make sure that no trailing
+ whitespace is present after the MIME encoding has been applied.
+
+ Note: In most cases, trailing whitespace can either be removed, or
+ protected by applying an appropriate content-transfer-encoding.
+ However, special care must be taken when any header lines - either
+ in MIME entity headers, or in embedded RFC 822 headers - are
+ present which only consist of whitespace: Such lines must be
+ removed entirely, since replacing them by empty lines would turn
+ them into header delimiters, and change the semantics of the
+ message. The restrictions on whitespace are necessary in order to
+ make the hash calculated invariant under the text and binary mode
+ signature mechanisms provided by OpenPGP [1]. Also, they help to
+ avoid compatibility problems with PGP implementations which
+ predate the OpenPGP specification.
+
+
+
+Elkins, et al. Standards Track [Page 2]
+
+RFC 3156 MIME Security with OpenPGP August 2001
+
+
+ Note: If any line begins with the string "From ", it is strongly
+ suggested that either the Quoted-Printable or Base64 MIME encoding
+ be applied. If Quoted-Printable is used, at least one of the
+ characters in the string should be encoded using the hexadecimal
+ coding rule. This is because many mail transfer and delivery
+ agents treat "From " (the word "from" followed immediately by a
+ space character) as the start of a new message and thus insert a
+ right angle-bracket (>) in front of any line beginning with
+ "From " to distinguish this case, invalidating the signature.
+
+ Data that is ONLY to be encrypted is allowed to contain 8-bit
+ characters and trailing whitespace and therefore need not undergo the
+ conversion to a 7bit format, and the stripping of whitespace.
+
+ Implementor's note: It cannot be stressed enough that applications
+ using this standard follow MIME's suggestion that you "be
+ conservative in what you generate, and liberal in what you
+ accept." In this particular case it means it would be wise for an
+ implementation to accept messages with any content-transfer-
+ encoding, but restrict generation to the 7-bit format required by
+ this memo. This will allow future compatibility in the event the
+ Internet SMTP framework becomes 8-bit friendly.
+
+4. OpenPGP encrypted data
+
+ Before OpenPGP encryption, the data is written in MIME canonical
+ format (body and headers).
+
+ OpenPGP encrypted data is denoted by the "multipart/encrypted"
+ content type, described in [2], and MUST have a "protocol" parameter
+ value of "application/pgp-encrypted". Note that the value of the
+ parameter MUST be enclosed in quotes.
+
+ The multipart/encrypted MIME body MUST consist of exactly two body
+ parts, the first with content type "application/pgp-encrypted". This
+ body contains the control information. A message complying with this
+ standard MUST contain a "Version: 1" field in this body. Since the
+ OpenPGP packet format contains all other information necessary for
+ decrypting, no other information is required here.
+
+ The second MIME body part MUST contain the actual encrypted data. It
+ MUST be labeled with a content type of "application/octet-stream".

+
+5. OpenPGP signed data
+
+ OpenPGP signed messages are denoted by the "multipart/signed" content
+ type, described in [2], with a "protocol" parameter which MUST have a
+ value of "application/pgp-signature" (MUST be quoted).
+
+ The "micalg" parameter for the "application/pgp-signature" protocol
+ MUST contain exactly one hash-symbol of the format "pgp-<hash-
+ identifier>", where <hash-identifier> identifies the Message
+ Integrity Check (MIC) algorithm used to generate the signature.
+ Hash-symbols are constructed from the text names registered in [1] or
+ according to the mechanism defined in that document by converting the
+ text name to lower case and prefixing it with the four characters
+ "pgp-".
+
+ Currently defined values are "pgp-md5", "pgp-sha1", "pgp-ripemd160",
+ "pgp-md2", "pgp-tiger192", and "pgp-haval-5-160".
+
+ The multipart/signed body MUST consist of exactly two parts. The
+ first part contains the signed data in MIME canonical format,
+ including a set of appropriate content headers describing the data.
+
+ The second body MUST contain the OpenPGP digital signature. It MUST
+ be labeled with a content type of "application/pgp-signature".
+
+
+
+Elkins, et al. Standards Track [Page 4]
+
+RFC 3156 MIME Security with OpenPGP August 2001
+
+
+ Note: Implementations can either generate "signatures of a
+ canonical text document" or "signatures of a binary document", as
+ defined in [1]. The restrictions on the signed material put forth
+ in section 3 and in this section will make sure that the various
+ MIC algorithm variants specified in [1] and [5] will all produce
+ the same result.
+
+ When the OpenPGP digital signature is generated:
+
+ (1) The data to be signed MUST first be converted to its content-
+ type specific canonical form. For text/plain, this means
+ conversion to an appropriate character set and conversion of
+ line endings to the canonical <CR><LF> sequence.
+
+ (2) An appropriate Content-Transfer-Encoding is then applied; see
+ section 3. In particular, line endings in the encoded data
+ MUST use the canonical <CR><LF> sequence where appropriate
+ (note that the canonical line ending may or may not be present
+ on the last line of encoded data and MUST NOT be included in
+ the signature if absent).
+
+ (3) MIME content headers are then added to the body, each ending
+ with the canonical <CR><LF> sequence.
+
+ (4) As described in section 3 of this document, any trailing
+ whitespace MUST then be removed from the signed material.
+
+ (5) As described in [2], the digital signature MUST be calculated
+ over both the data to be signed and its set of content headers.
+
+ (6) The signature MUST be generated detached from the signed data
+ so that the process does not alter the signed data in any way.
+
+ Note: The accepted OpenPGP convention is for signed data to end
+ with a <CR><LF> sequence. Note that the <CR><LF> sequence
+ immediately preceding a MIME boundary delimiter line is considered
+ to be part of the delimiter in [3], 5.1. Thus, it is not part of
+ the signed data preceding the delimiter line. An implementation
+ which elects to adhere to the OpenPGP convention has to make sure
+ it inserts a <CR><LF> pair on the last line of the data to be
+ signed and transmitted (signed message and transmitted message
+ MUST be identical).

+ The "&"s in the previous example indicate the portion of the data
+ over which the signature was calculated.
+
+ Upon receipt of a signed message, an application MUST:
+
+ (1) Convert line endings to the canonical <CR><LF> sequence before

+
+
+ (2) Pass both the signed data and its associated content headers
+ along with the OpenPGP signature to the signature verification
+ service.
+
+6. Encrypted and Signed Data
+
+ Sometimes it is desirable to both digitally sign and then encrypt a
+ message to be sent. This protocol allows for two methods of
+ accomplishing this task.
+
+6.1. RFC 1847 Encapsulation
+
+ In [2], it is stated that the data is first signed as a
+ multipart/signature body, and then encrypted to form the final
+ multipart/encrypted body. This is most useful for standard MIME-
+ compliant message forwarding.
+
+ Example:
+
+ Content-Type: multipart/encrypted;
+ protocol="application/pgp-encrypted"; boundary=foo
+
+ --foo
+ Content-Type: application/pgp-encrypted
+
+ Version: 1
+
+ --foo
+ Content-Type: application/octet-stream
+
+ -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
+ & Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-md5
+ & protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary=bar
+ &
+ & --bar
+ & Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
+ &
+ & This message was first signed, and then encrypted.
+ &
+ & --bar
+ & Content-Type: application/pgp-signature
+ &
+ & -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
+ & Version: 2.6.2
+ &
+ & iQCVAwUBMJrRF2N9oWBghPDJAQE9UQQAtl7LuRVndBjrk4EqYBIb3h5QXIX/LC//
+ & jJV5bNvkZIGPIcEmI5iFd9boEgvpirHtIREEqLQRkYNoBActFBZmh9GC3C041WGq
+ & uMbrbxc+nIs1TIKlA08rVi9ig/2Yh7LFrK5Ein57U/W72vgSxLhe/zhdfolT9Brn
+
+
+
+Elkins, et al. Standards Track [Page 7]
+
+RFC 3156 MIME Security with OpenPGP August 2001
+
+
+ & HOxEa44b+EI=
+ & =ndaj
+ & -----END PGP MESSAGE-----
+ &
+ & --bar--
+ -----END PGP MESSAGE-----
+
+ --foo--
+
+ (The text preceded by '&' indicates that it is really encrypted, but
+ presented as text for clarity.)
+
+6.2. Combined method
+
+ The OpenPGP packet format [1] describes a method for signing and
+ encrypting data in a single OpenPGP message. This method is allowed
+ in order to reduce processing overhead and increase compatibility
+ with non-MIME implementations of OpenPGP. The resulting data is
+ formatted as a "multipart/encrypted" object as described in Section
+ 4.
+
+ Messages which are encrypted and signed in this combined fashion are
+ REQUIRED to follow the same canonicalization rules as
+ multipart/signed objects.
+
+ It is explicitly allowed for an agent to decrypt a combined message
+ and rewrite it as a multipart/signed object using the signature data
+ embedded in the encrypted version.
+
+7. Distribution of OpenPGP public keys
+
+ Content-Type: application/pgp-keys
+ Required parameters: none
+ Optional parameters: none
+
+ A MIME body part of the content type "application/pgp-keys" contains
+ ASCII-armored transferable Public Key Packets as defined in [1],
+ section 10.1.
+
+8. Security Considerations
+
+ Signatures of a canonical text document as defined in [1] ignore
+ trailing white space in signed material. Implementations which
+ choose to use signatures of canonical text documents will not be able
+ to detect the addition of whitespace in transit.
+
+ See [3], [4] for more information on the security considerations
+ concerning the underlying protocols.

+ "application/pgp-signature" and "application/pgp-keys". The
+ following sections specify the IANA registrations for these types.
