+ Voluntary Application Server Identification (VAPID) for Web Push
+
+Abstract
+
+ An application server can use the Voluntary Application Server
+ Identification (VAPID) method described in this document to
+ voluntarily identify itself to a push service. The "vapid"
+ authentication scheme allows a client to include its identity in a
+ signed token with requests that it makes. The signature can be used
+ by the push service to attribute requests that are made by the same
+ application server to a single entity. The identification
+ information can allow the operator of a push service to contact the
+ operator of the application server. The signature can be used to
+ restrict the use of a push message subscription to a single
+ application server.

+RFC 8292 VAPID for Web Push November 2017
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ The Web Push protocol [RFC8030] describes how an application server
+ is able to request that a push service deliver a push message to a
+ user agent.
+
+ As a consequence of the expected deployment architecture, there is no
+ basis for an application server to be known to a push service prior
+ to requesting delivery of a push message. Requiring that the push
+ service be able to authenticate application servers places an
+ unwanted constraint on the interactions between user agents and
+ application servers, who are the ultimate users of a push service.
+ That constraint would also degrade the privacy-preserving properties
+ the protocol provides. For these reasons, [RFC8030] does not define
+ a mandatory system for authentication of application servers.
+
+ An unfortunate consequence of the design of [RFC8030] is that a push
+ service is exposed to a greater risk of denial-of-service attacks.
+ While requests from application servers can be indirectly attributed
+ to user agents, this is not always efficient or even sufficient.
+ Providing more information about the application server directly to a
+ push service allows the push service to better distinguish between
+ legitimate and bogus requests.
+
+ Additionally, the design of [RFC8030] relies on maintaining the
+ secrecy of push message subscription URIs. Any application server in
+ possession of a push message subscription URI is able to send
+ messages to the user agent. If use of a subscription could be
+ limited to a single application server, this would reduce the impact
+ of the push message subscription URI being learned by an unauthorized
+ party.
+
+1.1. Voluntary Identification
+
+ This document describes a system whereby an application server can
+ volunteer information about itself to a push service. At a minimum,
+ this provides a stable identity for the application server, though
+ this could also include contact information, such as an email
+ address.
+
+ A consistent identity can be used by a push service to establish
+ behavioral expectations for an application server. Significant
+ deviations from an established norm can then be used to trigger
+ exception-handling procedures.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Thomson & Beverloo Standards Track [Page 3]
+
+RFC 8292 VAPID for Web Push November 2017
+
+
+ Voluntarily provided contact information can be used to contact an
+ application server operator in the case of exceptional situations.
+
+ Experience with push service deployment has shown that software
+ errors or unusual circumstances can cause large increases in push
+ message volume. Contacting the operator of the application server
+ has proven to be valuable.
+
+ Even in the absence of usable contact information, an application
+ server that has a well-established reputation might be given
+ preference over an unidentified application server when choosing
+ whether to discard a push message.
+
+1.2. Notational Conventions
+
+ The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
+ "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
+ "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
+ BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
+ capitals, as shown here.
+
+ The terms "push message", "push service", "push message
+ subscription", "application server", and "user agent" are used as
+ defined in [RFC8030].
+
+2. Application Server Self-Identification
+
+ Application servers that wish to self-identify generate and maintain
+ a signing key pair. This key pair MUST be usable with the Elliptic
+ Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) over the P-256 curve
+ [FIPS186]. Use of this key when sending push messages establishes an
+ identity for the application server that is consistent across
+ multiple messages.
+
+ When requesting delivery of a push message, the application includes
+ a JSON Web Token (JWT) [RFC7519], signed using its signing key. The
+ token includes a number of claims as follows:
+
+ o An "aud" (Audience) claim in the token MUST include the Unicode
+ serialization of the origin (Section 6.1 of [RFC6454]) of the push
+ resource URL. This binds the token to a specific push service and
+ ensures that the token is reusable for all push resource URLs that
+ share the same origin.
+
+ o An "exp" (Expiry) claim MUST be included with the time after which
+ the token expires. This limits the time over which a token is
+ valid. An "exp" claim MUST NOT be more than 24 hours from the
+
+
+
+
+Thomson & Beverloo Standards Track [Page 4]
+
+RFC 8292 VAPID for Web Push November 2017
+
+
+ time of the request. Limiting this to 24 hours balances the need
+ for reuse against the potential cost and likelihood of theft of a
+ valid token.
+
+ This JWT is included in an Authorization header field, using an
+ authentication scheme of "vapid". A push service MAY reject a
+ request with a 403 (Forbidden) status code [RFC7231] if the JWT
+ signature or its claims are invalid. A push service MUST NOT use
+ information from an invalid token.
+
+ The JWT MUST use a JSON Web Signature (JWS) [RFC7515]. The signature
+ MUST use ECDSA on the NIST P-256 curve [FIPS186], which is identified
+ as "ES256" [RFC7518].
+
+2.1. Application Server Contact Information
+
+ If the application server wishes to provide contact details, it MAY
+ include a "sub" (Subject) claim in the JWT. The "sub" claim SHOULD
+ include a contact URI for the application server as either a
+ "mailto:" (email) [RFC6068] or an "https:" [RFC2818] URI.
+
+2.2. Additional Claims
+
+ An application server MAY include additional claims using public or
+ private names (see Sections 4.2 and 4.3 of [RFC7519]). Since the JWT
+ is in a header field, the size of additional claims SHOULD be kept as
+ small as possible.
+
+2.3. Cryptographic Agility
+
+ The "vapid" HTTP authentication scheme (Section 3) is used to
+ identify the specific profile of JWT defined in this document. A
+ different authentication scheme is needed to update the signature
+ algorithm or other parameters. This ensures that existing mechanisms
+ for negotiating authentication schemes can be used rather than
+ defining new parameter negotiation mechanisms.
+
+2.4. Example
+
+ An application server requests the delivery of a push message as
+ described in [RFC8030]. If the application server wishes to self-
+ identify, it includes an Authorization header field with credentials
+ that use the "vapid" authentication scheme.

+
+3. VAPID Authentication Scheme
+
+ This document defines a new HTTP authentication scheme [RFC7235]
+ named "vapid". This authentication scheme carries a signed JWT, as
+ described in Section 2, plus the key that signed that JWT.
+
+ This authentication scheme is for origin-server authentication only.
+ Therefore, this authentication scheme MUST NOT be used with the
+ Proxy-Authenticate or Proxy-Authorization header fields.
+
+
+
+
+
+Thomson & Beverloo Standards Track [Page 6]
+
+RFC 8292 VAPID for Web Push November 2017
+
+
+ The challenge for the "vapid" authentication scheme contains only the
+ "auth-scheme" production. No parameters are currently defined.
+
+ Two parameters are defined for this authentication scheme: "t" and
+ "k". All unknown or unsupported parameters to "vapid" authentication
+ credentials MUST be ignored. The "realm" parameter is ignored for
+ this authentication scheme.
+
+ This authentication scheme is intended for use by an application
+ server when using the Web Push protocol [RFC8030].
+
+3.1. Token Parameter ("t")
+
+ The "t" parameter of the "vapid" authentication scheme carries a JWT
+ as described in Section 2.
+
+3.2. Public Key Parameter ("k")
+
+ In order for the push service to be able to validate the JWT, it
+ needs to learn the public key of the application server. A "k"
+ parameter is defined for the "vapid" authentication scheme to carry
+ this information.
+
+ The "k" parameter includes an ECDSA public key [FIPS186] in
+ uncompressed form [X9.62] that is encoded using base64url encoding
+ [RFC7515].
+
+ Note: X9.62 encoding is used over JWK [RFC7517] for two reasons. A
+ JWK does not have a canonical form, so X9.62 encoding makes it
+ easier for the push service to handle comparison of keys from
+ different sources. Secondarily, the X9.62 encoding is also
+ considerably smaller.
+
+ Some elliptic curve implementations permit the same P-256 key to be
+ used for signing and key exchange. An application server MUST select
+ a different private key for the key exchange [RFC8291] and signing
+ the authentication token. Though a push service is not obligated to
+ check either parameter for every push message, a push service SHOULD
+ reject push messages that have identical values for these parameters
+ with a 400 (Bad Request) status code.
+
+4. Subscription Restriction
+
+ The public key of the application server serves as a stable
+ identifier for the server. This key can be used to restrict a push
+ message subscription to a specific application server.
+
+
+
+
+
+Thomson & Beverloo Standards Track [Page 7]
+
+RFC 8292 VAPID for Web Push November 2017
+
+
+ Subscription restriction reduces the reliance on endpoint secrecy by
+ requiring that an application server provide a signed token when
+ requesting delivery of a push message. This provides an additional
+ level of protection against leaking of the details of the push
+ message subscription.
+
+4.1. Creating a Restricted Push Message Subscription
+
+ A user agent that wishes to create a restricted subscription includes
+ the public key of the application server when requesting the creation
+ of a push message subscription. This restricts use of the resulting
+ subscription to application servers that are able to provide a valid
+ JWT signed by the corresponding private key.
+
+ The user agent then adds the public key to the request to create a
+ push message subscription. The push message subscription request is
+ extended to include a body. The body of the request is a JSON object
+ as described in [RFC7159]. The user agent adds a "vapid" member to
+ this JSON object that contains a public key on the P-256 curve,
+ encoded in the uncompressed form [X9.62] and base64url encoded
+ [RFC7515]. The media type of the body is set to "application/
+ webpush-options+json" (see Section 6.3 for registration of this media
+ type).
+
+ A push service MUST ignore the body of a request that uses a
+ different media type. For the "application/webpush-options+json"
+ media type, a push service MUST ignore any members on this object
+ that it does not understand.
+
+ The example in Figure 3 shows a restriction to the key used in
+ Figure 1. Extra whitespace is added to meet formatting constraints.
+
+ POST /subscribe/ HTTP/1.1
+ Host: push.example.net
+ Content-Type: application/webpush-options+json
+ Content-Length: 104
+ { "vapid": "BA1Hxzyi1RUM1b5wjxsn7nGxAszw2u61m164i3MrAIxH
+ F6YK5h4SDYic-dRuU_RCPCfA5aq9ojSwk5Y2EmClBPs" }
+
+ Figure 3: Example Subscribe Request
+
+ An application might use the Push API [API] to provide the user agent
+ with a public key.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Thomson & Beverloo Standards Track [Page 8]
+
+RFC 8292 VAPID for Web Push November 2017
+
+
+4.2. Using Restricted Subscriptions
+
+ When a push message subscription has been restricted to an
+ application server, the request for push message delivery MUST
+ include a JWT signed by the private key that corresponds to the
+ public key used when creating the subscription.
+
+ A push service MUST reject a message sent to a restricted push
+ message subscription if that message includes no "vapid"
+ authentication or invalid "vapid" authentication. A 401
+ (Unauthorized) status code might be used if the authentication is
+ absent; a 403 (Forbidden) status code might be used if authentication
+ is invalid.
+
+ "vapid" authentication is invalid if:
+
+ o either the authentication token or public key is not included in
+ the request,
+
+ o the signature on the JWT cannot be successfully verified using the
+ included public key,
+
+ o the current time is later than the time identified in the "exp"
+ (Expiry) claim or more than 24 hours before the expiry time,
+
+ o the origin of the push resource is not included in the "aud"
+ (Audience) claim, or
+
+ o the public key used to sign the JWT doesn't match the one that was
+ included in the creation of the push message subscription.
+
+ A push service MUST NOT forward the JWT or public key to the user
+ agent when delivering the push message.
+
+ An application server that needs to replace its signing key needs to
+ request the creation of a new subscription by the user agent that is
+ restricted to the updated key. Application servers need to remember
+ the key that was used when requesting the creation of a subscription.
+
+5. Security Considerations
+
+ This authentication scheme is vulnerable to replay attacks if an
+ attacker can acquire a valid JWT. Sending requests using HTTPS as
+ required by [RFC8030] provides confidentiality. Additionally,
+ applying narrow limits to the period over which a replayable token
+ can be reused limits the potential value of a stolen token to an
+ attacker and can increase the difficulty of stealing a token.
+
+
+
+
+Thomson & Beverloo Standards Track [Page 9]
+
+RFC 8292 VAPID for Web Push November 2017
+
+
+ An application server might offer falsified contact information. The
+ application server asserts its email address or contact URI without
+ any evidence to support the claim. A push service operator cannot
+ use the presence of unvalidated contact information as input to any
+ security-critical decision-making process.
+
+ Validation of a signature on the JWT requires a non-trivial amount of
+ computation. For something that might be used to identify legitimate
+ requests under denial-of-service attack conditions, this is not
+ ideal. Application servers are therefore encouraged to reuse tokens,
+ which permits the push service to cache the results of signature
+ validation.
+
+ An application server that changes its signing key breaks linkability
+ between push messages that it sends under different keys. A push
+ service that relies on a consistent identity for application servers
+ might categorize requests made with new keys differently. Gradual
+ migration to a new signing key reduces the chances that requests that
+ use the new key will be categorized as abusive.
+
+6. IANA Considerations
+
+ This document registers a new authentication scheme, a registry for
+ parameters of that scheme, and a media type for push options.
+
+6.1. VAPID Authentication Scheme Registration
+
+ This document registers the "vapid" authentication scheme in the
+ "Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Authentication Scheme Registry"
+ established by [RFC7235].
+
+ Authentication Scheme Name: vapid
+
+ Pointer to specification text: Section 3 of this document
+
+6.2. VAPID Authentication Scheme Parameters
+
+ This document creates a "VAPID Authentication Scheme Parameters"
+ registry for parameters to the "vapid" authentication scheme. These
+ parameters are defined for use in requests (in the Authorization
+ header field) and for challenges (in the WWW-Authenticate header
+ field). This registry is under the "Web Push Parameters" grouping.
+ The registry operates on the "Specification Required" policy
+ [RFC8126].
