Introduction + + This document describes the conventions for using Elliptic Curve + Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key agreement using curve25519 and curve448 + [CURVES] in the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) [CMS]. Key + agreement is supported in three CMS content types: the enveloped-data + content type [CMS], authenticated-data content type [CMS], and the + authenticated-enveloped-data content type [AUTHENV]. + + The conventions for using some Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) + algorithms in CMS are described in [CMSECC]. These conventions cover + the use of ECDH with some curves other than curve25519 and curve448 + [CURVES]. Those other curves are not deprecated. + + Using curve25519 with Diffie-Hellman key agreement is referred to as + "X25519". Using curve448 with Diffie-Hellman key agreement is + referred to as "X448". + + + + + +Housley Standards Track [Page 2] + +RFC 8418 Using X25519 and X448 with CMS August 2018 + + +1.1. Terminology + + 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. + +1.2. ASN.1 + + CMS values are generated using ASN.1 [X680], which uses the Basic + Encoding Rules (BER) and the Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER) + [X690]. + +2. Key Agreement + + In 1976, Diffie and Hellman described a means for two parties to + agree upon a shared secret value in a manner that prevents + eavesdroppers from learning the shared secret value [DH1976]. This + secret may then be converted into pairwise symmetric keying material + for use with other cryptographic algorithms. Over the years, many + variants of this fundamental technique have been developed. This + document describes the conventions for using Ephemeral-Static + Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key agreement using X25519 and + X448 [CURVES]. + + The originator MUST use an ephemeral public/private key pair that is + generated on the same elliptic curve as the public key of the + recipient. The ephemeral key pair MUST be used for a single CMS- + protected content type, and then it MUST be discarded. The + originator obtains the recipient's static public key from the + recipient's certificate [PROFILE]. + + X25519 is described in Section 6.1 of [CURVES], and X448 is described + in Section 6.2 of [CURVES]. Conforming implementations MUST check + whether the computed Diffie-Hellman shared secret is the all-zero + value, and abort if so, as described in Section 6 of [CURVES]. If an + alternative implementation of these elliptic curves to that + documented in Section 6 of [CURVES] is employed, then the additional + checks specified in Section 7 of [CURVES] SHOULD be performed. + + In [CURVES], the shared secret value that is produced by ECDH is + called K. (In some other specifications, the shared secret value is + called Z.) A Key Derivation Function (KDF) is used to produce a + pairwise key-encryption key (KEK) from the shared secret value (K), + the length of the KEK, and the DER-encoded ECC-CMS-SharedInfo + structure [CMSECC]. + + + + +Housley Standards Track [Page 3] + +RFC 8418 Using X25519 and X448 with CMS August 2018 + + + The ECC-CMS-SharedInfo definition from [CMSECC] is repeated here for + convenience. + + ECC-CMS-SharedInfo ::= SEQUENCE { + keyInfo AlgorithmIdentifier, + entityUInfo [0] EXPLICIT OCTET STRING OPTIONAL, + suppPubInfo [2] EXPLICIT OCTET STRING } + + The ECC-CMS-SharedInfo keyInfo field contains the object identifier + of the key-encryption algorithm and associated parameters. This + algorithm will be used to wrap the content-encryption key. For + example, the AES Key Wrap algorithm [AESKW] does not need parameters, + so the algorithm identifier parameters are absent. + + The ECC-CMS-SharedInfo entityUInfo field optionally contains + additional keying material supplied by the sending agent. Note that + [CMS] requires implementations to accept a KeyAgreeRecipientInfo + SEQUENCE that includes the ukm field. If the ukm field is present, + the ukm is placed in the entityUInfo field. By including the ukm, a + different KEK is generated even when the originator ephemeral private + key is improperly used more than once. Therefore, if the ukm field + is present, it MUST be selected in a manner that provides, with very + high probability, a unique value; however, there is no security + benefit to using a ukm value that is longer than the KEK that will be + produced by the KDF. + + The ECC-CMS-SharedInfo suppPubInfo field contains the length of the + generated KEK, in bits, represented as a 32-bit number in network + byte order. For example, the key length for AES-256 [AES] would be + 0x00000100. + +2.1. ANSI-X9.63-KDF + + The ANSI-X9.63-KDF key derivation function is a simple construct + based on a one-way hash function described in American National + Standard X9.63 [X963]. This KDF is also described in Section 3.6.1 + of [SEC1]. + + Three values are concatenated to produce the input string to the KDF: + 1. The shared secret value generated by ECDH, K. + 2. The iteration counter, starting with one, as described below. + 3. The DER-encoded ECC-CMS-SharedInfo structure. + + To generate a key-encryption key (KEK), the KDF generates one or more + keying material (KM) blocks, with the counter starting at 0x00000001, + and incrementing the counter for each subsequent KM block until + enough material has been generated. The 32-bit counter is + + + + +Housley Standards Track [Page 4] + +RFC 8418 Using X25519 and X448 with CMS August 2018 + + + represented in network byte order. The KM blocks are concatenated + left to right, and then the leftmost portion of the result is used as + the pairwise key-encryption key, KEK: + + KM(i) = Hash(K || INT32(counter=i) || DER(ECC-CMS-SharedInfo)) + + KEK = KM(counter=1) || KM(counter=2) ... + +2.2. HKDF + + The Extract-and-Expand HMAC-based Key Derivation Function (HKDF) is a + robust construct based on a one-way hash function described in RFC + 5869 [HKDF]. HKDF is comprised of two steps: HKDF-Extract followed + by HKDF-Expand. + + Three values are used as inputs to the HKDF: + 1. The shared secret value generated by ECDH, K. + 2. The length in octets of the keying data to be generated. + 3. The DER-encoded ECC-CMS-SharedInfo structure. + + The ECC-CMS-SharedInfo structure optionally includes the ukm. If the + ukm is present, the ukm is also used as the HKDF salt. HKDF uses an + appropriate number of zero octets when no salt is provided. + + The length of the generated KEK is used in two places, once in bits + and once in octets. The ECC-CMS-SharedInfo structure includes the + length of the generated KEK in bits. The HKDF-Expand function takes + an argument for the length of the generated KEK in octets. + + In summary, to produce the pairwise key-encryption key, KEK: + + if ukm is provided, then salt = ukm, else salt is not provided + PRK = HKDF-Extract(salt, K) + + KEK = HKDF-Expand(PRK, DER(ECC-CMS-SharedInfo), SizeInOctets(KEK)) + +3. Enveloped-data Conventions + + The CMS enveloped-data content type [CMS] consists of an encrypted + content and wrapped content-encryption keys for one or more + recipients. The ECDH key agreement algorithm is used to generate a + pairwise KEK between the originator and a particular recipient. + Then, the KEK is used to wrap the content-encryption key for that + recipient. When there is more than one recipient, the same content- + encryption key MUST be wrapped for each of them. + + + + + + +Housley Standards Track [Page 5] + +RFC 8418 Using X25519 and X448 with CMS August 2018 + + + A compliant implementation MUST meet the requirements for + constructing an enveloped-data content type in Section 6 of [CMS]. + + A content-encryption key MUST be randomly generated for each instance + of an enveloped-data content type. The content-encryption key is + used to encrypt the content. + +3.1. EnvelopedData Fields + + The enveloped-data content type is ASN.1 encoded using the + EnvelopedData syntax. The fields of the EnvelopedData syntax MUST be + populated as described in Section 6 of [CMS]. The RecipientInfo + choice is described in Section 6.2 of [CMS], and repeated here for + convenience. + + RecipientInfo ::= CHOICE { + ktri KeyTransRecipientInfo, + kari [1] KeyAgreeRecipientInfo, + kekri [2] KEKRecipientInfo, + pwri [3] PasswordRecipientinfo, + ori [4] OtherRecipientInfo } + + For the recipients that use X25519 or X448, the RecipientInfo kari + choice MUST be used. + +3.2. KeyAgreeRecipientInfo Fields + + The fields of the KeyAgreeRecipientInfo syntax MUST be populated as + described in this section when X25519 or X448 is employed for one or + more recipients. + + The KeyAgreeRecipientInfo version MUST be 3. + + The KeyAgreeRecipientInfo originator provides three alternatives for + identifying the originator's public key, and the originatorKey + alternative MUST be used. The originatorKey MUST contain an + ephemeral key for the originator. The originatorKey algorithm field + MUST contain the id-X25519 or the id-X448 object identifier. The + originator's ephemeral public key MUST be encoded as an OCTET STRING. + + The object identifiers for X25519 and X448 have been assigned in + [RFC8410]. They are repeated below for convenience. + + + + + + + + + +Housley Standards Track [Page 6] + +RFC 8418 Using X25519 and X448 with CMS August 2018 + + + When using X25519, the public key contains exactly 32 octets, and the + id-X25519 object identifier is used: + + id-X25519 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { 1 3 101 110 } + + When using X448, the public key contains exactly 56 octets, and the + id-X448 object identifier is used: + + id-X448 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { 1 3 101 111 } + + KeyAgreeRecipientInfo ukm is optional. The processing of the ukm + with the ANSI-X9.63-KDF key derivation function is described in + Section 2.1, and the processing of the ukm with the HKDF key + derivation function is described in Section 2.2. + + The KeyAgreeRecipientInfo keyEncryptionAlgorithm MUST contain the + object identifier of the key-encryption algorithm that will be used + to wrap the content-encryption key. The conventions for using + AES-128, AES-192, and AES-256 in the key wrap mode are specified in + [CMSAES]. + + The KeyAgreeRecipientInfo recipientEncryptedKeys includes a recipient + identifier and encrypted key for one or more recipients. The + RecipientEncryptedKey KeyAgreeRecipientIdentifier MUST contain either + the issuerAndSerialNumber identifying the recipient's certificate or + the RecipientKeyIdentifier containing the subject key identifier from + the recipient's certificate. In both cases, the recipient's + certificate contains the recipient's static X25519 or X448 public + key. The RecipientEncryptedKey EncryptedKey MUST contain the + content-encryption key encrypted with the pairwise key-encryption key + using the algorithm specified by the KeyWrapAlgorithm. + +4. Authenticated-data Conventions + + The CMS authenticated-data content type [CMS] consists of an + authenticated content, a message authentication code (MAC), and + encrypted authentication keys for one or more recipients. The ECDH + key agreement algorithm is used to generate a pairwise KEK between + the originator and a particular recipient. Then, the KEK is used to + wrap the authentication key for that recipient. When there is more + than one recipient, the same authentication key MUST be wrapped for + each of them. + + A compliant implementation MUST meet the requirements for + constructing an authenticated-data content type in Section 9 of + [CMS]. + + + + + +Housley Standards Track [Page 7] + +RFC 8418 Using X25519 and X448 with CMS August 2018 + + + An authentication key MUST be randomly generated for each instance of + an authenticated-data content type. The authentication key is used + to compute the MAC over the content. + +4.1. AuthenticatedData Fields + + The authenticated-data content type is ASN.1 encoded using the + AuthenticatedData syntax. The fields of the AuthenticatedData syntax + MUST be populated as described in [CMS]; for the recipients that use + X25519 or X448, the RecipientInfo kari choice MUST be used. + +4.2. KeyAgreeRecipientInfo Fields + + The fields of the KeyAgreeRecipientInfo syntax MUST be populated as + described in Section 3.2 of this document. + +5. Authenticated-enveloped-data Conventions + + The CMS authenticated-enveloped-data content type [AUTHENV] consists + of an authenticated and encrypted content and encrypted content- + authenticated-encryption keys for one or more recipients. The ECDH + key agreement algorithm is used to generate a pairwise KEK between + the originator and a particular recipient. Then, the KEK is used to + wrap the content-authenticated-encryption key for that recipient. + When there is more than one recipient, the same content- + authenticated-encryption key MUST be wrapped for each of them. + + A compliant implementation MUST meet the requirements for + constructing an authenticated-data content type in Section 2 of + [AUTHENV]. + + A content-authenticated-encryption key MUST be randomly generated for + each instance of an authenticated-enveloped-data content type. The + content-authenticated-encryption key is used to authenticate and + encrypt the content. + +5.1. AuthEnvelopedData Fields + + The authenticated-enveloped-data content type is ASN.1 encoded using + the AuthEnvelopedData syntax. The fields of the AuthEnvelopedData + syntax MUST be populated as described in [AUTHENV]; for the + recipients that use X25519 or X448, the RecipientInfo kari choice + MUST be used. + +5.2. KeyAgreeRecipientInfo Fields + + The fields of the KeyAgreeRecipientInfo syntax MUST be populated as + described in Section 3.2 of this document. + + + +Housley Standards Track [Page 8] + +RFC 8418 Using X25519 and X448 with CMS August 2018 + + +6. Certificate Conventions + + RFC 5280 [PROFILE] specifies the profile for using X.509 Certificates + in Internet applications. A recipient static public key is needed + for X25519 or X448, and the originator obtains that public key from + the recipient's certificate. The conventions for carrying X25519 and + X448 public keys are specified in [RFC8410]. + +7. Key Agreement Algorithm Identifiers + + The following object identifiers are assigned in [CMSECC] to indicate + ECDH with ANSI-X9.63-KDF using various one-way hash functions. These + are expected to be used as AlgorithmIdentifiers with a parameter that + specifies the key-encryption algorithm.

SMIMECapabilities Attribute Conventions + + A sending agent MAY announce to other agents that it supports ECDH + key agreement using the SMIMECapabilities signed attribute in a + signed message [SMIME] or a certificate [CERTCAP]. Following the + pattern established in [CMSECC], the SMIMECapabilities associated + with ECDH carries a DER-encoded object identifier that identifies + support for ECDH in conjunction with a particular KDF, and it + includes a parameter that names the key wrap algorithm. + + The following SMIMECapabilities values (in hexadecimal) from [CMSECC] + might be of interest to implementations that support X25519 and X448: + + ECDH with ANSI-X9.63-KDF using SHA-256; uses AES-128 key wrap: + 30 15 06 06 2B 81 04 01 0B 01 30 0B 06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 + 01 05 + + ECDH with ANSI-X9.63-KDF using SHA-384; uses AES-128 key wrap: + 30 15 06 06 2B 81 04 01 0B 02 30 0B 06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 + 01 05 + + ECDH with ANSI-X9.63-KDF using SHA-512; uses AES-128 key wrap: + 30 15 06 06 2B 81 04 01 0B 03 30 0B 06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 + 01 05 + + ECDH with ANSI-X9.63-KDF using SHA-256; uses AES-256 key wrap: + 30 15 06 06 2B 81 04 01 0B 01 30 0B 06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 + 01 2D + + ECDH with ANSI-X9.63-KDF using SHA-384; uses AES-256 key wrap: + 30 15 06 06 2B 81 04 01 0B 02 30 0B 06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 + 01 2D + + ECDH with ANSI-X9.63-KDF using SHA-512; uses AES-256 key wrap: + 30 15 06 06 2B 81 04 01 0B 03 30 0B 06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 + 01 2D + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +Housley Standards Track [Page 10] + +RFC 8418 Using X25519 and X448 with CMS August 2018 + + + The following SMIMECapabilities values (in hexadecimal) based on the + algorithm identifiers in Section 7 of this document might be of + interest to implementations that support X25519 and X448: + + ECDH with HKDF using SHA-256; uses AES-128 key wrap: + 30 1A 06 0B 2A 86 48 86 F7 0D 01 09 10 03 13 30 0B 06 09 60 86 + 48 01 65 03 04 01 05 + + ECDH with HKDF using SHA-384; uses AES-128 key wrap: + 30 1A 06 0B 2A 86 48 86 F7 0D 01 09 10 03 14 30 0B 06 09 60 86 + 48 01 65 03 04 01 05 + + ECDH with HKDF using SHA-512; uses AES-128 key wrap: + 30 1A 06 0B 2A 86 48 86 F7 0D 01 09 10 03 15 30 0B 06 09 60 86 + 48 01 65 03 04 01 05 + + ECDH with HKDF using SHA-256; uses AES-256 key wrap: + 30 1A 06 0B 2A 86 48 86 F7 0D 01 09 10 03 13 30 0B 06 09 60 86 + 48 01 65 03 04 01 2D + + ECDH with HKDF using SHA-384; uses AES-256 key wrap: + 30 1A 06 0B 2A 86 48 86 F7 0D 01 09 10 03 14 30 0B 06 09 60 86 + 48 01 65 03 04 01 2D + + ECDH with HKDF using SHA-512; uses AES-256 key wrap: + 30 1A 06 0B 2A 86 48 86 F7 0D 01 09 10 03 15 30 0B 06 09 60 86 + 48 01 65 03 04 01 2D + +9.
