Abstract
This document specifies a new Multimedia Internet KEYing (MIKEY)
General Extension payload (RFC 3830) to transport the short-term key
message (STKM) and long-term key message (LTKM) payloads defined in
the Open Mobile Alliance's (OMA) Browser and Content (BAC) Broadcast
(BCAST) group's Service and Content protection specification.

RFC 4909 OMA BCAST MIKEY General Extension June 2007
1. Introduction
The Multimedia Internet Keying (MIKEY) protocol specification [1]
defines a General Extension payload to allow possible extensions to
MIKEY without having to allocate a new payload type. The General
Extension payload can be used in any MIKEY message and is part of the
authenticated/signed data part. There is an 8-bit type field in that
payload. The type code assignment is IANA-managed, and RFC 3830
requires IETF consensus for assignments from the public range of
0-240.
The Open Mobile Alliance's (OMA) Browser and Content (BAC) Broadcast
(BCAST) group's Service and Content Protection specification [2]
specifies the use of a short-term key message (STKM) and a long-term
key message (LTKM) that carry attributes related to Service and
Content protection. Note that any keys associated with the
attributes are part of the MIKEY KEMAC payload. This document
specifies the use of the General Extension payload of MIKEY to carry
the LTKMs or STKMs.
RFC 3830 [1], the MIKEY General Extension payload defined in [3], and
the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)'s Multimedia Broadcast/
Multicast Service (MBMS) document [4] specify the transport of MIKEY
messages via unicast or broadcast and the OMA specifications use
either for transport of MIKEY messages.
2. Terminology
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 [5].
OMA BCAST STKM/LTKM MIKEY General Extension: We refer to the General
Extension type -- 5 -- as the OMA BCAST STKM/LTKM MIKEY General
Extension .

Section 6.1 of RFC 3830 specifies the first three fields of the
General Extension Payload and defines a variable length Data field.
This document specifies the use of Type 5 for OMA BCAST Service and
Content Protection using the Smartcard Profile. The contents of the
variable length data field are defined below.
Subtype: 8 bits. This field indicates the type of the OMA BCAST
payload. In this specification, only two values are specified:
LTKM (1), and STKM (2).
Subtype Specific Data: Variable length. The contents of this field
are defined in Section 6 of the OMA BCAST Service and Content
Protection specification [2].

4. Interoperability Considerations
This document specifies the use of MIKEY General Extension Payload
Type 5 and a couple of subtype values (1 and 2), one each for OMA
BCAST Service and Content protection's STKM and LTKM payloads.
Interoperability considerations span several standards bodies, with
OMA BCAST 1.0 enabler compliance being the key aspect; as such, it is
up to the OMA test planning to verify the interoperability and
compliance of OMA BCAST 1.0 implementations. This payload type
assignment does not change MIKEY beyond RFC 3830 [1] and RFC 4563
[3].

5. Security Considerations
According to RFC 3830, the general extension payload can be used in
any MIKEY message and is part of the authenticated/signed data part.
The parameters proposed to be included in the OMA BCAST MIKEY General
Extension payload (listed in Section 3) need only to be integrity
protected, which is already allowed by the MIKEY specification. The
OMA BCAST MIKEY General Extension Payload SHALL be integrity
protected. Furthermore, keys or any parameters that require
confidentiality MUST NOT be included in the General Extension
Payload. If keys or other confidential data are to be transported
via the General Extension Payload, such data MUST be encrypted and
encapsulated independently. Finally, note that MIKEY already
provides replay protection and that protection covers the General
Extension Payload also.
6. IANA Considerations
IANA has allocated a new General Extension Type from the "General
Extensions payload name spaces" in the IANA registry at
http://www.iana.org/assignments/mikey-payloads for use by OMA BCAST.
Furthermore, IANA maintains a list of corresponding subtypes (0-255)
as follows:
0 ... Reserved
1 ... LTKM
2 ... STKM
3 ... 191 (maintained by IANA and assigned by IETF Review [6])
192 ... 255 (Private use)
