1. Introduction
XML digital signatures, canonicalization, and encryption have been
standardized by the W3C and by the joint IETF/W3C XMLDSIG working
group [W3C]. All of these are now W3C Recommendations and some are
also RFCs. They are available as follows:
RFC
Status W3C REC Topic
----------- ------- -----
[RFC3275] [XMLDSIG10] XML Digital Signatures
Draft Standard
[RFC3076] [CANON10] Canonical XML
Informational
- - - - - - [XMLENC10] XML Encryption 1.0
[RFC3741] [XCANON] Exclusive XML Canonicalization 1.0
Informational
All of these documents and recommendations use URIs [RFC3986] to
identify algorithms and keying information types. The W3C has
subsequently produced updated XML Signature 1.1 [XMLDSIG11],
Canonical XML 1.1 [CANON11], and XML Encryption 1.1 [XMLENC11]
versions, as well as a new XML Signature Properties specification
[XMLDSIG-PROP].
All camel-case element names herein, such as DigestValue, are from
these documents.
This document is an updated convenient reference list of URIs and
corresponding algorithms in which there is expressed interest. Since
the previous list [RFC4051] was issued in 2005, significant new
cryptographic algorithms of interest to XML security, for some of
which the URI is only specified in this document, have been added.
This document obsoletes [RFC4051]. All of the URIs appear in the
indexes in Section 4. Only the URIs that were added by [RFC4051] or
this document have a subsection in Section 2 or 3, with the exception
of Minimal Canonicalization (Section 2.4), for example, use of
Eastlake Standards Track [Page 3]
^L
RFC 6931 Additional XML Security URIs April 2013
SHA-256 is defined in [XMLENC11] and hence there is no subsection on
that algorithm here, but its URI is included in the indexes in
Section 4.
Specification in this document of the URI representing an algorithm
does not imply endorsement of the algorithm for any particular
purpose. A protocol specification, which this is not, generally
gives algorithm and implementation requirements for the protocol.
Security considerations for algorithms are constantly evolving, as
documented elsewhere. This specification simply provides some URIs
and relevant formatting for when those URIs are used.
Note that progressing XML Digital Signature [RFC3275] along the
Standards Track required removal of any algorithms from the original
version [RFC3075] for which there was not demonstrated
interoperability. This required removal of the Minimal
Canonicalization algorithm, in which there appears to be continued
interest. The URI for Minimal Canonicalization was included in
[RFC4051] and is included here.
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
[RFC2119].
This document is not intended to change the algorithm implementation
requirements of any IETF or W3C document. Use of [RFC2119]
terminology is intended to be only such as is already stated or
implied by other authoritative documents.
1.2. Acronyms
The following acronyms are used in this document:
HMAC - Keyed-Hashing MAC [RFC2104]
IETF - Internet Engineering Task Force <www.ietf.org>
MAC - Message Authentication Code
MD - Message Digest
NIST - United States National Institute of Standards and Technology
<www.nist.gov>
RC - Rivest Cipher
Eastlake Standards Track [Page 4]
^L
RFC 6931 Additional XML Security URIs April 2013
RSA - Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman
SHA - Secure Hash Algorithm
URI - Uniform Resource Identifier [RFC3986]
W3C - World Wide Web Consortium <www.w3.org>
XML - eXtensible Markup Language
2. Algorithms
The URI [RFC3986] that was dropped from the XML Digital Signature
standard due to the transition from Proposed Standard to Draft
Standard [RFC3275] is included in Section 2.4 below with its original
http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#
prefix so as to avoid changing the XMLDSIG standard's namespace.
Additional algorithms in [RFC4051] were given URIs that start with
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#
while further algorithms added in this document are given URIs that
start with
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#
In addition, for ease of reference, this document includes in the
indexes in Section 4 many cryptographic algorithm URIs from several
XML security documents using the namespaces with which they are
defined in those documents. For example, 2000/09/xmldsig# for some
URIs specified in [RFC3275] and 2001/04/xmlenc# for some URIs
specified in [XMLENC10].
See also [XMLSECXREF].
2.1. DigestMethod (Hash) Algorithms
These algorithms are usable wherever a DigestMethod element occurs.
2.1.1. MD5
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#md5
Eastlake Standards Track [Page 5]
^L
RFC 6931 Additional XML Security URIs April 2013
The MD5 algorithm [RFC1321] takes no explicit parameters. An example
of an MD5 DigestAlgorithm element is:
<DigestAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#md5"/>
An MD5 digest is a 128-bit string. The content of the DigestValue
element SHALL be the base64 [RFC2045] encoding of this bit string
viewed as a 16-octet stream. See [RFC6151] for MD5 security
considerations.
2.1.2. SHA-224
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#sha224
The SHA-224 algorithm [FIPS180-4] [RFC6234] takes no explicit
parameters. An example of a SHA-224 DigestAlgorithm element is:
<DigestAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#sha224" />
A SHA-224 digest is a 224-bit string. The content of the DigestValue
element SHALL be the base64 [RFC2045] encoding of this string viewed
as a 28-octet stream.
2.1.3. SHA-384
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#sha384
The SHA-384 algorithm [FIPS180-4] takes no explicit parameters. An
example of a SHA-384 DigestAlgorithm element is:
<DigestAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#sha384" />
A SHA-384 digest is a 384-bit string. The content of the DigestValue

RFC 6931 Additional XML Security URIs April 2013
The Whirlpool algorithm [10118-3] takes no explicit parameters. A
Whirlpool digest is a 512-bit string. The content of the DigestValue

NIST has recently completed a hash function competition for an
alternative to the SHA family. The Keccak-f[1600] algorithm was
selected [Keccak] [SHA-3]. This hash function is commonly referred
to as "SHA-3", and this section is a space holder and reservation of
URIs for future information on Keccak use in XML security.
A SHA-3 224, 256, 384, and 512 digest is a 224-, 256-, 384-, and
512-bit string, respectively. The content of the DigestValue element
SHALL be the base64 [RFC2045] encoding of this string viewed as a
28-, 32-, 48-, and 64-octet stream, respectively.
2.2. SignatureMethod MAC Algorithms
This section covers SignatureMethod MAC (Message Authentication Code)
Algorithms.

conflict.
2.2.1. HMAC-MD5
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-md5
The HMAC algorithm [RFC2104] takes the truncation length in bits as a
parameter; if the parameter is not specified, then all the bits of
the hash are output. An example of an HMAC-MD5 SignatureMethod
element is as follows:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-md5">
<HMACOutputLength>112</HMACOutputLength>
</SignatureMethod>
Eastlake Standards Track [Page 7]

The output of the HMAC algorithm is ultimately the output (possibly
truncated) of the chosen digest algorithm. This value SHALL be
base64 [RFC2045] encoded in the same straightforward fashion as the
output of the digest algorithms. Example: the SignatureValue element
for the HMAC-MD5 digest

2.3. SignatureMethod Public-Key Signature Algorithms
These algorithms are distinguished from those in Section 2.2 above in
that they use public-key methods. That is to say, the verification
key is different from and not feasibly derivable from the signing
key.
2.3.1. RSA-MD5
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-md5
This implies the PKCS#1 v1.5 padding algorithm described in
[RFC3447]. An example of use is
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-md5" />
The SignatureValue content for an RSA-MD5 signature is the base64
[RFC2045] encoding of the octet string computed as per [RFC3447],
Section 8.2.1, signature generation for the RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5
signature scheme. As specified in the EMSA-PKCS1-V1_5-ENCODE
function in [RFC3447], Section 9.2, the value input to the signature
function MUST contain a pre-pended algorithm object identifier for
the hash function, but the availability of an ASN.1 parser and
recognition of OIDs is not required of a signature verifier. The
PKCS#1 v1.5 representation appears as:
CRYPT (PAD (ASN.1 (OID, DIGEST (data))))
Note that the padded ASN.1 will be of the following form:
01 | FF* | 00 | prefix | hash
Vertical bar ("|") represents concatenation. "01", "FF", and "00"
are fixed octets of the corresponding hexadecimal value, and the
asterisk ("*") after "FF" indicates repetition. "hash" is the MD5
digest of the data. "prefix" is the ASN.1 BER MD5 algorithm
designator prefix required in PKCS #1 [RFC3447], that is,
hex 30 20 30 0c 06 08 2a 86 48 86 f7 0d 02 05 05 00 04 10
This prefix is included to make it easier to use standard
cryptographic libraries. The FF octet MUST be repeated enough times
that the value of the quantity being CRYPTed is exactly one octet
shorter than the RSA modulus.
See [RFC6151] for MD5 security considerations.

2.3.2. RSA-SHA256
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha256
This implies the PKCS#1 v1.5 padding algorithm [RFC3447] as described
in Section 2.3.1, but with the ASN.1 BER SHA-256 algorithm designator
prefix. An example of use is
<SignatureMethod

2.3.3. RSA-SHA384
Identifier:

prefix. An example of use is
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha384" />
Because it takes about the same effort to calculate a SHA-384 message
digest as it does a SHA-512 message digest, it is suggested that
RSA-SHA512 be used in preference to RSA-SHA384 where possible.

The Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) [FIPS180-4] is
the elliptic curve analogue of the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA)
signature method, i.e., the Digital Signature Standard (DSS). It
takes no explicit parameters. For detailed specifications of how to
use it with SHA hash functions and XML Digital Signature, please see
[X9.62] and [RFC4050]. The #ecdsa-ripemd160 and #ecdsa-whirlpool
fragments in the new namespace identifies a signature method
processed in the same way as specified by the #ecdsa-sha1 fragment of
this namespace, with the exception that RIPEMD160 or Whirlpool is
used instead of SHA-1.
The output of the ECDSA algorithm consists of a pair of integers
usually referred by the pair (r, s). The signature value consists of
the base64 encoding of the concatenation of two octet streams that
respectively result from the octet-encoding of the values r and s in
that order. Conversion from integer to octet stream must be done
according to the I2OSP operation defined in the [RFC3447]
specification with the l parameter equal to the size of the base
point order of the curve in bytes (e.g., 32 for the P-256 curve and
66 for the P-521 curve [FIPS186-3]).
For an introduction to elliptic curve cryptographic algorithms, see
[RFC6090] and note the errata (Errata ID 2773-2777).

previous digital signature schemes, so ESIGN can be implemented on
smart cards without special co-processors.

2.3.8. RSA-Whirlpool
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#rsa-whirlpool
As in the definition of the RSA-SHA1 algorithm in [XMLDSIG11], the
designator "RSA" means the RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 algorithm as defined in
[RFC3447]. When identified through the #rsa-whirlpool fragment
identifier, Whirlpool is used as the hash algorithm instead. Use of
the ASN.1 BER Whirlpool algorithm designator is implied. That
designator is
hex 30 4e 30 0a 06 06 28 cf 06 03 00 37 05 00 04 40
as an explicit octet sequence. This corresponds to OID
1.0.10118.3.0.55 defined in [10118-3].

Identifiers:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#rsa-pss
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#MGF1
These identifiers imply the PKCS#1 EMSA-PSS encoding algorithm
[RFC3447]. The RSASSA-PSS algorithm takes the digest method (hash
function), a mask generation function, the salt length in bytes
(SaltLength), and the trailer field as explicit parameters.
Algorithm identifiers for hash functions specified in XML encryption
[XMLENC11] [XMLDSIG11] and in Section 2.1 are considered to be valid
algorithm identifiers for hash functions. According to [RFC3447],
the default value for the digest function is SHA-1, but due to the
discovered weakness of SHA-1 [RFC6194], it is recommended that
SHA-256 or a stronger hash function be used. Notwithstanding
[RFC3447], SHA-256 is the default to be used with these
SignatureMethod identifiers if no hash function has been specified.
The default salt length for these SignatureMethod identifiers if the
SaltLength is not specified SHALL be the number of octets in the hash
value of the digest method, as recommended in [RFC4055]. In a
parameterized RSASSA-PSS signature the ds:DigestMethod and the
SaltLength parameters usually appear. If they do not, the defaults
make this equivalent to
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#sha256-rsa-MGF1 (see Section
2.3.10). The TrailerField defaults to 1 (0xBC) when omitted.

2.3.10. RSASSA-PSS without Parameters
[RFC3447] currently specifies only one mask generation function MGF1
based on a hash function. Although [RFC3447] allows for
parameterization, the default is to use the same hash function as the
digest method function. Only this default approach is supported by
this section; therefore, the definition of a mask generation function
type is not needed yet. The same applies to the trailer field.
There is only one value (0xBC) specified in [RFC3447]. Hence, this
default parameter must be used for signature generation. The default
salt length is the length of the hash function.

RSA-SHA256 be used in preference to RSA-SHA224 where possible.
2.4. Minimal Canonicalization
Thus far, two independent interoperable implementations of Minimal

EncryptionMethod element using ARCFOUR is
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#arcfour">

http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#camellia192-cbc
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#camellia256-cbc
Camellia is a block cipher with the same interface as the AES
[Camellia] [RFC3713]; it has a 128-bit block size and 128-, 192-, and
256-bit key sizes. In XML encryption, Camellia is used in the same
way as the AES: it is used in the Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode
with a 128-bit initialization vector (IV). The resulting cipher text
is prefixed by the IV. If included in XML output, it is then base64
encoded. An example Camellia EncryptionMethod is as follows:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm=

^L
RFC 6931 Additional XML Security URIs April 2013
Camellia [Camellia] [RFC3713] key wrap is identical to the AES key
wrap algorithm [RFC3394] specified in the XML Encryption standard
with "AES" replaced by "Camellia". As with AES key wrap, the check
value is 0xA6A6A6A6A6A6A6A6.
The algorithm is the same whatever the size of the Camellia key used
in wrapping, called the "key encrypting key" or "KEK". If Camellia
is supported, it is particularly suggested that wrapping 128-bit keys
with a 128-bit KEK and wrapping 256-bit keys with a 256-bit KEK be
supported.
An example of use is:
<EncryptionMethod

2.6.5. SEED Block Encryption
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#seed128-cbc
SEED [RFC4269] is a 128-bit block size with 128-bit key sizes. In
XML Encryption, SEED can be used in the Cipher Block Chaining (CBC)
mode with a 128-bit initialization vector (IV). The resulting cipher
text is prefixed by the IV. If included in XML output, it is then
base64 encoded.
An example SEED EncryptionMethod is as follows:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#seed128-cbc" />
2.6.6. SEED Key Wrap
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#kw-seed128
Key wrapping with SEED is identical to Section 2.2.1 of [RFC3394]
with "AES" replaced by "SEED". The algorithm is specified in
[RFC4010]. The implementation of SEED is optional. The default
initial value is 0xA6A6A6A6A6A6A6A6.
An example of use is:

3. KeyInfo
In Section 3.1 below a new KeyInfo element child is specified, while
in Section 3.2 additional KeyInfo Type values for use in
RetrievalMethod are specified.
Eastlake Standards Track [Page 19]

RFC 6931 Additional XML Security URIs April 2013
3.1. PKCS #7 Bag of Certificates and CRLs
A PKCS #7 [RFC2315] "signedData" can also be used as a bag of
certificates and/or certificate revocation lists (CRLs). The
PKCS7signedData element is defined to accommodate such structures
within KeyInfo. The binary PKCS #7 structure is base64 [RFC2045]
encoded. Any signer information present is ignored. The following
is an example [RFC3092], eliding the base64 data:
<foo:PKCS7signedData
xmlns:foo="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more">
...
</foo:PKCS7signedData>
3.2. Additional RetrievalMethod Type Values
The Type attribute of RetrievalMethod is an optional identifier for
the type of data to be retrieved. The result of dereferencing a
RetrievalMethod reference for all KeyInfo types with an XML structure
is an XML element or document with that element as the root. The
various "raw" key information types return a binary value. Thus,
they require a Type attribute because they are not unambiguously

The initial "http://www.w3.org/" part of the URI is not included
above.
5. Allocation Considerations
W3C and IANA allocation considerations are given below.
5.1. W3C Allocation Considerations
As it is easy for people to construct their own unique URIs [RFC3986]
and, if appropriate, to obtain a URI from the W3C, it is not intended
that any additional "http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#" URIs be
created beyond those enumerated in this RFC. (W3C Namespace
stability rules prohibit the creation of new URIs under
"http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#" and URIs under
"http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#" were frozen with the
publication of [RFC4051].)
An "xmldsig-more" URI does not imply any official W3C or IETF status
for these algorithms or identifiers nor does it imply that they are
only useful in digital signatures. Currently, dereferencing such
URIs may or may not produce a temporary placeholder document.
Permission to use these URI prefixes has been given by the W3C.
Eastlake Standards Track [Page 27]
^L
RFC 6931 Additional XML Security URIs April 2013
5.2. IANA Considerations
IANA has established a registry entitled "XML Security URIs". The
initial contents correspond to Section 4.2 of this document with each
section number in the "Sec/Doc" column augmented with a reference to
this RFC (for example, "2.6.4" means "[RFC6931], Section 2.6.4").
New entries, including new Types, will be added based on Expert
Review [RFC5226]. Criterion for inclusion are (1) documentation
sufficient for interoperability of the algorithm or data type and the
XML syntax for its representation and use and (2) sufficient
importance as normally indicated by inclusion in (2a) an approved W3C
Note, Proposed Recommendation, or Recommendation or (2b) an approved
IETF Standards Track document. Typically, the registry will
reference a W3C or IETF document specifying such XML syntax; that
document will either contain a more abstract description of the
algorithm or data type or reference another document with a more
abstract description.
6. Security Considerations
This RFC is concerned with documenting the URIs that designate
algorithms and some data types used in connection with XML security.
The security considerations vary widely with the particular
algorithms, and the general security considerations for XML security
are outside of the scope of this document but appear in [XMLDSIG11],
[XMLENC11], [CANON10], [CANON11], and [GENERIC].
[RFC6151] should be consulted before considering the use of MD5 as a
DigestMethod or RSA-MD5 as a SignatureMethod.
See [RFC6194] for SHA-1 security considerations and [RFC6151] for MD5
security considerations.
Additional security considerations are given in connection with the
description of some algorithms in the body of this document.
Implementers should be aware that cryptographic algorithms become
weaker with time. As new cryptoanalysis techniques are developed and
computing performance improves, the work factor to break a particular
cryptographic algorithm will reduce. Therefore, cryptographic
implementations should be modular, allowing new algorithms to be
readily inserted. That is, implementers should be prepared for the
set of mandatory-to-implement algorithms to change over time.

Appendix A. Changes from RFC 4051
The following changes have been made in RFC 4051 to produce this
document.
1. Updated and added numerous RFC, W3C, and Internet-Draft
references.
2. Added #ecdsa-ripemd160, #whirlpool, #ecdsa-whirlpool,
#rsa-whirlpool, #seed128-cbc, and #kw-seed128.
3. Incorporated RFC 4051 errata [Errata191].
4. Added URI and fragment index sections.
5. For MD5 and SHA-1, added references to [RFC6151] and [RFC6194].
5. Added SHA-3 / Keccak placeholder section including #sha3-224,
#sha3-256, #sha3-384, and #sha3-512.
6. Added RSASSA-PSS sections including #sha3-224-MGF1,
#sha3-256-MGF1, #sha3-384-MGF1, #sha3-512-MGF1, #md2-rsa-MGF1,
#md5-rsa-MGF1, #sha1-rsa-MGF1, #sha224-rsa-MGF1,
#sha256-rsa-MGF1, #sha384-rsa-MGF1, #sha512-rsa-MGF1,
#ripemd128-rsa-MGF1, #ripemd160-rsa-MGF1, and
#whirlpool-rsa-MGF1.
7. Added new URIs from Canonical XML 1.1 and XML Encryption 1.1
including: #aes128-gcm, #aes192-gcm, #aes256-gc, #ConcatKDF,
#pbkdf, #rsa-oaep, #ECDH-ES, and #dh-es.
8. Added acronym subsection.
9. Added numerous URIs that are specified in W3C XML Security
documents to the Indexes. These do not have sections in the body
of this document -- for example, those for dsa-sha256, mgf1sha*,
decrypt#XML, and xmldsig-filter2.
10. Requested establishment of an IANA registry.
11. Made various editorial changes.
