Overview This document extends the input to the "get-bootstrapping-data" RPC defined in [RFC8572] to include an optional certificate signing request (CSR) [RFC2986], enabling a bootstrapping device to additionally obtain an identity certificate (e.g., an LDevID from [Std-802.1AR-2018]) as part of the "onboarding information" response provided in the RPC-reply. The ability to provision an identity certificate that is purpose- built for a production environment during the bootstrapping process removes reliance on the manufacturerCA,certificate authority (CA), and it also enables the bootstrapped device to join the production environment with an appropriate identity and other attributes in its identity certificate (e.g., an LDevID). Two YANG [RFC7950] modules are defined. The "ietf-ztp-types" module defines three YANG groupings for the various messages defined in this document. The "ietf-sztp-csr" module augments two groupings into the "get-bootstrapping-data" RPC and defines a YANG data structure [RFC8791] around the third grouping. 1.2. Terminology This document uses the following terms from [RFC8572]: * Bootstrap Server * Bootstrapping Data * Conveyed Information * Device * Manufacturer * Onboarding Information * Signed Data This document defines the following new terms: SZTP-client: The term "SZTP-client" refers to a "device" that is using a "bootstrap server" as a source of "bootstrapping data". SZTP-server: The term "SZTP-server" is an alternative term for "bootstrap server" that is symmetric with the "SZTP-client" term. 1.3. Requirements Language 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. 1.4. Conventions Various examples used in this document use a placeholder value for binary data that has been base64 encoded (e.g., "BASE64VALUE="). This placeholder value is used since real base64-encoded structures are often many lines long, and hence, distracting to the example being presented. 2. The "ietf-sztp-csr" Module The "ietf-sztp-csr" module is a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] module that augments the "ietf-sztp-bootstrap-server" module defined in [RFC8572] and defines a YANG "structure" that is to be conveyed in the "error- info" node defined in Section 7.1 of [RFC8040]. 2.1. Data Model Overview The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates the "ietf-sztp-csr" module. module: ietf-sztp-csr augment /sztp-svr:get-bootstrapping-data/sztp-svr:input: +---w (msg-type)? +--:(csr-support) | +---w csr-support | +---w key-generation! | | +---w supported-algorithms | | +---w algorithm-identifier* binary | +---w csr-generation | +---w supported-formats | +---w format-identifier* identityref +--:(csr) +---w (csr-type) +--:(p10-csr) | +---w p10-csr? ct:csr +--:(cmc-csr) | +---w cmc-csr? binary +--:(cmp-csr) +---w cmp-csr? binary structure csr-request: +-- key-generation! | +-- selected-algorithm | +-- algorithm-identifier binary +-- csr-generation | +-- selected-format | +-- format-identifier identityref +-- cert-req-info? ct:csr-info The augmentation defines two kinds of parameters that an SZTP-client can send to an SZTP-server. The YANG structure defines one collection of parameters that an SZTP-server can send to an SZTP- client. In the order of their intended use:*1. The"csr-support" node is used by theSZTP-clientto signalsends a "csr-support” node, encoded in a first “get-bootstrapping-data” request to theSZTP-serverSZTP-server, to indicate that it supports the ability to generate CSRs. This input parameter conveys if the SZTP-client is able to generate a new asymmetric key and, if so, which key algorithms it supports, as well as what kinds of CSR structures the SZTP-client is able to generate.*2. The"csr-request" structure is used by theSZTP-server responds with an error, containing the "csr- request” structure, to request the SZTP-client to generate a CSR. This structure is used to select the key algorithm theSZTP-clientSZTP- client should use to generate a new asymmetric key (if supported), the kind of CSR structure the SZTP-client should generate, and optionally the content for the CSR itself.*3. Thevarious "csr" nodes are used by theSZTP-clientto communicatesends one of the "*-csr” nodes, encoded in aCSRsecond “get-bootstrapping-data” request to the SZTP-server. This node encodes the server-requested CSR. 4. The SZTP-server responds with onboarding information to communicate the signed certificate to the SZTP-client. How to do this is discussed in Section 2.2. | No data model is defined, enabling an SZTP-server to | communicate the signed certificate to the SZTP-client. How to | do this is discussed in Section 2.2. To further illustrate how the augmentation and structure defined by the "ietf-sztp-csr" module are used, below are two additional tree diagrams showing these nodes placed where they are used. The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates SZTP's "get- bootstrapping-data" RPC with the augmentation in place. =============== NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 ================ module: ietf-sztp-bootstrap-server rpcs: +---x get-bootstrapping-data +---w input | +---w signed-data-preferred? empty | +---w hw-model? string | +---w os-name? string | +---w os-version? string | +---w nonce? binary | +---w (sztp-csr:msg-type)? | +--:(sztp-csr:csr-support) | | +---w sztp-csr:csr-support | | +---w sztp-csr:key-generation! | | | +---w sztp-csr:supported-algorithms | | | +---w sztp-csr:algorithm-identifier* bina\ ry | | +---w sztp-csr:csr-generation | | +---w sztp-csr:supported-formats | | +---w sztp-csr:format-identifier* identit\ yref | +--:(sztp-csr:csr) | +---w (sztp-csr:csr-type) | +--:(sztp-csr:p10-csr) | | +---w sztp-csr:p10-csr? ct:csr | +--:(sztp-csr:cmc-csr) | | +---w sztp-csr:cmc-csr? binary | +--:(sztp-csr:cmp-csr) | +---w sztp-csr:cmp-csr? binary +--ro output +--ro reporting-level? enumeration {onboarding-server}? +--ro conveyed-information cms +--ro owner-certificate? cms +--ro ownership-voucher? cms The following tree diagram [RFC8340] illustrates RESTCONF's "errors" RPC-reply message with the "csr-request" structure in place. module: ietf-restconf +--ro errors +--ro error* [] +--ro error-type enumeration +--ro error-tag string +--ro error-app-tag? string +--ro error-path? instance-identifier +--ro error-message? string +--ro error-info +--ro sztp-csr:csr-request +--ro sztp-csr:key-generation! | +--ro sztp-csr:selected-algorithm | +--ro sztp-csr:algorithm-identifier binary +--ro sztp-csr:csr-generation | +--ro sztp-csr:selected-format | +--ro sztp-csr:format-identifier identityref +--ro sztp-csr:cert-req-info? ct:csr-info 2.2. Example Usage | The examples below are encoded using JSON, but they could | equally well be encoded using XML, as is supported by SZTP. An SZTP-client implementing this specification would signal to the bootstrap server its willingness to generate a CSR by including the "csr-support" node in its "get-bootstrapping-data" RPC. In the example below, the SZTP-client additionally indicates that it is able to generate keys and provides a list of key algorithms it supports, as well as provide a list of certificate formats it supports. REQUEST =============== NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 ================ POST /restconf/operations/ietf-sztp-bootstrap-server:get-bootstrappi\ ng-data HTTP/1.1 HOST: example.com Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-sztp-bootstrap-server:input" : { "hw-model": "model-x", "os-name": "vendor-os", "os-version": "17.3R2.1", "nonce": "extralongbase64encodedvalue=", "ietf-sztp-csr:csr-support": { "key-generation": { "supported-algorithms": { "algorithm-identifier": [ "BASE64VALUE1", "BASE64VALUE2", "BASE64VALUE3" ] } }, "csr-generation": { "supported-formats": { "format-identifier": [ "ietf-ztp-types:p10-csr", "ietf-ztp-types:cmc-csr", "ietf-ztp-types:cmp-csr" ] } } } } } Assuming the SZTP-server wishes to prompt the SZTP-client to provide a CSR, then it would respond with an HTTP 400 Bad Request error code. In the example below, the SZTP-server specifies that it wishes the SZTP-client to generate a key using a specific algorithm and generate a PKCS#10-based CSR containing specific content. RESPONSE HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request Date: Sat, 31 Oct 2021 17:02:40 GMT Server: example-server Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-restconf:errors" : { "error" : [ { "error-type": "application", "error-tag": "missing-attribute", "error-message": "Missing input parameter", "error-info": { "ietf-sztp-csr:csr-request": { "key-generation": { "selected-algorithm": { "algorithm-identifier": "BASE64VALUE=" } }, "csr-generation": { "selected-format": { "format-identifier": "ietf-ztp-types:p10-csr" } }, "cert-req-info": "BASE64VALUE=" } } } ] } } Upon being prompted to provide a CSR, the SZTP-client would POST another "get-bootstrapping-data" request but this time including one of the "csr" nodes to convey its CSR to the SZTP-server: REQUEST =============== NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 ================ POST /restconf/operations/ietf-sztp-bootstrap-server:get-bootstrappi\ ng-data HTTP/1.1 HOST: example.com Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-sztp-bootstrap-server:input" : { "hw-model": "model-x", "os-name": "vendor-os", "os-version": "17.3R2.1", "nonce": "extralongbase64encodedvalue=", "ietf-sztp-csr:p10-csr": "BASE64VALUE=" } } At this point, it is expected that the SZTP-server, perhaps in conjunction with other systems, such as a backend CA or registration authority (RA), will validate the CSR's origin and proof-of- possession and, assuming the CSR is approved, issue a signed certificate for the bootstrapping device. The SZTP-server responds with"onboarding-information" (encoded inside the "conveyed-information" node,conveyed information (the "conveyed- information" node shown below) that encodes "onboarding-information" (inside the base64 value) containing a signed identity certificate for the CSR provided by the SZTP-client: RESPONSE HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 31 Oct 2021 17:02:40 GMT Server: example-server Content-Type: application/yang-data+json { "ietf-sztp-bootstrap-server:output" : { "reporting-level": "verbose", "conveyed-information": "BASE64VALUE=" } } How the signed certificate is conveyed inside the onboarding information is outside the scope of this document. Some implementations may choose to convey it inside a script (e.g., SZTP's "pre-configuration-script"), while other implementations may choose to convey it inside the SZTP "configuration" node. SZTP onboarding information is described in Section 2.2 of [RFC8572]. Below are two examples of conveying the signed certificate inside the "configuration" node. Both examples assume that the SZTP-client understands the "ietf-keystore" module defined in [RFC9642]. This first example illustrates the case where the signed certificate is for the same asymmetric key used by the SZTP-client's manufacturer-generated identity certificate (e.g., an Initial Device Identifier (IDevID) from [Std-802.1AR-2018]). As such, the configuration needs to associate the newly signed certificate with the existing asymmetric key: =============== NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 ================ { "ietf-keystore:keystore": { "asymmetric-keys": { "asymmetric-key": [ { "name": "Manufacturer-Generated Hidden Key", "public-key-format": "ietf-crypto-types:subject-public-key\ -info-format", "public-key": "BASE64VALUE=", "hidden-private-key": [null], "certificates": { "certificate": [ { "name": "Manufacturer-Generated IDevID Cert", "cert-data": "BASE64VALUE=" }, { "name": "Newly-Generated LDevID Cert", "cert-data": "BASE64VALUE=" } ] } } ] } } } This second example illustrates the case where the signed certificate is for a newly generated asymmetric key. As such, the configuration needs to associate the newly signed certificate with the newly generated asymmetric key: =============== NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 ================ { "ietf-keystore:keystore": { "asymmetric-keys": { "asymmetric-key": [ { "name": "Manufacturer-Generated Hidden Key", "public-key-format": "ietf-crypto-types:subject-public-key\ -info-format", "public-key": "BASE64VALUE=", "hidden-private-key": [null], "certificates": { "certificate": [ { "name": "Manufacturer-Generated IDevID Cert", "cert-data": "BASE64VALUE=" } ] } }, { "name": "Newly-Generated Hidden Key", "public-key-format": "ietf-crypto-types:subject-public-key\ -info-format", "public-key": "BASE64VALUE=", "hidden-private-key": [null], "certificates": { "certificate": [ { "name": "Newly-Generated LDevID Cert", "cert-data": "BASE64VALUE=" } ] } } ] } } } In addition to configuring the signed certificate, it is often necessary to also configure the issuer's signing certificate so that the device (i.e., STZP-client) can authenticate certificates presented by peer devices signed by the same issuer as its own. While outside the scope of this document, one way to do this would be to use the "ietf-truststore" module defined in [RFC9641]. 2.3. YANG Module This module augments an RPC defined in [RFC8572]. The module uses data types and groupings defined in [RFC8572], [RFC8791], and [RFC9640].

Security Considerations This document builds on top of the solution presented in [RFC8572], and therefore all the security considerations discussed in [RFC8572] apply here as well. For the various CSR formats, when using PKCS#10, the security considerations in [RFC2986] apply; when using CMP, the security considerations in [RFC4210] apply; and when using CMC, the security considerations in [RFC5272] apply. For the various authentication mechanisms, when using TLS-level authentication, the security considerations in [RFC8446] apply, and when using HTTP-level authentication, the security considerations in[RFC7235][RFC9110] apply. 4.1. SZTP-Client Considerations 4.1.1. Ensuring the Integrity of Asymmetric Private Keys The private key the SZTP-client uses for the dynamically generated identity certificate MUST be protected from inadvertent disclosure in order to prevent identity fraud. The security of this private key is essential in order to ensure the associated identity certificate can be used to authenticate the device it is issued to. It is RECOMMENDED that devices are manufactured with a hardware security module (HSM), such as a trusted platform module (TPM), to generate and contain the private key within the security perimeter of the HSM. In such cases, the private key and its associated certificates MAY have long validity periods. In cases where the SZTP-client does not possess an HSM or is unable to use an HSM to protect the private key, it is RECOMMENDED to periodically reset the private key (and associated identity certificates) in order to minimize the lifetime of unprotected private keys. For instance, anNMSNetwork Management System (NMS) controller/orchestrator application could periodically prompt the SZTP-client to generate a new private key and provide a certificate signing request (CSR) or, alternatively, push both the key and an identity certificate to the SZTP-client using, e.g., a PKCS#12 message [RFC7292]. In another example, the SZTP-client could be configured to periodically reset the configuration to its factory default, thus causing removal of the private key and associated identity certificates and re-execution of the SZTP protocol. 4.1.2. Reuse of a Manufacturer-Generated Private Key It is RECOMMENDED that a new private key is generated for each CSR described in this document. Implementations must randomly generate nonces and private keys. The use of inadequate pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs) to generate cryptographic keys can result in little or no security. An attacker may find it much easier to reproduce the PRNG environment that produced the keys, searching the resulting small set of possibilities, rather than brute force searching the whole key space. As an example of predictable random numbers, see CVE-2008-0166 [CVE-2008-0166], and some consequences of low-entropy random numbers are discussed in "Mining Your Ps and Qs" [MiningPsQs]. The generation of quality random numbers is difficult. [ISO.20543-2019], [NIST.SP.800-90Ar1], BSI AIS 31 [AIS31], BCP 106 [RFC4086], and others offer valuable guidance in this area. This private key SHOULD be protected as well as the built-in private key associated with the SZTP-client's initial device identity certificate (e.g., the IDevID from [Std-802.1AR-2018]). In cases where it is not possible to generate a new private key that is protected as well as the built-in private key, it is RECOMMENDED to reuse the built-in private key rather than generate a new private key that is not as well protected. 4.1.3. Replay Attack Protection This RFC enables an SZTP-client to announce an ability to generate a new key to use for its CSR. When the SZTP-server responds with a request for the SZTP-client to generate a new key, it is essential that the SZTP-client actually generates a new key. Generating a new key each time enables the random bytes used to create the key to also serve the dual-purpose of acting like a "nonce" used in other mechanisms to detect replay attacks. When a fresh public/private key pair is generated for the request, confirmation to the SZTP-client that the response has not been replayed is enabled by the SZTP-client's fresh public key appearing in the signed certificate provided by the SZTP-server. When a public/private key pair associated with the manufacturer- generated identity certificate (e.g., IDevID) is used for the request, there may not be confirmation to the SZTP-client that the response has not been replayed; however, the worst case result is a lost certificate that is associated to the private key known only to the SZTP-client. Protection of the private-key information is vital to public-key cryptography. Disclosure of the private-key material to another entity can lead to masquerades. 4.1.4. Connecting to an Untrusted Bootstrap Server [RFC8572] allows SZTP-clients to connect to untrusted SZTP-servers by blindly authenticating the SZTP-server's TLS end-entity certificate. As is discussed in Section 9.5 of [RFC8572], in such cases, the SZTP- client MUST assert that the bootstrapping data returned is signed if the SZTP-client is to trust it. However, the HTTP error message used in this document cannot be signed data, as described in [RFC8572]. Therefore, the solution presented in this document cannot be used when the SZTP-client connects to an untrusted SZTP-server. Consistent with the recommendation presented in Section 9.6 of [RFC8572], SZTP-clients SHOULD NOT pass the "csr-support" input parameter to an untrusted SZTP-server. SZTP-clients SHOULD instead pass the "signed-data-preferred" input parameter, as discussed in Appendix B of [RFC8572]. 4.1.5. Selecting the Best Origin Authentication Mechanism The origin of the CSR must be verified before a certificate is issued. When generating a new key, it is important that the SZTP-client be able to provide additional proof that it was the entity that generated the key. The CMP and CMC certificate request formats defined in this document support origin authentication. A raw PKCS#10 CSR does not support origin authentication. The CMP and CMC request formats support origin authentication using both PKI and a shared secret. Typically, only one possible origin authentication mechanism can possibly be used, but in the case that the SZTP-client authenticates itself using both TLS-level (e.g., IDevID) and HTTP-level credentials (e.g., Basic), as is allowed by Section 5.3 of [RFC8572], then the SZTP-client may need to choose between the two options. In the case that the SZTP-client must choose between an asymmetric key option versus a shared secret for origin authentication, it is RECOMMENDED that the SZTP-client choose using the asymmetric key. 4.1.6. Clearing the Private Key and Associated Certificate Unlike a manufacturer-generated identity certificate (e.g., IDevID), the deployment-generated identity certificate (e.g., LDevID) and the associated private key (assuming a new private key was generated for the purpose) are considered user data and SHOULD be cleared whenever the SZTP-client is reset to its factory default state, such as by the "factory-reset" RPC defined in [RFC8808]. 4.2. SZTP-Server Considerations 4.2.1. Verifying Proof-of-Possession Regardless, if using a new asymmetric key or the bootstrapping device's manufacturer-generated key (e.g., the IDevID key), the public key is placed in the CSR and the CSR is signed by that private key. Proof-of-possession of the private key is verified by ensuring the signature over the CSR using the public key placed in the CSR. 4.2.2. Verifying Proof-of-Origin When the bootstrapping device's manufacturer-generated private key (e.g., the IDevID key) is reused for the CSR, proof-of-origin is verified by validating the IDevID-issuer cert and ensuring that the CSR uses the same key pair. When the bootstrapping device's manufacturer-generated private key (e.g., an IDevID key from IEEE 802.1AR) is reused for the CSR, proof- of-origin is verified by validating the IDevID certification path and ensuring that the CSR uses the same key pair. When a fresh asymmetric key is used with the CMP or CMC formats, the authentication is part of the protocols, which could employ either the manufacturer-generated private key or a shared secret. In addition, CMP and CMC support processing by an RA before the request is passed to the CA, which allows for more robust handling of errors. 4.2.3. Supporting SZTP-Clients That Don't Trust the SZTP-Server [RFC8572] allows SZTP-clients to connect to untrusted SZTP-servers by blindly authenticating the SZTP-server's TLS end-entity certificate. As is recommended in Section 4.1.4 of this document, in such cases, SZTP-clients SHOULD pass the "signed-data-preferred" input parameter. The reciprocal of this statement is that SZTP-servers, wanting to support SZTP-clients that don't trust them, SHOULD support the "signed-data-preferred" input parameter, as discussed in Appendix B of [RFC8572]. 4.3. Security Considerations for the "ietf-sztp-csr" YANG Module The recommended format for documenting the security considerations for YANG modules is described in Section 3.7 of [RFC8407]. However, this module only augments two input parameters into the "get- bootstrapping-data" RPC in [RFC8572] and therefore only needs to point to the relevant Security Considerations sections in that RFC. * Security considerations for the "get-bootstrapping-data" RPC are described in Section 9.16 of [RFC8572]. * Security considerations for the "input" parameters passed inside the "get-bootstrapping-data" RPC are described in Section 9.6 of [RFC8572]. 4.4. Security Considerations for the "ietf-ztp-types" YANG Module The recommended format for documenting the security considerations for YANG modules is described in Section 3.7 of [RFC8407]. However, this module does not define any protocol-accessible nodes (it only defines "identity" and "grouping" statements), and therefore there are no security considerations to report. 5. IANA Considerations 5.1. The IETF XML Registry IANA has registered two URIs in the "ns" registry of the "IETF XML Registry" [RFC3688] maintained at <https://www.iana.org/assignments/ xml-registry/>.
