BGPsec Algorithms, Key Formats, and Signature Formats
Abstract
This document specifies the algorithms, algorithm parameters,
asymmetric key formats, asymmetric key sizes, and signature formats
used in BGPsec (Border Gateway Protocol Security). This document
updates RFC 7935 ("The Profile for Algorithms and Key Sizes for Use
in the Resource Public Key Infrastructure") and obsoletes RFC 8208
("BGPsec Algorithms, Key Formats, and Signature Formats") by adding
Documentation and Experimentation Algorithm IDs, correcting the range
of unassigned algorithms IDs to fill the complete range, and
restructuring the document for better reading.
This document also includes example BGPsec UPDATE messages as well as
the private keys used to generate the messages and the certificates
necessary to validate those signatures.

1. Introduction
This document specifies the following:
o the digital signature algorithm and parameters,
o the hash algorithm and parameters,
o the algorithm identifier assignment and classification,
o the public and private key formats, and
o the signature formats
used by Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) Certification
Authorities (CAs) and BGPsec (Border Gateway Protocol Security)
speakers (i.e., routers). CAs use these algorithms when processing
requests for BGPsec Router Certificates [RFC8209]. Examples of when
BGPsec routers use these algorithms include requesting BGPsec
certificates [RFC8209], signing BGPsec UPDATE messages [RFC8205], and
verifying signatures on BGPsec UPDATE messages [RFC8205].
This document updates [RFC7935] to add support for a) a different
algorithm for BGPsec certificate requests, which are issued only by
BGPsec speakers; b) a different Subject Public Key Info format for
BGPsec certificates, which is needed for the specified BGPsec
signature algorithm; and c) different signature formats for BGPsec
signatures, which are needed for the specified BGPsec signature
algorithm. The BGPsec certificates are differentiated from other
RPKI certificates by the use of the BGPsec Extended Key Usage as
defined in [RFC8209]. BGPsec uses a different algorithm [RFC6090]
[DSS] from the rest of the RPKI to provide similar security with
smaller keys, making the certificates smaller; these algorithms also
result in smaller signatures, which make the PDUs smaller.
Appendix A (non-normative) contains example BGPsec UPDATE messages as
well as the private keys used to generate the messages and the
certificates necessary to validate the signatures.
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. Changes from RFC 8208
This section describes the significant changes between [RFC8208] and
this document.
o Added Section 2.1 containing Algorithm ID types. Also, the
interpretation of these IDs is described.
o Restructured Sections 2 and 3 to align with the corresponding
algorithm suite identifier value.
o Corrected the range for unassigned algorithm suite identifier
values.
o Added Documentation algorithm suite identifier values.
o Added Experimentation algorithm suite identifier values.
o Changed the next-hop IP in Appendix A's IPv6 example to use a
private usage IPv6 address.
2. Algorithms
The algorithms used to compute signatures on CA certificates, BGPsec
Router Certificates, and Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) are as
specified in Section 2 of [RFC7935]. This section addresses
algorithms used by BGPsec [RFC8205] [DSS]. For example, these
algorithms are used by BGPsec routers to sign and verify BGPsec
UPDATE messages. To identify which algorithm is used, the BGPsec
UPDATE message contains the corresponding algorithm ID in each
Signature_Block of the BGPsec UPDATE message.
2.1. Algorithm ID Types
Algorithms in BGPsec UPDATE messages are identified by the Algorithm
Suite Identifier field (algorithm ID) within the Signature_Block (see
Section 3.2 of [RFC8205]).
This document specifies five types of Algorithm IDs:
o Reserved Algorithm ID
Reserved algorithm IDs are the values 0x00 (0) and 0xFF (255).
These IDs MUST NOT be used in a Signature_Block, and if
encountered, the router MUST treat BGPsec UPDATE messages as
malformed [RFC4271].
o Signature Algorithm ID
Signature algorithms are defined in Section 2.2 of this document.
Processing of BGPsec UPDATE signing and validation using signature
algorithms is described at length in Sections 4.2 and 5.2 of
[RFC8205].
o Unassigned Algorithm ID
This type of Algorithm ID is free for future assignments and MUST
NOT be used until an algorithm is officially assigned (see
Section 7). In case a router encounters an unassigned algorithm
ID in one of the Signature_Blocks of a BGPsec UPDATE message, the
router SHOULD process the Signature_Block as an unsupported
algorithm as specified in Section 5.2 of [RFC8205].
o Experimentation Algorithm ID
Experimentation algorithm IDs span from 0xF7 (247) to 0xFA (250).
To allow experimentation to accurately describe deployment
examples, the use of publicly assigned algorithm IDs is
inappropriate, and a reserved block of Experimentation algorithm
IDs is required. This ensures that experimentation does not clash
with assigned algorithm IDs in deployed networks and mitigates the
risks to operational integrity of the network through
inappropriate use of experimentation to perform literal
configuration of routing elements on production systems. A router
that encounters an algorithm ID of this type outside of an
experimental network SHOULD treat it the same as an unsupported
algorithm as specified in Section 5.2 of [RFC8205].
o Documentation Algorithm ID
Documentation algorithm IDs span from 0xFB (251) to 0xFE (254).
To allow documentation to accurately describe deployment examples,
the use of publicly assigned algorithm IDs is inappropriate, and a
reserved block of Documentation algorithm IDs is required. This
ensures that documentation does not clash with assigned algorithm
IDs in deployed networks and mitigates the risks to operational
integrity of the network through inappropriate use of
documentation to perform literal configuration of routing elements
on production systems. A router that encounters an algorithm ID
of this type SHOULD treat it the same as an unsupported algorithm
as specified in Section 5.2 of [RFC8205].
2.2. Signature Algorithms
2.2.1. Algorithm ID 0x01 (1) - (ECDSA P-256)
o The signature algorithm used MUST be the Elliptic Curve Digital
Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) with curve P-256 [RFC6090] [DSS].
o The hash algorithm used MUST be SHA-256 [SHS].
Hash algorithms are not identified by themselves in certificates or
BGPsec UPDATE messages. They are represented by an OID that combines
the hash algorithm with the digital signature algorithm as follows:
o The ecdsa-with-SHA256 OID [RFC5480] MUST appear in the Public-Key
Cryptography Standards #10 (PKCS #10) signatureAlgorithm field
[RFC2986] or in the Certificate Request Message Format (CRMF)
POPOSigningKey algorithm field [RFC4211]; where the OID is placed
depends on the certificate request format generated.
o In BGPsec UPDATE messages, the ECDSA with SHA-256 algorithm suite
identifier value 0x01 (1) (see Section 7) is included in the
Signature_Block List's Algorithm Suite Identifier field.
3. Asymmetric Key Pair Formats
The key formats used to compute signatures on CA certificates, BGPsec
Router Certificates, and CRLs are as specified in Section 3 of
[RFC7935]. This section addresses key formats found in the BGPsec
Router Certificate requests and in BGPsec Router Certificates.
3.1. Asymmetric Key Pair for Algorithm ID 0x01 (1) - (ECDSA P-256)
The ECDSA private keys used to compute signatures for certificate
requests and BGPsec UPDATE messages MUST be associated with the P-256
elliptic curve domain parameters [RFC5480]. The public key pair MUST
use the uncompressed form.
3.1.1. Public Key Format
The Subject's public key is included in subjectPublicKeyInfo
[RFC5280]. It has two sub-fields: algorithm and subjectPublicKey.
The values for the structures and their sub-structures follow:
o algorithm (an AlgorithmIdentifier type): The id-ecPublicKey OID
MUST be used in the algorithm field, as specified in Section 2.1.1
of [RFC5480]. The value for the associated parameters MUST be
secp256r1, as specified in Section 2.1.1.1 of [RFC5480].
o subjectPublicKey: ECPoint MUST be used to encode the certificate's
subjectPublicKey field, as specified in Section 2.2 of [RFC5480].
3.1.2. Private Key Format
Local policy determines private key format.
4. Signature Formats
The structure for the certificate's and CRL's signature field MUST be
as specified in Section 4 of [RFC7935]; this is the same format used
by other RPKI certificates. The structure for the certification
request's and BGPsec UPDATE message's signature field MUST be as
specified in Section 2.2.3 of [RFC3279].
5. Additional Requirements
It is anticipated that BGPsec will require the adoption of updated
key sizes and a different set of signature and hash algorithms over
time, in order to maintain an acceptable level of cryptographic
security. This profile should be updated to specify such future
requirements, when appropriate.
The recommended procedures to implement such a transition of key
sizes and algorithms are specified in [RFC6916].
6. Security Considerations
The security considerations of [RFC3279], [RFC5480], [RFC6090],
[RFC7935], and [RFC8209] apply to certificates. The security
considerations of [RFC3279], [RFC6090], [RFC7935], and [RFC8209]
apply to certification requests. The security considerations of
[RFC3279], [RFC6090], and [RFC8205] apply to BGPsec UPDATE messages.
No new security considerations are introduced as a result of this
specification.
7. IANA Considerations
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has created the
"BGPsec Algorithm Suites" registry in the Resource Public Key
Infrastructure (RPKI) group. The one-octet algorithm suite
identifiers assigned by IANA identify the digest algorithm and
signature algorithm used in the BGPsec Signature_Block List's
Algorithm Suite Identifier field.
Per [RFC8208], IANA registered a single algorithm suite identifier
for the digest algorithm SHA-256 [SHS] and for the signature
algorithm ECDSA on the P-256 curve [RFC6090] [DSS]. This identifier
is still valid, and IANA has updated the registration to refer to
this document.
IANA has modified the range of the "Unassigned" address space from
"0x2-0xEF" to "0x02-0xF6":
Algorithm Digest Signature Specification
Suite Algorithm Algorithm Pointer
Identifier
+------------+---------------+--------------+-----------------------+
| 0x02-0xF6 | Unassigned | Unassigned | |
+------------+---------------+--------------+-----------------------+
In addition, IANA has registered the following address spaces for
"Experimentation" and "Documentation":
Algorithm Digest Signature Specification
Suite Algorithm Algorithm Pointer
Identifier
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
| 0xF7-0xFA | Experimentation | Experimentation | This document |
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
| 0xFB-0xFE | Documentation | Documentation | This document |
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
The "BGPsec Algorithm Suites" registry in the RPKI group now contains
the following values:
Algorithm Digest Signature Specification
Suite Algorithm Algorithm Pointer
Identifier
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
| 0x00 | Reserved | Reserved | This document |
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
| 0x01 | SHA-256 | ECDSA P-256 | [SHS] [DSS] |
| | | | [RFC6090] |
| | | | This document |
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
| 0x02-0xF6 | Unassigned | Unassigned | |
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
| 0xF7-0xFA | Experimentation | Experimentation | This document |
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
| 0xFB-0xFE | Documentation | Documentation | This document |
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
| 0xFF | Reserved | Reserved | This document |
+------------+-----------------+-----------------+------------------+
Future assignments are to be made using the Standards Action process
defined in [RFC8126]. Assignments consist of the one-octet algorithm
suite identifier value and the associated digest algorithm name and
signature algorithm name.
