     Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure: Additional Algorithm
           Identifiers for RSASSA-PSS and ECDSA Using SHAKEs

Abstract

   Digital signatures are used to sign messages, X.509 certificates, and
   Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs).  This document updates the
   "Algorithms and Identifiers for the Internet X.509 Public Key
   Infrastructure Certificate and Certificate Revocation List (CRL)
   Profile" (RFC 3279) and describes the conventions for using the SHAKE
   function family in Internet X.509 certificates and revocation lists
   as one-way hash functions with the RSA Probabilistic signature and
   Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) signature
   algorithms.  The conventions for the associated subject public keys
   are also described.

1.  Introduction

   [RFC3279] defines cryptographic algorithm identifiers for the
   "Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificate and Certificate
   Revocation List (CRL) Profile" [RFC5280].  This document updates RFC
   3279 and defines identifiers for several cryptographic algorithms
   that use variable-length output SHAKE functions introduced in [SHA3]
   which can be used with RFC 5280.

   In the SHA-3 family, two extendable-output functions (SHAKEs) are
   defined: SHAKE128 and SHAKE256.  Four other hash function instances,
   SHA3-224, SHA3-256, SHA3-384, and SHA3-512, are also defined but are
   out of scope for this document.  A SHAKE is a variable-length hash
   function defined as SHAKE(M, d) where the output is a d-bits-long
   digest of message M.  The corresponding collision and second-
   preimage-resistance strengths for SHAKE128 are min(d/2, 128) and
   min(d, 128) bits, respectively (see Appendix A.1 of [SHA3]).  And the
   corresponding collision and second-preimage-resistance strengths for
   SHAKE256 are min(d/2, 256) and min(d, 256) bits, respectively.

   A SHAKE can be used as the message digest function (to hash the
   message to be signed) in RSA Probabilistic Signature Scheme (RSASSA-
   PSS) [RFC8017] and ECDSA [X9.62] and as the hash in the mask
   generation function (MGF) in RSASSA-PSS.

2.  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.

3.  Identifiers

   This section defines four new object identifiers (OIDs), for RSASSA-
   PSS and ECDSA with each of SHAKE128 and SHAKE256.  The same algorithm
   identifiers can be used for identifying a public key in RSASSA-PSS.

   The new identifiers for RSASSA-PSS signatures using SHAKEs are below.

     id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE128  OBJECT IDENTIFIER  ::=  { iso(1)
               identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1)
               security(5) mechanisms(5) pkix(7) algorithms(6)
               30 }

     id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE256  OBJECT IDENTIFIER  ::=  { iso(1)
               identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1)
               security(5) mechanisms(5) pkix(7) algorithms(6)
               31 }

   The new algorithm identifiers of ECDSA signatures using SHAKEs are
   below.

     id-ecdsa-with-shake128 OBJECT IDENTIFIER  ::=  { iso(1)
               identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1)
               security(5) mechanisms(5) pkix(7) algorithms(6)
               32 }

     id-ecdsa-with-shake256 OBJECT IDENTIFIER  ::=  { iso(1)
               identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1)
               security(5) mechanisms(5) pkix(7) algorithms(6)
               33 }

   The parameters for the four identifiers above MUST be absent.  That
   is, the identifier SHALL be a SEQUENCE of one component: the OID.

   Sections 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 specify the required output length for each
   use of SHAKE128 or SHAKE256 in RSASSA-PSS and ECDSA.  In summary,
   when hashing messages to be signed, output lengths of SHAKE128 and
   SHAKE256 are 256 and 512 bits, respectively.  When the SHAKEs are
   used as MGFs in RSASSA-PSS, their output length is (8*ceil((n-1)/8) -
   264) or (8*ceil((n-1)/8) - 520) bits, respectively, where n is the
   RSA modulus size in bits.

4.  Use in PKIX

4.1.  Signatures

   Signatures are used in a number of different ASN.1 structures.  As
   shown in the ASN.1 representation from [RFC5280] below, in an X.509
   certificate, a signature is encoded with an algorithm identifier in
   the signatureAlgorithm attribute and a signatureValue attribute that
   contains the actual signature.

      Certificate  ::=  SEQUENCE  {
         tbsCertificate       TBSCertificate,
         signatureAlgorithm   AlgorithmIdentifier,
         signatureValue       BIT STRING  }

   The identifiers defined in Section 3 can be used as the
   AlgorithmIdentifier in the signatureAlgorithm field in the sequence
   Certificate and the signature field in the sequence TBSCertificate in
   X.509 [RFC5280].  The parameters of these signature algorithms are
   absent, as explained in Section 3.

   Conforming Certification Authority (CA) implementations MUST specify
   the algorithms explicitly by using the OIDs specified in Section 3
   when encoding RSASSA-PSS or ECDSA with SHAKE signatures in
   certificates and CRLs.  Conforming client implementations that
   process certificates and CRLs using RSASSA-PSS or ECDSA with SHAKE
   MUST recognize the corresponding OIDs.  Encoding rules for RSASSA-PSS
   and ECDSA signature values are specified in [RFC4055] and [RFC5480],
   respectively.

   When using RSASSA-PSS or ECDSA with SHAKEs, the RSA modulus and ECDSA
   curve order SHOULD be chosen in line with the SHAKE output length.
   Refer to Section 6 for more details.

4.1.1.  RSASSA-PSS Signatures

   The RSASSA-PSS algorithm is defined in [RFC8017].  When id-RSASSA-
   PSS-SHAKE128 or id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE256 (specified in Section 3) is
   used, the encoding MUST omit the parameters field.  That is, the
   AlgorithmIdentifier SHALL be a SEQUENCE of one component: id-RSASSA-
   PSS-SHAKE128 or id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE256.  [RFC4055] defines RSASSA-
   PSS-params that is used to define the algorithms and inputs to the
   algorithm.  This specification does not use parameters because the
   hash, mask generation algorithm, trailer, and salt are embedded in
   the OID definition.

   The hash algorithm to hash a message being signed and the hash
   algorithm used as the MGF in RSASSA-PSS MUST be the same: both
   SHAKE128 or both SHAKE256.  The output length of the hash algorithm
   that hashes the message SHALL be 32 bytes (for SHAKE128) or 64 bytes
   (for SHAKE256).

   The MGF takes an octet string of variable length and a desired output
   length as input and outputs an octet string of the desired length.
   In RSASSA-PSS with SHAKEs, the SHAKEs MUST be used natively as the
   MGF, instead of the MGF1 algorithm that uses the hash function in
   multiple iterations, as specified in Appendix B.2.1 of [RFC8017].  In
   other words, the MGF is defined as the SHAKE128 or SHAKE256 output of
   the mgfSeed for id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE128 and id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE256,
   respectively.  The mgfSeed is the seed from which the mask is
   generated, an octet string [RFC8017].  As explained in Step 9 of
   Section 9.1.1 of [RFC8017], the output length of the MGF is emLen -
   hLen - 1 bytes. emLen is the maximum message length ceil((n-1)/8),
   where n is the RSA modulus in bits. hLen is 32 and 64 bytes for id-
   RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE128 and id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE256, respectively.  Thus,
   when SHAKE is used as the MGF, the SHAKE output length maskLen is
   (8*emLen - 264) or (8*emLen - 520) bits, respectively.  For example,
   when RSA modulus n is 2048 bits, the output length of SHAKE128 or
   SHAKE256 as the MGF will be 1784 or 1528 bits when id-RSASSA-PSS-
   SHAKE128 or id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE256 is used, respectively.

   The RSASSA-PSS saltLength MUST be 32 bytes for id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE128
   or 64 bytes for id-RSASSA-PSS-SHAKE256.  Finally, the trailerField
   MUST be 1, which represents the trailer field with hexadecimal value
   0xBC [RFC8017].

4.1.2.  ECDSA Signatures

   The Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) is defined in
   [X9.62].  When the id-ecdsa-with-shake128 or id-ecdsa-with-shake256
   (specified in Section 3) algorithm identifier appears, the respective
   SHAKE function (SHAKE128 or SHAKE256) is used as the hash.  The
   encoding MUST omit the parameters field.  That is, the
   AlgorithmIdentifier SHALL be a SEQUENCE of one component: the OID id-
   ecdsa-with-shake128 or id-ecdsa-with-shake256.

   For simplicity and compliance with the ECDSA standard specification
   [X9.62], the output length of the hash function must be explicitly
   determined.  The output length, d, for SHAKE128 or SHAKE256 used in
   ECDSA MUST be 256 or 512 bits, respectively.

   Conforming CA implementations that generate ECDSA with SHAKE
   signatures in certificates or CRLs SHOULD generate such signatures
   with a deterministically generated, nonrandom k in accordance with
   all the requirements specified in [RFC6979].  They MAY also generate
   such signatures in accordance with all other recommendations in
   [X9.62] or [SEC1] if they have a stated policy that requires
   conformance to those standards.  Those standards have not specified
   SHAKE128 and SHAKE256 as hash algorithm options.  However, SHAKE128
   and SHAKE256 with output length being 32 and 64 octets, respectively,
   can be used instead of 256- and 512-bit output hash algorithms such
   as SHA256 and SHA512.

4.2.  Public Keys

   Certificates conforming to [RFC5280] can convey a public key for any
   public key algorithm.  The certificate indicates the public key
   algorithm through an algorithm identifier.  This algorithm identifier
   is an OID with optionally associated parameters.  The conventions and
   encoding for RSASSA-PSS and ECDSA public key algorithm identifiers
   are as specified in Sections 2.3.1 and 2.3.5 of [RFC3279],
   Section 3.1 of [RFC4055] and Section 2.1 of [RFC5480].

   Traditionally, the rsaEncryption object identifier is used to
   identify RSA public keys.  The rsaEncryption object identifier
   continues to identify the subject public key when the RSA private key
   owner does not wish to limit the use of the public key exclusively to
   RSASSA-PSS with SHAKEs.  When the RSA private key owner wishes to
   limit the use of the public key exclusively to RSASSA-PSS with
   SHAKEs, the AlgorithmIdentifiers for RSASSA-PSS defined in Section 3
   SHOULD be used as the algorithm field in the SubjectPublicKeyInfo
   sequence [RFC5280].  Conforming client implementations that process
   RSASSA-PSS with SHAKE public keys when processing certificates and
   CRLs MUST recognize the corresponding OIDs.

   Conforming CA implementations MUST specify the X.509 public key
   algorithm explicitly by using the OIDs specified in Section 3 when
   encoding ECDSA with SHAKE public keys in certificates and CRLs.
   Conforming client implementations that process ECDSA with SHAKE
   public keys when processing certificates and CRLs MUST recognize the
   corresponding OIDs.

   The identifier parameters, as explained in Section 3, MUST be absent.

5.  IANA Considerations

   One object identifier for the ASN.1 module in Appendix A has been
   assigned in the "SMI Security for PKIX Module Identifier"
   (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.0) registry:

            +---------+--------------------------+------------+
            | Decimal |       Description        | References |
            +=========+==========================+============+

            +---------+--------------------------+------------+

                                  Table 1

   IANA has updated the "SMI Security for PKIX Algorithms"
   (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.6) registry [SMI-PKIX] with four additional entries:

             +---------+------------------------+------------+
             | Decimal |      Description       | References |
             +=========+========================+============+

             |    33   | id-ecdsa-with-shake256 |  RFC 8692  |
             +---------+------------------------+------------+

                                  Table 2

   IANA has updated the "Hash Function Textual Names" registry
   [Hash-Texts] with two additional entries for SHAKE128 and SHAKE256:

       +--------------------+-------------------------+-----------+

       +--------------------+-------------------------+-----------+

                                 Table 3

6.  Security Considerations

   This document updates [RFC3279].  The Security Considerations section
   of that document applies to this specification as well.

   NIST has defined appropriate use of the hash functions in terms of
   the algorithm strengths and expected time frames for secure use in
   Special Publications (SPs) [SP800-78-4] and [SP800-107].  These
   documents can be used as guides to choose appropriate key sizes for
   various security scenarios.

   SHAKE128 with output length of 256 bits offers 128 bits of collision
   and preimage resistance.  Thus, SHAKE128 OIDs in this specification
   are RECOMMENDED with 2048- (112-bit security) or 3072-bit (128-bit
   security) RSA modulus or curves with group order of 256 bits (128-bit
   security).  SHAKE256 with a 512-bit output length offers 256 bits of
   collision and preimage resistance.  Thus, the SHAKE256 OIDs in this
   specification are RECOMMENDED with 4096-bit RSA modulus or higher or
   curves with a group order of at least 512 bits, such as the NIST
   Curve P-521 (256-bit security).  Note that we recommended a 4096-bit
   RSA because we would need a 15360-bit modulus for 256 bits of
   security, which is impractical for today's technology.
