 Registry Lock Extension for the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP)
                      draft-wisser-registrylock-01

Abstract

   This extensions defines an additional protective layer for changes to
   domain [RFC5731], host [RFC5732] and contact [RFC5733] objects
   managed through EPP.

   EPP allows changes to objects only by the sponsoring client.  EPP
   objects are usually managed by the sponsoring client on behalf of the
   sponsoring clients customers.  All of these interactions are ususally
   fully automated.

   In case of a system breach, there is no protection in EPP to changes
   to any object by the intruder.

   This extension defines a protective layer that aims to break
   automated changes and work flows by requiring manual intervention by
   the sponsoring client or it's customers.

1.  Introduction

   This extensions defines an additional protective layer for changes to
   domain [RFC5731], host [RFC5732] and contact [RFC5733] objects
   managed through EPP.

   EPP allows changes to objects only by the sponsoring client.  EPP
   objects are usually managed by the sponsoring client on behalf of the
   sponsoring clients customers.  All of these interactions are ususally
   fully automated.

   In case of a system breach, there is no protection in EPP to changes
   to any object by the intruder.

   This extension defines a protective layer that aims to break
   automated changes and work flows by requiring manual intervention by
   the sponsoring client or it's customers.

1.1.  Conventions Used in This Document

   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 [RFC2119].

   XML is case sensitive.  Unless stated otherwise, XML specifications
   and examples provided in this document MUST be interpreted in the
   character case presented in order to develop a conforming
   implementation.

   In examples, "C:" represents lines sent by a protocol client and "S:"
   represents lines returned by a protocol server.  Indentation and
   white space in examples are provided only to illustrate element
   relationships and are not a REQUIRED feature of this protocol.

   "regLock" is used as an abbreviation for
   "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp:registryLock-1.0".  The XML namespace
   prefix "reglock" is used, but implementations MUST NOT depend on it
   and instead employ a proper namespace-aware XML parser and serializer
   to interpret and output the XML documents.

2.  Object Protection

   This extension provides additional protection to objects managed by a
   sponsoring client on behalf of a registrant.  This is achieved by
   requiring additional authorization for transform commands.

   Solutions can be broadly categorized as in-band or out-of-band
   authorizations.  Where in-band authorizations would provide

Wisser                 Expires September 25, 2020               [Page 3]
Internet-Draft                registryLock                    March 2020

   authorization through EPP.  Whereas out-of-band solutions provide
   authorization by some other means.

2.1.  Password Authorization

   In-band authorization uses the authorization possibilities provided
   by EPP Standards [RFC5730], [RFC5731], [RFC5732] and [RFC5733].

   Registries implementing in-band authorization should consider to
   require more secure passwords as specified in draft-ietf-regext-
   login-security.

2.2.  Out-of-band Authorization

   Out-of-band Authorization is not covered in this document.  By
   definition out of band authorization will not use EPP and therefor is
   not subject of consideration here.

2.3.  Command Execution Restrictions

   Once an object has Registry Lock enabled all transform commands
   except <renew> MUST only be executed if

      proper authorization is provided
      the object is unlocked

   Otherwise the command MUST be rejected with EPP result code 2201
   "Authorization error" [RFC5730] section 3.

   The following EPP flags [RFC5731], [RFC5732], [RFC5733] must be set.

      serverDeleteProhibited
      serverTransferProhibited
      serverUpdateProhibited

   If the object is unlocked the flags SHOULD be cleared and the server
   should answer to an <info> request with the according information.
   However, if the object is only temporarily unlocked, the flags SHOULD
   be cleared, but in an <info> response the server should still
   indicate that the object is under registry lock.

   OPEN QUESTION: If a domain is under registry lock, can a subordinate
   host be updated?

3.  Object Attributes

3.1.  Locking Status

   Locking Status information indicates if the additional protection of
   Registry Lock is enabled for an object.

   Boolean values MUST be represented in the XML Schema format described
   in Part 2 of the W3C XML Schema recommendation [W3C.REC-xmlschema-
   2-20010502].

4.  EPP Command Mapping

   A detailed description of the EPP syntax and semantics can be found
   in the EPP core protocol specification [RFC5730].

4.1.  EPP Query Commands

4.1.1.  EPP <check> Command

   This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <check> command
   or <check> response described in the EPP mappings [RFC5731],
   [RFC5732] or [RFC5733].

4.1.2.  EPP <info> Command

   This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <info> command
   described in the EPP domain mapping [RFC5731], host mapping [RFC5732]
   or contact mapping [RFC5733] However, additional elements are defined
   for the <info> response.

   When an <info> command has been processed successfully, the EPP
   <resData> element MUST contain child elements as described in the EPP
   object mappings.

   In addition, the EPP <extension> element SHOULD contain a child
   <regLock:infData> element that identifies the extension namespace the
   epp client has indicated support for the extension in the <login>
   command.

   The <regLock:infData> element contains the following child elements:

      Exactly one <locked> element that indicates if Registry Lock is
      enabled for the object.
      An OPTIONAL <unlockedUntil> element if the object currently can be
      changed by the sponsoring client.  The field indicates the time
      stamp when further changes will be impossible.

   If the object is locked, the EPP <delete> command MUST be rejected
   with EPP response code 2201 "Authorization error" [RFC5730] section
   3.  See Section 2.3

4.2.3.  EPP <renew> Command

   This extension does not add any elements to the EPP <renew> command
   or <renew> response described in the EPP mappings [RFC5731],

   This extension does add an elements to the EPP <update:resData>
   section of the response as described in [RFC5730].

   If the object is locked, the EPP <update> the only allowed <update>
   command is a temporary unlock.  All other <update> commands MUST be
   rejected with EPP response code 2201 "Authorization error" [RFC5730]
   section 3.  See Section 2.3

   If the object is temporarily unlocked only <update> commands are
   allowed.  <delete> and <transfer> are explicitly not allowed.
   Registries can further narrow down allowed changes, e.g. registries
   could prohobit changes of registrant for doamins even under temporary
   unlock.

   IF the object is temporarily unlocked, the SEVER_UPDATE_PROHIBITED
   status should be cleared for the time of the temporary unock.

5.  Formal Syntax

   One schema is presented here that is the EPP Registry Lock Extension
   schema.

   The formal syntax presented here is a complete schema representation
   of the object mapping suitable for automated validation of EPP XML
   instances.  The BEGIN and END tags are not part of the schema; they
   are used to note the beginning and ending of the schema for URI
   registration purposes.

6.  IANA Considerations

6.1.  XML Namespace

   This document uses URNs to describe XML namespaces and XML schemas
   conforming to a registry mechanism described in [RFC3688].  The
   following URI assignment is requested of IANA:

   Registration request for the registryLock namespace:

Wisser                 Expires September 25, 2020              [Page 14]
Internet-Draft                registryLock                    March 2020

      URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp:registryLock-1.0
      Registrant Contact: IESG
      XML: None.  Namespace URIs do not represent an XML specification.

   Registration request for the registryLock XML schema:

      URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:schema:epp:registryLock-1.0
      Registrant Contact: IESG
      XML: See the "Formal Syntax" section of this document.

6.2.  EPP Extension Registry

   The EPP extension described in this document should be registered by
   the IANA in the EPP Extension Registry described in [RFC7451].  The
   details of the registration are as follows:

   Name of Extension: "Registry Lock Extension for the Extensible
   Provisioning Protocol (EPP)"

   Document status: Standards Track

   Reference: (insert reference to RFC version of this document)

   Registrant Name and Email Address: IESG, <iesg@ietf.org>

   TLDs: Any

   IPR Disclosure: None

   Status: Active

   Notes: None

7.  Implementation Status

   Note to RFC Editor: Please remove this section and the reference to
   RFC 7942 [RFC7942] before publication.

   Implemented by .SE since 2019.

8.  Security Considerations

   The security properties of EPP from [RFC5730] are preserved.

   This extensions introduces an additional security layer for changes
   of objects managed through EPP.  The overall security of these
   measures depends on policies and procedures not covered in this
   document.
