This use case and requirements document is intended to
summarize use
cases and requirements driving revisions to XML Signature
2nd Edition [<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XMLDSIG-CORE">XMLDSIG-CORE</a></cite>], XML Encryption [<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XMLENC-CORE">XMLENC-CORE</a></cite>],
and Canonical XML 1.1 [<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XML-C14N11">XML-C14N11</a></cite>]. It is not intended
to define all
possible use cases for these Recommendations, but rather
to provide
rationale for decisions leading to XML Signature 1.1, XML
Encryption
1.1, XML Signature Properties and XML Security Generic
Hybrid Ciphers.
</p>
<p>
This document outlines general principles and use cases
leading to
requirements and offers some design options. It
elaborates on principles and updates requirements
expressed for the original XML Security work including
original requirements documents (e.g. [<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XML-CANONICAL-REQ">XML-CANONICAL-REQ</a></cite>], and
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XMLDSIG-REQUIREMENTS">XMLDSIG-REQUIREMENTS</a></cite>]).
This document also reflects material from a W3C workshop on
next steps for XML
Security [<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XMLSEC-NEXTSTEPS-2007">XMLSEC-NEXTSTEPS-2007</a></cite>] and position papers
associated with the workshop, including

[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XMLDSIG-THOMPSON">XMLDSIG-THOMPSON</a></cite>].
</p><p>
Design options were documented early on to provide a
starting point with the expectation that specifications
developed to meet the requirements could subsequently differ
in design choices.Thus the design choices in this document
should be viewed as historical information.

<p>
The following design principles will be used to guide further
development of XML Security, including XML Signature, XML Encryption
and Canonical XML. These principles are intended to encourage
consistent design decisions, to provide insight
into design rationale and to anchor discussions on requirements and
design. This list includes items from the original requirements for
XML Signature

<p>XML Signatures should themselves be self-describing first

Signatures can be referenced via URI and used in
other operations. For example, an XML Signature may be signed or
encrypted, or referred to in a statement (such as an RDF statement).

<div id="use-cases-and-background" class="section">
<h4><span class="secno">3.2.1 </span>Use Cases and Background</h4>
<p>
Several open specifications make use of derived keys, e.g. RSA
Laboratories' PKCS #5 v2.0
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-PKCS5">PKCS5</a></cite>]
and OASIS'
WS-SecureConversation
Version 1.3
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-WS-SECURECONVERSATION13">WS-SECURECONVERSATION13</a></cite>]
. These derived keys are used
for a variety of purposes
including encryption and message authentication, and the purpose of
key derivation itself is typically a combination of a desire to expand
a given, but limited, set of key material and prudent security
practices of limiting use (exposure) of such key material.
</p>
<p>
Contrary to the situation in the ASN.1-based world (e.g. S/MIME
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-SMIME">SMIME</a></cite>]
), there is currently a lack of general
support in the core XML
Security specifications, XML Signature and XML Encryption, for derived
keys. Amendment 1 of the aforementioned PKCS #5 v2.0 Amendment 1
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-PKCS5">PKCS5</a></cite>]
adds support for derived keys only in the context of
password-based cryptography. Other XML-based open specifications have
similar limitations (see below). This means that an originator of an
XML document or message cannot generally make use of key derivation
in a standardized manner when performing cryptographic operations on
that document.

describes key

<p>
WS-SecurityPolicy Version 1.2
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-WS-SECURITYPOLICY12">WS-SECURITYPOLICY12</a></cite>]
really only specifies whether
derived keys shall be used or not but may also specify the algorithm
to derive keys. The specification also identifies when derived key
tokens shall appear in message headers (header
layout). WS-SecurityPolicy relies on WS-SecureConversation for the
definition of derived keys, key derivation methods and derived key
token format.

<div id="ws-secureconversation-1.3" class="section">
<h5><span class="secno">3.2.2.3 </span>WS-SecureConversation 1.3:</h5>
<p>
This specification
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-WS-SECURECONVERSATION13">WS-SECURECONVERSATION13</a></cite>]
defines the wsc:DerivedKeyTokenType token
type. The derived key token can be used to derive keys from any other
token that contains keys. The key derivation algorithm specified
builds on the P_hash (P_SHA-1) function from TLS, just as the
algorithm in the Web Service Security UsernameToken Profile
document. Citing from the specification: "The <code><wsc:DerivedKeyToken></code>
element is used to indicate that the key for a specific reference is
generated from the function. This is so that explicit security tokens,
secrets, or key material need not be exchanged as often." (This latter
seems dubious since the DerivedKeyToken still needs to be exchanged.)
Further: "Basically, a signature or encryption references a
<code><wsc:DerivedKeyToken></code> in the <code><wsse:Security></code> header that, in turn,
references the <code><wsc:SecurityContextToken></code>." The derived key token does
not support references using key identifiers or key names. All
references <em class="rfc2119" title="must">must</em> use an ID (to a wsu:Id attribute) or a URI reference
to the <code><wsc:Identifier></code> element in the Security Context Token.

<p>
A derived key type shall be possible to use in those

The motivation for this requirement is that any XML Security

<p>
The proposal immediately meets requirements R2, R3 (any key derivation
method may be used, including the ones specified, e.g., in
WS-SecureConversation), R4 and R5. For R1 we have:
</p>
<p>
Username Token Profile: As the UsernameToken Profile requires use of an
existing procedure to derive keys, the proposal
cannot formally meet
requirement R1. However, since the UsernameTokenType is extensible,
syntactically the requirement can be met since a <code><ds:DerivedKey></code>
element could be placed in lieu of the current <code><salt></code> and <code><iteration></code>
elements.
</p>
<p>
WS-Trust: Use of derived keys in WS-Trust is _implicit_, since the
derived key is never sent. The derived keys may be referenced by any
available means in issued tokens and the requester is only required to
identify particular key derivation methods. Since URIs are used for
this (the <code><wst:ComputedKey></code> element), any other key derivation method
with a well-known URI may be used. Specifically, one can also envision
an STS returning a proof token containing a <code><DerivedKey></code> element when
there already is a shared key between the STS and a token
requester. And so, R1 is met.
</p>
<p>
WS-SecurityPolicy: Not affected by a new key type. R1 is met.
</p>
<p>
WS-SecureConversation: Use of derived keys in WS-SecureConversation is
typically based on the establishment of a session context, from which
specific keys are derived. The proposed <code><xmlsec:DerivedKeyType></code> type may be
used in a similar fashion, although the interactive nature of
WS-SecureConversation (exchange of Nonces, Labels) may still favor use
of the existing DerivedKeyToken in this context. But as a counterexample, a
party that wishes to send data authenticated with a key derived from a
key established in the session, may do so using the
<code><xmlsec:DerivedKey></code> element in the <code><ds:KeyInfo></code> element, and the
element may refer to a SecurityContextToken that identifies the base
key. This would, it seems, eliminate an absolute need for a
<code><wsc:DerivedKeyToken></code> (and should be similar in nature as the "Implied
Derived Key" option in WS-SecureConversation). Also, the
<code><wsc:DerivedKeyToken></code> implies use of a particular key derivation
algorithm (the <code><Label></code> and <code><Nonce></code> elements) although it does not
require them.
</p>
<p>
In summary, WS-Trust and WS-SecurityPolicy are not directly affected
by this proposal. UsernameToken profile could use the proposal if the
(artificial) requirement to only use the key derivation method
specified in the UsernameToken Profile document was
relaxed. WS-SecureConversation comes close in establishing an
alternative but the specification defines a token primarily for use in
interactive sessions based on a security context and which is designed
for a particular key derivation method. It also seems strange to
require use of such a token in more basic XMLDsig or XMLEnc
situations. Finally, the proposal seems to be able to replace the
DerivedKeyToken currently used in WS-SecureConversation.

XML Signature specifies algorithm identifiers and implementation

processing, including digest and signature algorithms. The algorithms
listed in XML Signature, Second Edition date from the original XML
Signature Recommendation, published in 2002. Since that time there have
been new algorithms introduced to address security risks associated with
earlier algorithms (e.g. SHA-256 versus SHA-1), changes in patent status
related to algorithms (e.g. RSA signing no longer has licensing
requirements), and additional algorithms introduced to meet additional

<h4><span class="secno">3.3.3 </span>Suite B Elliptic Curve Key Value Design (ECKeyValue)</h4>
<div id="algorithm-eckeyvalue-issues" class="section">
<h5><span class="secno">3.3.3.1 </span>RFC 4050 issues in XML Signature context</h5>
<p>
RFC 4050 is an informational RFC that defines a method of representing
ECDSA public keys and ECC curve parameters for use with XML Signature,
but it has some issues related to XML Signature:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>The RFC 4050 definition of an ECDSAKeyValue is larger than
necessary.
</p>
<p>
An ECDSAKeyValue is defined by the type ECPointType, which has
subelements X and Y. X and Y are defined as FieldParamsType which is an
abstract type. Separate derived types are defined for prime fields,
trinomial base fields, pentanomial base fields, and odd characteristic
extension fields. In order to validate against the 4050 schema, one
must include the type attribute from the XML schema instance
namespace. This is not a significant problem but it does make the
public key larger than necessary.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>ECPointType definition is inconsistent with ANSI X9.62 and
RFC 3279.
</p>
<p>
ECPointType is reused in the definition of the ExplicitParamsType to
describe the base point of a curve. The field parameters are already
included in the FieldParams element. The use of the FieldParamsType in
the ECPointType definition appears to be a mistake in 4050. If you
look at the ASN.1 definition for ECC public keys in RFC 3279
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-RFC3279">RFC3279</a></cite>]
, ECPoint
simply references the Point to Octet String conversion function in
ANSI X9.62 (section A.5.6 in the 2005 version, section 4.3.6 in the
1998 version). The conversion functions in X9.62 are not ASN.1
specific and it appears they would be implemented as part of any ECC
crypto library. It appears that RFC 4050 tried to avoid using any of
the conversion functions in X9.62 but somehow mixed up the definitions
between a field type and a field element.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Limitation of the decimal type in XSD</p>
<p>
RFC 4050 defines X and Y (at least for prime and odd characteristic
extension fields) as xs:nonNegativeInteger which derives from the
xs:decimal primitive type. However, XSD requires implementations to
support only a maximum of 18 digits (see <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#decimal">section 3.2.3</a>
in
[<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XMLSCHEMA11-2">XMLSCHEMA11-2</a></cite>]
).
It is possible to create an example requiring 77 and 78 digits for X
and Y respectively.
This means that there is no guarantee that an RFC 4050 compliant
ECDSAKeyValue element will actually validate against the RFC 4050 schema.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Collision between the RFC 4050 DTD and the XMLDSIG DTD
</p>
<p>
Merging the RFC 4050 DTD into the XMLDSIG DTD is a problem due to
conflicting DTD definitions. In ECDSAKeyValue, Y is defined as follows:
</p>
<pre class="example sh_html sh_sourceCode">Definition of Y in ECDSAKeyValue
<!ELEMENT Y EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST Y Value CDATA #<em class="rfc2119" title="required">required</em>></pre>
<p>However, DSAKeyValue defines Y as follows:</p>
<pre class="example sh_html sh_sourceCode">Definition of Y in DSAKeyValue
<!ELEMENT Y (#PCDATA) ></pre>
<p>ECDSAKeyValue also contains identical definition for elements SEED and
P as DSAKeyValue.
</p>
<p>It does not seem possible to scope the definition of Y
under a specific element in DTD.
</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div id="algorithm-eckeyvalue-proposal" class="section">
<h5><span class="secno">3.3.3.2 </span>Proposed Solution to RFC 4050 issues in XML Signature context</h5>
<p>
Because of these issues, a possible proposed solution is
for XML Signature
1.1 to define a new ECPublicKey element in the ds namespace rather
than attempt to reuse the RFC 4050 ECDSAPublicKey elements. This new
element will be based on the ASN.1
definition ANSI X9.62 and RFC 3279. Changing the name of the element
to ECPublicKey means it can be also used in XML Encryption to
support ECDH. (Note, XML Signature 1.1 defined
ECKeyValue instead).
</p>
<p>
To maximize interoperability with existing RFC 4050 implementations,
we should also put a note in 1.1 to recommend implementations to
support a profile of RFC 4050. The profile will support only named prime
curves.

<h3><span class="secno">3.4 </span>Correct known issues</h3>
<p>This section summarizes the motivation for new features
designed to
address known issues. (This section of the requirements
document was written after the
XML Signature 1.1 specification was updated in order to
record the rationale for the changes.)</p>
<div id="issueserial" class="section">
<h4><span class="secno">3.4.1 </span>Limitations associated with <code>X509IssueSerial</code></h4>
<p>
The <code>X509IssuerSerialNumber</code> child element of
the <code>X509IssuerSerialType</code>
XML Schema type
was defined to be an integer
holding an X.509 certificate serial number.
XML
Schema validators may not support integer types with decimal
data exceeding 18 decimal digits [<cite><a class="bibref" rel="biblioentry" href="#bib-XMLSCHEMA-2">XMLSCHEMA-2</a></cite>]
and this
maximum length has proven
insufficient as many Certificate Authorities issue
certificates with large random serial numbers that
exceed this
limit. A
new element is defined in XML Signature 1.1 with a
different type definition,
the <code>sig11:X509Digest</code> element, and a warning
that
deployments that make use of
the <code>X509IssuerSerial</code> element
should take care if schema validation is involved.
</p>
</div>
<div id="RetrievalMethod" class="section">
<h4><span class="secno">3.4.2 </span>Simplify access to <code>ds:KeyInfo</code></h4>
<p>
The <code>RetrievalMethod</code> is ambiguous about whether the result
is an element within <code>KeyInfo</code> or the <code>KeyInfo</code>
element itself. It also supports the use of <code>ds:Transform</code>
adding complexity. The new <code>KeyInfoReference</code> element
removes the ambiguity by always referencing the <code>KeyInfo</code>
element itself. It also is simpler in that it does not allow
any <code>ds:Transform</code> children.
</p>
</div>
<div id="DEREncodedKeyValue" class="section">
<h4><span class="secno">3.4.3 </span>XML <code>KeyValue</code> type interoperability</h4>
<p>
XML Signature 1.1 defines XML formats to
convey key information in the <code>KeyValue</code>
element. There are scenarios
where at least one of signer and/or verifier are not able to
serialize keys in those XML formats.
The <code>DEREncodedKeyValue</code> element has been
added to XML Signature 1.1 to support use
of other binary encodings.
</p>
</div>
<div id="OCSPResponse" class="section">
<h4><span class="secno">3.4.4 </span>Support OCSP use case</h4>
<p>
It is sometimes useful to provide an OCSP
response along
with an X.509 certificate. The <code>OCSPResponse</code>
element was
added to <code>X509Data</code> to support this use case.
