                  Mark and Signed Mark Objects Mapping

Abstract

Domain Name Registries (DNRs) may operate in special modes for certain periods of time, enabling trademark holders to protect their rights during the introduction of a Top-Level Domain (TLD). One of those special modes of operation is the Sunrise Period. The Sunrise Period allows trademark holders an advance opportunity to register domain names corresponding to their trademarks before names are generally available to the public. This document describes the format of a mark and a digitally signed mark used by trademark holders for registering domain names during the Sunrise Period of generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs). Three types of Mark objects are defined in this specification: registered trademarks, court-validated marks, and marks protected by statue or treaty. Status of This Memo This is an Internet Standards Track document. This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It represents the consensus of the IETF community.

1. Introduction

Domain Name Registries (DNRs) may operate in special modes for certain periods of time enabling trademark holders to protect their rights during the introduction of a Top-Level Domain (TLD). One of those special modes of operation is the Sunrise Period. The Sunrise Period allows trademark holders an advance opportunity to register domain names corresponding to their trademarks before names are generally available to the public. This specification was defined as part of the development of the ICANN Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH). The ICANN TMCH is a global repository for trademark data used by DNRs, registrars, and trademark holders during the registration process of domain names. This document describes a mapping of the common elements found in trademark data. A digitally signed mark format is defined in order to support digital signatures on the mark. Finally, a mapping for encoding the signed mark document is defined. Three types of Mark objects are defined in this specification: registered trademarks, court-validated marks, and marks protected by statue or treaty. This specification is intended to be used in the gTLD space, but nothing precludes the use of this format by other entities. The detailed policy regarding the public key infrastructure (PKI), authorized validators, and other requirements must be defined based on the local policy of the entities using this specification. In the case of gTLDs, the detailed policy regarding the use of this specification is defined in the Rights Protection Mechanism Requirements document (see [ICANN-TMCH]), and the PKI is defined in [TMCH]. Implementations will need to implement such a PKI (or an equivalent) in order for the signatures defined in this document to have any useful semantics. The objects specified in this document can be referenced by application protocols like the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP), defined in [RFC5730].

1.1. Terminology

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 (EXtensible Markup Language) 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. "signedMark-1.0" is used as an abbreviation for "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:signedMark-1.0". The XML namespace prefix "smd" 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. "mark-1.0" is used as an abbreviation for "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:mark-1.0". The XML namespace prefix "mark" 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 Description

This section defines the Mark and Signed Mark objects. Empty complex element types and abstract elements are defined to support additional definitions using XML schema substitution groups. Support for replacement through the XML schema substitution groups is included in the description of the objects. This section defines some elements as OPTIONAL. If an element is not defined as OPTIONAL, then it MUST be included in the object. The following elements are defined as telephone numbers: <mark:voice>, <mark:fax>, and <smd:voice>. The representation of telephone numbers in this specification is derived from structures defined in [ITU.E164.2005]. Telephone numbers described in this mapping are character strings that MUST begin with a plus sign ("+", ASCII value 0x002B), followed by a country code defined in [ITU.E164.2005], followed by a dot (".", ASCII value 0x002E), followed by a sequence of digits representing the telephone number. An optional "x" attribute is provided to note telephone extension information. The following elements are defined as email addresses: <mark:email> and <smd:email>. Email address syntax is defined in [RFC5322].

2.3. Signed Mark

The <smd:signedMark> is a digitally signed XML document using an XML Signature [XMLDSIG]. The <smd:signedMark> XML document (SMD) includes a required "id" attribute of type XML Schema Definition (XSD) ID for use with an IDREF URI from the Signature element. The SMD might be transmitted as part of a protocol already based on XML; therefore, exclusive XML canonicalization as defined in [XMLC14N] MUST be used. A <smd:signedMark> element substitutes for the <smd:abstractSignedMark> abstract element to define a concrete definition of a signed mark. The <smd:abstractSignedMark> element can be replaced by other signed mark definitions using the XML schema substitution groups feature. The child elements of the <smd:signedMark> element include: o The <smd:id> element that uniquely identifies an SMD in relation to a repository of SMDs potentially maintained by more than one issuer. The <smd:id> value is a concatenation of the local identifier, followed by a hyphen ("-", ASCII value 0x002D), followed by the issuer identifier. o A <smd:issuerInfo> element that contains the information of the issuer of the mark registration. An "issuerID" attribute is used to specify the issuer identifier. The child elements include: * A <smd:org> element that contains the organization name of the issuer. * A <smd:email> element that contains the issuer customer support email address. * An OPTIONAL <smd:url> element that contains the HTTP or HTTPS URL of the issuer's site. * An OPTIONAL <smd:voice> element that contains the issuer's voice telephone number. o A <smd:notBefore> element that contains the creation date and time of the SMD. o A <smd:notAfter> element that contains the expiration date and time of the SMD.
Top   ToC   RFC7848 - Page 11
   o  A <mark:mark> element that contains the mark information as
      defined in Section 2.2.

   NOTE: The example shown above includes white space for indentation
   purposes.  It is RECOMMENDED that SMDs do not include white space
   between the XML elements, in order to mitigate risks of invalidating
   the digital signature when transferring of SMDs between applications
   takes place.

2.4. Encoded Signed Mark

The <smd:encodedSignedMark> element contains an encoded form of an SMD (described in Section 2.3), with the encoding defined by the "encoding" attribute with the default "encoding" value of "base64" [RFC4648]. The following is an example of a <smd:encodedSignedMark> element that uses the default "base64" for encoding a <smd:signedMark> element. <smd:encodedSignedMark xmlns:smd="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:signedMark-1.0"> PD94bWwgdmVyc2lvbj0iMS4wIiBlbmNvZGluZz0iVVRGLTgiPz4KPHNtZDpzaWduZWRNYXJ rIHhtbG5zOnNtZD0idXJuOmlldGY6cGFyYW1zOnhtbDpuczpzaWduZWRNYXJrLTEuMCIgaW ...

3. Formal Syntax

Two schemas are presented here. The first schema is the schema for the Signed Mark object. The second schema is the schema for the Mark object. 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.

4. IANA Considerations

This document uses URNs to describe XML namespaces and XML schemas conforming to the registry mechanism described in [RFC3688]. IANA has registered two URI assignments: signed mark (signedMark-1.0) and mark (mark-1.0). o The signed mark namespace (signedMark-1.0) has been registered in the "ns" registry. URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:signedMark-1.0 Registrant Contact: IESG XML: None. Namespace URIs do not represent an XML specification. o The signed mark schema (signedMark-1.0) has been registered in the "schema" registry. URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:schema:signedMark-1.0 Registrant Contact: IESG XML: See the "Formal Syntax" section of this document. o The mark namespace (mark-1.0) has been registered in the "ns" registry. URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:mark-1.0 Registrant Contact: IESG XML: None. Namespace URIs do not represent an XML specification. o The mark schema (mark-1.0) has been registered in the "schema" registry. URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:schema:mark-1.0 Registrant Contact: IESG XML: See the "Formal Syntax" section of this document.
Top   ToC   RFC7848 - Page 22

5. Security Considerations

The security of a Signed Mark object depends on the security of the underlying XML Digital Signature (DSIG) algorithms. As such, all the security considerations from [XMLDSIG] apply here as well. The digital signature algorithm used in Signed Mark objects SHOULD be RSA-SHA256 [RFC6931]. The size of the RSA key SHOULD be at least 2048 bits. A valid reason for choosing something else would be if RSA-SHA256 is deemed to not provide sufficient security. In the case of the ICANN TMCH, Signed Mark objects use the algorithms for digesting and signing recommended in this document. Signed Mark objects are used primarily for domain name registrations in gTLDs during the Sunrise Period, but other third parties might be using them. A party using Signed Mark objects should verify that the digital signature is valid based on local policy. In the case of gTLDs, the Rights Protection Mechanism Requirements document [ICANN-TMCH] defines such policy, and the PKI is defined in [TMCH]. Implementations will need to implement such a PKI (or an equivalent) in order for the signatures defined in this document to have any useful semantics.
