Exported Authenticators in TLS

Abstract

This document describes a mechanism that builds on Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) and enables peers to provide proof of ownership of an identity, such as an X.509 certificate. This proof can be exported by one peer, transmitted out of band to the other peer, and verified by the receiving peer.

1.  Introduction

This document provides a way to authenticate one party of a Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) connection to its peer using authentication messages created after the session has been established. This allows both the client and server to prove ownership of additional identities at any time after the handshake has completed. This proof of authentication can be exported and transmitted out of band from one party to be validated by its peer.
This mechanism provides two advantages over the authentication that TLS and DTLS natively provide:
multiple identities:
Endpoints that are authoritative for multiple identities, but that do not have asingle certificate that includes all of the identities, can authenticate additional identities over a single connection.
spontaneous authentication:
After a connection is established, endpoints can authenticate in response toevents in a higher-layer protocol; they can also integrate more context (such as context from the application).
Versions of TLS prior to TLS 1.3 used renegotiation as a way to enable post-handshake client authentication given an existing TLS connection. The mechanism described in this document may be used to replace the post-handshake authentication functionality provided by renegotiation. Unlike renegotiation, Exported Authenticator-based post-handshake authentication does not require any changes at the TLS layer.
Post-handshake authentication is defined in TLS 1.3 Section 4.6.2 of RFC 8446, but it has the disadvantage of requiring additional state to be stored as part of the TLS state machine. Furthermore, the authentication boundaries of TLS 1.3 post-handshake authentication align with TLS record boundaries, which are often not aligned with the authentication boundaries of the higher-layer protocol. For example, multiplexed connection protocols like HTTP/2 [RFC 9113] do not have a notion of which TLS record a given message is a part of.
Exported Authenticators are meant to be used as a building block for application protocols. Mechanisms such as those required to advertise support and handle authentication errors are not handled by TLS (or DTLS).
The minimum version of TLS and DTLS required to implement the mechanisms described in this document are TLS 1.2 [RFC 5246] and DTLS 1.2 [RFC 6347]. (These were obsoleted by TLS 1.3 [RFC 8446] and DTLS 1.3 [RFC 9147].)

2.  Conventions and 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 [RFC 2119] [RFC 8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.
This document uses terminology such as client, server, connection, handshake, endpoint, and peer that are defined in Section 1.1 of RFC 8446. The term "initial connection" refers to the (D)TLS connection from which the Exported Authenticator messages are derived.

3.  Message Sequences

There are two types of messages defined in this document: authenticator requests and authenticators. These can be combined in the following three sequences:
Client Authentication
  • Server generates authenticator request
  • Client generates Authenticator from Server's authenticator request
  • Server validates Client's authenticator
Server Authentication
  • Client generates authenticator request
  • Server generates authenticator from Client's authenticator request
  • Client validates Server's authenticator
Spontaneous Server Authentication
  • Server generates authenticator
  • Client validates Server's authenticator
 Top   ToC   RFCv3-9261

4.  Authenticator Request

The authenticator request is a structured message that can be created by either party of a (D)TLS connection using data exported from that connection. It can be transmitted to the other party of the (D)TLS connection at the application layer. The application-layer protocol used to send the authenticator request SHOULD use a secure transport channel with equivalent security to TLS, such as QUIC [RFC 9001], as its underlying transport to keep the request confidential. The application MAY use the existing (D)TLS connection to transport the authenticator.
An authenticator request message can be constructed by either the client or the server. Server-generated authenticator requests use the CertificateRequest message from Section 4.3.2 of RFC 8446. Client-generated authenticator requests use a new message, called the "ClientCertificateRequest", that uses the same structure as CertificateRequest. (Note that the latter is not a request for a client certificate, but rather a certificate request generated by the client.) These message structures are used even if the connection protocol is TLS 1.2 or DTLS 1.2.
The CertificateRequest and ClientCertificateRequest messages are used to define the parameters in a request for an authenticator. These are encoded as TLS handshake messages, including length and type fields. They do not include any TLS record-layer framing and are not encrypted with a handshake or application-data key.
The structures are defined to be: 
   struct {
      opaque certificate_request_context<0..2^8-1>;
      Extension extensions<2..2^16-1>;
   } ClientCertificateRequest;

   struct {
      opaque certificate_request_context<0..2^8-1>;
      Extension extensions<2..2^16-1>;
   } CertificateRequest;
certificate_request_context:
An opaque string that identifies the authenticator request and that willbe echoed in the authenticator message. A certificate_request_context value MUST be unique foreach authenticator request within the scope of a connection(preventing replay and context confusion). Thecertificate_request_context SHOULD be chosen to be unpredictableto the peer (e.g., by randomly generating it) in order to preventan attacker who has temporary access to the peer's private keyfrom precomputing valid authenticators. For example, the applicationmay choose this value to correspond to a value used in an existingdata structure in the software to simplify implementation.
extensions:
The set of extensions allowed in the structures of CertificateRequest and ClientCertificateRequest is comprised of thosedefined in the "TLS ExtensionType Values" IANA registry containing CR in the "TLS 1.3" column (see [IANA-TLS] and [RFC 8447]). In addition, the set ofextensions in the ClientCertificateRequest structure MAYinclude the server_name extension [RFC 6066].
The uniqueness requirements of the certificate_request_context apply across CertificateRequest and ClientCertificateRequest messages that are used as part of authenticator requests. A certificate_request_context value used in a ClientCertificateRequest cannot be used in an authenticator CertificateRequest on the same connection, and vice versa. There is no impact if the value of a certificate_request_context used in an authenticator request matches the value of a certificate_request_context in the handshake or in a post-handshake message.

5.  Authenticator

The authenticator is a structured message that can be exported from either party of a (D)TLS connection. It can be transmitted to the other party of the (D)TLS connection at the application layer. The application-layer protocol used to send the authenticator SHOULD use a secure transport channel with equivalent security to TLS, such as QUIC [RFC 9001], as its underlying transport to keep the authenticator confidential. The application MAY use the existing (D)TLS connection to transport the authenticator.
An authenticator message can be constructed by either the client or the server given an established (D)TLS connection; an identity, such as an X.509 certificate; and a corresponding private key. Clients MUST NOT send an authenticator without a preceding authenticator request; for servers, an authenticator request is optional. For authenticators that do not correspond to authenticator requests, the certificate_request_context is chosen by the server.

5.1.  Authenticator Keys

Each authenticator is computed using a Handshake Context and Finished MAC (Message Authentication Code) Key derived from the (D)TLS connection. These values are derived using an exporter as described in Section 4 of RFC 5705 (for (D)TLS 1.2) or Section 7.5 of RFC 8446 (for (D)TLS 1.3). For (D)TLS 1.3, the exporter_master_secret MUST be used, not the early_exporter_master_secret. These values use different labels depending on the role of the sender:
  • The Handshake Context is an exporter value that is derived using the label "EXPORTER-client authenticator handshake context" or "EXPORTER-server authenticator handshake context" for authenticators sent by the client or server, respectively.
  • The Finished MAC Key is an exporter value derived using the label "EXPORTER-client authenticator finished key" or "EXPORTER-server authenticator finished key" for authenticators sent by the client or server, respectively.
The context_value used for the exporter is empty (zero length) for all four values. There is no need to include additional context information at this stage because the application-supplied context is included in the authenticator itself. The length of the exported value is equal to the length of the output of the hash function associated with the selected ciphersuite (for TLS 1.3) or the hash function used for the pseudorandom function (PRF) (for (D)TLS 1.2). Exported Authenticators cannot be used with (D)TLS 1.2 ciphersuites that do not use the TLS PRF and with TLS 1.3 ciphersuites that do not have an associated hash function. This hash is referred to as the "authenticator hash".
To avoid key synchronization attacks, Exported Authenticators MUST NOT be generated or accepted on (D)TLS 1.2 connections that did not negotiate the extended master secret extension [RFC 7627].

5.2.  Authenticator Construction

An authenticator is formed from the concatenation of TLS 1.3 Certificate, CertificateVerify, and Finished messages [RFC 8446]. These messages are encoded as TLS handshake messages, including length and type fields. They do not include any TLS record-layer framing and are not encrypted with a handshake or application-data key.
If the peer populating the certificate_request_context field in an authenticator's Certificate message has already created or correctly validated an authenticator with the same value, then no authenticator should be constructed. If there is no authenticator request, the extensions are chosen from those presented in the (D)TLS handshake's ClientHello. Only servers can provide an authenticator without a corresponding request.
ClientHello extensions are used to determine permissible extensions in the server's unsolicited Certificate message in order to follow the general model for extensions in (D)TLS in which extensions can only be included as part of a Certificate message if they were previously sent as part of a CertificateRequest message or ClientHello message. This ensures that the recipient will be able to process such extensions.

5.2.1.  Certificate

The Certificate message contains the identity to be used for authentication, such as the end-entity certificate and any supporting certificates in the chain. This structure is defined in Section 4.4.2 of RFC 8446.
The Certificate message contains an opaque string called "certificate_request_context", which is extracted from the authenticator request, if present. If no authenticator request is provided, the certificate_request_context can be chosen arbitrarily; however, it MUST be unique within the scope of the connection and be unpredictable to the peer.
Certificates chosen in the Certificate message MUST conform to the requirements of a Certificate message in the negotiated version of (D)TLS. In particular, the entries of certificate_list MUST be valid for the signature algorithms indicated by the peer in the "signature_algorithms" and "signature_algorithms_cert" extensions, as described in Section 4.2.3 of RFC 8446 for (D)TLS 1.3 or in Sections 7.4.2 and 7.4.6 of [RFC 5246] for (D)TLS 1.2.
In addition to "signature_algorithms" and "signature_algorithms_cert", the "server_name" [RFC 6066], "certificate_authorities" (Section 4.2.4 of RFC 8446), and "oid_filters" (Section 4.2.5 of RFC 8446) extensions are used to guide certificate selection.
Only the X.509 certificate type defined in [RFC 8446] is supported. Alternative certificate formats such as Raw Public Keys as described in [RFC 7250] are not supported in this version of the specification and their use in this context has not yet been analyzed.
If an authenticator request was provided, the Certificate message MUST contain only extensions present in the authenticator request. Otherwise, the Certificate message MUST contain only extensions present in the (D)TLS ClientHello. Unrecognized extensions in the authenticator request MUST be ignored.

5.2.2.  CertificateVerify

This message is used to provide explicit proof that an endpoint possesses the private key corresponding to its identity. The format of this message is taken from TLS 1.3: 
   struct {
      SignatureScheme algorithm;
      opaque signature<0..2^16-1>;
   } CertificateVerify;
The algorithm field specifies the signature algorithm used (see Section 4.2.3 of RFC 8446 for the definition of this field). The signature is a digital signature using that algorithm.
The signature scheme MUST be a valid signature scheme for TLS 1.3. This excludes all RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 algorithms and combinations of Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) and hash algorithms that are not supported in TLS 1.3.
If an authenticator request is present, the signature algorithm MUST be chosen from one of the signature schemes present in the "signature_algorithms" extension of the authenticator request. Otherwise, with spontaneous server authentication, the signature algorithm used MUST be chosen from the "signature_algorithms" sent by the peer in the ClientHello of the (D)TLS handshake. If there are no available signature algorithms, then no authenticator should be constructed.
The signature is computed using the chosen signature scheme over the concatenation of:
  • a string that consists of octet 32 (0x20) repeated 64 times,
  • the context string "Exported Authenticator" (which is not NUL-terminated),
  • a single 0 octet that serves as the separator, and
  • the hashed authenticator transcript.
The authenticator transcript is the hash of the concatenated Handshake Context, authenticator request (if present), and Certificate message: 
Hash(Handshake Context || authenticator request || Certificate)
Where Hash is the authenticator hash defined in Section 5.1. If the authenticator request is not present, it is omitted from this construction, i.e., it is zero-length.
If the party that generates the authenticator does so with a different connection than the party that is validating it, then the Handshake Context will not match, resulting in a CertificateVerify message that does not validate. This includes situations in which the application data is sent via TLS-terminating proxy. Given a failed CertificateVerify validation, it may be helpful for the application to confirm that both peers share the same connection using a value derived from the connection secrets (such as the Handshake Context) before taking a user-visible action.

5.2.3.  Finished

An HMAC [HMAC] over the hashed authenticator transcript is the concatenation of the Handshake Context, authenticator request (if present), Certificate, and CertificateVerify. The HMAC is computed using the authenticator hash, using the Finished MAC Key as a key. 
Finished = HMAC(Finished MAC Key, Hash(Handshake Context ||
     authenticator request || Certificate || CertificateVerify))

5.2.4.  Authenticator Creation

An endpoint constructs an authenticator by serializing the Certificate, CertificateVerify, and Finished as TLS handshake messages and concatenating the octets: 
Certificate || CertificateVerify || Finished
An authenticator is valid if the CertificateVerify message is correctly constructed given the authenticator request (if used) and the Finished message matches the expected value. When validating an authenticator, constant-time comparisons SHOULD be used for signature and MAC validation.
 Top   ToC   RFCv3-9261

6.  Empty Authenticator

If, given an authenticator request, the endpoint does not have an appropriate identity or does not want to return one, it constructs an authenticated refusal called an "empty authenticator". This is a Finished message sent without a Certificate or CertificateVerify. This message is an HMAC over the hashed authenticator transcript with a Certificate message containing no CertificateEntries and the CertificateVerify message omitted. The HMAC is computed using the authenticator hash, using the Finished MAC Key as a key. This message is encoded as a TLS handshake message, including length and type field. It does not include TLS record-layer framing and is not encrypted with a handshake or application-data key. 
Finished = HMAC(Finished MAC Key, Hash(Handshake Context ||
     authenticator request || Certificate))
 Top   ToC   RFCv3-9261

7.  API Considerations

The creation and validation of both authenticator requests and authenticators SHOULD be implemented inside the (D)TLS library even if it is possible to implement it at the application layer. (D)TLS implementations supporting the use of Exported Authenticators SHOULD provide application programming interfaces by which clients and servers may request and verify Exported Authenticator messages.
Notwithstanding the success conditions described below, all APIs MUST fail if:
  • the connection uses a (D)TLS version of 1.1 or earlier, or
  • the connection is (D)TLS 1.2 and the extended master secret extension [RFC 7627] was not negotiated
The following sections describe APIs that are considered necessary to implement Exported Authenticators. These are informative only.

7.1.  The "request" API

The "request" API takes as input:
  • certificate_request_context (from 0 to 255 octets)
  • the set of extensions to include (this MUST include signature_algorithms) and the contents thereof
It returns an authenticator request, which is a sequence of octets that comprises a CertificateRequest or ClientCertificateRequest message.

7.2.  The "get context" API

The "get context" API takes as input:
  • authenticator or authenticator request
It returns the certificate_request_context.

7.3.  The "authenticate" API

The "authenticate" API takes as input:
  • a reference to the initial connection
  • an identity, such as a set of certificate chains and associated extensions (OCSP [RFC 6960], SCT [RFC 6962] (obsoleted by [RFC 9162]), etc.)
  • a signer (either the private key associated with the identity or the interface to perform private key operations) for each chain
  • an authenticator request or certificate_request_context (from 0 to 255 octets)
It returns either the authenticator or an empty authenticator as a sequence of octets. It is RECOMMENDED that the logic for selecting the certificates and extensions to include in the exporter be implemented in the TLS library. Implementing this in the TLS library lets the implementer take advantage of existing extension and certificate selection logic, and the implementer can more easily remember which extensions were sent in the ClientHello.
It is also possible to implement this API outside of the TLS library using TLS exporters. This may be preferable in cases where the application does not have access to a TLS library with these APIs or when TLS is handled independently of the application-layer protocol.

7.4.  The "validate" API

The "validate" API takes as input:
  • a reference to the initial connection
  • an optional authenticator request
  • an authenticator
  • a function for validating a certificate chain
It returns a status to indicate whether or not the authenticator is valid after applying the function for validating the certificate chain to the chain contained in the authenticator. If validation is successful, it also returns the identity, such as the certificate chain and its extensions.
The API should return a failure if the certificate_request_context of the authenticator was used in a different authenticator that was previously validated. Well-formed empty authenticators are returned as invalid.
When validating an authenticator, constant-time comparison should be used.

8.  IANA Considerations

8.1.  Update of the TLS ExtensionType Registry

IANA has updated the entry for server_name(0) in the "TLS ExtensionType Values" registry [IANA-TLS] (defined in [RFC 8446]) by replacing the value in the "TLS 1.3" column with the value "CH, EE, CR" and listing this document in the "Reference" column.
IANA has also added the following note to the registry:
The addition of the "CR" to the "TLS 1.3" column for the server_name(0) extension only marks the extension as valid in a ClientCertificateRequest created as part of client-generated authenticator requests.

8.2.  Update of the TLS Exporter Labels Registry

IANA has added the following entries to the "TLS Exporter Labels" registry [IANA-EXPORT] (defined in [RFC 5705]): "EXPORTER-client authenticator handshake context", "EXPORTER-server authenticator handshake context", "EXPORTER-client authenticator finished key" and "EXPORTER-server authenticator finished key" with "DTLS-OK" and "Recommended" set to "Y" and this document listed as the reference.

8.3.  Update of the TLS HandshakeType Registry

IANA has added the following entry to the "TLS HandshakeType" registry [IANA-HANDSHAKE] (defined in [RFC 8446]): "client_certificate_request" (17) with "DTLS-OK" set to "Y" and this document listed as the reference. In addition, the following appears in the "Comment" column:
Used in TLS versions prior to 1.3.
 Top   ToC   RFCv3-9261

9.  Security Considerations

The Certificate/Verify/Finished pattern intentionally looks like the TLS 1.3 pattern that now has been analyzed several times. For example, [SIGMAC] presents a relevant framework for analysis, and Appendix E.1.6 of RFC 8446 contains a comprehensive set of references.
Authenticators are independent and unidirectional. There is no explicit state change inside TLS when an authenticator is either created or validated. The application in possession of a validated authenticator can rely on any semantics associated with data in the certificate_request_context.
  • This property makes it difficult to formally prove that a server is jointly authoritative over multiple identities, rather than individually authoritative over each.
  • There is no indication in (D)TLS about which point in time an authenticator was computed. Any feedback about the time of creation or validation of the authenticator should be tracked as part of the application-layer semantics if required.
The signatures generated with this API cover the context string "Exported Authenticator"; therefore, they cannot be transplanted into other protocols.
In TLS 1.3, the client cannot explicitly learn from the TLS layer whether its Finished message was accepted. Because the application traffic keys are not dependent on the client's final flight, receiving messages from the server does not prove that the server received the client's Finished message. To avoid disagreement between the client and server on the authentication status of Exported Authenticators, servers MUST verify the client Finished message before sending an EA or processing a received Exported Authenticator.
