+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) [RFC2560] enables
+ applications to obtain timely information regarding the revocation
+ status of a certificate. Because OCSP responses are well-bounded and
+ small in size, constrained clients may wish to use OCSP to check the
+ validity of the certificates for Kerberos Key Distribution Center
+ (KDC) in order to avoid transmission of large Certificate Revocation
+ Lists (CRLs) and therefore save bandwidth on constrained networks
+ [OCSP-PROFILE].
+
+ This document defines a pre-authentication type [CLARIFICATIONS],
+ where the client and the KDC MAY piggyback OCSP responses for
+ certificates used in authentication exchanges, as defined in
+ [PKINIT].
+
+ By using this OPTIONAL extension, PKINIT clients and the KDC can
+ maximize the reuse of cached OCSP responses.
+
+2. 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 [RFC2119].
+
+3. Message Definition
+
+ A pre-authentication type identifier is defined for this mechanism:
+
+ PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE 18
+
+ The corresponding padata-value field [CLARIFICATIONS] contains the
+ DER [X60] encoding of the following ASN.1 type:
+
+ PKOcspData ::= SEQUENCE OF OcspResponse
+ -- If more than one OcspResponse is
+ -- included, the first OcspResponse
+ -- MUST contain the OCSP response
+ -- for the signer's certificate.
+
+ OcspResponse ::= OCTET STRING
+ -- Contains a complete OCSP response,
+ -- as defined in [RFC2560].
+
+ The client MAY send OCSP responses for certificates used in PA-PK-AS-
+ REQ [PKINIT] via a PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE.
+
+ The KDC that receives a PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE then SHOULD send a PA-PK-
+
+
+
+Zhu, et al. Expires November 21, 2005 [Page 3]
+
+Internet-Draft OCSP Support for PKINIT May 2005
+
+
+ OCSP-RESPONSE containing OCSP responses for certificates used in the
+ KDC's PA-PK-AS-REP. The client can request a PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE by
+ using a PKOcspData containing an empty sequence.
+
+ The KDC MAY send a PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE when it does not receive a PA-
+ PK-OCSP-RESPONSE from the client.
+
+ The PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE sent by the KDC contains OCSP responses for
+ certificates used in PA-PK-AS-REP [PKINIT].
+
+ Note the lack of integrity protection for the empty or missing OCSP
+ response; lack of an expected OCSP response from the KDC for the
+ KDC's certificates SHOULD be treated as an error by the client,
+ unless it is configured otherwise.
+
+ When using OCSP, the response is signed by the OCSP server, which is
+ trusted by the receiver. Depending on local policy, further
+ verification of the validity of the OCSP servers may be needed
+
+ The client and the KDC SHOULD ignore invalid OCSP responses received
+ via this mechanism, and they MAY implement CRL processing logic as a
+ fall-back position, if the OCSP responses received via this mechanism
+ alone are not sufficient for the verification of certificate
+ validity. The client and/or the KDC MAY ignore a valid OCSP response
+ and perform their own revocation status verification independently.
+
+4. Security Considerations
+
+ The pre-authentication data in this document do not actually
+ authenticate any principals, but is designed to be used in
+ conjunction with PKINIT.
+
+ There is no binding between PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE pre-authentication
+ data and PKINIT pre-authentication data other than a given OCSP
+ response corresponding to a certificate used in a PKINIT pre-
+ authentication data element. Attacks involving removal or
+ replacement of PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE pre-authentication data elements
+ are, at worst, downgrade attacks, where a PKINIT client or KDC would
+ proceed without use of CRLs or OCSP for certificate validation, or
+ denial of service attacks, where a PKINIT client or KDC that cannot
+ validate the other's certificate without an accompanying OCSP
+ response might reject the AS exchange or where they might have to
+ download very large CRLs in order to continue. Kerberos V does not
+ protect against denial-of-service attacks, therefore the denial-of-
+ service aspect of these attacks are acceptable.
+
+ If a PKINIT client or KDC cannot validate certificates without the
+ aid of a valid PA-PK-OCSP-RESPONSE then it SHOULD fail the AS
