A Publication Protocol for the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI)
- draft-ietf-sidr-publication-01
+ draft-ietf-sidr-publication-02
Abstract
This document defines a protocol for publishing Resource Public Key
Infrastructure (RPKI) objects. Even though the RPKI will have many
participants issuing certificates and creating other objects, it is
operationally useful to consolidate the publication of those objects.
This document provides the protocol for doing so.

In order to make participation in the RPKI easier, it is helpful to
have a few consolidated repositories for RPKI objects, thus saving
every participant from the cost of maintaining a new service.
Similarly, relying parties using the RPKI objects will find it faster
and more reliable to retrieve the necessary set from a smaller number
of repositories.

The XML schema for this protocol (including both subprotocols) is
below in Section 3.5. Both subprotocols use the same basic XML
message format, which looks like:

The object supports five actions: "create", "set", "get",

which is used in responses and must be specified in "create", "set",
"get", or "destroy" actions.

+5. Operational Considerations
+
+ There are two basic options open to the repository operator as to how
+ the publication tree is laid out. The first option is simple: each
+ publication client is given its own directory one level below the top
+ of the rcynic module, and there is no overlap between the publication
+ spaces used by different clients. For example:
+
+ rsync://example.org/rpki/Alice/
+ rsync://example.org/rpki/Bob/
+ rsync://example.org/rpki/Carol/
+
+ This has the advantage of being very easy for the publication
+ operator to manage, but has the drawback of making it difficult for
+ relying parties to fetch published objects both safely and as
+ efficiently as possible.
+
+ Given that the mandatory-to-implement retrieval protocol for relying
+ parties is rsync, a more efficient repository structure would be one
+ which minimized the number of rsync fetches required. One such
+ structure would be one in which the publication directories for
+ subjects were placed underneath the publication directories of their
+ issuers: since the normal synchronization tree walk is top-down, this
+ can significantly reduce the total number of rsync connections
+ required to synchronize. For example:
+
+ rsync://example.org/rpki/Alice/
+ rsync://example.org/rpki/Alice/Bob/
+ rsync://example.org/rpki/Alice/Bob/Carol/
+
+ Preliminary measurement suggests that, in the case of large numbers
+ of small publication directories, the time needed to set up and tear
+ down individual rsync connections becomes significant, and that a
+ properly optimized tree structure can reduce synchronization time by
+ an order of magnitude.
+
+ The more complex tree structure does require careful attention to the
+ base_uri attribute values when setting up clients. In the example
+ above, assuming that Alice issues to Bob who in turn issues to Carol,
+ Alice has ceded control of a portion of her publication space to Bob,
+ who has in turn ceded a portion of that to Carol, and the base_uri
+ attributes in the setup messages should reflect this.
+
+ The details of how the repository operator determines that Alice has
+ given Bob permission to nest Bob's publication directory under
+ Alice's is outside the scope of this protocol.

+7. Security Considerations
-7. References
+ The RPKI publication protocol and the data it publishes use entirely
+ separate PKIs for authentication. The published data is
+ authenticated within the RPKI, and this protocol has nothing to do
+ with that authentication, nor does it require that the published
+ objects be valid in the RPKI. The publication protocol uses a
+ separate Business PKI (BPKI) to authenticate its messages.
-7.1. Normative References
+ Each of the RPKI publication protocol messages is CMS-signed.
+ Because of that protection at the application layer, this protocol
+ does not require the use of HTTPS or other transport security
+ mechanisms.

+ Compromise of a publication server, perhaps through mismanagement of
+ BPKI keys, could lead to a denial-of-service attack on the RPKI. An
+ attacker gaining access to BPKI keys could use this protocol delete
+ (withdraw) RPKI objects, leading to routing changes or failures.
+ Accordingly, as in most PKIs, good key management practices are
+ important.
