Internet-Draft | C509 Certificates | July 2023 |
Preuß Mattsson, et al. | Expires 8 January 2024 | [Page] |
This document specifies a CBOR encoding of X.509 certificates. The resulting certificates are called C509 Certificates. The CBOR encoding supports a large subset of RFC 5280 and all certificates compatible with the RFC 7925, IEEE 802.1AR (DevID), CNSA, RPKI, GSMA eUICC, and CA/Browser Forum Baseline Requirements profiles. When used to re-encode DER encoded X.509 certificates, the CBOR encoding can in many cases reduce the size of RFC 7925 profiled certificates with over 50%. The CBOR encoded structure can alternatively be signed directly ("natively signed"), which does not require re-encoding for the signature to be verified. The document also specifies C509 COSE headers, a C509 TLS certificate type, and a C509 file format.¶

One of the challenges with deploying a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for the Internet of Things (IoT) is the size and parsing of X.509 public key certificates [RFC5280], since those are not optimized for constrained environments [RFC7228]. Large certificate chains are also problematic in non-constrained protocols such as EAP-TLS [RFC9190] [RFC9191] where authenticators typically drop an EAP session after only 40 - 50 round-trips, QUIC [RFC9000] where the latency increases significantly unless the server sends less than three times as many bytes as received prior to validating the client address, and RPKI [RFC6487] where a single certificate can be very large. More compact certificate representations are therefore desirable in many use cases. Due to the current PKI usage of DER encoded X.509 certificates, keeping compatibility with DER encoded X.509 is necessary at least for a transition period. However, the use of a more compact encoding with the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) [RFC8949] reduces the certificate size significantly which has known performance benefits in terms of decreased communication overhead, power consumption, latency, storage, etc.¶
CBOR is a data format designed for small code size and small message size. CBOR builds on the JSON data model but extends it by e.g. encoding binary data directly without base64 conversion. In addition to the binary CBOR encoding, CBOR also has a diagnostic notation that is readable and editable by humans. The Concise Data Definition Language (CDDL) [RFC8610] provides a way to express structures for protocol messages and APIs that use CBOR. RFC 8610 also extends the diagnostic notation.¶
CBOR data items are encoded to or decoded from byte strings using a type-length-value encoding scheme, where the three highest order bits of the initial byte contain information about the major type. CBOR supports several different types of data items, in addition to integers (int, uint), simple values (e.g. null), byte strings (bstr), and text strings (tstr), CBOR also supports arrays [] of data items, maps {} of pairs of data items, and sequences of data items. For a complete specification and examples, see [RFC8949], [RFC8610], and [RFC8742]. We recommend implementors to get used to CBOR by using the CBOR playground [CborMe].¶
CAB Baseline Requirements [CAB-TLS], RFC 7925 [RFC7925], IEEE 802.1AR [IEEE-802.1AR], and CNSA [RFC8603] specify certificate profiles which can be applied to certificate based authentication with, e.g., TLS [RFC8446], QUIC [RFC9000], DTLS [RFC9147], COSE [RFC9052], EDHOC [I-D.ietf-lake-edhoc], or Compact TLS 1.3 [I-D.ietf-tls-ctls]. RFC 7925 [RFC7925], RFC7925bis [I-D.ietf-uta-tls13-iot-profile], and IEEE 802.1AR [IEEE-802.1AR] specifically target Internet of Things deployments. This document specifies a CBOR encoding based on [X.509-IoT], which can support large parts of RFC 5280. The encoding supports all RFC 7925, IEEE 802.1AR, CAB Baseline [CAB-TLS], [CAB-Code], RPKI [RFC6487], eUICC [GSMA-eUICC] profiled X.509 certificates. The resulting certificates are called C509 Certificates. This document does not specify a certificate profile. Two variants are defined using the same CBOR encoding and differing only in what is being signed:¶
Natively signed C509 certificates can be applied in devices that are only required to authenticate to natively signed C509 certificate compatible servers, which is not a major restriction for many IoT deployments where the parties issuing and verifying certificates can be a restricted ecosystem.¶
This document specifies COSE headers for use of the C509 certificates with COSE, see Section 11.11. The document also specifies a TLS certificate type for use of the C509 certificates with TLS and QUIC (with or without additional TLS certificate compression), see Section 11.13.¶
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 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.¶
This specification makes use of the terminology in [RFC5280], [RFC7228], [RFC8610], and [RFC8949]. When referring to CBOR, this specification always refers to Deterministically Encoded CBOR as specified in Sections 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 of [RFC8949].¶
This section specifies the content and encoding for C509 certificates, with the overall objective to produce a very compact representation supporting large parts of [RFC5280], and everything in [RFC7925], [IEEE-802.1AR], RPKI [RFC6487], GSMA eUICC [GSMA-eUICC], and CAB Baseline [CAB-TLS] [CAB-Code]. In the CBOR encoding, static fields are elided, elliptic curve points and time values are compressed, OID are replaced with short integers, and redundant encoding is removed. Combining these different components reduces the certificate size significantly, which is not possible with general purpose compression algorithms, see Figure 5.¶
The C509 certificate can be either a CBOR re-encoding of a DER encoded X.509 certificate, in which case the signature is calculated on the DER encoded ASN.1 data in the X.509 certificate, or a natively signed C509 certificate, in which case the signature is calculated directly on the CBOR encoded data. In both cases the certificate content is adhering to the restrictions given by [RFC5280]. The re-encoding is known to work with DER encoded certificates but might work with other canonical encodings. The re-encoding does not work for BER encoded certificates.¶
In the encoding described below, the order of elements in arrays are always encoded in the same order as the elements or the corresponding SEQUENCE or SET in the DER encoding.¶
The X.509 fields and their CBOR encodings are listed below, and used in the definition of C509 certificates, see Figure 1.¶
C509 certificates are defined in terms of DER encoded [RFC5280] X.509 certificates:¶
The following Concise Data Definition Language (CDDL) defines the CBOR array C509Certificate and the CBOR sequence [RFC8742] TBSCertificate. The member names therefore only have documentary value. Applications not requiring a CBOR item MAY represent C509 certificates with the CBOR sequence ~C509Certificate (unwrapped C509Certificate).¶
For RSA public keys (rsaEncryption), the SEQUENCE and INTEGER type and length fields are omitted and the two INTEGER value fields (modulus, exponent) are encoded as an array of two unwrapped CBOR unsigned bignum (~biguint), i.e. [ modulus : ~biguint, exponent : ~biguint ]. If the exponent is 65537, the array and the exponent is omitted and subjectPublicKey consist of only the modulus encoded as an unwrapped CBOR unsigned bignum (~biguint).¶
For elliptic curve public keys in Weierstraß form (id-ecPublicKey), keys may be point compressed as defined in Section 2.3.3 of [SECG]. Native C509 certificates with Weierstraß form keys use the octets 0x02, 0x03, and 0x04 as defined in [SECG]. If a DER encoded certificate with a uncompressed public key of type id-ecPublicKey is CBOR encoded with point compression, the octets 0xfe and 0xfd are used instead of 0x02 and 0x03 in the CBOR encoding to represent even and odd y-coordinate, respectively.¶
For ECDSA signatures, the SEQUENCE and INTEGER type and length fields as well as the any leading 0x00 byte (to indicate that the number is not negative) are omitted. If the two INTEGER value fields have different lengths, the shorter INTEGER value field is padded with zeroes so that the two fields have the same length. The resulting byte string is encoded as a CBOR byte string.¶
This section details the encoding of the 'extensions' field. The 'extensions' field is encoded as a CBOR array where each extensionID is encoded either as a CBOR int or as an unwrapped CBOR OID tag. If 'extensionID' is encoded an int (see Section 11.3), the sign is used to encode if the extension is critical and the 'critical' field is omitted. Critical extensions are encoded with a negative sign and non-critical extensions are encoded with a positive sign.¶
The 'extnValue' OCTET STRING value field is encoded as the CBOR byte string 'extensionValue' except for the extensions specified below. For some extensions, only commonly used parts are supported by the CBOR encoding. If unsupported parts are used, the CBOR encoding cannot be used.¶
CBOR encoding of the following extension values are fully supported:¶
KeyIdentifier = bytes SubjectKeyIdentifier = KeyIdentifier¶
KeyUsage = int¶
PolicyMappings = [ + (issuerDomainPolicy: ~oid, subjectDomainPolicy: ~oid) ]¶
BasicConstraints = int¶
PolicyConstraints = [ requireExplicitPolicy: uint / null, inhibitPolicyMapping: uint / null, ]¶
KeyPurposeId = int / ~oid ExtKeyUsageSyntax = [ 2* KeyPurposeId ] / KeyPurposeId¶
InhibitAnyPolicy = uint¶
CBOR encoding of the following extension values are partly supported:¶
GeneralName = ( GeneralNameType : int, GeneralNameValue : any ) GeneralNames = [ + GeneralName ] SubjectAltName = GeneralNames / text¶
IssuerAltName = GeneralNames / text¶
DistributionPointName = [ 2* text ] / text CRLDistributionPoints = [ + DistributionPointName ]¶
FreshestCRL = CRLDistributionPoints¶
AccessDescription = ( accessMethod: int / ~oid , uri: text ) AuthorityInfoAccessSyntax = [ + AccessDescription ]¶
SubjectInfoAccessSyntax = AuthorityInfoAccessSyntax¶
KeyIdentifierArray = [ keyIdentifier: KeyIdentifier / null, authorityCertIssuer: GeneralNames, authorityCertSerialNumber: CertificateSerialNumber ] AuthorityKeyIdentifier = KeyIdentifierArray / KeyIdentifier¶
PolicyIdentifier = int / ~oid PolicyQualifierInfo = ( policyQualifierId: int / ~oid, qualifier: text, ) CertificatePolicies = [ + ( PolicyIdentifier, ? [ + PolicyQualifierInfo ] ) ]¶
GeneralSubtree = [ GeneralName ] NameConstraints = [ permittedSubtrees: GeneralSubtree / null, excludedSubtrees: GeneralSubtree / null, ]¶
Attributes = ( attributeType: int, attributeValue: [+text] ) // ( attributeType: ~oid, attributeValue: [+bytes] ) SubjectDirectoryAttributes = [+Attributes]¶
AsIdsOrRanges = uint / [uint, uint] ASIdentifiers = [ + AsIdsOrRanges ] / null¶
Address = bytes / uint, AddressPrefix = (Address, unusedBits: uint) AddressRange = [Address, Address] IPAddressOrRange = AddressPrefix / AddressRange IPAddressChoice = [ + IPAddressOrRange ] / null IPAddrBlocks = [ AFI: uint, IPAddressChoice ]¶
SignedCerticateTimestamp = ( logID: bytes, timestamp: int, sigAlg: AlgorithmIdentifier, sigValue: any, ) SignedCertificateTimestamps = [ + SignedCerticateTimestamp ]¶
The examples below use values from Section 11.3, Section 11.7, and Section 11.8:¶
Thus, the extension field of a certificate containing all of the above extensions in the given order would be encoded as the CBOR array [ -4, -1, 2, 17, 8, [ 3, 6 ], 3, "example.com" ].¶
The formatting and processing for c5b, c5c, and c5t, and c5u, defined in Table 1 are similar to x5bag, x5chain, x5t, x5u defined in [RFC9360] except that the certificates are C509 instead of DER encoded X.509 and uses a COSE_C509 structure instead of COSE_X509. c5u provides an alternative way to identify an untrusted certificate bag/chain by reference with a URI. The content is a COSE_C509 item served with the application/cose-c509 content format. The COSE_C509 structure used in c5b, c5c, and c5u is defined as:¶
COSE_C509 = C509Certificate / [ 2* C509Certificate ]¶
As the contents of c5b, c5c, c5t, and c5u are untrusted input, the header parameters can be in either the protected or unprotected header bucket. The trust mechanism MUST process any certificates in the c5b, c5c, and c5u parameters as untrusted input. The presence of a self-signed certificate in the parameter MUST NOT cause the update of the set of trust anchors without some out-of-band confirmation.¶
Name | Label | Value Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|
c5b | TBD1 | COSE_C509 | An unordered bag of C509 certificates |
c5c | TBD2 | COSE_C509 | An ordered chain of C509 certificates |
c5t | TBD3 | COSE_CertHash | Hash of a C509Certificate |
c5u | TBD4 | uri | URI pointing to a COSE_C509 containing a ordered chain of certificates |
Note that certificates can also be identified with a 'kid' header parameter by storing 'kid' and the associated bag or chain in a dictionary.¶
The section defines the C509 Certificate Signing Request (CSR) format based on and compatible with RFC 2986 [RFC2986] reusing the formatting for C509 certificates defined in Section 3. There are currently two c509CertificateSigningRequestType values defined, c509CertificateSigningRequestType = 0 requests a c509CertificateType = 0 and c509CertificateSigningRequestType = 1 requests a c509CertificateType = 1 . subjectProofOfPossessionAlgorithm can be a C509 signature algorithm or a non-signature Proof-of-Possession Algorithm as defined in e.g. RFC 6955. CSR attributes other than extensionRequest are not supported.¶
After verifying the subjectProofOfPossessionValue, the CA MAY transform the C509CertificateSigningRequest into a RFC 2985 CertificationRequestInfo for compatibility with existing procedures and code.¶
The section defines the C509 Certificate Revocation List (CRL) format based on and compatible with [RFC5280] reusing the formatting for C509 certificates defined in Section 3.¶
It is straightforward to integrate the C509 format into legacy X.509 processing during certificate issuance. C509 processing can be performed as an isolated function of the CA, or as a separate function trusted by the CA.¶
The CSR format defined in Section 4 follows the PKCS#10 format to enable a direct mapping to the certification request information, see Section 4.1 of [RFC2986].¶
When a certificate request is received the CA, or function trusted by the CA, needs to perform some limited C509 processing and verify the proof of possession of the public key, before normal certificate generation can take place.¶
In the reverse direction, in case c509CertificateType = 1 was requested, a separate C509 processing function can perform the conversion from a generated X.509 certificate to C509 as a bump-in-the-wire. In case c509CertificateType = 0 was requested, the C509 processing needs to be performed before signing the certificate, in which case a tighter integration with CA may be needed.¶
C509 certificates can be deployed with legacy X.509 certificates and CA infrastructure. In order to verify the signature, the C509 certificate is used to recreate the original X.509 data structure to be able to verify the signature.¶
For protocols like TLS/DTLS 1.2, where the handshake is sent unencrypted, the actual encoding and compression can be done at different locations depending on the deployment setting. For example, the mapping between C509 certificate and standard X.509 certificate can take place in a 6LoWPAN border gateway which allows the server side to stay unmodified. This case gives the advantage of the low overhead of a C509 certificate over a constrained wireless links. The conversion to X.509 within an IoT device will incur a computational overhead, however, measured in energy this is likely to be negligible compared to the reduced communication overhead.¶
For the setting with constrained server and server-only authentication, the server only needs to be provisioned with the C509 certificate and does not perform the conversion to X.509. This option is viable when client authentication can be asserted by other means.¶
For protocols like IKEv2, TLS/DTLS 1.3, and EDHOC, where certificates are encrypted, the proposed encoding needs to be done fully end-to-end, through adding the encoding/decoding functionality to the server.¶
The CBOR encoding of the sample certificate chains given in Appendix A results in the numbers shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5. COSE_X509 is defined in [RFC9360] and COSE_C509 is defined in Section 11.11. After RFC 7925 profiling, most duplicated information has been removed, and the remaining text strings are minimal in size. Therefore, the further size reduction reached with general compression mechanisms such as Brotli will be small, mainly corresponding to making the ASN.1 encoding more compact. CBOR encoding can however significantly compress RFC 7925 profiled certificates. For the example HTTPS certificate chains (www.ietf.org and tools.ietf.org) both C509 and Brotli perform well complementing each other. C509 use dedicated information to compress individual certificates, while Brotli can compress duplicate information in the entire chain. Note that C509 certificates of type 0 and 1 have the same size. For Brotli [RFC7932], the Rust crate Brotli 3.3.0 was used with compression level 11 and window size 22.¶
The CBOR profiling of X.509 certificates does not change the security assumptions needed when deploying standard X.509 certificates but decreases the number of fields transmitted, which reduces the risk for implementation errors.¶
The use of natively signed C509 certificates removes the need for ASN.1 encoding, which is a rich source of security vulnerabilities.¶
Conversion between the certificate formats can be made in constant time to reduce risk of information leakage through side channels.¶
The mechanism in this draft does not reveal any additional information compared to X.509. Because of difference in size, it will be possible to detect that this profile is used. The gateway solution described in Section 8 requires unencrypted certificates and is not recommended.¶
This document creates several new registries under the new heading "C509 Certificate". For all items, the 'Reference' field points to this document.¶
The expert reviewers for the registries defined in this document are expected to ensure that the usage solves a valid use case that could not be solved better in a different way, that it is not going to duplicate one that is already registered, and that the registered point is likely to be used in deployments. They are furthermore expected to check the clarity of purpose and use of the requested code points. Experts should take into account the expected usage of entries when approving point assignment, and the length of the encoded value should be weighed against the number of code points left that encode to that size and how constrained the systems it will be used on are. Values in the interval [-24, 23] have a 1 byte encodings, other values in the interval [-256, 255] have a 2 byte encodings, and the remaining values in the interval [-65536, 65535] have 3 byte encodings.¶

This document registers the following entry in the "TLS Certificate Types" registry under the "Transport Layer Security (TLS) Extensions" heading. The new certificate type can be used with additional TLS certificate compression [RFC8879]. C509 is defined in the same way as as X509, but uses a different value and instead of DER-encoded X.509 certificate, opaque cert_data<1..2^24-1> contains a the CBOR sequence ~C509Certificate (an unwrapped C509Certificate).¶
EDITOR'S NOTE: The TLS registrations should be discussed and approved by the TLS WG at a later stage. When COSE WG has adopted work on C509 certificates, it could perhaps be presented in the TLS WG. The TLS WG might e.g. want a separate draft in the TLS WG.¶
