1. Introduction
This document defines a YANG [RFC6020] data module for a system-level
keychain mechanism, which can be used to hold onto private keys and
certificates that are trusted by the system advertising support for
this module.
This module provides a centralized location for security sensitive
data, so that the data can be then referenced by other modules.
There are two types of data that are maintained by this module:
o Private keys, and any associated public certificates.
o Sets of trusted certificates.
This document extends special consideration for systems that have
Trusted Protection Modules (TPMs). These systems are unique in that
the TPM must be directed to generate new private keys (it is not
possible to load a private key into a TPM) and it is not possible to
backup/restore the TPM's private keys as configuration.
Watsen & Wu Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft System Keychain Model July 2016
It is not required that a system has an operating system level
keychain utility to implement this module.
1.1. Terminology
The keywords "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].
1.2. Tree Diagrams
A simplified graphical representation of the data models is used in
this document. The meaning of the symbols in these diagrams is as
follows:
o Brackets "[" and "]" enclose list keys.
o Braces "{" and "}" enclose feature names, and indicate that the
named feature must be present for the subtree to be present.
o Abbreviations before data node names: "rw" means configuration
(read-write) and "ro" state data (read-only).
o Symbols after data node names: "?" means an optional node, "!"
means a presence container, and "*" denotes a list and leaf-list.
o Parentheses enclose choice and case nodes, and case nodes are also
marked with a colon (":").
o Ellipsis ("...") stands for contents of subtrees that are not
shown.
2. The System Keychain Model
The system keychain module defined in this section provides a
configurable object having the following characteristics:
o A semi-configurable list of private keys, each with one or more
associated certificates. Private keys MUST be either preinstalled
(e.g., a key associated to an IDevID [Std-802.1AR-2009]
certificate), be generated by request, or be loaded by request.
Each private key is MAY have associated certificates, either
preinstalled or configured after creation.
o A configurable list of lists of trust anchor certificates. This
enables the server to have use-case specific trust anchors. For
instance, one list of trust anchors might be used to authenticate
management connections (e.g., client certificate-based
Watsen & Wu Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft System Keychain Model July 2016
authentication for NETCONF or RESTCONF connections), and a
different list of trust anchors might be used for when connecting
to a specific Internet-based service (e.g., a zero touch bootstrap
server).
o An RPC to generate a certificate signing request for an existing
private key, a passed subject, and an optional attributes. The
signed certificate returned from an external certificate authority
(CA) can be later set using a standard configuration change
request (e.g., <edit-config>).
o An RPC to request the server to generate a new private key using
the specified algorithm and key length.
o An RPC to request the server to load a new private key.
2.1. Overview
The system keychain module has the following tree diagram. Please

The following example illustrates what a fully configured keychain
object might look like. The private-key shown below is consistent
with the generate-private-key and generate-certificate-signing-
request examples above. This example also assumes that the resulting
CA-signed certificate has been configured back onto the server.
Lastly, this example shows that three lists of trusted certificates
having been configured.

3. Design Considerations
This document uses PKCS #10 [RFC2986] for the "generate-certificate-
signing-request" action. The use of Certificate Request Message
Format (CRMF) [RFC4211] was considered, but is was unclear if there
was market demand for it, and so support for CRMF has been left out
of this specification. If it is desired to support CRMF in the
future, placing a "choice" statement in both the input and output
statements, along with an "if-feature" statement on the CRMF option,
would enable a backwards compatible solution.
This document puts a limit of the number of elliptical curves
supported by default. This was done to match industry trends in IETF
best practice (e.g., matching work being done in TLS 1.3). If
additional algorithms are needed, they MAY be augmented in by another
module, or added directly in a future version of this document.
Both this document and Key Chain YANG Data Model
[draft-ietf-rtgwg-yang-key-chain] define keychain YANG modules. The
Watsen & Wu Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 28]
Internet-Draft System Keychain Model July 2016
authors looked at this and agree that they two modules server
different purposes and hence not worth merging into one document. To
underscore this further, this document renamed its module from "ietf-
keychain" to "ietf-system-keychain" and that other document renamed
its module from "ietf-key-chain" to "ietf-routing-key-chain".
For the trusted-certificates list, Trust Anchor Format [RFC5914] was
evaluated and deemed inappropriate due to this document's need to
also support pinning. That is, pinning a client-certificate to
support NETCONF over TLS client authentication.
4. Security Considerations
This document defines a keychain mechanism that is entrusted with the
safe keeping of private keys, and the safe keeping of trusted
certificates. Nowhere in this API is there an ability to access
(read out) a private key once it is known to the keychain. Further,
associated public keys and attributes (e.g., algorithm name, key
length, etc.) are read-only. That said, this document allows for the
deletion of private keys and their certificates, as well the deletion
of trusted certificates. Access control mechanisms (e.g., NACM
[RFC6536]) MUST be in place so as to authorize such client actions.
Further, whilst the data model allows for private keys and trusted
certificates in general to be deleted, implementations should be well
aware that some privates keys (e.g., those in a TPM) and some trusted
certificates, should never be deleted, regardless if the
authorization mechanisms would generally allow for such actions.
For the "generate-certificate-signing-request" action, it is
RECOMMENDED that devices implement assert channel binding [RFC5056],
so as to ensure that the application layer that sent the request is
the same as the device authenticated in the secure transport layer
was established.
This document defines a data model that includes a list of private
keys. These private keys MAY be deleted using standard NETCONF or
RESTCONF operations (e.g., <edit-config>). Implementations SHOULD
automatically (without explicit request) zeroize these keys in the
most secure manner available, so as to prevent the remnants of their
persisted storage locations from being analyzed in any meaningful
way.
The keychain module define within this document defines the "load-
private-key" action enabling a device to load a client-supplied
private key. This is a private key with no shrouding to protect it.
The strength of this private key MUST NOT be greater than the
strength of the underlying secure transport connection over which it
is communicated. Devices SHOULD fail this request if ever the
Watsen & Wu Expires January 9, 2017 [Page 29]
Internet-Draft System Keychain Model July 2016
strength of the private key is greater then the strength of the
underlying transport.
5. IANA Considerations
5.1. The IETF XML Registry
This document registers one URI in the IETF XML registry [RFC2119].
Following the format in [RFC3688], the following registration is
requested:
URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-system-keychain
Registrant Contact: The NETCONF WG of the IETF.
XML: N/A, the requested URI is an XML namespace.
5.2. The YANG Module Names Registry
This document registers one YANG module in the YANG Module Names
registry [RFC6020]. Following the format in [RFC6020], the the
following registration is requested:
name: ietf-system-keychain
namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-system-keychain
prefix: kc
reference: RFC VVVV

o This draft was split out from draft-ietf-netconf-server-model-09.
o Removed key-usage parameter from generate-private-key action.
