A YANG Data Model for a Truststore
draft-ietf-netconf-trust-anchors-08
Abstract
This document defines a YANG 1.1 data model for configuring global
sets of X.509 certificates, SSH host-keys, raw public keys, and PSKs
(pairwise-symmetric or pre-shared keys) that can be referenced by
other data models for trust. While the SSH host-keys are uniquely
for the SSH protocol, certificates, raw public keys, and PSKs may
have multiple uses, including authenticating protocol peers and
verifying signatures.

1. Introduction
This document defines a YANG 1.1 [RFC7950] data model for configuring
global sets of X.509 certificates, SSH host-keys, raw public keys,
and PSKs (pairwise-symmetric or pre-shared keys) that can be
referenced by other data models for trust. While the SSH host-keys
are uniquely for the SSH protocol, certificates, raw public keys, and
PSKs may have multiple uses, including authenticating protocol peers
and verifying signatures.
This document in compliant with Network Management Datastore
Architecture (NMDA) [RFC8342]. For instance, trust anchors installed
during manufacturing (e.g., for trusted well-known services), are
expected to appear in <operational> (see Section 3).
1.1. Requirements Language
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.
1.2. Tree Diagram Notation
Tree diagrams used in this document follow the notation defined in
[RFC8340].

3. Support for Built-in Trust Anchors
In some implementations, the operating system a device is running,
may define some built-in trust anchors. For instance, there may be
built-in trust anchors enabling the device to securely connect to
well-known services (e.g., an SZTP [RFC8572] bootstap server) or
trust anchors to connect to arbitrary services using public PKI.
Built-in trust anchors are expected to be set by a vendor-specific
process. Any ability for operators to modify built-in trust anchors
is outside the scope of this docuemnt.
As built-in trust anchors are provided by the system (not
configuration), they are present in <operational>. The following
example illustrates bui;t-in trust anchors in <operational>.
(FIXME: add illustration with origin="system" here)
In order for the built-in trust anchors to be referenced by
configuration, they must first be copied into <intended> as the
example in Section 2.2 illustrates for the built-in trust anchors
above. Note that this strategy is chosen, rather then setting
"require-instance false" for the various leafrefs, as built-in trust
anchors are relatively few in number and hence not worth relaxing the
validation for.

4. Security Considerations
The YANG module defined in this document is designed to be accessed
via YANG based management protocols, such as NETCONF [RFC6241] and
RESTCONF [RFC8040]. Both of these protocols have mandatory-to-
implement secure transport layers (e.g., SSH, TLS) with mutual
authentication.
The NETCONF access control model (NACM) [RFC8341] provides the means
to restrict access for particular users to a pre-configured subset of
all available protocol operations and content.
There are a number of data nodes defined in this YANG module that are
writable/creatable/deletable (i.e., config true, which is the
default). These data nodes may be considered sensitive or vulnerable
in some network environments. Write operations (e.g., edit-config)
to these data nodes without proper protection can have a negative
effect on network operations. These are the subtrees and data nodes
and their sensitivity/vulnerability:
/: The entire data tree defined by this module is sensitive to
write operations. For instance, the addition or removal of any
trust anchor may dramatically alter the implemented security
policy. For this reason, the NACM extension "default-deny-
write" has been set for the entire data tree.
None of the readable data nodes in this YANG module are considered
sensitive or vulnerable in network environments.
This module does not define any RPCs, actions, or notifications, and
thus the security consideration for such is not provided here.
5. IANA Considerations

URI: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-truststore
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-truststore
namespace: urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-truststore

Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore November 2019
Appendix A. Change Log
A.1. 00 to 01
o Added features "x509-certificates" and "ssh-host-keys".
o Added nacm:default-deny-write to "trust-anchors" container.
A.2. 01 to 02
o Switched "list pinned-certificate" to use the "trust-anchor-cert-
grouping" from crypto-types. Effectively the same definition as
before.
A.3. 02 to 03
o Updated copyright date, boilerplate template, affiliation, folding
algorithm, and reformatted the YANG module.
A.4. 03 to 04
o Added groupings 'local-or-truststore-certs-grouping' and 'local-
or-truststore-host-keys-grouping', matching similar definitions in
the keystore draft. Note new (and incomplete) "truststore" usage!
o Related to above, also added features 'truststore-supported' and
'local-trust-anchors-supported'.
A.5. 04 to 05
o Renamed "trust-anchors" to "truststore"
o Removed "pinned." prefix everywhere, to match truststore rename
o Moved everything under a top-level 'grouping' to enable use in
other contexts.
o Renamed feature from 'local-trust-anchors-supported' to 'local-
definitions-supported' (same name used in keystore)
o Removed the "require-instance false" statement from the "*-ref"
typedefs.
o Added missing "ssh-host-keys" and "x509-certificates" if-feature
statements

Internet-Draft A YANG Data Model for a Truststore November 2019
A.6. 05 to 06
o Editorial changes only.
A.7. 06 to 07
o Added Henk Birkholz as a co-author (thanks Henk!)
o Added PSKs and raw public keys to Truststore.
A.8. 07 to 08
o Added new "Support for Built-in Trust Anchors" section.
o Removed spurious "uses ct:trust-anchor-certs-grouping" line.
Acknowledgements
The authors especially thank Henk Birkholz for contributing YANG to
the ietf-truststore module supporting raw public keys and PSKs (pre-
shared or pairwise-symmetric keys). While these contributions were
eventually replaced by reusing the existing support for asymmetric
and symmetric trust anchors, respectively, it was only thru Henk's
initiative that the WG was able to come to that result.
The authors additionally thank the following for helping give shape
to this work (ordered by last name): Martin Bjorklund, Nick Hancock,
Balazs Kovacs, Eric Voit, and Liang Xia.
