1. Introduction
This document specifies the format of the subjectPublicKeyInfo field
in X.509 certificates [PKI] that use Elliptic Curve Cryptography
(ECC). It updates RFC 3279 [PKI-ALG]. This document specifies the
encoding formats for public keys used with the following ECC
algorithms:
o Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA);
o Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) family schemes; and
o Elliptic Curve Menezes-Qu-Vanstone (ECMQV) family schemes.
Two methods for specifying the algorithms that can be used with the
subjectPublicKey are defined. One method does not restrict the
algorithms the key can be used with while the other method does
restrict the algorithms the key can be used with. To promote
interoperability, this document indicates which is required to
implement for Certification Authorities (CAs) that implement ECC
algorithms and relying parties that claim to process ECC algorithms.
The ASN.1 module in this document includes ASN.1 for ECC algorithms.
It also includes ASN.1 for non-ECC algorithms defined in [PKI-ALG]
and [PKI-ADALG] even though the associated text is unaffected. By

Internet-Draft ECC SubjectPublicKeyInfo Format November 2008
updating all of the ASN.1 from [PKI-ALG] in this document,
implementers only need to use the module found in this document.
1.1. Terminology
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 [MUSTSHOULD].
2. Subject Public Key Information Fields
In the X.509 certificate, the subjectPublicKeyInfo field has the
SubjectPublicKeyInfo type, which has the following ASN.1 syntax:
SubjectPublicKeyInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
algorithm AlgorithmIdentifier,
subjectPublicKey BIT STRING
}
The fields in SubjectPublicKeyInfo have the following meanings:
o algorithm is the algorithm identifier and parameters for the
ECC public key.
o subjectPublicKey is the ECC public key. See Section 2.2.
The AlgorithmIdentifier type, which is included for convenience
[PKI], is defined as follows:
AlgorithmIdentifier ::= SEQUENCE {
algorithm OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
parameters ANY DEFINED BY algorithm OPTIONAL
}
The fields in AlgorithmIdentifier have the following meanings:
o algorithm identifies the cryptographic algorithm with an object
identifier. See Section 2.1.
o parameters, which are optional, are the associated parameters
for the algorithm identifier in the algorithm field. See
Section 2.1.1.

Internet-Draft ECC SubjectPublicKeyInfo Format November 2008
2.1. Elliptic Curve Cryptography Public Key Algorithm Identifiers
The algorithm field in the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure [PKI]
indicates the algorithm and any associated parameters for the ECC
public key (see Section 2.2). Three algorithm identifiers are
defined in this document:
o id-ecPublicKey indicates that the algorithms that can be used
with the subject public key is unrestricted. The key is only
restricted by the values indicated in the key usage certificate
extension (see Section 3). id-ecPublicKey MUST be supported.
See Section 2.1.1. This value is also included in certificates
when a public key is used with ECDSA.
o id-ecDH indicates that the algorithm that can be used with the
subject public key is restricted to the Elliptic Curve Diffie-
Hellman algorithm. See Section 2.1.2. id-ecDH MAY be
supported.
o id-ecMQV indicates that the algorithm that can be used with the
subject public key is restricted to the Elliptic Curve Menezes-
Qu-Vanstone key agreement algorithm. See Section 2.1.2. id-
ecMQV MAY be supported.
2.1.1. Unrestricted Algorithm Identifier and Parameters
The "unrestricted" algorithm identifier is:
id-ecPublicKey OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) member-body(2) us(840) ansi-X9-62(10045) keyType(2) 1 }
The public key (ECPoint) syntax is described in Section 2.2.
The parameter for id-ecPublicKey is as follows and MUST always be
present:
ECParameters ::= CHOICE {
namedCurve OBJECT IDENTIFIER
-- implicitCurve NULL
-- specifiedCurve SpecifiedECDomain
}
-- implicitCurve and specifiedCurve MUST NOT be used in PKIX.
-- Details for SpecifiedECDomain can be found in [X9.62].
-- Any future additions to this CHOICE should be coordinated
-- with ANSI X9.
Turner, et al Expires June 11, 2009 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft ECC SubjectPublicKeyInfo Format November 2008
The fields in ECParameters have the following meanings:
o namedCurve identifies all the required values for a particular
set of elliptic curve domain parameters to be represented by an
object identifier. This choice MUST be supported. See Section
2.1.1.1.
o implicitCurve allows the elliptic curve domain parameters to be
inherited. This choice MUST NOT be used.
o specifiedCurve, which is of type SpecifiedECDomain type
(defined in [X9.62]), allows all of the elliptic curve domain
parameters to be explicitly specified. This choice MUST NOT be
used. See the ASN.1 Considerations section.
The addition of any new choices in ECParameters needs to be
coordinated with ANSI X9.
The AlgorithmIdentifier within subjectPublicKeyInfo is the only place
within a certificate where the elliptic curve domain parameters may
be located. If the elliptic curve domain parameters are not present,
then clients MUST reject the certificate.
2.1.1.1. Named Curve
The namedCurve field in ECParameters uses object identifiers to name
well known curves. This document publishes curve identifiers for the
fifteen NIST recommended curves [FIPS186-3]. Other documents can
publish other name curve identifiers. The NIST named curves are:
-- Note that in [X9.62] the curves are referred to as 'ansiX9' as
-- opposed to 'sec'. For example secp192r1 is the same curve as
-- ansix9p192r1.
-- Note that in [PKI-ALG] the secp192r1 curve was referred to as
-- prime192v1 and the secp256r1 curve was referred to as
-- prime256v1.
-- Note that [FIPS186-3] refers to secp192r1 as P-192, secp224r1 as
-- P-224, secp256r1 as P-256, secp384r1 as P-384, and secp521r1 as
-- P-521.
secp192r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) member-body(2) us(840) ansi-X9-62(10045) curves(3)
prime(1) 1 }
Turner, et al Expires June 11, 2009 [Page 5]

sect163r2 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 15 }
secp224r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 33 }
sect233k1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 26 }
sect233r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 27 }
secp256r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) member-body(2) us(840) ansi-X9-62(10045) curves(3)
prime(1) 7 }
sect283k1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 16 }
sect283r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 17 }
secp384r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 34 }
sect409k1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 36 }
sect409r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 37 }
secp521r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 35 }
sect571k1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 38 }
sect571r1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) curve(0) 39 }
2.1.2. Restricted Algorithm Identifiers and Parameters
Two "restricted" algorithms are defined for key agreement algorithms:
the Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key agreement family schemes
Turner, et al Expires June 11, 2009 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft ECC SubjectPublicKeyInfo Format November 2008
and the Elliptic Curve Menezes-Qu-Vanstone (ECMQV) key agreement
family schemes. Both algorithms are identified by an object
identifier and have parameters. The object identifier varies based
on the algorithm but the parameters are always ECParameters and they
MUST always be present (see Section 2.1.1).
The ECDH algorithm uses the following object identifier:
id-ecDH OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) schemes(1)
ecdh(12) }
The ECMQV algorithm uses the following object identifier:
id-ecMQV OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= {
iso(1) identified-organization(3) certicom(132) schemes(1)
ecmqv(13) }
2.2. Subject Public Key
The subjectPublicKey from SubjectPublicKeyInfo is the ECC public key.
ECC public keys have the following syntax:
ECPoint ::= OCTET STRING
Implementations of elliptic curve cryptography according to this
document MUST support the uncompressed form and MAY support the
compressed form of the ECC public key. The hybrid form of the ECC
public key from [X9.62] MUST NOT be used. As specified in [SEC1]:
o The elliptic curve public key (a value of type ECPoint which is
an OCTET STRING) is mapped to a subjectPublicKey (a value of
type BIT STRING) as follows: the most significant bit of the
OCTET STRING value becomes the most significant bit of the BIT
STRING value, and so on; the least significant bit of the OCTET
STRING becomes the least significant bit of the BIT STRING.
Conversion routines are found in Sections 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 of
[SEC1].
o The first octet of the OCTET STRING indicates whether the key
is compressed or uncompressed. The uncompressed form is
indicated by 0x04 and the compressed form is indicated by
either 0x02 or 0x03 (see 2.3.3 in [SEC1]). The public key MUST
be rejected if any other value is included in the first octet.

3. Key Usage Bits
If the keyUsage extension is present in a Certification Authority
(CA) certificate that indicates id-ecPublicKey in
subjectPublicKeyInfo, then any combination of the following values
MAY be present:
digitalSignature;
nonRepudiation;
keyAgreement;
keyCertSign; and
cRLSign.
If the CA certificate keyUsage extension asserts keyAgreement, then
it MAY assert either encipherOnly or decipherOnly. However, this
specification RECOMMENDS that if keyCertSign or cRLSign is present,
then keyAgreement, encipherOnly, and decipherOnly SHOULD NOT be
present.
If the keyUsage extension is present in an End Entity (EE)
certificate that indicates id-ecPublicKey in subjectPublicKeyInfo,
then any combination of the following values MAY be present:
digitalSignature;
nonRepudiation; and
keyAgreement.
If the EE certificate keyUsage extension asserts keyAgreement, then
it MAY assert either encipherOnly or decipherOnly.
If the keyUsage extension is present in a certificate that indicates
id-ecDH or id-ecMQV in subjectPublicKeyInfo, then the following MUST
be present:
keyAgreement;
one of the following MAY be present:
encipherOnly; or
decipherOnly.
If the keyUsage extension is present in a certificate that indicates
id-ecDH or id-ecMQV in subjectPublicKeyInfo, then the following
values MUST NOT be present:
digitalSignature;
nonRepudiation;
Turner, et al Expires June 11, 2009 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft ECC SubjectPublicKeyInfo Format November 2008
keyTransport;
keyCertSign; and
cRLSign.
4. Security Considerations
The security considerations in [PKI-ALG] apply.
When implementing ECC in X.509 Certificates and Certificate
Revocation Lists (CRLs), there are three algorithm related choices
that need to be made for the signatureAlgorithm field in a
Certificate:
1) What is the public key size?
2) What is the hash algorithm [FIPS180-3]?
3) What is the curve?
Consideration must be given by the CA to the strength of the security
provided by each of these choices. Security is measured in bits,
where a strong symmetric cipher with a key of X bits is said to
provide X bits of security. It is recommended that the bits of
security provided by each choice are roughly equivalent. The
following table provides comparable minimum bits of security [SP800-
57] for the ECDSA key sizes and message digest algorithms. It also
lists curves (see Section 2.1.1.1) for the key sizes.

To promote interoperability, the following choices are RECOMMENDED:
Minimum | ECDSA | Message | Curves
Bits of | Key Size | Digest |
Security | | Algorithms |
---------+----------+------------+-----------
80 | 192 | SHA-256 | secp192r1

192 | 384 | SHA-384 | secp384r1
---------+----------+------------+-----------
256 | 512 | SHA-512 | secp521r1
---------+----------+------------+-----------
Using a larger hash value and then truncating it, consumes more
processing power than is necessary. This is more important on
Turner, et al Expires June 11, 2009 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft ECC SubjectPublicKeyInfo Format November 2008
constrained devices. Since the signer does not know the environment
that the recipient will use to validate the signature, it is better
to use a hash function that provides the desired hash value output
size, and no more.
There are security risks with using keys not associated with well
known and widely reviewed curves. For example, the curve may not
satisfy the Menezes-Okamoto-Vanstone (MOV) condition [X9.62] or the
curve may be vulnerable to the Anomalous attack [X9.62].
Additionally, either a) all of the arithmetic properties of a
candidate ECC public key must be validated to ensure that it has the
unique correct representation in the correct (additive) subgroup (and
therefore is also in the correct EC group) specified by the
associated ECC domain parameters or b) some of the arithmetic
properties of a candidate ECC public key must be validated to ensure
that it is in the correct group (but not necessarily the correct
subgroup) specified by the associated ECC domain parameters [SP800-
56A].
As noted in [PKI-ALG], the use of MD2 and MD5 for new applications is
discouraged. It is still reasonable to use MD2 and MD5 to verify
existing signatures.
5. ASN.1 Considerations
[X9.62] defines additional options for ECParameters and ECDSA-Sig-
Value [PKI-ALG]. If an implementation needs to use these options,
then use the [X9.62] ASN.1 module. This RFC contains a conformant
subset of the ASN.1 module defined in [X9.62].
If an implementation generates a PER [X.691] encoding using the ASN.1
module found in this specification, it might not achieve the same
encoded output as one that uses the [X9.62] module. PER is not
required by either the PKIX or S/MIME environments. If an
implementation environment requires PER, then implementation concerns
are less likely with the use of the [X9.62] module.
6. IANA Considerations
This document makes extensive use of object identifiers to register
public key types, elliptic curves, and algorithms. Most are
registered in the ANSI X9.62 arc with the exception of the hash
algorithms, which are in NIST arc, and many of the curves, which are
in the Certicom Inc. arc (these curves have been adopted by ANSI and
NIST). Additionally, an object identifier is used to identify the
ASN.1 module found in Appendix A. It is defined in an arc delegated

Internet-Draft ECC SubjectPublicKeyInfo Format November 2008
by IANA to the PKIX Working Group. No further action by IANA is
necessary for this document or any anticipated updates.
