Abstract
This document describes protocol extensions (hereafter called PKINIT)
to the Kerberos protocol specification. These extensions provide a
method for integrating public key cryptography into the initial
authentication exchange, by using asymmetric-key signature and/or
encryption algorithms in pre-authentication data fields.

Internet-Draft PKINIT February 2005
1. Introduction
A client typically authenticates itself to a service in Kerberos
using three distinct though related exchanges. First, the client
requests a ticket-granting ticket (TGT) from the Kerberos
authentication server (AS). Then, it uses the TGT to request a
service ticket from the Kerberos ticket-granting server (TGS).
Usually, the AS and TGS are integrated in a single device known as a
Kerberos Key Distribution Center, or KDC. (In this document, both
the AS and the TGS are referred to as the KDC.) Finally, the client
uses the service ticket to authenticate itself to the service.
The advantage afforded by the TGT is that the client exposes his
long-term secrets only once. The TGT and its associated session key
can then be used for any subsequent service ticket requests. One
result of this is that all further authentication is independent of
the method by which the initial authentication was performed.
Consequently, initial authentication provides a convenient place to
integrate public-key cryptography into Kerberos authentication.
As defined in [CLAR], Kerberos authentication exchanges use
symmetric-key cryptography, in part for performance. One
disadvantage of using symmetric-key cryptography is that the keys
must be shared, so that before a client can authenticate itself, he
must already be registered with the KDC.
Conversely, public-key cryptography (in conjunction with an
established Public Key Infrastructure) permits authentication without
prior registration with a KDC. Adding it to Kerberos allows the
widespread use of Kerberized applications by clients without
requiring them to register first with a KDC--a requirement that has
no inherent security benefit.
As noted above, a convenient and efficient place to introduce
public-key cryptography into Kerberos is in the initial
authentication exchange. This document describes the methods and
data formats for integrating public-key cryptography into Kerberos
initial authentication.
2. Conventions Used in This Document
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 [RFC2119].
In this document, the encryption key used to encrypt the enc-part
field of the KDC-REP in the AS-REP [CLAR] is referred to as the KDC
AS reply key.

3. Extensions
This section describes extensions to [CLAR] for supporting the use of
public-key cryptography in the initial request for a ticket.
Briefly, this document defines the following extensions to [CLAR]:
1. The client indicates the use of public-key authentication by
including a special preauthenticator in the initial request. This
preauthenticator contains the client's public-key data and a
signature.
2. The KDC tests the client's request against its authentication
policy and trusted Certification Authorities (CAs).
3. If the request passes the verification tests, the KDC replies as
usual, but the reply is encrypted using either:
a. a key generated through a Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchange
[RFC2631][IEEE1363] with the client, signed using the KDC's
signature key; or
b. a symmetric encryption key, signed using the KDC's signature
key and encrypted using the client's public key.
Any keying material required by the client to obtain the
encryption key for decrypting the KDC reply is returned in a
pre-authentication field accompanying the usual reply.
4. The client validates the KDC's signature, obtains the encryption
key, decrypts the reply, and then proceeds as usual.
Section 3.1 of this document enumerates the required algorithms and
necessary extension message types. Section 3.2 describes the
extension messages in greater detail.
3.1 Definitions, Requirements, and Constants
3.1.1 Required Algorithms
All PKINIT implementations MUST support the following algorithms:
o KDC AS reply key enctype: AES256-CTS-HMAC-SHA1-96 etype [RFC3961].
o Signature algorithm: sha-1WithRSAEncryption [RFC3279].
o KDC AS reply key delivery method: Diffie-Hellman key exchange
[RFC2631].
Tung & Zhu Expires August 22, 2005 [Page 4]
3.1.2 Defined Message and Encryption Types
PKINIT makes use of the following new pre-authentication types:
PA_PK_AS_REQ 16
PA_PK_AS_REP 17
PKINIT also makes use of the following new authorization data type:
AD_INITIAL_VERIFIED_CAS 9
PKINIT introduces the following new error codes:
KDC_ERR_CLIENT_NOT_TRUSTED 62
KDC_ERR_INVALID_SIG 64
KDC_ERR_DH_KEY_PARAMETERS_NOT_ACCEPTED 65
KDC_ERR_CANT_VERIFY_CERTIFICATE 70
KDC_ERR_INVALID_CERTIFICATE 71
KDC_ERR_REVOKED_CERTIFICATE 72
KDC_ERR_REVOCATION_STATUS_UNKNOWN 73
KDC_ERR_CLIENT_NAME_MISMATCH 75
KDC_ERR_INCONSISTENT_KEY_PURPOSE 76
PKINIT uses the following typed data types for errors:
TD_TRUSTED_CERTIFIERS 104
TD_INVLID_CERTIFICATES 105
TD_DH_PARAMETERS 109
PKINIT defines the following encryption types, for use in the AS-REQ
message to indicate acceptance of the corresponding algorithms that
can used by Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) [RFC3852] messages in
the reply:
dsaWithSHA1-CmsOID 9
md5WithRSAEncryption-CmsOID 10
sha1WithRSAEncryption-CmsOID 11
rc2CBC-EnvOID 12
rsaEncryption-EnvOID (PKCS1 v1.5) 13
rsaES-OAEP-EnvOID (PKCS1 v2.0) 14
des-ede3-cbc-EnvOID 15
The ASN.1 module for all structures defined in this document (plus
IMPORT statements for all imported structures) is given in
Appendix A.
All structures defined in or imported into this document MUST be
encoded using Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER) [X690] (unless
otherwise noted). All data structures carried in OCTET STRINGs must
Tung & Zhu Expires August 22, 2005 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft PKINIT February 2005
be encoded according to the rules specified in corresponding
specifications.
Interoperability note: Some implementations may not be able to decode
wrapped CMS objects encoded with BER but not DER; specifically, they
may not be able to decode infinite length encodings. To maximize
interoperability, implementers SHOULD encode CMS objects used in
PKINIT with DER.
3.1.3 Algorithm Identifiers
PKINIT does not define, but does make use of, the following algorithm
identifiers.
PKINIT uses the following algorithm identifiers for Diffie-Hellman
key agreement [RFC3279]:
dhpublicnumber (Diffie-Hellman modulo a prime p [RFC2631])
id-ecPublicKey (Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman [IEEE1363])
PKINIT uses the following signature algorithm identifiers [RFC3279]:
sha-1WithRSAEncryption (RSA with SHA1)
md5WithRSAEncryption (RSA with MD5)
id-dsa-with-sha1 (DSA with SHA1)
PKINIT uses the following encryption algorithm identifiers [RFC3447]
for encrypting the temporary key with a public key:
rsaEncryption (PKCS1 v1.5)
id-RSAES-OAEP (PKCS1 v2.0)
PKINIT uses the following algorithm identifiers [RFC3370][RFC3565]
for encrypting the KDC AS reply key with the temporary key:
des-ede3-cbc (three-key 3DES, CBC mode)
rc2-cbc (RC2, CBC mode)
id-aes256-CBC (AES-256, CBC mode)
3.2 PKINIT Pre-authentication Syntax and Use
This section defines the syntax and use of the various
pre-authentication fields employed by PKINIT.
3.2.1 Generation of Client Request
