Abstract
This document defines a base profile for TLS protocol versions 1.2
and 1.3, as well as DTLS protocol versions 1.2 and 1.3 for use with
the United States Commercial National Security Algorithm (CNSA)
Suite.
The profile applies to the capabilities, configuration, and operation
of all components of US National Security Systems that use TLS or
DTLS. It is also appropriate for all other US Government systems
that process high-value information.
The profile is made publicly available here for use by developers and
operators of these and any other system deployments.

Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
1. Introduction
This document specifies a profile of TLS version 1.2 [RFC5246] and
TLS version 1.3 [RFC8446], as well as DTLS version 1.2 [RFC6347] and
DTLS version 1.3 [ID.dtls13] for use by applications that support the
National Security Agency's (NSA) Commercial National Security
Algorithm (CNSA) Suite [CNSA]. The profile applies to the
capabilities, configuration, and operation of all components of US
National Security Systems [SP80059]. It is also appropriate for all
other US Government systems that process high-value information. It
is made publicly available for use by developers and operators of
these and any other system deployments.
This document does not define any new cipher suites; instead, it
defines a CNSA compliant profile of TLS and DTLS, and the cipher
suites defined in [RFC5288], [RFC5289], and [RFC8446]. This profile
uses only algorithms in the CNSA Suite.
The reader is assumed to have familiarity with the TLS 1.2 and 1.3 as
well as the DTLS 1.2 and 1.3 protocol specifications: [RFC5246],
[RFC6347], [RFC8446], and [ID.dtls13]. All MUST-level requirements
from the protocol documents apply throughout this profile; they are
generally not repeated. This profile contains changes that elevate
some SHOULD-level options to MUST-level; this profile also contains
changes that elevate some MAY-level options to SHOULD-level or MUST-
level. All options that are not mentioned in this profile remain at
their original requirement level.
2. The Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite
The National Security Agency (NSA) profiles commercial cryptographic
algorithms and protocols as part of its mission to support secure,
interoperable communications for US Government National Security
Systems. To this end, it publishes guidance both to assist with the
US Government transition to new algorithms, and to provide vendors -
and the Internet community in general - with information concerning
their proper use and configuration.
Recently, cryptographic transition plans have become overshadowed by
the prospect of the development of a cryptographically-relevant
quantum computer. NSA has established the CNSA Suite to provide
vendors and IT users near-term flexibility in meeting their
Information Assurance (IA) interoperability requirements. The
purpose behind this flexibility is to avoid having vendors and
customers make two major transitions in a relatively short timeframe,
as we anticipate a need to shift to quantum-resistant cryptography in
the near future.
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
NSA is authoring a set of RFCs, including this one, to provide
updated guidance concerning the use of certain commonly available
commercial algorithms in IETF protocols. These RFCs can be used in
conjunction with other RFCs and cryptographic guidance (e.g., NIST
Special Publications) to properly protect Internet traffic and data-
at-rest for US Government National Security Systems.
3. Terminology
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.
"ECDSA" and "ECDH" refer to the use of the Elliptic Curve Digital
Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) and Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman (ECDH),
respectively. ECDSA and ECDH are used with the NIST P-384 curve
(which is based on a 384-bit prime modulus) and the SHA-384 hash
function. Similarly, "RSA" and "DH" refer to Rivest-Shamir-Adleman
(RSA) and Finite Field Diffie-Hellman (DH), respectively. RSA and DH
are used with a 3072-bit or 4096-bit modulus. When RSA is used for
digital signature, it is used with the SHA-384 hash function.
Henceforth, this document refers to TLS versions 1.2 and 1.3 and DTLS
versions 1.2 and 1.3 collectively as (D)TLS.
4. CNSA Suite
[CNSA] approves the use of both finite field and elliptic curve
versions of the DH key agreement algorithm, as well as RSA-based key
establishment. [CNSA] also approves certain versions of the RSA and
elliptic curve digital signature algorithms. The approved encryption
techniques include the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) used with a
256-bit key in an Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data
(AEAD) mode.
In particular, CNSA includes the following:
Encryption:
AES [AES] (with key size 256 bits), operating in Galois/Counter
Mode (GCM) [GCM]
Digital Signature:
ECDSA [DSS] (using the NIST P-384 elliptic curve)
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
RSA [DSS] (with a modulus of 3072 bits or 4096 bits)
Key Establishment (includes key agreement and key transport):
ECDH [PWKE-A] (using the NIST P-384 elliptic curve)
DH [PWKE-A] (with a prime modulus of 3072 or 4096 bits)
RSA [PWKE-B] (with a modulus of 3072 or 4096 bits, but only in
(D)TLS 1.2)
[CNSA] also approves the use of SHA-384 [SHS] for the hash algorithm
for mask generation, signature generation, Pseudo Random Function
(PRF) in TLS 1.2 and HMAC-based key derivation function (HKDF) in TLS
1.3.
4.1. CNSA (D)TLS Key Establishment Algorithms
The following combination of algorithms and key sizes are used in
CNSA (D)TLS:
AES with 256-bit key, operating in GCM mode
ECDH [PWKE-A] using the Ephemeral Unified Model Scheme with
cofactor set to 1 (see Section 6.1.2.2 in [PWKE-A])
TLS PRF/HKDF with SHA-384 [SHS]
Or
AES with 256-bit key, operating in GCM mode
RSA key transport using 3072-bit or 4096-bit modulus
[PWKE-B][RFC8017]
TLS PRF/HKDF with SHA-384 [SHS]
Or
AES with 256-bit key, operating in GCM mode
DH using dhEphem with domain parameters specified below in
Section 5.3 (see Section 6.1.2.1 in [PWKE-A])
TLS PRF/HKDF with SHA-384 [SHS]
The specific CNSA compliant cipher suites are listed in Section 5.
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
4.2. CNSA TLS Authentication
For server and/or client authentication, CNSA (D)TLS MUST generate
and verify either ECDSA signatures or RSA signatures.
In all cases, the client MUST authenticate the server. The server
MAY also authenticate the client, as needed by the specific
application.
The public keys used to verify these signatures MUST be contained in
a certificate, see Section 5.4 for more information.
5. CNSA Compliance and Interoperability Requirements
CNSA (D)TLS MUST NOT use TLS versions prior to (D)TLS 1.2 in a CNSA
compliant system. CNSA (D)TLS servers and clients MUST implement and
use either (D)TLS version 1.2 [RFC5246][RFC6347] or (D)TLS version
1.3 [RFC8446][ID.dtls13].
5.1. Acceptable ECC Curves
The elliptic curves used in the CNSA Suite appear in the literature
under two different names [DSS] [SECG]. For the sake of clarity,
both names are listed below:
Curve NIST name SECG name
--------------------------------
P-384 nistp384 secp384r1
[RFC8422] defines a variety of elliptic curves. CNSA (D)TLS
connections MUST use secp384r1 (also called nistp384) and the
uncompressed form MUST be used, as required by [RFC8422] and
[RFC8446].
Key pairs MUST be generated following Section 5.6.1.2 of [PWKE-A].
5.2. Acceptable RSA Schemes, Parameters and Checks
[CNSA] specifies a minimum modulus size of 3072 bits; however, only
two modulus sizes (3072 bits and 4096 bits) are supported by this
profile.
For (D)TLS 1.2:
For certificate signature, RSASSA-PKCS1-v1.5 [RFC8017] MUST be
supported, and RSASSA-PSS [DSS] SHOULD be supported.
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
For signatures in TLS handshake messages RSASSA-PKCS1-v1.5
[RFC8017] MUST be supported, and RSASSA-PSS [DSS] SHOULD be
supported.
For key transport, RSAES-PKCS1-v1.5 [RFC8017] MUST be
supported.
For (D)TLS 1.3:
For certificate signature, RSASSA-PKCS1-v1.5 [RFC8017] MUST be
supported, and RSASSA-PSS [DSS] SHOULD be supported.
For signatures in TLS handshake messages RSASSA-PSS [DSS] MUST
be supported.
For key transport, TLS 1.3 does not support RSA key transport.
For all versions of (D)TLS:
RSA exponent e MUST satisfy 2^16<e<2^256 and be odd per [DSS].
If RSASSA-PSS is supported (using rsa_pss_rsae_sha384 for
example), then the implementation MUST assert rsaEncryption as
the public key algorithm, the hash algorithm (used for both
mask generation and signature generation) MUST be SHA-384, the
mask generation function 1 (MGF1) from [RFC8017] MUST be used,
and the salt length MUST be 48 octets.
5.3. Acceptable Finite Field Groups
[CNSA] specifies a minimum modulus size of 3072 bits; however, only
two modulus sizes (3072 bits and 4096 bits) are supported by this
profile.
Ephemeral key pairs MUST be generated following Section 5.6.1.1.1 of
[PWKE-A] using the approved safe prime groups specified in [RFC7919]
for DH ephemeral key agreement. The named groups are:
ffdhe3072 (ID=257)
ffdhe4096 (ID=258)
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
5.4. Certificates
Certificates used to establish a CNSA (D)TLS connection MUST be
signed with ECDSA or RSA and MUST be compliant with the "CNSA
Certificate and Certificate Revocation List (CRL) Profile" [RFC8603].
6. (D)TLS 1.2 Requirements
Although TLS 1.2 has technically been obsoleted by the IETF in favor
of TLS 1.3, many implementations and deployments of TLS 1.2 will
continue to exist. For the cases where TLS 1.2 continues to be used,
implementations MUST use [RFC5246] and SHOULD implement the updates
specified in [RFC8446] (outlined in Section 1.3).
The CNSA (D)TLS 1.2 client MUST offer at least one of these
ciphersuites:
TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 [RFC5289] [RFC8422]
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 [RFC5289] [RFC8422]
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 [RFC5288]
TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 [RFC5288] [RFC7919]
The CNSA cipher suites listed above MUST be the first (most
preferred) cipher suites in the ClientHello message.
A CNSA (D)TLS client that offers interoperability with servers that
are not CNSA compliant MAY offer additional cipher suites, but any
additional cipher suites MUST appear after the CNSA cipher suites in
the ClientHello message.
A CNSA (D)TLS server MUST accept one of the CNSA suites above if they
are offered in the ClientHello message before accepting a non-CNSA
compliant suite.
If interoperability is not desired with non-CNSA compliant clients or
servers, then the session MUST fail if no CNSA suites are offered or
accepted.
6.1. The extended_master_secret Extension
A CNSA (D)TLS client SHOULD include and a CNSA (D)TLS server SHOULD
accept the "extended_master_secret" extension as specified in
[RFC7627]. See Section 1 of [RFC7627] for security concerns when
this extension is not used.
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
6.2. The signature_algorithms Extension
A CNSA (D)TLS client MUST include and a CNSA (D)TLS server MUST also
accept the "signature_algorithms" extension. The CNSA (D)TLS client
MUST offer and the CNSA (D)TLS server MUST also accept at least one
of the following values in the "signature_algorithms" extensions as
specified in [RFC8446]:
ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384
rsa_pkcs1_sha384
And, if supported, the client SHOULD offer and/or the server SHOULD
also accept:
rsa_pss_pss_sha384
rsa_pss_rsae_sha384
Following the guidance in [RFC8603], CNSA (D)TLS servers MUST only
accept ECDSA or RSA for signatures on ServerKeyExchange messages and
for certification path validation.
Other client offerings MAY be included to indicate the acceptable
signature algorithms in cipher suites that are offered for
interoperability with servers not compliant with CNSA and to indicate
the signature algorithms that are acceptable for ServerKeyExchange
messages and for certification path validation in non-compliant CNSA
(D)TLS connections. These offerings MUST NOT be accepted by a CNSA
compliant (D)TLS server.
6.3. The signature_algorithms_cert Extension
A CNSA (D)TLS client MAY include the "signature_algorithms_cert"
extension. CNSA (D)TLS servers MUST process the
"signature_algorithms_cert" extension if it is offered per
Section 4.2.3 of [RFC8446].
Both CNSA (D)TLS clients and servers MUST use one of the following
values for certificate path validation:
ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384
rsa_pkcs1_sha384
And, if supported, SHOULD offer/accept:
rsa_pss_pss_sha384
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
rsa_pss_rsae_sha384
6.4. The CertificateRequest Message
When a CNSA (D)TLS server is configured to authenticate the client,
the server MUST include in its
CertificateRequest.supported_signature_algorithms [RFC5246] offer:
ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384
rsa_pkcs1_sha384
And, if supported as specified in [RFC8446], SHOULD offer/accept:
rsa_pss_pss_sha384
rsa_pss_rsae_sha384
6.5. The CertificateVerify Message
A CNSA (D)TLS client MUST use ECDSA or RSA when sending the
CertificateVerify message. CNSA (D)TLS Servers MUST only accept
ECDSA or RSA in the CertificateVerify message.
6.6. The Signature in the ServerKeyExchange Message
A CNSA (D)TLS server MUST sign the ServerKeyExchange message using
ECDSA or RSA.
6.7. Certificate Status
Certificate Authorities providing certificates to a CNSA (D)TLS
server or client MUST provide certificate revocation status
information via a Certificate Revocation List (CRL) distribution
point or using the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP). A CNSA
client SHOULD request it according to [RFC8446] Section 4.4.2.1. If
OCSP is supported, the (D)TLS server SHOULD provide OCSP responses in
the "CertificateStatus" message.
7. (D)TLS 1.3 Requirements
The CNSA (D)TLS client MUST offer the following CipherSuite in the
ClientHello:
TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
The CNSA (D)TLS client MUST include at least one of the following
values in "supported_groups":
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
ECDHE: secp384r1
DHE: ffdhe3072
DHE: ffdhe4096
The CNSA cipher suite MUST be the first (most preferred) cipher
suites in the ClientHello message and in the extensions.
A CNSA (D)TLS client that offers interoperability with servers that
are not CNSA compliant MAY offer additional cipher suites, but any
additional cipher suites MUST appear after the CNSA compliant cipher
suites in the ClientHello message.
A CNSA (D)TLS server MUST accept one of the CNSA algorithms listed
above if they are offered in the ClientHello message.
If interoperability is not desired with non-CNSA compliant clients or
servers, then the session MUST fail if no CNSA suites are offered or
accepted.
7.1. The "signature_algorithms" Extension
A CNSA (D)TLS client MUST include the "signature_algorithms"
extension. The CNSA (D)TLS client MUST offer at least one of the
following values in the "signature_algorithms" extension:
ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384
rsa_pss_pss_sha384
rsa_pss_rsae_sha384
Clients that allow negotiating TLS 1.2 MAY offer rsa_pkcs1_sha384 for
use with TLS 1.2. Other offerings MAY be included to indicate the
acceptable signature algorithms in cipher suites that are offered for
interoperability with servers not compliant with CNSA in non-
compliant CNSA (D)TLS connections. These offerings MUST NOT be
accepted by a CNSA compliant (D)TLS server.
7.2. The "signature_algorithms_cert" Extension
A CNSA (D)TLS client SHOULD include the "signature_algorithms_cert"
extension. And if offered, the CNSA (D)TLS client MUST offer at
least one of the following values in the "signature_algorithms_cert"
extension:

Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
rsa_pkcs1_sha384
And, if supported, SHOULD offer:
rsa_pss_pss_sha384
rsa_pss_rsae_sha384
Following the guidance in [RFC8603], CNSA (D)TLS servers MUST only
accept ECDSA or RSA for certificate path validation.
Other offerings MAY be included to indicate the signature algorithms
that are acceptable for certification path validation in non-
compliant CNSA (D)TLS connections. These offerings MUST NOT be
accepted by a CNSA compliant (D)TLS server.
7.3. The "early_data" Extension
A CNSA (D)TLS client or server MUST NOT include the "early_data"
extension. See Section 2.3 [RFC8446] for security concerns.
7.4. Resumption
A CNSA (D)TLS server MAY send a CNSA (D)TLS client a NewSessionTicket
message to enable resumption. A CNSA (D)TLS client MUST request
"psk_dhe_ke" via the psk_key_exchange_modes ClientHello extension to
resume a session. A CNSA (D)TLS client MUST offer ECDHE with SHA-384
and/or DHE with SHA-384 in the "supported_groups" and/or "key_share"
extensions.
7.5. Certificate Status
Certificate Authorities providing certificates to a CNSA (D)TLS
server or client MUST provide certificate revocation status
information via a Certificate Revocation List (CRL) distribution
point or using the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP). A CNSA
client SHOULD request it according to [RFC8446] Section 4.4.2.1. If
OCSP is supported, the (D)TLS server SHOULD provide OCSP responses in
the "CertificateEntry".
8. Security Considerations
Most of the security considerations for this document are described
in [RFC5246], [RFC8446], [RFC6347], and [ID.dtls13]. In addition,
the security consideration for ECC related to TLS are described in
[RFC8422], [RFC5288] and [RFC5289]. Readers should consult those
documents.
Cooley Expires July 24, 2021 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft CNSA Suite TLS Profile January 2021
In order to meet the goal of a consistent security level for the
entire cipher suite, CNSA (D)TLS implementations MUST only use the
Elliptic Curves, RSA schemes and Finite Fields defined in
Section 5.1, Section 5.2, and Section 5.3 respectively. If this is
not the case, then security may be weaker than is required.
As noted in TLS version 1.3 [RFC8446], TLS does not provide inherent
replay protections for early data. For this reason, this profile
forbids the use of early data.
9. IANA Considerations
This document has no IANA actions.
