1. Introduction
This specification supplements [RFC5280], which profiles public-key
certificates and certificate revocation lists (CRLs) for use in the
Internet, and it supplements [RFC5755] which profiles attribute
certificates for use in the Internet.
This document obsoletes RFC 3709 and RFC 6170. Appendix C provides a
summary of the changes since the publication of RFC 3709.
The basic function of a certificate is to bind a public key to the
identity of an entity (the subject). From a strictly technical
viewpoint, this goal could be achieved by signing the identity of the
subject together with its public key. However, the art of Public Key
Infrastructure (PKI) has developed certificates far beyond this
functionality in order to meet the needs of modern global networks
and heterogeneous information technology structures.
Certificate users must be able to determine certificate policies,
appropriate key usage, assurance level, and name form constraints.
Before a relying party can make an informed decision whether a
particular certificate is trustworthy and relevant for its intended
usage, a certificate may be examined from several different
perspectives.
Systematic processing is necessary to determine whether a particular
certificate meets the predefined prerequisites for an intended usage.
Much of the information contained in certificates is appropriate and
effective for machine processing; however, this information is not
suitable for a corresponding human trust and recognition process.
Humans prefer to structure information into categories and symbols.
Most humans associate complex structures of reality with easily
recognizable logotypes and marks. Humans tend to trust things that
they recognize from previous experiences. Humans may examine
information to confirm their initial reaction. Very few consumers
actually read all terms and conditions they agree to in accepting a
service, rather they commonly act on trust derived from previous
experience and recognition.
A big part of this process is branding. Service providers and
product vendors invest a lot of money and resources into creating a
strong relation between positive user experiences and easily
recognizable trademarks, servicemarks, and logotypes.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
Branding is also pervasive in identification instruments, including
identification cards, passports, driver's licenses, credit cards,
gasoline cards, and loyalty cards. Identification instruments are
intended to identify the holder as a particular person or as a member
of the community. The community may represent the subscribers of a
service or any other group. Identification instruments, in physical
form, commonly use logotypes and symbols, solely to enhance human
recognition and trust in the identification instrument itself. They
may also include a registered trademark to allow legal recourse for
unauthorized duplication.
Since certificates play an equivalent role in electronic exchanges,
we examine the inclusion of logotypes in certificates. We consider
certificate-based identification and certificate selection.
1.1. Certificate-based Identification
The need for human recognition depends on the manner in which
certificates are used and whether certificates need to be visible to
human users. If certificates are to be used in open environments and
in applications that bring the user in conscious contact with the
result of a certificate-based identification process, then human
recognition is highly relevant, and may be a necessity.
Examples of such applications include:
* Web server identification where a user identifies the owner of the
web site.
* Peer e-mail exchange in B2B, B2C, and private communications.
* Exchange of medical records, and system for medical prescriptions.
* Unstructured e-business applications (i.e., non-EDI applications).
* Wireless client authenticating to a service provider.
Most applications provide the human user with an opportunity to view
the results of a successful certificate-based identification process.
When the user takes the steps necessary to view these results, the
user is presented with a view of a certificate. This solution has
two major problems. First, the function to view a certificate is
often rather hard to find for a non-technical user. Second, the
presentation of the certificate is too technical and is not user
friendly. It contains no graphic symbols or logotypes to enhance
human recognition.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
Many investigations have shown that users of today's applications do
not take the steps necessary to view certificates. This could be due
to poor user interfaces. Further, many applications are structured
to hide certificates from users. The application designers do not
want to expose certificates to users at all.
1.2. Selection of Certificates
One situation where software applications must expose human users to
certificates is when the user must select a single certificate from a
portfolio of certificates. In some cases, the software application
can use information within the certificates to filter the list for
suitability; however, the user must be queried if more than one
certificate is suitable. The human user must select one of them.
This situation is comparable to a person selecting a suitable plastic
card from his wallet. In this situation, substantial assistance is
provided by card color, location, and branding.
In order to provide similar support for certificate selection, the
users need tools to easily recognize and distinguish certificates.
Introduction of logotypes into certificates provides the necessary
graphic.
1.3. Combination of Verification Techniques
The use of logotypes will, in many cases, affect the users decision
to trust and use a certificate. It is therefore important that there
be a distinct and clear architectural and functional distinction
between the processes and objectives of the automated certificate
verification and human recognition.
Since logotypes are only aimed for human interpretation and contain
data that is inappropriate for computer based verification schemes,
the logotype extension MUST NOT be an active component in automated
certification path validation.
Automated certification path verification determines whether the end-
entity certificate can be verified according to defined policy. The
algorithm for this verification is specified in [RFC5280].
The automated processing provides assurance that the certificate is
valid. It does not indicate whether the subject is entitled to any
particular information, or whether the subject ought to be trusted to
perform a particular service. These are access control decisions.
Automatic processing will make some access control decisions, but
others, depending on the application context, involve the human user.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
In some situations, where automated procedures have failed to
establish the suitability of the certificate to the task, the human
user is the final arbitrator of the post certificate verification
access control decisions. In the end, the human will decide whether
or not to accept an executable email attachment, to release personal
information, or follow the instructions displayed by a web browser.
This decision will often be based on recognition and previous
experience.
The distinction between systematic processing and human processing is
rather straightforward. They can be complementary. While the
systematic process is focused on certification path construction and
verification, the human acceptance process is focused on recognition
and related previous experience.
There are some situations where systematic processing and human
processing interfere with each other. These issues are discussed in
the Section 9.
1.4. 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.
2. Different Types of Logotypes in Certificates
This specification defines the inclusion of three standard logotype
types:
* Community logotype
* Issuer organization logotype
* Subject organization logotype
The community logotype is the general mark for a community. It
identifies a service concept for entity identification and
certificate issuance. Many issuers may use a community logotype to
co-brand with a global community in order to gain global recognition
of its local service provision. This type of community branding is
very common in the credit card business, where local independent card
issuers include a globally recognized brand (such as VISA and
MasterCard).
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
Issuer organization logotype is a logotype representing the
organization identified as part of the issuer name in the
certificate.
Subject organization logotype is a logotype representing the
organization identified in the subject name in the certificate.
In addition to the standard logotype types, this specification
accommodates inclusion of other logotype types where each class of
logotype is defined by an object identifier. The object identifier
can be either locally defined or an identifier defined in Section 4.4
of this document.
3. Logotype Data
This specification defines two types of logotype data: image data and
audio data. Implementations MUST support image data; however,
support for audio data is OPTIONAL.
There is no need to significantly increase the size of the
certificate by including image and audio data of logotypes when a URI
identifying the location to the logotype data and a one-way hash of
the referenced data is included in the certificate. Embedding the
logotype in the certificate (as defined in Section 4.3) can
significantly increase the size of the certificate.
Several image objects, representing the same visual content in
different formats, sizes, and color palates, may represent each
logotype image. At least one of the image objects representing a
logotype SHOULD contain an image within the size range of 60 pixels
wide by 45 pixels high, and 200 pixels wide by 150 pixels high.
Several instances of audio data may further represent the same audio
sequence in different formats, resolutions, and languages. At least
one of the audio objects representing a logotype SHOULD have a play
time between 1 and 30 seconds.
If a logotype of a certain type (as defined in Section 1.1) is
represented by more than one image object, then the image objects
MUST contain variants of roughly the same visual content. Likewise,
if a logotype of a certain type is represented by more than one audio
object, then the audio objects MUST contain variants of the same
audio information. A spoken message in different languages is
considered a variation of the same audio information. Compliant
applications MUST NOT display more than one of the image objects and
MUST NOT play more than one of the audio object for any logotype type
at the same time.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
A client MAY simultaneously display multiple logotypes of different
logotype types. For example, it may display one subject organization
logotype while also displaying a community logotype, but it MUST NOT
display multiple image variants of the same community logotype.
Each logotype present in a certificate MUST be represented by at
least one image data object.
Client applications SHOULD enhance processing and off-line
functionality by caching logotype data.
4. Logotype Extension
This section specifies the syntax and semantics of the logotype
certificate extension.
4.1. Extension Format
The logotype extension MAY be included in public key certificates
[RFC5280] or attribute certificates [RFC5755]. The logotype
extension MUST be identified by the following object identifier:
id-pe-logotype OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::=
{ iso(1) identified-organization(3) dod(6) internet(1)
security(5) mechanisms(5) pkix(7) id-pe(1) 12 }
This extension MUST NOT be marked critical.
Logotype data may be referenced through either direct or indirect
addressing. Client applications MUST support both direct and
indirect addressing. Certificate issuing applications MUST support
direct addressing, and certificate issuing applications SHOULD
support indirect addressing.
The direct addressing includes information about each logotype in the
certificate, and URIs point to the image and audio data object.
Direct addressing supports cases where just one or a few alternative
images and audio objects are referenced.
The indirect addressing includes one reference to an external hashed
data structure that contains information on the type, content, and
location of each image and audio object. Indirect addressing
supports cases where each logotype is represented by many alternative
audio or image objects.
Both direct and indirect addressing accommodate alternative URIs to
obtain exactly the same item. This opportunity for replication is
intended to improve availability. Therefore, if a client is unable
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
to fetch the item from one URI, the client SHOULD try another URI in
the sequence. All direct addressing URIs SHOULD use either the HTTP
scheme (http://...) or the HTTPS scheme (https://...) or the DATA
scheme (data://...) [RFC2396]; however, the "data" URI scheme MUST
NOT be used with the indirect addressing. Clients MUST support
retrieval of referenced LogoTypeData with the HTTP/2 [RFC7540] and
the HTTPS/2 with TLS [RFC8740]. Client applications SHOULD also
support the "data" URI scheme [RFC2397] for direct addressing with
embedded logotype data within the extension.
The logotype extension MUST have the following syntax:
LogotypeExtn ::= SEQUENCE {
communityLogos [0] EXPLICIT SEQUENCE OF LogotypeInfo OPTIONAL,
issuerLogo [1] EXPLICIT LogotypeInfo OPTIONAL,
subjectLogo [2] EXPLICIT LogotypeInfo OPTIONAL,
otherLogos [3] EXPLICIT SEQUENCE OF OtherLogotypeInfo
OPTIONAL }
LogotypeInfo ::= CHOICE {
direct [0] LogotypeData,
indirect [1] LogotypeReference }
LogotypeData ::= SEQUENCE {
image SEQUENCE OF LogotypeImage OPTIONAL,
audio [1] SEQUENCE OF LogotypeAudio OPTIONAL }
LogotypeImage ::= SEQUENCE {
imageDetails LogotypeDetails,
imageInfo LogotypeImageInfo OPTIONAL }
LogotypeAudio ::= SEQUENCE {
audioDetails LogotypeDetails,
audioInfo LogotypeAudioInfo OPTIONAL }
LogotypeDetails ::= SEQUENCE {
mediaType IA5String, -- MIME media type name and optional
-- parameters
logotypeHash SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF HashAlgAndValue,
logotypeURI SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF IA5String }
LogotypeImageInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
type [0] LogotypeImageType DEFAULT color,
fileSize INTEGER, -- In octets
xSize INTEGER, -- Horizontal size in pixels
ySize INTEGER, -- Vertical size in pixels
resolution LogotypeImageResolution OPTIONAL,
language [4] IA5String OPTIONAL } -- RFC 5646 Language Tag
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
LogotypeImageType ::= INTEGER { grayScale(0), color(1) }
LogotypeImageResolution ::= CHOICE {
numBits [1] INTEGER, -- Resolution in bits
tableSize [2] INTEGER } -- Number of colors or grey tones
LogotypeAudioInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
fileSize INTEGER, -- In octets
playTime INTEGER, -- In milliseconds
channels INTEGER, -- 1=mono, 2=stereo, 4=quad
sampleRate [3] INTEGER OPTIONAL, -- Samples per second
language [4] IA5String OPTIONAL } -- RFC 5646 Language Tag
OtherLogotypeInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
logotypeType OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
info LogotypeInfo }
LogotypeReference ::= SEQUENCE {
refStructHash SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF HashAlgAndValue,
refStructURI SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF IA5String }
-- Places to get the same LogotypeData
-- image or audio object
HashAlgAndValue ::= SEQUENCE {
hashAlg AlgorithmIdentifier,
hashValue OCTET STRING }
When using indirect addressing, the URI (refStructURI) pointing to
the external data structure MUST point to a binary file containing
the DER-encoded data with the syntax LogotypeData.
At least one of the optional elements in the LogotypeExtn structure
MUST be present. Avoid the use of otherLogos whenever possible.
When using direct addressing, at least one of the optional elements
in the LogotypeData structure MUST be present.
The LogotypeReference and LogotypeDetails structures explicitly
identify one or more one-way hash functions employed to authenticate
referenced image or audio objects. CAs MUST include a hash value for
each referenced object, calculated on the whole object. CAs SHOULD
include a hash value that computed with the one-way hash function
associated with the certificate signature, and CAs MAY include other
hash values. Clients MUST compute a one-way hash value using one of
the identified functions, and clients MUST discard the logotype data
if the computed hash value does not match the hash value in the
certificate extension.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
A MIME type is used to specify the format of the image or audio
object containing the logotype data. The mediaType field MUST
contain a string that is constructed according to the ABNF [RFC5234]
provided in Section 4.2 of [RFC4288]. MIME types MAY include
parameters.
Image format requirements are specified in Section 7, and audio
format requirements are specified in Section 8.
When language is specified, the language tag MUST use the [RFC5646]
syntax.
Logotype types defined in this specification are:
Community Logotype: If communityLogos is present, the logotypes
MUST represent one or more communities with which the certificate
issuer is affiliated. The communityLogos MAY be present in an end
entity certificate, a CA certificate, or an attribute certificate.
The communityLogos contains a sequence of Community Logotypes,
each representing a different community. If more than one
Community logotype is present, they MUST be placed in order of
preferred appearance. Some clients MAY choose to display a subset
of the present community logos; therefore the placement within the
sequence aids the client selection. The most preferred logotype
MUST be first in the sequence, and the least preferred logotype
MUST be last in the sequence.
Issuer Organization Logotype: If issuerLogo is present, the
logotype MUST represent the issuer's organization. The logotype
MUST be consistent with, and require the presence of, an
organization name stored in the organization attribute in the
issuer field (for either a public key certificate or attribute
certificate). The issuerLogo MAY be present in an end entity
certificate, a CA certificate, or an attribute certificate.
Subject Organization Logotype: If subjectLogo is present, the
logotype MUST represent the subject's organization. The logotype
MUST be consistent with, and require the presence of, an
organization name stored in the organization attribute in the
subject field (for either a public key certificate or attribute
certificate). The subjectLogo MAY be present in an end entity
certificate, a CA certificate, or an attribute certificate.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
The relationship between the subject organization and the subject
organization logotype, and the relationship between the issuer and
either the issuer organization logotype or the community logotype,
are relationships asserted by the issuer. The policies and practices
employed by the issuer to check subject organization logotypes or
claims its issuer and community logotypes is outside the scope of
this document.
4.2. Conventions for LogotypeImageInfo
When the optional LogotypeImageInfo is included with a logotype
image, the parameters MUST be used with the following semantics and
restrictions.
The xSize and ySize fields represent the recommended display size for
the logotype image. When a value of 0 (zero) is present, no
recommended display size is specified. When non-zero values are
present and these values differ from corresponding size values in the
referenced image object, then the referenced image SHOULD be scaled
to fit within the size parameters of LogotypeImageInfo, while
preserving the x and y ratio.
The resolution field is redundant for all logotype image formats
listed in Section 7. The optional resolution field SHOULD be omitted
when the image format already contains this information.
4.3. Embedded Images
If the logotype image is provided through direct addressing, then the
image MAY be stored within the logotype certificate extension using
the "data" scheme [RFC2397]. The syntax of the "data" URI scheme
defined is included here for convenience:
dataurl := "data:" [ mediatype ] [ ";base64" ] "," data
mediatype := [ type "/" subtype ] *( ";" parameter )
data := *urlchar
parameter := attribute "=" value
When including the image data in the logotype extension using the
"data" URI scheme, the following conventions apply:
* The value of mediaType in LogotypeDetails MUST be identical to the
media type value in the "data" URL.
* The hash of the image MUST be included in logotypeHash and MUST be
calculated over the same data as it would have been, had the image
been referenced through a link to an external resource.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
NOTE: As the "data" URI scheme is processed as a data source rather
than as a URL, the image data is typically not limited by any URL
length limit settings that otherwise apply to URLs in general.
NOTE: Implementations need to be cautious about the size of images
included in a certificate in order to ensure that the size of the
certificate does not prevent the certificate from being used as
intended.
4.4. Other Logotypes
Logotypes identified by otherLogos (as defined in Section 4.1) can be
used to enhance the display of logotypes and marks that represent
partners, products, services, or any other characteristic associated
with the certificate or its intended application environment when the
standard logotype types are insufficient.
The conditions and contexts of the intended use of these logotypes
are defined at the discretion of the local client application.
Three other logotype types are defined in the follow subsections.
4.4.1. Loyalty Logotype
When a loyalty logotype appears in the otherLogos, it MUST be
identified by the id-logo-loyalty object identifier.
id-logo OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-pkix 20 }
id-logo-loyalty OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-logo 1 }
A loyalty logotype, if present, MUST contain a logotype associated
with a loyalty program related to the certificate or its use. The
relation between the certificate and the identified loyalty program
is beyond the scope of this document. The logotype extension MAY
contain more than one Loyalty logotype.
4.4.2. Certificate Background Logotype
When a certificate background logotype appears in the otherLogos, it
MUST be identified by the id-logo-background object identifier.
id-logo-background OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-logo 2 }
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
The certificate background logotype, if present, MUST contain a
graphical image intended as a background image for the certificate,
and/or a general audio sequence for the certificate. The background
image MUST allow black text to be clearly read when placed on top of
the background image. The logotype extension MUST NOT contain more
than one certificate background logotype.
4.4.3. Certificate Image Logotype
When a certificate image logotype appears in the otherLogos, it MUST
be identified by the id-logo-background object identifier.
id-logo-certImage OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-logo 3 }
The certificate image logotype, if present, aids human interpretation
of a certificate by providing meaningful visual information to the
user interface (UI). Typical situations when a human needs to
examine the visual representation of a certificate are:
* A person establishes a secured channel with an authenticated
service. The person needs to determine the identity of the
service based on the authenticated credentials.
* A person validates the signature on critical information, such as
signed executable code, and needs to determine the identity of the
signer based on the signer's certificate.
* A person is required to select an appropriate certificate to be
used when authenticating to a service or Identity Management
infrastructure. The person needs to see the available
certificates in order to distinguish between them in the selection
process.
The display of certificate information to humans is challenging due
to lack of well-defined semantics for critical identity attributes.
Unless the application has out-of-band knowledge about a particular
certificate, the application will not know the exact nature of the
data stored in common identification attributes such as serialNumber,
organizationName, country, etc. Consequently, the application can
display the actual data, but faces the problem of labeling that data
in the UI and informing the human about the exact nature (semantics)
of that data. It is also challenging for the application to
determine which identification attributes are important to display
and how to organize them in a logical order.
When present, the certificate image MUST be a complete visual
representation of the certificate. This means that the display of
this certificate image represents all information about the
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 14]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
certificate that the issuer subjectively defines as relevant to show
to a typical human user within the typical intended use of the
certificate, giving adequate information about at least the following
three aspects of the certificate:
* Certificate Context
* Certificate Issuer
* Certificate Subject
Certificate Context information is visual marks and/or textual
information that helps the typical user to understand the typical
usage and/or purpose of the certificate.
It is up to the issuer to decide what information -- in the form of
text, graphical symbols, and elements -- represents a complete visual
representation of the certificate. However, the visual
representation of Certificate Subject and Certificate Issuer
information from the certificate MUST have the same meaning as the
textual representation of that information in the certificate itself.
Applications providing a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to the
certificate user MAY present a certificate image according to this
standard in any given application interface, as the only visual
representation of a certificate.
5. Type of Certificates
Logotypes MAY be included in public key certificates and attribute
certificates at the discretion of the certificate issuer; however,
logotypes MUST NOT be part of certification path validation or any
type of automated processing. The sole purpose of logotypes is to
enhance the display of a particular certificate, regardless of its
position in a certification path.
6. Use in Clients
All PKI implementations require relying party software to have some
mechanism to determine whether a trusted CA issues a particular
certificate. This is an issue for certification path validation,
including consistent policy and name checking.
After a certification path is successfully validated, the replying
party trusts the information that the CA includes in the certificate,
including any certificate extensions. The client software can choose
to make use of such information, or the client software can ignore
it. If the client is unable to support a provided logotype, the
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 15]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
client MUST NOT report an error, rather the client MUST behave as
though no logotype extension was included in the certificate.
Current standards do not provide any mechanism for cross-certifying
CAs to constrain subordinate CAs from including private extensions
(see Section 9).
Consequently, if relying party software accepts a CA, then it should
be prepared to (unquestioningly) display the associated logotypes to
its human user, given that it is configured to do so. Information
about the logotypes is provided so that the replying party software
can select the one that will best meet the needs of the human user.
This choice depends on the abilities of the human user, as well as
the capabilities of the platform on which the replaying party
software is running. If none of the provided logotypes meets the
needs of the human user or matches the capabilities of the platform,
then the logotypes can be ignored.
A client MAY, subject to local policy, choose to display none, one,
or any number of the logotypes in the logotype extension. In many
cases, a client will be used in an environment with a good network
connection and also used in an environment with little or no network
connectivity. For example, a laptop computer can be docked with a
high-speed LAN connection, or it can be disconnected from the network
altogether. In recognition of this situation, the client MUST
include the ability to disable the fetching of logotypes. However,
locally cached logotypes can still be displayed when the user
disables the fetching of additional logotypes.
A client MAY, subject to local policy, choose any combination of
audio and image presentation for each logotype. That is, the client
MAY display an image with or without playing a sound, and it MAY play
a sound with or without displaying an image. A client MUST NOT play
more than one logotype audio sequence at the same time.
The logotype is to be displayed in conjunction with other identity
information contained in the certificate. The logotype is not a
replacement for this identity information.
Care is needed when designing replying party software to ensure that
an appropriate context of logotype information is provided. This is
especially difficult with audio logotypes. It is important that the
human user be able to recognize the context of the logotype, even if
other audio streams are being played.
If the relying party software is unable to successfully validate a
particular certificate, then it MUST NOT display any logotype data
associated with that certificate.

Animated images SHOULD NOT be used.
The following table lists many commons image formats and their
corresponding MIME type. The table also indicates which of the image
formats must be supported by implementations. The filename
extensions commonly used for each of these formats is also provided.
Implementations MAY support other image formats.

+--------+--------------------+---------+------------+------------+
Table 1: Image Formats
NOTE: The image/svg+xml-compressed media type is widely implemented,
but it has not yet been registered with IANA.
When a Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) image is used, whether the
image is compressed or not, the SVG Tiny profile [SVGT] MUST be
followed, with these additional restrictions:
* The SVG image MUST NOT contain any Internationalized Resource
Identifier (IRI) references to information stored outside of the
SVG image of type B, C, or D, according to Section 14.1.4 of
[SVGT].
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 17]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
* The SVG image MUST NOT contain any 'script' element, according to
Section 15.2 of [SVGT].
* The XML structure in the SVG file MUST use linefeed (0x0A) as the
end-of-line (EOL) character when calculating a hash over the SVG
image.
When a GZIP-compressed SVG image is fetched with HTTP, the client
will receive response that includes these headers:
Content-Type: image/svg+xml
Content-Encoding: gzip
In this case, the octet stream of type image/svg+xml is compressed
with GZIP [RFC1952] as specified in [SVGR].
When a uncompressed SVG image is fetched with HTTP, the client will
receive response with the same Content-Type header, but no Content-
Encoding header.
Whether the SVG image is GZIP-compressed or uncompressed, the hash
value for the SVG image is calculated over the uncompressed SVG
content with canonicalized EOL characters as specified above.
When a SVG image is embedded in the certificate extension using the
"data" URL scheme, the SVG image data MUST be provided in GZIP-
compressed form, and the XML structure, prior to compression, SHOULD
use linefeed (0x0A) as the end-of-line (EOL) character.
When a bitmapped image is used, the PNG [ISO15948] format SHOULD be
used.
8. Audio Formats
Implementations that support audio MUST support the MP3 audio format
[MP3] with a MIME type of "audio/mpeg" [RFC3003]. Implementations
MAY support other audio formats.
9. Security Considerations
Implementations that simultaneously display multiple logotype types
(subject organization, issuer, community, or other), MUST ensure that
there is no ambiguity as to the binding between the image and the
type of logotype that the image represents. "Logotype type" is
defined in Section 1.1, and it refers to the type of entity or
affiliation represented by the logotype, not the of binary format if
the image or audio.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 18]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
Logotypes are very difficult to securely and accurately define.
Names are also difficult in this regard, but logotypes are even
worse. It is quite difficult to specify what is, and what is not, a
legitimate logotype of an organization. There is an entire legal
structure around this issue, and it will not be repeated here.
However, issuers should be aware of the implications of including
images associated with a trademark or servicemark before doing so.
As logotypes can be difficult (and sometimes expensive) to verify,
the possibility of errors related to assigning wrong logotypes to
organizations is increased.
This is not a new issue for electronic identification instruments.
It is already dealt with in a number of similar situations in the
physical world, including physical employee identification cards. In
addition, there are situations where identification of logotypes is
rather simple and straightforward, such as logotypes for well-known
industries and institutes. These issues should not stop those
service providers who want to issue logotypes from doing so, where
relevant.
It is impossible to prevent fraudulent creation of certificates by
dishonest or badly performing issuers, containing names and logotypes
that the issuer has no claim to or has failed to check correctly.
Such certificates could be created in an attempt to socially engineer
a user into accepting a certificate. The premise used for the
logotype work is thus that logotype graphics in a certificate are
trusted only if the certificate is successfully validated within a
valid path. It is thus imperative that the representation of any
certificate that fails to validate is not enhanced in any way by
using the logotype data.
This underlines the necessity for CAs to provide reliable services,
and the relying party's responsibility and need to carefully select
which CAs are trusted to provide public key certificates.
This also underlines the general necessity for relying parties to use
up-to-date software libraries to render or dereference data from
external sources, including logotype data in certificates, to
minimize risks related to processing potentially malicious data
before it has been adequately verified and validated.
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 19]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
Referenced image objects are hashed in order to bind the image to the
signature of the certificate. Some image types, such as SVG, allow
part of the image to be collected from an external source by
incorporating a reference to an external file that contains the
image. If this feature were used within a logotype image, the hash
of the image would only cover the URI reference to the external image
file, but not the referenced image data. Clients SHOULD verify that
SVG images meet all requirements listed in Section 7 and reject
images that contain references to external data.
Logotype data is fetched from a server when it is needed. By
watching activity on the network, an observer can determine which
clients are making use of certificates that contain particular
logotype data. This observation can potentially introduce privacy
issues. Since clients are expected to locally cache logotype data,
network traffic to the server containing the logotype data will not
be generated every time the certificate is used. In cases where
logotype data is not cashed, monitoring would reveal usage frequency.
In cases where logotype data is cached, monitoring would reveal when
a certain logotype image or audio sequence is used for the first
time.
CAs issuing certificates with embedded logotype images should be
cautious when accepting graphics from the certificate requestor for
inclusion in the certificate if the hash algorithm used to sign the
certificate is vulnerable to collision attacks. In such a case, the
accepted image may contain data that could help an attacker to obtain
colliding certificates with identical certificate signatures.
Certificates, and hence their logotype images, are commonly public
objects and as such usually will not contain privacy-sensitive
information. However, when a logotype image that is referenced from
a certificate contains privacy-sensitive information, appropriate
security controls should be in place to protect the privacy of that
information. Details of such controls are outside the scope of this
document.
Certification paths may also impose name constraints that are
systematically checked during certification path processing, which,
in theory, may be circumvented by logotypes.
Certificate path processing as defined in [RFC5280] does not
constrain the inclusion of logotype data in certificates. A parent
CA can constrain certification path validation such that subordinate
CAs cannot issue valid certificates to end-entities outside a limited
name space or outside specific certificate polices. A malicious CA
can comply with these name and policy requirements and still include
inappropriate logotypes in the certificates that it issues. These
Santesson, et al. Expires 29 July 2022 [Page 20]
Internet-Draft Logotypes in X.509 Certificates January 2022
certificates will pass the certification path validation algorithm,
which means the client will trust the logotypes in the certificates.
Since there is no technical mechanism to prevent or control
subordinate CAs from including the logotype extension or its
contents, where appropriate, a parent CA could employ a legal
agreement to impose a suitable restriction on the subordinate CA.
This situation is not unique to the logotype extension.
The controls available to a parent CA to protect itself from rogue
subordinate CAs are non-technical. They include:
* Contractual agreements of suitable behavior, including terms of
liability in case of material breach.
* Control mechanisms and procedures to monitor and follow-up
behavior of subordinate CAs.
* Use of certificate policies to declare an assurance level of
logotype data, as well as to guide applications on how to treat
and display logotypes.
* Use of revocation functions to revoke any misbehaving CA.
There is not a simple, straightforward, and absolute technical
solution. Rather, involved parties must settle some aspects of PKI
outside the scope of technical controls. As such, issuers need to
clearly identify and communicate the associated risks.
10. IANA Considerations
For the new ASN.1 Module in Appendix A.2, IANA is requested to assign
an object identifier (OID) for the module identifier. The OID for
the module should be allocated in the "SMI Security for PKIX Module
Identifier" registry (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.0).

Appendix A. ASN.1 Modules
A.1. ASN.1 Modules with 1988 Syntax
This appendix contains two ASN.1 modules, both using the old syntax
[OLD-ASN1].
The first ASN.1 module provides the syntax for the Logotype
certificate extension. Only comments have changed in the module from
RFC 3709, and the IMPORTS now come from [RFC5280].
The second ASN.1 module provides the Certificate Image object
identifier. The module is unchanged from RFC 6170.

Some developers like to use the latest version of ASN.1 standards.
This appendix provides an ASN.1 module to assist in that goal. It
uses the ASN.1 syntax defined in [NEW-ASN1], and it follows the
conventions established in [RFC5912] and [RFC6268].
This ASN.1 module incorporates the module from RFC 3709 and the

B.1. Example from RFC 3709
The following example displays a logotype extension containing one
Issuer logotype using direct addressing. The issuer logotype image
is of the type image/gif. The logotype image is referenced through
one URI and the image is hashed with SHA-1. This example is
unchanged from RFC 3709, except that shallow indenting is used to
keep the example within traditional margins. The use of SHA-1 was
reasonable at the time that RFC 3709 was published, but many better
choices are available today.
The values on the left are the ASN.1 tag (in hexadecimal) and the
length (in decimal).

B.3. Embedded Image Example
The following example displays a logotype extension containing one
Subject logotype using direct addressing. The subject logotype image
uses image/svg+xml-compressed. The logotype image is embedded in the
certificate extension with a "data:" URI and the image is hashed by
SHA-256. This technique produces a large certificate extension, but
offers reduced latency and improved privacy.

Appendix C. Changes Since RFC 3709
This appendix summarizes the changes since RFC 3709. The changes
are:
* Combine RFC 3709 and RFC 6170 into one document, and encourage
implementers to support the "data" URI scheme (data:...) that was
originally specified in RFC 6170. Merging RFC 3709 and RFC 6170
lead to many editoral changes throughout the document.
* Drop SHA-1 as the mandatory-to-implement hash algorithm, and
encourage use of the one-way hash function that is employed by the
certificate signature algorithm.
* Update the reference for language tags to be RFC 5646 instead of
the now obsolete RFC 3066.
* No longer require support for the FTP scheme (ftp://...) URI.
* Require support for the HTTP scheme (http://...) URI and the HTTPS
scheme (https://...) URI.
* Require support for the compressed SVG image format with the
image/svg+xml-compressed media type.
* Media types MUST follow the ABNF [RFC5234] that is provided in
Section 4.2 of [RFC4288]. This change resolves Errata ID 2679.
* Remove the requirement that the LogotypeData file name have a file
extension of ".LTD". This change resolves Errata ID 2325.
* Provide ASN.1 modules for the older syntax [OLD-ASN1] and most
recent syntax [NEW-ASN1].
* Provide additional references.
* Provide additional examples.
