draft-ietf-sidrops-rpkimaxlen-15
Abstract
This document recommends ways to reduce the forged-origin hijack
attack surface by prudently limiting the set of IP prefixes that are
included in a Route Origin Authorization (ROA). One recommendation
is to avoid using the maxLength attribute in ROAs except in some
specific cases. The recommendations complement and extend those in
RFC 7115. The document also discusses the creation of ROAs for
facilitating the use of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)
mitigation services. Considerations related to ROAs and origin
validation in the context of destination-based Remotely Triggered
Discard Route (RTDR) (elsewhere referred to as "Remotely Triggered
Black Hole") filtering are also highlighted.

1. Introduction
The RPKI [RFC6480] uses Route Origin Authorizations (ROAs) to create
a cryptographically verifiable mapping from an IP prefix to a set of
autonomous systems (ASes) that are authorized to originate that
prefix. Each ROA contains a set of IP prefixes, and the AS number of
one of the ASes authorized to originate all the IP prefixes in the
set [RFC6482]. The ROA is cryptographically signed by the party that
holds a certificate for the set of IP prefixes.
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
The ROA format also supports a maxLength attribute. According to
[RFC6482], "When present, the maxLength specifies the maximum length
of the IP address prefix that the AS is authorized to advertise."
Thus, rather than requiring the ROA to list each prefix that the AS
is authorized to originate, the maxLength attribute provides a
shorthand that authorizes an AS to originate a set of IP prefixes.
However, measurements of RPKI deployments have found that the use of
the maxLength in ROAs tends to lead to security problems. In
particular, measurements taken in June 2017 showed that of the
prefixes specified in ROAs that use the maxLength attribute, 84% were
vulnerable to a forged-origin sub-prefix hijack [HARMFUL]. The
forged-origin prefix or sub-prefix hijack involves inserting the
legitimate AS as specified in the ROA as the origin AS in the
AS_PATH, and can be launched against any IP prefix/sub-prefix that
has a ROA. Consider a prefix/sub-prefix that has a ROA but is
unused, i.e., not announced in BGP by a legitimate AS. A forged
origin hijack involving such a prefix/sub-prefix can propagate widely
throughout the Internet. On the other hand, if the prefix/sub-prefix
were announced by the legitimate AS, then the propagation of the
forged-origin hijack is somewhat limited because of its increased
AS_PATH length relative to the legitimate announcement. Of course,
forged-origin hijacks are harmful in both cases but the extent of
harm is greater for unannounced prefixes. See Section 3 for detailed
discussion.
For this reason, this document recommends that, whenever possible,
operators SHOULD use "minimal ROAs" that authorize only those IP
prefixes that are actually originated in BGP, and no other prefixes.
Further, it recommends ways to reduce the forged-origin attack
surface by prudently limiting the address space that is included in
Route Origin Authorizations (ROAs). One recommendation is to avoid
using the maxLength attribute in ROAs except in some specific cases.
The recommendations complement and extend those in [RFC7115]. The
document also discusses the creation of ROAs for facilitating the use
of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) mitigation services.
Considerations related to ROAs and origin validation in the context
of destination-based Remotely Triggered Discard Route (RTDR)
(elsewhere referred to as "Remotely Triggered Black Hole") filtering
are also highlighted.
One ideal place to implement the ROA related recommendations is in
the user interfaces for configuring ROAs. Recommendations for
implementors of such user interfaces are provided in Section 7
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
Best current practices described in this document require no changes
to the RPKI specification and will not increase the number of signed
ROAs in the RPKI because ROAs already support lists of IP prefixes
[RFC6482].
1.1. Requirements
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. Documentation Prefixes
The documentation prefixes recommended in [RFC5737] are insufficient
for use as example prefixes in this document. Therefore, this
document uses [RFC1918] address space for constructing example
prefixes.
Note that although the examples in this document are presented using
IPv4 prefixes, all the analysis thereof and the recommendations made
are equally valid for the equivalent IPv6 cases.
2. Suggested Reading
It is assumed that the reader understands BGP [RFC4271], RPKI
[RFC6480], Route Origin Authorizations (ROAs) [RFC6482], RPKI-based
Prefix Validation [RFC6811], and BGPsec [RFC8205].
3. Forged-Origin Sub-prefix Hijack
A detailed description and discussion of forged-origin sub-prefix
hijacks are presented here, especially considering the case when the
sub-prefix is not announced in BGP. The forged-origin sub-prefix
hijack is relevant to a scenario in which:
(1) the RPKI [RFC6480] is deployed, and
(2) routers use RPKI origin validation to drop invalid routes
[RFC6811], but
(3) BGPsec [RFC8205] (or any similar method to validate the
truthfulness of the BGP AS_PATH attribute) is not deployed.
Note that this set of assumptions accurately describes a substantial
and growing number of large Internet networks at the time of writing.
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
The forged-origin sub-prefix hijack [RFC7115] [GCHSS] is described
here using a running example.
Consider the IP prefix 192.168.0.0/16 which is allocated to an
organization that also operates AS 64496. In BGP, AS 64496
originates the IP prefix 192.168.0.0/16 as well as its sub-prefix
192.168.225.0/24. Therefore, the RPKI should contain a ROA
authorizing AS 64496 to originate these two IP prefixes.
Suppose, however, the organization issues and publishes a ROA
including a maxLength value of 24:
ROA:(192.168.0.0/16-24, AS 64496)
We refer to the above as a "loose ROA" since it authorizes AS 64496
to originate any sub-prefix of 192.168.0.0/16 up to and including
length /24, rather than only those prefixes that are intended to be
announced in BGP.
Because AS 64496 only originates two prefixes in BGP: 192.168.0.0/16
and 192.168.225.0/24, all other prefixes authorized by the "loose
ROA" (for instance, 192.168.0.0/24), are vulnerable to the following
forged-origin sub-prefix hijack [RFC7115] [GCHSS]:
The hijacker AS 64511 sends a BGP announcement "192.168.0.0/24: AS
64511, AS 64496", falsely claiming that AS 64511 is a neighbor of
AS 64496 and falsely claiming that AS 64496 originates the IP
prefix 192.168.0.0/24. In fact, the IP prefix 192.168.0.0/24 is
not originated by AS 64496.
The hijacker's BGP announcement is valid according to the RPKI
since the ROA (192.168.0.0/16-24, AS 64496) authorizes AS 64496 to
originate BGP routes for 192.168.0.0/24.
Because AS 64496 does not actually originate a route for
192.168.0.0/24, the hijacker's route is the only route for
192.168.0.0/24. Longest-prefix-match routing ensures that the
hijacker's route to the sub-prefix 192.168.0.0/24 is always
preferred over the legitimate route to 192.168.0.0/16 originated
by AS 64496.
Thus, the hijacker's route propagates through the Internet, and
traffic destined for IP addresses in 192.168.0.0/24 will be delivered
to the hijacker.
The forged-origin sub-prefix hijack would have failed if a "minimal
ROA" described below was used instead of the "loose ROA". In this
example, a "minimal ROA" would be:
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
ROA:(192.168.0.0/16, 192.168.225.0/24, AS 64496)
This ROA is "minimal" because it includes only those IP prefixes that
AS 64496 originates in BGP, but no other IP prefixes [RFC6907].
The "minimal ROA" renders AS 64511's BGP announcement invalid
because:
(1) this ROA "covers" the attacker's announcement (since
192.168.0.0/24 is a sub-prefix of 192.168.0.0/16), and
(2) there is no ROA "matching" the attacker's announcement (there
is no ROA for AS 64511 and IP prefix 192.168.0.0/24) [RFC6811].
If routers ignore invalid BGP announcements, the minimal ROA above
ensures that the sub-prefix hijack will fail.
Thus, if a "minimal ROA" had been used, the attacker would be forced
to launch a forged-origin prefix hijack in order to attract traffic,
as follows:
The hijacker AS 64511 sends a BGP announcement "192.168.0.0/16: AS
64511, AS 64496", falsely claiming that AS 64511 is a neighbor of
AS 64496.
This forged-origin prefix hijack is significantly less damaging than
the forged-origin sub-prefix hijack:
AS 64496 legitimately originates 192.168.0.0/16 in BGP, so the
hijacker AS 64511 is not presenting the only route to
192.168.0.0/16.
Moreover, the path originated by AS 64511 is one hop longer than
the path originated by the legitimate origin AS 64496.
As discussed in [LSG16], this means that the hijacker will attract
less traffic than it would have in the forged-origin sub-prefix
hijack, where the hijacker presents the only route to the hijacked
sub-prefix.
In summary, a forged-origin sub-prefix hijack has the same impact as
a regular sub-prefix hijack, despite the increased AS_PATH length of
the illegitimate route. A forged-origin sub-prefix hijack is also
more damaging than the forged-origin prefix hijack.

4. Measurements of the RPKI
Network measurements taken in June 2017 showed that 12% of the IP
prefixes authorized in ROAs have a maxLength longer than their prefix
length. Of these, the vast majority (84%) were non-minimal, as they
included sub-prefixes that are not announced in BGP by the legitimate
AS, and were thus vulnerable to forged-origin sub-prefix hijacks.
See [GSG17] for details.
These measurements suggest that operators commonly misconfigure the
maxLength attribute, and unwittingly open themselves up to forged-
origin sub-prefix hijacks. That is, they are exposing a much larger
attack surface for forged-origin hijacks than necessary.
5. Recommendations about Minimal ROAs and maxLength
Operators SHOULD use "minimal ROAs" whenever possible. A minimal ROA
contains only those IP prefixes that are actually originated by an AS
in BGP and no other IP prefixes. (See Section 3 for an example.)
In general, operators SHOULD avoid using the maxLength attribute in
their ROAs, since its inclusion will usually make the ROA non-
minimal.
One such exception may be when all more specific prefixes permitted
by the maxLength are actually announced by the AS in the ROA.
Another exception is where: (a) the maxLength is substantially larger
compared to the specified prefix length in the ROA, and (b) a large
number of more specific prefixes in that range are announced by the
AS in the ROA. In practice, this case should occur rarely (if at
all). Operator discretion is necessary in this case.
This practice requires no changes to the RPKI specification and need
not increase the number of signed ROAs in the RPKI because ROAs
already support lists of IP prefixes [RFC6482]. See also [GSG17] for
further discussion of why this practice will have minimal impact on
the performance of the RPKI ecosystem.
Operators implementing these recommendations and that have existing
ROAs published in the RPKI system MUST perform a review of such
objects, especially where they make use of the maxLength attribute,
to ensure that the set of included prefixes is "minimal" with respect
to the current BGP origination and routing policies. Published ROAs
MUST be replaced as necessary. Such an exercise MUST be repeated
whenever the operator makes changes to either policy.
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
5.1. Facilitating Ad Hoc Routing Changes and DDoS Mitigation
Operational requirements may require that a route for an IP prefix be
originated on an ad hoc basis, with little or no prior warning. An
example of such a situation arises when an operator wishes to make
use of DDoS mitigation services that use BGP to redirect traffic via
a "scrubbing center".
In order to ensure that such ad hoc routing changes are effective, a
ROA validating the new route should exist. However a difficulty
arises due to the fact that newly created objects in the RPKI are
made visible to relying parties considerably more slowly than routing
updates in BGP.
Ideally, it would not be necessary to pre-create the ROA which
validates the ad hoc route, and instead create it "on-the-fly" as
required. However, this is practical only if the latency imposed by
the propagation of RPKI data is guaranteed to be within acceptable
limits in the circumstances. For time-critical interventions such as
responding to a DDoS attack, this is unlikely to be the case.
Thus, the ROA in question will usually need to be created well in
advance of the routing intervention, but such a ROA will be non-
minimal, since it includes an IP prefix that is sometimes (but not
always) originated in BGP.
In this case, the ROA SHOULD include only:
(1) the set of IP prefixes that are always originated in BGP, and
(2) the set of IP prefixes that are sometimes, but not always,
originated in BGP.
The ROA SHOULD NOT include any IP prefixes that the operator knows
will not be originated in BGP. In general, the ROA SHOULD NOT make
use of the maxLength attribute unless doing so has no impact on the
set of included prefixes.
The running example is now extended to illustrate one situation where
it is not possible to issue a minimal ROA.
Consider the following scenario prior to the deployment of RPKI.
Suppose AS 64496 announced 192.168.0.0/16 and has a contract with a
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) mitigation service provider that
holds AS 64500. Further, assume that the DDoS mitigation service
contract applies to all IP addresses covered by 192.168.0.0/22. When
a DDoS attack is detected and reported by AS 64496, AS 64500
immediately originates 192.168.0.0/22, thus attracting all the DDoS
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
traffic to itself. The traffic is scrubbed at AS 64500 and then sent
back to AS 64496 over a backhaul link. Notice that, during a DDoS
attack, the DDoS mitigation service provider AS 64500 originates a
/22 prefix that is longer than AS 64496's /16 prefix, and so all the
traffic (destined to addresses in 192.168.0.0/22) that normally goes
to AS 64496 goes to AS 64500 instead. In some deployments, the
origination of the /22 route is performed by AS 64496 and announced
only to AS 64500, which then announces transit for that prefix. This
variation does not change the properties considered here.
First, suppose the RPKI only had the minimal ROA for AS 64496, as
described in Section 3. But if there is no ROA authorizing AS 64500
to announce the /22 prefix, then the DDoS mitigation (and traffic
scrubbing) scheme would not work. That is, if AS 64500 originates
the /22 prefix in BGP during DDoS attacks, the announcement would be
invalid [RFC6811].
Therefore, the RPKI should have two ROAs: one for AS 64496 and one
for AS 64500.
ROA:(192.168.0.0/16, 192.168.225.0/24, AS 64496)
ROA:(192.168.0.0/22, AS 64500)
Neither ROA uses the maxLength attribute. But the second ROA is not
"minimal" because it contains a /22 prefix that is not originated by
anyone in BGP during normal operations. The /22 prefix is only
originated by AS 64500 as part of its DDoS mitigation service during
a DDoS attack.
Notice, however, that this scheme does not come without risks.
Namely, all IP addresses in 192.168.0.0/22 are vulnerable to a
forged-origin sub-prefix hijack during normal operations, when the
/22 prefix is not originated. (The hijacker AS 64511 would send the
BGP announcement "192.168.0.0/22: AS 64511, AS 64500", falsely
claiming that AS 64511 is a neighbor of AS 64500 and falsely claiming
that AS 64500 originates 192.168.0.0/22.)
In some situations, the DDoS mitigation service at AS 64500 might
want to limit the amount of DDoS traffic that it attracts and scrubs.
Suppose that a DDoS attack only targets IP addresses in
192.168.0.0/24. Then, the DDoS mitigation service at AS 64500 only
wants to attract the traffic designated for the /24 prefix that is
under attack, but not the entire /22 prefix. To allow for this, the
RPKI should have two ROAs: one for AS 64496 and one for AS 64500.
ROA:(192.168.0.0/16, 192.168.225.0/24, AS 64496)
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
ROA:(192.168.0.0/22-24, AS 64500)
The second ROA uses the maxLength attribute because it is designed to
explicitly enable AS 64500 to originate any /24 sub-prefix of
192.168.0.0/22.
As before, the second ROA is not "minimal" because it contains
prefixes that are not originated by anyone in BGP during normal
operations. As before, all IP addresses in 192.168.0.0/22 are
vulnerable to a forged-origin sub-prefix hijack during normal
operations, when the /22 prefix is not originated.
The use of maxLength in this second ROA also comes with additional
risk. While it permits the DDoS mitigation service at AS 64500 to
originate prefix 192.168.0.0/24 during a DDoS attack in that space,
it also makes the other /24 prefixes covered by the /22 prefix (i.e.,
192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, 192.168.3.0/24) vulnerable to forged-
origin sub-prefix attacks.
5.2. Defensive De-aggregation In Response To Prefix Hijacks
In responding to certain classes of prefix hijack, in particular, the
forged-origin sub-prefix hijack described above, it may be desirable
for the victim to perform "defensive de-aggregation", i.e. to begin
originating more-specific prefixes in order to compete with the
hijack routes for selection as the best path in networks that are not
performing RPKI-based route origin validation (ROV) [RFC6811].
In some topologies, where at least one AS on every path between the
victim and hijacker filters ROV invalid prefixes, it may be the case
that the existence of a minimal ROA issued by the victim prevents the
defensive more-specific prefixes from being propagated to the
networks topologically close to the attacker, thus hampering the
effectiveness of this response.
Nevertheless, this document recommends that where possible, network
operators publish minimal ROAs even in the face of this risk. This
is because:
* Minimal ROAs offer the best possible protection against the
immediate impact of such an attack, rendering the need for such a
response less likely;
* Increasing ROV adoption by network operators will, over time,
decrease the size of the neighborhoods in which this risk exists;
and
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
* Other methods for reducing the size of such neighborhoods are
available to potential victims, such as establishing direct EBGP
adjacencies with networks from whom the defensive routes would
otherwise be hidden.
6. Considerations for RTDR Filtering Scenarios
Considerations related to ROAs and origin validation [RFC6811] for
the case of destination-based Remotely Triggered Discard Route (RTDR)
(elsewhere referred to as "Remotely Triggered Black Hole") filtering
are addressed here. In RTDR filtering, highly specific prefixes
(greater than /24 in IPv4 and greater than /48 in IPv6; possibly even
/32 (IPv4) and /128 (IPv6)) are announced in BGP. These
announcements are tagged with the Well-known BGP Community defined by
[RFC7999]. It is obviously not desirable to use a large maxLength or
include any such highly specific prefixes in the ROAs to accommodate
destination-based RTDR filtering, for the reasons set out above.
As a result, RPKI-based route origin validation [RFC6811] is a poor
fit for the validation of RTDR routes. Specification of new
procedures to address this use case through the use of the RPKI is
outside the scope of this document.
Therefore:
* Operators SHOULD NOT create non-minimal ROAs (either by creating
additional ROAs, or through the use of maxLength) for the purpose
of advertising RTDR routes; and
* Operators providing a means for operators of neighboring
autonomous systems to advertise RTDR routes via BGP MUST NOT make
the creation of non-minimal ROAs a pre-requisite for its use.
7. User Interface Design Recommendations
Most operator interaction with the RPKI system when creating or
modifying ROAs will occur via a user interface that abstracts the
underlying encoding, signing and publishing operations.
This document recommends that designers and/or providers of such user
interfaces SHOULD provide warnings to draw the user's attention to
the risks of creating non-minimal ROAs in general, and use of the
maxLength attribute in particular.
Gilad, et al. Expires 15 February 2023 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft RPKI maxLength August 2022
Warnings provided by such a system may vary in nature from generic
warnings based purely on the inclusion of the maxLength attribute, to
customised guidance based on the observable BGP routing policy of the
operator in question. The choices made in this respect are expected
to be dependent on the target user audience of the implementation.
8. Operational Considerations
The recommendations specified in this document, in particular, those
in Section 5, involve trade-offs between operational agility and
security.
Operators adopting the recommended practice of issuing minimal ROAs
will, by definition need to make changes to their existing set of
issued ROAs in order to effect changes to the set of prefixes which
are originated in BGP.
Even in the case of routing changes that are planned in advance,
existing procedures may need to be updated to incorporate changes to
issued ROAs, and may require additional time allowed for those
changes to propagate.
Operators are encouraged to carefully review the issues highlighted
(especially those in Section 5.1 and Section 5.2) in light of their
specific operational requirements. Failure to do so could, in the
worst case, result in a self-inflicted denial of service.
The recommendations made in section 5 are likely to be more onerous
for operators utilising large IP address space allocations from which
many more-specific advertisements are made in BGP. Operators of such
networks are encouraged to seek opportunities to automate the
required procedures in order to minimise manual operational burden.
9. Security Considerations
This document makes recommendations regarding the use of RPKI-based
origin validation as defined in [RFC6811], and as such introduces no
additional security considerations beyond those specified therein.
10. IANA Considerations
This document includes no request to IANA.
