1. Introduction
The Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) Crypto Forum Research Group
(CFRG) selected new Diffie-Hellman algorithms ("X25519" and "X448";
[RFC7748]) and signature algorithms ("Ed25519" and "Ed448";
[RFC8032]) for asymmetric key cryptography. This document defines
how to use those algorithms in JOSE in an interoperable manner.
This document defines the conventions to use in the context of
[RFC7515], [RFC7516], and [RFC7517].
While the CFRG also defined two pairs of isogenous elliptic curves
that underlie these algorithms, these curves are not directly
exposed, as the algorithms laid on top are sufficient for the
purposes of JOSE and are much easier to use.
All inputs to and outputs from the Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman
(ECDH) and signature functions are defined to be octet strings, with
the exception of outputs of verification functions, which are
booleans.
Liusvaara Standards Track [Page 2]
RFC 8037 CFRG ECDH and Signatures in JOSE January 2017
1.1. Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
"JWS Signing Input" and "JWS Signature" are defined by [RFC7515].
"Key Agreement with Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral Static"
is defined by Section 4.6 of [RFC7518].
The JOSE key format ("JSON Web Key (JWK)") is defined by [RFC7517]
and thumbprints for it ("JSON Web Key (JWK) Thumbprint") in
[RFC7638].
2. Key Type "OKP"
A new key type (kty) value "OKP" (Octet Key Pair) is defined for
public key algorithms that use octet strings as private and public
keys. It has the following parameters:
o The parameter "kty" MUST be "OKP".
o The parameter "crv" MUST be present and contain the subtype of the
key (from the "JSON Web Elliptic Curve" registry).
o The parameter "x" MUST be present and contain the public key
encoded using the base64url [RFC4648] encoding.
o The parameter "d" MUST be present for private keys and contain the
private key encoded using the base64url encoding. This parameter
MUST NOT be present for public keys.
Note: Do not assume that there is an underlying elliptic curve,
despite the existence of the "crv" and "x" parameters. (For
instance, this key type could be extended to represent Diffie-Hellman
(DH) algorithms based on hyperelliptic surfaces.)
When calculating JWK Thumbprints [RFC7638], the three public key
fields are included in the hash input in lexicographic order: "crv",
"kty", and "x".

3. Algorithms
3.1. Signatures
For the purpose of using the Edwards-curve Digital Signature
Algorithm (EdDSA) for signing data using "JSON Web Signature (JWS)"
[RFC7515], algorithm "EdDSA" is defined here, to be applied as the
value of the "alg" parameter.
The following key subtypes are defined here for use with EdDSA:
"crv" EdDSA Variant
Ed25519 Ed25519
Ed448 Ed448
The key type used with these keys is "OKP" and the algorithm used for
signing is "EdDSA". These subtypes MUST NOT be used for Elliptic
Curve Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral Static (ECDH-ES).
The EdDSA variant used is determined by the subtype of the key
(Ed25519 for "Ed25519" and Ed448 for "Ed448").
3.1.1. Signing
Signing for these is performed by applying the signing algorithm
defined in [RFC8032] to the private key (as private key), public key
(as public key), and the JWS Signing Input (as message). The
resulting signature is the JWS Signature. All inputs and outputs are
octet strings.
3.1.2. Verification
Verification is performed by applying the verification algorithm
defined in [RFC8032] to the public key (as public key), the JWS
Signing Input (as message), and the JWS Signature (as signature).
All inputs are octet strings. If the algorithm accepts, the
signature is valid; otherwise, the signature is invalid.
3.2. ECDH-ES
The following key subtypes are defined here for purpose of "Key
Agreement with Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral Static"
(ECDH-ES):
"crv" ECDH Function Applied
X25519 X25519
X448 X448
Liusvaara Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 8037 CFRG ECDH and Signatures in JOSE January 2017
The key type used with these keys is "OKP". These subtypes MUST NOT
be used for signing.
Section 4.6 of [RFC7518] defines the ECDH-ES algorithms
"ECDH-ES+A128KW", "ECDH-ES+A192KW", "ECDH-ES+A256KW", and "ECDH-ES".
3.2.1. Performing the ECDH Operation
The "x" parameter of the "epk" field is set as follows:
Apply the appropriate ECDH function to the ephemeral private key (as
scalar input) and the standard base point (as u-coordinate input).
The base64url encoding of the output is the value for the "x"
parameter of the "epk" field. All inputs and outputs are octet
strings.
The Z value (raw key agreement output) for key agreement (to be used
in subsequent Key Derivation Function (KDF) as per Section 4.6.2 of
[RFC7518]) is determined as follows:
Apply the appropriate ECDH function to the ephemeral private key (as
scalar input) and receiver public key (as u-coordinate input). The
output is the Z value. All inputs and outputs are octet strings.
4. Security Considerations
Security considerations from [RFC7748] and [RFC8032] apply here.
Do not separate key material from information about what key subtype
it is for. When using keys, check that the algorithm is compatible
with the key subtype for the key. To do otherwise opens the system
up to attacks via mixing up algorithms. It is particularly dangerous
to mix up signature and Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithms.
Although for Ed25519 and Ed448, the signature binds the key used for
signing, do not assume this, as there are many signature algorithms
that fail to make such a binding. If key-binding is desired, include
the key used for signing either inside the JWS protected header or
the data to sign.
If key generation or batch signature verification is performed, a
well-seeded cryptographic random number generator is REQUIRED.
Signing and non-batch signature verification are deterministic
operations and do not need random numbers of any kind.
Liusvaara Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 8037 CFRG ECDH and Signatures in JOSE January 2017
The JSON Web Algorithm (JWA) ECDH-ES KDF construction does not mix
keys into the final shared secret. In key exchange, such mixing
could be a bad mistake; whereas here either the receiver public key
has to be chosen maliciously or the sender has to be malicious in
order to cause problems. In either case, all security evaporates.
The nominal security strengths of X25519 and X448 are ~126 and ~223
bits. Therefore, using 256-bit symmetric encryption (especially key
wrapping and encryption) with X448 is RECOMMENDED.

Appendix A. Examples
To the extent possible, these examples use material taken from test
vectors of [RFC7748] and [RFC8032].
A.1. Ed25519 Private Key
{"kty":"OKP","crv":"Ed25519",
"d":"nWGxne_9WmC6hEr0kuwsxERJxWl7MmkZcDusAxyuf2A",
"x":"11qYAYKxCrfVS_7TyWQHOg7hcvPapiMlrwIaaPcHURo"}
The hexadecimal dump of private key is:
9d 61 b1 9d ef fd 5a 60 ba 84 4a f4 92 ec 2c c4
44 49 c5 69 7b 32 69 19 70 3b ac 03 1c ae 7f 60
And of the public key is:
d7 5a 98 01 82 b1 0a b7 d5 4b fe d3 c9 64 07 3a
0e e1 72 f3 da a6 23 25 af 02 1a 68 f7 07 51 1a
A.2. Ed25519 Public Key
This is the public part of the previous private key (which just omits
"d"):
{"kty":"OKP","crv":"Ed25519",
"x":"11qYAYKxCrfVS_7TyWQHOg7hcvPapiMlrwIaaPcHURo"}
A.3. JWK Thumbprint Canonicalization
The JWK Thumbprint canonicalization of the two examples above (with a
linebreak inserted for formatting reasons) is:
{"crv":"Ed25519","kty":"OKP","x":"11qYAYKxCrfVS_7TyWQHOg7hcvPapiMlrwI
aaPcHURo"}
Which has the SHA-256 hash (in hexadecimal) of
90facafea9b1556698540f70c0117a22ea37bd5cf3ed3c47093c1707282b4b89,
which results in the base64url encoded JWK Thumbprint representation
of "kPrK_qmxVWaYVA9wwBF6Iuo3vVzz7TxHCTwXBygrS4k".
Liusvaara Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 8037 CFRG ECDH and Signatures in JOSE January 2017
A.4. Ed25519 Signing
The JWS protected header is:
{"alg":"EdDSA"}
This has the base64url encoding of:
eyJhbGciOiJFZERTQSJ9
The payload is (text):
Example of Ed25519 signing
This has the base64url encoding of:
RXhhbXBsZSBvZiBFZDI1NTE5IHNpZ25pbmc
The JWS signing input is (a concatenation of base64url encoding of
the (protected) header, a dot, and base64url encoding of the payload)
is:
eyJhbGciOiJFZERTQSJ9.RXhhbXBsZSBvZiBFZDI1NTE5IHNpZ25pbmc
Applying the Ed25519 signing algorithm using the private key, public
key, and the JWS signing input yields the signature (hex):
86 0c 98 d2 29 7f 30 60 a3 3f 42 73 96 72 d6 1b
53 cf 3a de fe d3 d3 c6 72 f3 20 dc 02 1b 41 1e
9d 59 b8 62 8d c3 51 e2 48 b8 8b 29 46 8e 0e 41
85 5b 0f b7 d8 3b b1 5b e9 02 bf cc b8 cd 0a 02
Converting this to base64url yields:
hgyY0il_MGCjP0JzlnLWG1PPOt7-09PGcvMg3AIbQR6dWbhijcNR4ki4iylGjg5BhVsPt
9g7sVvpAr_MuM0KAg
So the compact serialization of the JWS is (a concatenation of
signing input, a dot, and base64url encoding of the signature):
eyJhbGciOiJFZERTQSJ9.RXhhbXBsZSBvZiBFZDI1NTE5IHNpZ25pbmc.hgyY0il_MGCj
P0JzlnLWG1PPOt7-09PGcvMg3AIbQR6dWbhijcNR4ki4iylGjg5BhVsPt9g7sVvpAr_Mu
M0KAg
Liusvaara Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 8037 CFRG ECDH and Signatures in JOSE January 2017
A.5. Ed25519 Validation
The JWS from the example above is:
eyJhbGciOiJFZERTQSJ9.RXhhbXBsZSBvZiBFZDI1NTE5IHNpZ25pbmc.hgyY0il_MGCj
P0JzlnLWG1PPOt7-09PGcvMg3AIbQR6dWbhijcNR4ki4iylGjg5BhVsPt9g7sVvpAr_Mu
M0KAg
This has 2 dots in it, so it might be valid a JWS. Base64url
decoding the protected header yields:
{"alg":"EdDSA"}
So this is an EdDSA signature. Now the key has: "kty":"OKP" and
"crv":"Ed25519", so the signature is Ed25519 signature.
The signing input is the part before the second dot:
eyJhbGciOiJFZERTQSJ9.RXhhbXBsZSBvZiBFZDI1NTE5IHNpZ25pbmc
Applying the Ed25519 verification algorithm to the public key, JWS
signing input, and the signature yields true. So the signature is
valid. The message is the base64url decoding of the part between the
dots:
Example of Ed25519 Signing
A.6. ECDH-ES with X25519
The public key to encrypt to is:
{"kty":"OKP","crv":"X25519","kid":"Bob",
"x":"3p7bfXt9wbTTW2HC7OQ1Nz-DQ8hbeGdNrfx-FG-IK08"}
The public key from the target key is (hex):
de 9e db 7d 7b 7d c1 b4 d3 5b 61 c2 ec e4 35 37
3f 83 43 c8 5b 78 67 4d ad fc 7e 14 6f 88 2b 4f
The ephemeral secret happens to be (hex):
77 07 6d 0a 73 18 a5 7d 3c 16 c1 72 51 b2 66 45
df 4c 2f 87 eb c0 99 2a b1 77 fb a5 1d b9 2c 2a
So the ephemeral public key is X25519(ephkey, G) (hex):
85 20 f0 09 89 30 a7 54 74 8b 7d dc b4 3e f7 5a
0d bf 3a 0d 26 38 1a f4 eb a4 a9 8e aa 9b 4e 6a
Liusvaara Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 8037 CFRG ECDH and Signatures in JOSE January 2017
This is represented as the ephemeral public key value:
{"kty":"OKP","crv":"X25519",
"x":"hSDwCYkwp1R0i33ctD73Wg2_Og0mOBr066SpjqqbTmo"}
So the protected header could be, for example:
{"alg":"ECDH-ES+A128KW","epk":{"kty":"OKP","crv":"X25519",
"x":"hSDwCYkwp1R0i33ctD73Wg2_Og0mOBr066SpjqqbTmo"},
"enc":"A128GCM","kid":"Bob"}
And the sender computes the DH Z value as X25519(ephkey, recv_pub)
(hex):
4a 5d 9d 5b a4 ce 2d e1 72 8e 3b f4 80 35 0f 25
e0 7e 21 c9 47 d1 9e 33 76 f0 9b 3c 1e 16 17 42
The receiver computes the DH Z value as X25519(seckey, ephkey_pub)
(hex):
4a 5d 9d 5b a4 ce 2d e1 72 8e 3b f4 80 35 0f 25
e0 7e 21 c9 47 d1 9e 33 76 f0 9b 3c 1e 16 17 42
This is the same as the sender's value (both sides run this through
the KDF before using it as a direct encryption key or AES128-KW key).
A.7. ECDH-ES with X448
The public key to encrypt to (with a linebreak inserted for
formatting reasons) is:
{"kty":"OKP","crv":"X448","kid":"Dave",
"x":"PreoKbDNIPW8_AtZm2_sz22kYnEHvbDU80W0MCfYuXL8PjT7QjKhPKcG3LV67D2
uB73BxnvzNgk"}
The public key from the target key is (hex):
3e b7 a8 29 b0 cd 20 f5 bc fc 0b 59 9b 6f ec cf
6d a4 62 71 07 bd b0 d4 f3 45 b4 30 27 d8 b9 72
fc 3e 34 fb 42 32 a1 3c a7 06 dc b5 7a ec 3d ae
07 bd c1 c6 7b f3 36 09
The ephemeral secret happens to be (hex):
9a 8f 49 25 d1 51 9f 57 75 cf 46 b0 4b 58 00 d4
ee 9e e8 ba e8 bc 55 65 d4 98 c2 8d d9 c9 ba f5
74 a9 41 97 44 89 73 91 00 63 82 a6 f1 27 ab 1d
9a c2 d8 c0 a5 98 72 6b
Liusvaara Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 8037 CFRG ECDH and Signatures in JOSE January 2017
So the ephemeral public key is X448(ephkey, G) (hex):
9b 08 f7 cc 31 b7 e3 e6 7d 22 d5 ae a1 21 07 4a
27 3b d2 b8 3d e0 9c 63 fa a7 3d 2c 22 c5 d9 bb
c8 36 64 72 41 d9 53 d4 0c 5b 12 da 88 12 0d 53
17 7f 80 e5 32 c4 1f a0
This is packed into the ephemeral public key value (a linebreak
inserted for formatting purposes):
{"kty":"OKP","crv":"X448",
"x":"mwj3zDG34-Z9ItWuoSEHSic70rg94Jxj-qc9LCLF2bvINmRyQdlT1AxbEtqIEg1
TF3-A5TLEH6A"}
So the protected header could be, for example (a linebreak inserted
for formatting purposes):
{"alg":"ECDH-ES+A256KW","epk":{"kty":"OKP","crv":"X448",
"x":"mwj3zDG34-Z9ItWuoSEHSic70rg94Jxj-qc9LCLF2bvINmRyQdlT1AxbEtqIEg1
TF3-A5TLEH6A"},"enc":"A256GCM","kid":"Dave"}
And the sender computes the DH Z value as X448(ephkey,recv_pub)
(hex):
07 ff f4 18 1a c6 cc 95 ec 1c 16 a9 4a 0f 74 d1
2d a2 32 ce 40 a7 75 52 28 1d 28 2b b6 0c 0b 56
fd 24 64 c3 35 54 39 36 52 1c 24 40 30 85 d5 9a
44 9a 50 37 51 4a 87 9d
The receiver computes the DH Z value as X448(seckey, ephkey_pub)
(hex):
07 ff f4 18 1a c6 cc 95 ec 1c 16 a9 4a 0f 74 d1
2d a2 32 ce 40 a7 75 52 28 1d 28 2b b6 0c 0b 56
fd 24 64 c3 35 54 39 36 52 1c 24 40 30 85 d5 9a
44 9a 50 37 51 4a 87 9d
This is the same as the sender's value (both sides run this through
KDF before using it as the direct encryption key or AES256-KW key).
