1. Introduction
XML digital signatures, canonicalization, and encryption were
standardized by the W3C and by the joint IETF/W3C XMLDSIG working
group [W3C] [XMLSEC]. These are now W3C Recommendations and some are
also RFCs. They are available as follows:
+================+=============+======================+
| RFC | W3C REC | Topic |
| Status | | |
+================+=============+======================+
| [RFC3275] | [XMLDSIG10] | XML Digital |
| Draft Standard | | Signatures |
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
| [RFC3076] | [CANON10] | Canonical XML |
| Informational | | |
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
| - - - - - - | [XMLENC10] | XML Encryption 1.0 |
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
| [RFC3741] | [XCANON] | Exclusive XML |
| Informational | | Canonicalization 1.0 |
+----------------+-------------+----------------------+
Table 1
These documents and recommendations use URIs [RFC3986] to identify
algorithms and keying information types. The W3C has subsequently
produced updated XML Signature 1.1 [XMLDSIG11], Canonical XML 1.1
[CANON11], and XML Encryption 1.1 [XMLENC11] versions, as well as a
new XML Signature Properties specification [XMLDSIG-PROP].
In addition, the XML Encryption recommendation has been augmented by
[GENERIC], which defines algorithms, XML types, and elements
necessary to use generic hybrid ciphers in XML security applications.
[GENERIC] also provides for a key encapsulation algorithm and a data
encapsulation algorithm, with the combination of the two forming the
generic hybrid cipher.
All camel-case element names (names with both interior upper and
lower case letters) herein, such as DigestValue, are from these
documents.
This document is an updated convenient reference list of URIs and
corresponding algorithms in which there is expressed interest. This
document fixes Errata [Err3597], [Err3965], and [Err4004], and
obsoletes [RFC6931].
All of the URIs for algorithms and data types herein are listed in
the indexes in Section 4. Of these URIs, those that were added by
earlier RFCs or by this document have a subsection in Section 2 or 3.
A few URIs defined elsewhere also have a subsection in Section 2 or
3, but most such URIs do not. For example, use of SHA-256 as defined
in [XMLENC11] has no subsection here but is included in the indexes
in Section 4.
Specification in this document of the URI representing an algorithm
does not imply endorsement of the algorithm for any particular
purpose. A protocol specification, which this is not, generally
gives algorithm and implementation requirements for the protocol.
Security considerations for algorithms are constantly evolving, as
documented elsewhere. This specification simply provides some URIs
and relevant formatting when those URIs are used.
This document is not intended to change the algorithm implementation
requirements of any IETF or W3C document. Use of terminology from
[RFC2119] and [RFC8174] is intended to be only such as is already
stated or implied by other authoritative documents.
Progressing XML Digital Signature [RFC3275] along the Standards Track
required removal of any algorithms from the original version
[RFC3075] for which there was not demonstrated interoperability.
This required removal of the Minimal Canonicalization algorithm, in
which there was continued interest. The URI for Minimal
Canonicalization was included in [RFC6931] and is included here.
1.1. 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.
"camel-case" refers to terms that are mostly lower case but have
internal capital letters.

2. Algorithms
The URI [RFC3986] that was dropped from the XML Digital Signature
standard due to the transition from Proposed Standard to Draft
Standard [RFC3275] is included in Section 2.4 with its original
http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#
prefix so as to avoid changing the XMLDSIG standard's namespace.
Additional algorithms in RFC 4051 were given URIs that start with
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#
Further algorithms added in [RFC6931] were given URIs that start with
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#
and algorithms added in this document are given URIs that start with
http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#
In addition, for ease of reference, this document includes in the
indexes in Section 4 many cryptographic algorithm URIs from XML
security documents using the namespaces with which they are defined
in those documents as follows:
http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#
for some URIs specified in [RFC3275],
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#
for some URIs specified in [XMLENC10], and
http://www.w3/org/xmlsec-ghc#
for some URIs specified in [GENERIC].
See also [XMLSECXREF].
2.1. DigestMethod (Hash) Algorithms
These algorithms are usable wherever a DigestMethod element occurs.
2.1.1. MD5
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#md5
The MD5 algorithm [RFC1321] takes no explicit parameters. An example
of an MD5 DigestAlgorithm element is:
<DigestAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#md5"/>
An MD5 digest is a 128-bit string. The content of the DigestValue
element SHALL be the base64 [RFC4648] encoding of this bit string
viewed as a 16-octet stream. See [RFC6151] for MD5 security
considerations.
2.1.2. SHA-224
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#sha224
The SHA-224 algorithm [FIPS180-4] [RFC6234] takes no explicit
parameters. An example of a SHA-224 DigestAlgorithm element is:
<DigestAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#sha224" />
A SHA-224 digest is a 224-bit string. The content of the DigestValue
element SHALL be the base64 [RFC4648] encoding of this string viewed
as a 28-octet stream.
2.1.3. SHA-384
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#sha384
The SHA-384 algorithm [FIPS180-4] takes no explicit parameters. An
example of a SHA-384 DigestAlgorithm element is:
<DigestAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#sha384" />
A SHA-384 digest is a 384-bit string. The content of the DigestValue
element SHALL be the base64 [RFC4648] encoding of this string viewed
as a 48-octet stream.
2.1.4. Whirlpool
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#whirlpool
The Whirlpool algorithm [ISO-10118-3] takes no explicit parameters.
An example of a Whirlpool DigestAlgorithm element is:
<DigestAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#whirlpool" />
A Whirlpool digest is a 512-bit string. The content of the
DigestValue element SHALL be the base64 [RFC4648] encoding of this
string viewed as a 64-octet stream.
2.1.5. SHA-3 Algorithms
Identifiers:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#sha3-224
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#sha3-256
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#sha3-384
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#sha3-512
NIST conducted a hash function competition for an alternative to the
SHA family. The Keccak-f[1600] algorithm was selected [KECCAK].
This hash function is commonly referred to as "SHA-3" [FIPS202].
A SHA-3 224, 256, 384, and 512 digest is a 224-, 256-, 384-, and
512-bit string, respectively. The content of the DigestValue element
SHALL be the base64 [RFC4648] encoding of this string viewed as a
28-, 32-, 48-, and 64-octet stream, respectively. An example of a
SHA3-224 DigestAlgorithm element is:
<DigestAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#sha3-224" />
2.2. SignatureMethod MAC Algorithms
This section covers SignatureMethod Message Authentication Code (MAC)
Algorithms.
Note: Some text in this section is duplicated from [RFC3275] for the
convenience of the reader. [RFC3275] is normative in case of
conflict.
2.2.1. HMAC-MD5
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-md5
The HMAC algorithm [RFC2104] takes the truncation length in bits as a
parameter; if the parameter is not specified, then all the bits of
the hash are output. An example of an HMAC-MD5 SignatureMethod
element is as follows:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-md5">
<HMACOutputLength>112</HMACOutputLength>
</SignatureMethod>
The output of the HMAC algorithm is the output (possibly truncated)
of the chosen digest algorithm. This value SHALL be base64 [RFC4648]
encoded in the same straightforward fashion as the output of the
digest algorithms. Example: the SignatureValue element for the HMAC-
MD5 digest
9294727A 3638BB1C 13F48EF8 158BFC9D
from the test vectors in [RFC2104] would be
kpRyejY4uxwT9I74FYv8nQ==
Schema Definition:
<simpleType name="HMACOutputLength">
<restriction base="integer"/>
</simpleType>
DTD:
<!ELEMENT HMACOutputLength (#PCDATA) >
The Schema Definition and DTD immediately above are copied from
[RFC3275].
See [RFC6151] for HMAC-MD5 security considerations.
2.2.2. HMAC SHA Variations
Identifiers:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-sha224
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-sha256
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-sha384
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-sha512
SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 [FIPS180-4] [RFC6234] can also
be used in HMAC as described in Section 2.2.1 for HMAC-MD5.
2.2.3. HMAC-RIPEMD160
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-ripemd160
RIPEMD-160 [ISO-10118-3] is a 160-bit hash that is used here in HMAC.
The output can be optionally truncated. An example is as follows:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-ripemd160">
<HMACOutputLength>144</HMACOutputLength>
</SignatureMethod>
2.2.4. Poly1305
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#poly1305
Poly1305 [RFC8439] [POLY1305] is a high-speed message authentication
code algorithm. It takes a 32-octet one-time key and a message and
produces a 16-octet tag, which is used to authenticate the message.
An example of a Poly1305 SignatureMethod element is as follows:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#poly1305"/>
2.2.5. SipHash-2-4
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#siphash-2-4
SipHash [SipHash1] [SipHash2] computes a 64-bit MAC from a 128-bit
secret key and a variable-length message. An example of a SipHash-
2-4 SignatureMethod element is as follows:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#siphash-2-4"/>
2.2.6. XMSS and XMSSMT
XMSS (eXtended Merkle Signature Scheme) and XMSSMT (XMSS Multi-Tree)
[RFC8391] are stateful hash-based signature schemes [NIST800-208].
According to NIST, it is believed that the security of these schemes
depends only on the security of the underlying hash functions, in
particular the infeasibility of finding a preimage or a second
preimage, and it is believed that the security of these hash
functions will not be broken by the development of large-scale
quantum computers.
For further information on the intended usage of these signature
schemes and the careful state management required to maintain their
strength, see [NIST800-208].
IANA maintains a registry whose entries correspond to the XMSS
Identifiers below (see [XMSS]). The fragment part of the URIs is
formed by replacing occurrences of underscore ("_") in the name
appearing in the IANA registry with hyphen ("-").

http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#xmss-shake256-20-256
The hash functions used in the XMSS signature schemes above are SHA2
[RFC6234] or one of the two SHAKE extensible output functions
[FIPS202] as indicated by the second token of the URI extension
(SHAKE means SHAKE128). The tree height for XMSS is 10, 16, or 20 as
indicated by the third token of the URI extension. The SHA2 or SHAKE
output size is 192, 256, or 512 bits as indicated by the final token
of the URI extension. SHA2 with 192 bits of output means
SHA2-256/192, that is, the most significant 192 bits of the SHA-256
hash as specified in [NIST800-208].
IANA maintains a registry whose entries correspond to the XMSSMT
Identifiers below (see [XMSS]). The fragment part of the URIs is
formed by replacing occurrences of underscore ("_") and slash ("/")
in the name appearing in the IANA registry with hyphen ("-").

The hash functions used in the XMSSMT signature schemes above are
SHA2 [RFC6234] or one of the two the SHAKE extensible output function
[FIPS202] as indicated by the second token of the URI extension
(SHAKE means SHAKE128). The tree height for XMSSMT is 20, 40, or 60
as indicated by the third token of the URI extension. The number of
layers is indicated by a fourth token. The SHA2, SHAKE, or SHAKE256
output size is 192, 256, or 512 bits as indicated by the final token
of the URI extension. SHA2 with 192 bits of output means
SHA2-256/192, that is, the most significant 192 bits of the SHA-256
hash as specified in [NIST800-208].
An example of an XMSS SignatureAlgorithm element is:
<SignatureAlgorithm
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#xmss-sha2-10-192"
/>
2.3. SignatureMethod Public Key Signature Algorithms
These algorithms are distinguished from those in Section 2.2 in that
they use public key methods. That is to say, the signing key is
different from and not feasibly derivable from the verification key.
2.3.1. RSA-MD5
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-md5
This implies the PKCS #1 v1.5 padding algorithm described in
[RFC8017]. An example of use is:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-md5" />
The SignatureValue content for an RSA-MD5 signature is the base64
[RFC4648] encoding of the octet string computed as per Section 8.2.1
of [RFC8017], signature generation for the RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5
signature scheme. As specified in the EMSA-PKCS1-V1_5-ENCODE
function in Section 9.2 of [RFC8017], the value input to the
signature function MUST contain a prepended algorithm object
identifier for the hash function, but the availability of an ASN.1
parser and recognition of OIDs is not required of a signature
verifier. The PKCS #1 v1.5 representation appears as:
CRYPT (PAD (ASN.1 (OID, DIGEST (data))))
The padded ASN.1 will be of the following form:
01 | FF* | 00 | prefix | hash
The vertical bar ("|") represents concatenation. "01", "FF", and "00"
are fixed octets of the corresponding hexadecimal value, and the
asterisk ("*") after "FF" indicates repetition. "hash" is the MD5
digest of the data. "prefix" is the ASN.1 BER MD5 algorithm
designator prefix required in PKCS #1 [RFC8017], that is,
hex 30 20 30 0c 06 08 2a 86 48 86 f7 0d 02 05 05 00 04 10
This prefix is included to make it easier to use standard
cryptographic libraries. The FF octet MUST be repeated enough times
that the value of the quantity being CRYPTed is exactly one octet
shorter than the RSA modulus.
See [RFC6151] for MD5 security considerations.
2.3.2. RSA-SHA256
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha256
This implies the PKCS #1 v1.5 padding algorithm [RFC8017] as
described in Section 2.3.1 but with the ASN.1 BER SHA-256 algorithm
designator prefix. An example of use is:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha256" />
2.3.3. RSA-SHA384
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha384
This implies the PKCS #1 v1.5 padding algorithm [RFC8017] as
described in Section 2.3.1 but with the ASN.1 BER SHA-384 algorithm
designator prefix. An example of use is:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha384" />
Because it takes about the same effort to calculate a SHA-384 message
digest as it does a SHA-512 message digest, it is suggested that RSA-
SHA512 be used in preference to RSA-SHA384 where possible.
2.3.4. RSA-SHA512
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha512
This implies the PKCS #1 v1.5 padding algorithm [RFC8017] as
described in Section 2.3.1 but with the ASN.1 BER SHA-512 algorithm
designator prefix. An example of use is:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha512" />
2.3.5. RSA-RIPEMD160
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-ripemd160
This implies the PKCS #1 v1.5 padding algorithm [RFC8017] as
described in Section 2.3.1 but with the ASN.1 BER RIPEMD160 algorithm
designator prefix. An example of use is:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-ripemd160"
/>
2.3.6. ECDSA-SHA*, ECDSA-RIPEMD160, ECDSA-Whirlpool

http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#ecdsa-whirlpool
The Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) [FIPS186-4] is
the elliptic curve analogue of the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA)
signature method, i.e., the Digital Signature Standard (DSS). It
takes no explicit parameters. For some detailed specifications of
how to use it with SHA hash functions and XML Digital Signature,
please see [X9.62] and [RFC4050]. The #sha3-*, #ecdsa-ripemd160, and
#ecdsa-whirlpool fragments identify signature methods processed in
the same way as specified by the #ecdsa-sha1 fragment, with the
exception that a SHA3 function (see Section 2.1.5), RIPEMD160, or
Whirlpool (see Section 2.1.4) is used instead of SHA-1.
The output of the ECDSA algorithm consists of a pair of integers
usually referred to as the pair (r, s). The signature value consists
of the base64 encoding of the concatenation of two octet streams that
respectively result from the octet encoding of the values r and s in
that order. Conversion from integer to octet stream must be done
according to the I2OSP operation defined in the [RFC8017]
specification with the l parameter equal to the size of the base
point order of the curve in octets (e.g., 32 for the P-256 curve and
66 for the P-521 curve [FIPS186-4]).
For an introduction to elliptic curve cryptographic algorithms, see
[RFC6090] and note the errata (Errata IDs 2773-2777).
2.3.7. ESIGN-SHA*

http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#esign-sha384
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#esign-sha512
The ESIGN algorithm specified in [IEEEP1363a] is a signature scheme
based on the integer factorization problem.
An example of use is:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#esign-sha1"
/>
2.3.8. RSA-Whirlpool
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#rsa-whirlpool
As in the definition of the RSA-SHA1 algorithm in [XMLDSIG11], the
designator "RSA" means the RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 algorithm as defined in
[RFC8017]. When identified through the #rsa-whirlpool fragment
identifier, Whirlpool is used as the hash algorithm instead. Use of
the ASN.1 BER Whirlpool algorithm designator is implied. That
designator is:
hex 30 4e 30 0a 06 06 28 cf 06 03 00 37 05 00 04 40
as an explicit octet sequence. This corresponds to OID
1.0.10118.3.0.55 defined in [ISO-10118-3].
An example of use is:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#rsa-whirlpool"
/>
2.3.9. RSASSA-PSS with Parameters
Identifiers:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#rsa-pss
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#MGF1
These identifiers use the PKCS #1 EMSA-PSS encoding algorithm
[RFC8017]. The RSASSA-PSS algorithm takes the digest method (hash
function), a mask generation function, the salt length in octets
(SaltLength), and the trailer field as explicit parameters.
Algorithm identifiers for hash functions specified in XML encryption
[XMLENC11], [XMLDSIG11], and in Section 2.1 are considered to be
valid algorithm identifiers for hash functions. According to
[RFC8017], the default value for the digest function is SHA-1, but
due to the discovered weakness of SHA-1 [RFC6194], it is recommended
that SHA-256 or a stronger hash function be used. Notwithstanding
[RFC8017], SHA-256 is the default to be used with these
SignatureMethod identifiers if no hash function has been specified.
The default salt length for these SignatureMethod identifiers, if the
SaltLength is not specified, SHALL be the number of octets in the
hash value of the digest method as recommended in [RFC4055]. In a
parameterized RSASSA-PSS signature, the ds:DigestMethod and the
SaltLength parameters usually appear. If they do not, the defaults
make this equivalent to <http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-
more#sha256-rsa-MGF1> (see Section 2.3.10). The TrailerField
defaults to 1 (0xBC) when omitted.

2.3.10. RSASSA-PSS without Parameters
[RFC8017] currently specifies only one mask generation function MGF1
based on a hash function. Although [RFC8017] allows for
parameterization, the default is to use the same hash function as the
digest method function. Only this default approach is supported by
this section; therefore, the definition of a mask generation function
type is not needed yet. The same applies to the trailer field.
There is only one value (0xBC) specified in [RFC8017]. Hence, this
default parameter must be used for signature generation. The default
salt length is the length of the hash function.

2.3.11. RSA-SHA224
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha224
This implies the PKCS #1 v1.5 padding algorithm [RFC8017] as
described in Section 2.3.1 but with the ASN.1 BER SHA-224 algorithm
designator prefix. An example of use is:
<SignatureMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha224" />
Because it takes about the same effort to calculate a SHA-224 message
digest as it does a SHA-256 message digest, it is suggested that RSA-
SHA256 be used in preference to RSA-SHA224 where possible.
See also Appendix B concerning an erroneous version of this URI that
appeared in [RFC6931].
2.3.12. Edwards-Curve
The Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) is a variant of
Schnorr's signature system with Edwards curves. A specification is
provided and some advantages listed in [RFC8032]. The general EdDSA
takes 11 parameters that must be carefully chosen for secure and
efficient operation. Identifiers for two variants, Ed25519 and
Ed448, are given below.
Ed25519 uses 32-octet public keys and produces 64-octet signatures.
It provides about 128 bits of security and uses SHA-512 [RFC6234]
internally as part of signature generation.
Ed448 uses 57-octet public keys and produces 114-octet signatures.
It provides about 224 bits of security and uses "SHAKE256" [FIPS202]
internally as part of signature generation. (SHAKE256 is specified
by NIST as an "Extensible Output Function" and not specified or
approved by NIST as a secure hash function.)
For further information on the variants of EdDSA identified below,
see [RFC8032].

2.4. Minimal Canonicalization
Thus far, two independent interoperable implementations of Minimal
Canonicalization have not been announced. Therefore, when "XML-
Signature Syntax and Processing" was advanced along the Standards
Track from [RFC3075] to [RFC3275], Minimal Canonicalization was
dropped. However, there was still interest. For its definition, see
Section 6.5.1 of [RFC3075].
For reference, its identifier remains:
http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#minimal
2.5. Transform Algorithms
The XPointer Transform algorithm syntax is described below. All
CanonicalizationMethod algorithms can also be used as Transform
algorithms.
2.5.1. XPointer
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#xptr
This transform algorithm takes an [XPointer] as an explicit
parameter. An example of use is:
<Transform
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more/xptr">
<XPointer
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more/xptr">
xpointer(id("foo")) xmlns(bar=http://foobar.example)
xpointer(//bar:Zab[@Id="foo"])
</XPointer>
</Transform>
Schema Definition:
<element name="XPointer" type="string"/>
DTD:
<!ELEMENT XPointer (#PCDATA) >
Input to this transform is an octet stream (which is then parsed into
XML).
Output from this transform is a node set; the results of the XPointer
are processed as defined in the XMLDSIG specification [RFC3275] for a
same-document XPointer.
2.6. EncryptionMethod Algorithms
This subsection gives identifiers and information for several
EncryptionMethod Algorithms.
2.6.1. ARCFOUR Encryption Algorithm
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#arcfour
ARCFOUR is a fast, simple stream encryption algorithm that is
compatible with RSA Security's RC4 algorithm [RC4] (Rivest Cipher 4);
however, RC4 has been found to have a number of weaknesses and its
use is prohibited in several IETF protocols, for example TLS
[RFC7465]. An example EncryptionMethod element using ARCFOUR is:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#arcfour">
<KeySize>40</KeySize>
</EncryptionMethod>
ARCFOUR makes use of the generic KeySize parameter specified and
defined in [XMLENC11].
2.6.2. Camellia Block Encryption
Identifiers:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#camellia128-cbc
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#camellia192-cbc
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#camellia256-cbc
Camellia is a block cipher with the same interface as the AES
[CAMELLIA] [RFC3713]; it has a 128-bit block size and 128-, 192-, and
256-bit key sizes. In XML Encryption, Camellia is used in the same
way as the AES: It is used in the Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode
with a 128-bit initialization vector (IV). The resulting cipher text
is prefixed by the IV. If included in XML output, it is then base64
encoded. An example Camellia EncryptionMethod is as follows:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm=
"http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#camellia128-cbc"
/>
2.6.3. Camellia Key Wrap
Identifiers:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#kw-camellia128
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#kw-camellia192
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#kw-camellia256
Camellia [CAMELLIA] [RFC3713] key wrap is identical to the AES key
wrap algorithm [RFC3394] specified in the XML Encryption standard
with "AES" replaced by "Camellia". As with AES key wrap, the check
value is 0xA6A6A6A6A6A6A6A6.
The algorithm is the same regardless of the size of the Camellia key
used in wrapping, called the "key encrypting key" or "KEK". If
Camellia is supported, it is particularly suggested that wrapping
128-bit keys with a 128-bit KEK and wrapping 256-bit keys with a
256-bit KEK be supported.
An example of use is:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm=
"http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#kw-camellia128"
/>
2.6.4. PSEC-KEM, RSAES-KEM, and ECIES-KEM
Identifiers:
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#psec-kem
http://www.w3.org/2010/xmlsec-ghc#rsaes-kem
http://www.w3.org/2010/xmlsec-ghc#ecies-kem
These algorithms, specified in [ISO-18033-2], are key encapsulation
mechanisms using elliptic curve or RSA encryption. RSAEA-KEM and
ECIES-KEM are also specified in [GENERIC].
An example of use of PSEC-KEM is:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#psec-kem">
<ECParameters>
<Version>version</Version>
<FieldID>id</FieldID>
<Curve>curve</Curve>
<Base>base</Base>
<Order>order</Order>
<Cofactor>cofactor</Cofactor>
</ECParameters>
</EncryptionMethod>
See [ISO-18033-2] for information on the parameters above.
2.6.5. SEED Block Encryption
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#seed128-cbc
SEED [RFC4269] is a block cipher with a 128-bit block size and
128-bit key size. In XML Encryption, SEED can be used in the Cipher
Block Chaining (CBC) mode with a 128-bit initialization vector (IV).
The resulting cipher text is prefixed by the IV. If included in XML
output, it is then base64 encoded.
An example SEED EncryptionMethod is as follows:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#seed128-cbc" />
2.6.6. SEED Key Wrap
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#kw-seed128
Key wrapping with SEED is identical to Section 2.2.1 of [RFC3394]
with "AES" replaced by "SEED". The algorithm is specified in
[RFC4010]. The implementation of SEED is optional. The default
initial value is 0xA6A6A6A6A6A6A6A6.
An example of use is:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm=
"http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more#kw-seed128"
/>
2.6.7. ChaCha20
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#chacha20
ChaCha20 [RFC8439], a stream cipher, is a variant of Salsa20
[ChaCha]. It is considerably faster than AES in software-only
implementations. In addition to a 256-bit key and the plain text to
be encrypted, ChaCha20 takes a 96-bit Nonce and an initial 32-bit
Counter. The Nonce and Counter are represented as hex in nested
elements as shown below.
An example of use is:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm=
"http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#chacha20">
<Nonce>0123456789abcdef01234567</Nonce>
<Counter>fedcba09</Counter>
</EncryptionMethod>
2.6.8. ChaCha20+Poly1305
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#chacha20poly1305
ChaCha20+Poly1305 is an Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data
(AEAD) algorithm. In addition to a 256-bit key and plain text to be
encrypted and authenticated, ChaCha20+Poly1305 takes a 96-bit Nonce
and variable-length Additional Authenticated Data (AAD). The Nonce
is represented as a child element of the EncryptionMethod element
with a hex value. The AAD is a string, which may be null. The AAD
element may be absent, in which case the AAD is null. The
CipherData, either present in the CipherValue or by reference, is the
concatenation of the encrypted ChaCha20 output and the Poly1305
128-bit tag.
An example of use is:
<EncryptionMethod
Algorithm=
"http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#chacha20poly1305">
<Nonce>0123456789abcdef01234567</Nonce>
<AAD>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.</AAD>
</EncryptionMethod>
2.7. Key AgreementMethod Algorithm
This subsection gives identifiers and information for an additional
key AgreementMethod Algorithm [XMLENC11].
2.7.1. X25519 and X448 Key Agreement
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#x25519
http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#x448
The X25519 and X448 key agreement algorithms are specified in
[RFC7748].
2.8. KeyDerivationMethod Algorithm
This subsection gives identifiers and information for an additional
KeyDerivationMethod Algorithm [XMLENC11].
2.8.1. HKDF Key Derivation
This section covers the HMAC-based Extract-and-Expand Key Derivation
Function (HKDF [RFC5869]).
Identifier:
http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#hkdf
HKDF takes as inputs a hash function, an optional non-secret "salt",
initial keying material (IKM), optional context and application-
specific "info", and the required output keying size. Note that
these strictly determine the output so, for example, invoking HKDF at
different times but with the same salt, info, initial keying
material, and output key size will produce identical output keying
material.
The inputs can be supplied to HKDF as follows:
hash function: The algorithm attribute of a child DigestMethod
element.
salt: The content of a Salt child element of AgreementMethod in hex.
If not provided, a string of zero octets as long as the hash
function output is used as specified in [RFC5869].
IKM: The content of an OriginatorKeyInfo child element of
AgreementMethod in hex. May be absent in some applications
where this is known through some other method.
info: The content of the KA-Nonce child element of AgreementMethod
in hex.
size: The content of a KeySize child element of AgreementMethod as a
decimal number.
Here is the test case from Appendix A.1 of [RFC5869] as an example:
<AgreementMethod
algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#hkdf">
<DigestMethod
algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-sha256"/>
<Salt>000102030405060708090a0b0c</Salt>
<OriginatorKeyInfo>0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b0b
</OriginatorKeyInfo>
<KA-Nonce>f0f1f2f3f4f5f6f7f8f9</KA-Nonce>
<KeySize>42</KeySize>
</AgreementMethod>
3. KeyInfo
In Section 3.1, a KeyInfo element child is specified, while in
Section 3.2, additional KeyInfo Type values for use in
RetrievalMethod are specified.
3.1. PKCS #7 Bag of Certificates and CRLs
A PKCS #7 [RFC2315] "signedData" can also be used as a bag of
certificates and/or certificate revocation lists (CRLs). The
PKCS7signedData element is defined to accommodate such structures
within KeyInfo. The binary PKCS #7 structure is base64 [RFC4648]
encoded. Any signer information present is ignored. The following
is an example [RFC3092], eliding the base64 data:
<foo:PKCS7signedData
xmlns:foo="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more">
...
</foo:PKCS7signedData>
3.2. Additional RetrievalMethod Type Values
The Type attribute of RetrievalMethod is an optional identifier for
the type of data to be retrieved. The result of dereferencing a
RetrievalMethod reference for all KeyInfo types with an XML structure
is an XML element or document with that element as the root. The
various "raw" key information types return a binary value. Thus,
they require a Type attribute because they are not unambiguously
parsable.

4. Indexes
The following subsections provide an index by URI and by fragment
identifier (the portion of the URI after "#") of the algorithm and
KeyInfo URIs defined in this document and in the standards plus the
one KeyInfo child element name defined in this document. The "Sec/
Doc" column has the section of this document or, if not specified in
this document, the standards document where the item is specified.
See also [XMLSECXREF].
4.1. Index by Fragment Index
The initial "http://www.w3.org/" part of the URI is not included
below. The first six entries have a null fragment identifier or no
fragment identifier. "{Bad}" indicates a bad value that was
accidentally included in [RFC6931]. Implementations SHOULD only
generate the correct URI but SHOULD understand both the correct and
erroneous URI. See also Appendix B.

---- -------- ------
URI Sec/Doc Type
The initial "http://www.w3.org/" part of the URI is not included
above. "{Bad}" indicates a Bad value that was accidentally included
in [RFC6931]. Implementations SHOULD only generate the correct URI
but SHOULD understand both the correct and erroneous URI. See also
Appendix B.
5. Allocation Considerations
W3C and IANA allocation considerations are given below.
5.1. W3C Allocation Considerations
As it is easy for people to construct their own unique URIs [RFC3986]
and, if appropriate, to obtain a URI from the W3C, additional URI
specification under the following XMLSEC URI prefixes is prohibited
as shown:
+=========================================+========================+
| URI | Status |
+=========================================+========================+
| http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig# | Frozen by W3C. |
+-----------------------------------------+------------------------+
| http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more# | Frozen with RFC 4051. |
+-----------------------------------------+------------------------+
| http://www.w3.org/2007/05/xmldsig-more# | Frozen with [RFC6931]. |
+-----------------------------------------+------------------------+
Table 2
The W3C has assigned <http://www.w3.org/2021/04/xmldsig-more#> for
additional new URIs specified in this document.
There are also occurrences in this document of
<http://www.w3.org/2010/xmlsec-ghc#> due to the inclusion of some
algorithms from [GENERIC] for convenience.
An "xmldsig-more" URI does not imply any official W3C or IETF status
for these algorithms or identifiers nor does it imply that they are
only useful in digital signatures. Currently, dereferencing such
URIs may or may not produce a temporary placeholder document.
Permission to use these URI prefixes has been given by the W3C.
5.2. IANA Considerations
IANA has established a registry entitled "XML Security URIs". The
contents have been updated to correspond to Section 4.2 of this
document with each section number in the "Sec/Doc" column augmented
with a reference to this RFC (for example, "2.6.4" means "[RFC9231],
Section 2.6.4"). All references to [RFC6931] in that registry have
been updated to RFC 9231.
New entries, including new Types, will be added based on
Specification Required [RFC8126]. Criteria for the designated expert
for inclusion are (1) documentation sufficient for interoperability
of the algorithm or data type and the XML syntax for its
representation and use and (2) sufficient importance as normally
indicated by inclusion in (2a) an approved W3C Note, Proposed
Recommendation, or Recommendation, or (2b) an approved RFC.
Typically, the registry will reference a W3C or IETF document
specifying such XML syntax; that document will either contain a more
detailed description of the algorithm or data type or reference
another document with a more detailed description.
6. Security Considerations
This RFC is concerned with documenting the URIs that designate
algorithms and some data types used in connection with XML security.
The security considerations vary widely with the particular
algorithms, and the general security considerations for XML security
are outside of the scope of this document but appear in [XMLDSIG11],
[XMLENC11], [CANON10], [CANON11], and [GENERIC].
[RFC6151] should be consulted before considering the use of MD5 as a
DigestMethod or the use of HMAC-MD5 or RSA-MD5 as a SignatureMethod.
See [RFC6194] for SHA-1 security considerations.
Additional security considerations are given in connection with the
description of some algorithms in the body of this document.
Implementers should be aware that cryptographic algorithms become
weaker with time. As new cryptoanalysis techniques are developed and
computing performance improves, the work factor to break a particular
cryptographic algorithm will decrease. Therefore, cryptographic
implementations should be modular, allowing new algorithms to be
readily inserted. That is, implementers should be prepared for the
set of mandatory-to-implement algorithms for any particular use to
change over time. This is sometimes referred to as "algorithm
agility" [RFC7696].

Appendix A. Changes from RFC 6931
The following changes have been made in [RFC6931] to produce this
document.
* Deleted Appendix on Changes from RFC 4051, since they were already
included in [RFC6931], and remove reference to RFC 4051 and to the
one Errata against RFC 4051.
* Fixed three errata as follows: [Err3597], [Err3965], and
[Err4004]. In cases where [RFC6931] had an erroneous URI, it is
still included in the indices and it is stated that
implementations SHOULD only generate the correct URI but SHOULD
understand both the correct and erroneous URI.
* Added the following algorithms:
+=========+==========================+
| Section | Algorithm(s) |
+=========+==========================+
| 2.2.4 | Poly1305 |
+---------+--------------------------+
| 2.2.5 | SipHash-2-4 |
+---------+--------------------------+
| 2.2.6 | XMSS and XMSSMT |
+---------+--------------------------+
| 2.3.6 | ECDSA with SHA3 |
+---------+--------------------------+
| 2.3.12 | Edwards-Curve Signatures |
+---------+--------------------------+
| 2.6.7 | ChaCha20 |
+---------+--------------------------+
| 2.6.8 | ChaCha20+Poly1305 |
+---------+--------------------------+
| 2.7.1 | X25519 |
+---------+--------------------------+
| 2.8.1 | HKDF |
+---------+--------------------------+
Table 3
* Listed ECIES-KEM and RSAES-KEM in Section 2.6.4 so they are easier
to find even though the URI for them is specified in [GENERIC].
* Updated references for [GENERIC] and FIPS 186, added appropriate
references.
* Added some XML examples.
* Fixed minor typos and added editorial changes.
* A number of acronyms were added to Section 1.2.
Appendix B. Bad URIs
[RFC6931] included two bad URIs as shown below. "{Bad}" in the
indexes (Sections 4.1 and 4.2) indicates such a bad value.
Implementations SHOULD only generate the correct URI but SHOULD
understand both the correct and erroneous URI.
2006/12/xmlc12n11#
Appears in the indices (Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of [RFC6931]) when it
should be "2006/12/xmlc14n11#" (i.e., the "12" inside "xmlc12n11"
should have been "14"). This is [Err3965] and is corrected in
this document.
2007/05/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha224
Appears in the indices (Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of [RFC6931]) when it
should be "2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha224". This is [Err4004]
and is corrected in this document.
