The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Algorithms for Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) Protection of Symmetric Key Package Content Types' (draft-turner-cms-symmetrickeypackage-algs-00.txt) as a Proposed Standard This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Tim Polk. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-turner-cms-symmetrickeypackage-algs/ Technical Summary This document describes the conventions for using several cryptographic algorithms with the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) to protect the symmetric key package content type (RFC 6031). Specifically, it includes conventions necessary to implement SignedData, EnvelopedData, EncryptedData, and AuthEnvelopedData. Working Group Summary As noted earlier, this draft is not the product of a WG, but it was forwarded to both the KEYPROV WG for review and comment. No comments were received. This can be attributed to the fact that it is almost identical to RFC 5959. The exceptions are that a) it's for the Symmetric Key Package Content Type as Asymmetric Key Package, and b) it adds ECC algs as a MAYs. Document Quality There are no known implementations of this document. Personnel Sean Turner <turners@ieca.com> is the document Shepherd. Tim Polk <tim.polk@nist.gov> is the responsible Area Director. RFC Editor Note #1) In section 3 please replace: OLD: When key agreement is used, a key wrap algorithm is also specified to wrap the content encryption key. NEW: When key agreement is used, the same key wrap algorithm MUST be used for both key and content encryption. #2) Please perform the following substitutions throughout the document: s/key encryption key/key-encryption key/ s/key encryption algorithm/key-encryption algorithm/ s/content encryption key/content-encryption key/ s/content encryption algorithm/content-encryption algorithm/ _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
