Title : PKINIT Algorithm Agility

Abstract:
This document updates PKINIT, as defined in RFC 4556, to remove
protocol structures tied to specific cryptographic algorithms. The
PKINIT key derivation function is made negotiable, the digest
algorithms for signing the pre-authentication data and the client's
X.509 certificates are made discoverable.
These changes provide preemptive protection against vulnerabilities
discovered in the future against any specific cryptographic
algorithm, and allow incremental deployment of newer algorithms.
