A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Common Authentication Technology Next Generation Working Group of the IETF. Title : PKINIT Algorithm Agility Authors : Love Hornquist Astrand Larry Zhu Margaret Wasserman William J. Mills Filename : draft-ietf-kitten-pkinit-alg-agility-00.txt Pages : 18 Date : 2015-04-02 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.
