Introduction This document describes the conventions for using several cryptographic algorithms with the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) encrypted key package content type [RFC6032]. Specifically, it includes conventions necessary to implement the following CMS content types: EnvelopedData [RFC5652], EncryptedData [RFC5652], and AuthEnvelopedData [RFC5083]. This document does not define any new algorithms; instead, it refers to previously defined algorithms.

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]. 2. EnvelopedData EnvelopedData [RFC5652] supports a number of key management techniques. Implementations that claim conformance to this document MUST support the key transport mechanisms and SHOULD support the key agreement mechanisms as defined below. Other techniques MAY be supported. When key transport is used, RSA encryption [RFC3370] MUST be supported and RSA Encryption Scheme - Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding (RSAES-OAEP) [RFC3560] SHOULD be supported. When key agreement is used, Ephemeral-Static Diffie-Hellman (DH) [RFC3370] MUST be supported. Since the content type is used to carry a cryptographic key and its attributes, an algorithm that is traditionally used to encrypt one key with another is employed. Regardless of the key management technique choice, implementations MUST support AES-128 Key Wrap with Padding [RFC5649] as the content-encryption algorithm. Implementations SHOULD support AES-256 Key Wrap with Padding [RFC5649] as the content-encryption algorithm. When key agreement is used, a key wrap algorithm is also specified to wrap the content-encryption key. If the content-encryption algorithm is AES-128 Key Wrap with Padding, then the key wrap algorithm MUST be AES-128 Key Wrap with Padding [RFC5649]. If the content-encryption algorithm is AES-256 Key Wrap with Padding, then the key wrap algorithm MUST be AES-256 Key Wrap with Padding [RFC5649].

EncryptedData EncryptedData [RFC5652] requires that keys be managed by other means; therefore, the only algorithm specified is the content-encryption algorithm. Since the content type is used to carry a cryptographic key and its attributes, an algorithm that is traditionally used to encrypt one key with another is employed. Implementations MUST support AES-128 Key Wrap with Padding [RFC5649]. Implementations SHOULD support AES-256 Key Wrap with Padding [RFC5649].

4.

AuthEnvelopedData AuthEnvelopedData [RFC5083], like EnvelopedData, supports a number of key management techniques. The key management requirements for AuthEnvelopedData are the same as for EnvelopedData. The difference is the content-encryption algorithm. Implementations MUST support 128-bit AES-Galois/Counter Mode (AES-GCM) [RFC5084] and SHOULD support 256-bit AES-GCM [RFC5084]. Implementations MAY also support AES-Counter with CBC-MAC (AES-CCM) [RFC5084].

5.

Signed Data Implementations of SignedData [RFC5652] MUST support the signature scheme RSA [RFC3370] [RFC5754] and SHOULD support the signature schemes RSA Probabilistic Signature Scheme (RSASSA-PSS) [RFC4056] and Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) [RFC3370] [RFC5754]. Additionally, implementations MUST support in concert with these signature schemes the hash function SHA-256 [RFC5754] and it SHOULD support the hash function SHA-1 [RFC3370].

6.

Public Key Sizes The easiest way to implement SignedData, EnvelopedData, and AuthEnvelopedData is with public key certificates [RFC5280]. If an implementation supports RSA, RSAES-OAEP, DH, RSASSA-PSS, or DSA, then it MUST support key lengths from 1024 bits to 2048 bits, inclusive.

7.

Security Considerations The security considerations from [RFC3370], [RFC3560], [RFC4056], [RFC5083], [RFC5084], [RFC5649], [RFC5652], [RFC5754], and [RFC6032] apply. The choice of content-encryption algorithms for this document was based on [RFC5649]: "In the design of some high assurance cryptographic modules, it is desirable to segregate cryptographic keying material from other data. The use of a specific cryptographic mechanism solely for the protection of cryptographic keying material
