DNSOP P.C. Homburg Internet-Draft 9 January 2023 Intended status: Standards Track Expires: 13 July 2023 Control Options For DNS Client Proxies draft-homburg-dnsop-codcp-00 Abstract The introduction of many new transport protocols for DNS in recent years (DoT, DoH, DoQ) significantly increases the complexity of DNS stub resolvers that want to support these protocols. A practical way forward is to have a DNS client proxy in the host operating system. This allows applications to communicate using Do53 and still get the privacy benefit from using more secure protocols over the internet. However, such a setup leaves the application with no control over which transport the proxy uses. This document introduces EDNS(0) options that allow a stub resolver to request certain transport and allow the proxy to report capabilities and actual transports that are available.

Introduction The introduction of many new transport protocols for DNS in recent years (DoT, DoH, DoQ) significantly increases the complexity of DNS stub resolvers that want to support these protocols. In addition, for short-lived applications, the overhead of setting a DoH connection is quite high if the application only needs to send a few DNS requests. A practical way forward is to have a DNS client proxy in the host operating system. A local proxy may provide some benefit to short- lived applications by caching results. In particular if the system uses a so called 'public DNS resolver'. In general we assume that the cache is tagged according to the source of a reply and the transport it is received on. This allows applications to communicate using Do53 and still get the privacy benefits from using more secure protocols over the internet. However, such a setup leaves the application with no control over which transport the proxy uses. This document introduces EDNS(0) options that allow a stub resolver to request certain transports and allow the proxy to report capabilities and actual transports that are available. With respect to DNSSEC, we assume that an application that needs DNSSEC validation, for example, for DANE validation or SSHFP, will perform the DNSSEC validation within the application itself and does not trust the proxy. The proxy can of course do DNSSEC validation as well. Important however, is that an untrusted proxy cannot provide an application with a traditional (unsigned) trust anchor. For the transport configuration we expect three levels of details. The first is a choice between requiring authenticated encryption, also allowing unauthenticated encryption or doing opportunistic encryption on an best effort basis. The second level is where the Homburg Expires 13 July 2023 [Page 3] Internet-Draft codcp January 2023 application also specifies the names and/or IP addresses of upstream resolvers. The third level is where the application also specifies which transports (Do53, DoT, DoH, DoQ) are allowed to be used. A final transport parameter is the outgoing interface that is to be used. For authentication we can have a mix of PKIX and DANE. Options are one of the two and not the other, both or one of the two. In a response, the proxy reports the interface, resolver, and transport used. As described in Section 3 of [RFC5625], some simple DNS proxies may just forward DNS packets without handling of EDNS(0) options. So what could happen is that an application sends a privacy sensitive request to local proxy, expecting the proxy upstream connection to be encrypted. However, a simple proxy may just forward the request unencrypted to another proxy, for example, one in a CPE that does implement the protocol described in this document. So what could happen is that the request travels unencrypted over a local lan, or if proxies deeper in the network support this protocol, even further without the application noticing that something is wrong. To handle this case, we introduce an option where the proxy reports whether the connection between the stub resolver and the proxy is host-local, link-local, or site-local or global. In the ideal case, the host operating system provides applications with a secure way to access a DNSSEC trust anchor that is maintained according to [RFC5011]. However in situations where this is not the case, an application can fall back to [RFC7958]. However, for short lived processes, there is considerable overhead in issuing two HTTP(S) requests to data.iana.org to obtain the trust anchor XML file and the signature over the trust anchor. For this reason, it makes sense to let the proxy cache this information. 3. Key Words 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. Homburg Expires 13 July 2023 [Page 4] Internet-Draft codcp January 2023 4. Description This document introduces three new EDNS(0) options, and one new response code. This first option, called PROXY CONTROL Option, specifies which transports a proxy should use to connect to a recursive resolver. The second option, called PROXY SCOPE Option, reports the IP address scope of the connection between the application's stub resolver and the proxy. Finally, the TRUST ANCHOR Option, provides the application with a DNSSEC trust anchor signed by IANA. The BADPROXYPOLICY error is returned the proxy cannot meet the requirements in a PROXY CONTROL Option or the option is malformed. 5.

When a proxy cannot meet the requirements in a PROXY CONTROL Option or the option is malformed, it returns this error. If the proxy returns a BADPROXYPOLICY error, the proxy MAY include a PROXY CONTROL Option that lists what the proxy can do. For example, if authenticated encryption is not possible, but unauthenticated is, then the proxy may include an option show that. 5.1. Security Constraints Sub-option +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ 0: | SUB-OPTION-CODE | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ 2: | SUB-OPTION-LENGTH | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ 4: | U |UA | A | P | D | Z | +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ where SUB-OPTION-CODE To be decided SUB-OPTION-LENGTH 2 (this sub-option defines a 16-bit flags field U force the use of unencrypted communication (Do53) UA require encryption, authentication is allowed but not required A require authenticated encryption P authenticate using a PKIX certificate Homburg Expires 13 July 2023 [Page 6] Internet-Draft codcp January 2023 D authenticate using DANE Z reserved, MUST be zero when sending, MUST be ignored when received This sub-option gives the security contraints of the DNS transports that are used by the client proxy. The U, UA, and A flags are mutually exclusive. If more than one flag is set, the proxy SHOULD return a BADPROXYPOLICY error. There are four possibilities: U = 0, UA = 0, A = 0 An effort is made to reach authenticated encryption, if that fails, unauthenticated encryption is tried. If that also fails, the proxy resorts to an unencrypted transport. It is an error if either or both of the P or D flags is set and the proxy SHOULD return a BADPROXYPOLICY error if that is the case. U = 1, UA = 0, A = 0 The proxy tries only unencrypted transports. It is an error if either or both of the P or D flags is set and the proxy SHOULD return a BADPROXYPOLICY error if that is the case. U = 0, UA = 1, A = 0 An effort is made to reach authenticated encryption, if that fails, unauthenticated encryption is tried. It is an error if either or both of the P or D flags is set and the proxy SHOULD return a BADPROXYPOLICY error if that is the case. U = 0, UA = 0, A = 1 The proxy only tries authenticated encryption. The P and D flags can be used to control which authentication mechanism has to be used. The P and D flags allow the application to require a specific authentication mechanism (PKIX or DANE). The meaning of the flags is the following: P = 0, D = 0 At least one of the two mechanisms has to validate for authenticated encryption to succeed. P = 1, D = 0 PKIX validation has to succeed, the status of DANE validation is ignored. P = 0, D = 1 A DANE record has to be present and be DNSSEC valid. A Homburg Expires 13 July 2023 [Page 7] Internet-Draft codcp January 2023 DANE record has a Certificate Usage Field. For some values of this field (the values zero and one), DANE requires PKIX validation. In those cases, PKIX validation is also required according to the DANE specifications. For the values two and three, DANE does not require PKIX and because the P flag is zero, the result of PKIX validation has to be ignored. P = 1, D = 1 Both PKIX and DANE are required together. For PKIX, this means that PKIX validation has to succeed. For DANE it means that a DANE record has to be present and be DNSSEC valid. Validation using the DANE record has to succeed. Note that these two flags can only be used in combination with the A flag. The proxy SHOULD return a BADPROXYPOLICY error if either or both of the P or D flags is set and the A flag is clear. 5.2.

The value 0 indicates the highest priority and 254 the lowest. The value 255 is defined to mean that this protocol MUST NOT be used. Priorities are taken over all Proxy Control options in a DNS request. This allows the application to specify an explicit order (or the lack of order) among different upstream resolvers. Homburg Expires 13 July 2023 [Page 8] Internet-Draft codcp January 2023 For protocol 0 (the default list), all protocols that are explicitly listed in a Proxy Control option are excluded from the default list. In other words, when processing the default list, all explicitly listed protocols are excluded. If this sub option is not present in a Proxy Control option, then the proxy should assume protocol 0 at priority 128. 5.3.

Instead of defining new sub-options to store IPv4 and IPv6 address, this document re-uses the ipv4hints and ipv6hints. However the semantics are redefined to be that these option and not hints, be are the actual addresses that are to be used.

The domain name is encoded in uncompressed DNS wire format. If the option contains a domain name but no IP addresses (ipv4hints or ipv6hints) then the proxy is expected to resolve the name to addresses. If only addresses are specified then the proxy assumes that no name is known (though a PKIX certificate may include an address literal in the subjectAltName). If both a name and addresses are specified then the proxy will use the specified addresses to reach the upstream resolver and use the name for authentication. The the option contains neither a domain name nor any IP addresses then the application requests the resolvers known to the proxy. 5.5.

IPv6 link-local addresses are special in that they require a zone to be specified, either explicitly or implicitly. Typically for a link-local address that appears as a source or destination address, the zone is implicitly the zone of the link the packet travels on. For packets that travel between hosts, there is no goed way to explictly specify the zone of a link-local address because two different hosts do not agree on zone names. However, if the proxy is on the same host as the application, then the zone identifier for the link-local address can be specified in the Interface field. For this purpose an interface name can also be an interface index expressed as a decimal string. 6.

Protocol Specification 8.1. Client Processing A stub resolver that wishes to use the PROXY CONTROL Option includes the option in all outgoing DNS requests that require privacy. The option should be initialized according to the needs of the application. In addition the PROXY SCOPE Option can be added. In requests, the Scope field is set to undefined. If the stub resolver receives a reply without a PROXY CONTROL Option included in the reply, then stub resolver has to assume that traffic will have Do53 levels of privacy. Similarly, a lack of a PROXY SCOPE Option implies a global scope. If the stub resolver receives a BADPROXYPOLICY error then the proxy was unable to meet the requirements of the PROXY CONTROL Option. 8.1.1. Probing In cases where the stub resolver expects a local DNS proxy, or where the stub resolver has (a limited) fall back to more private transports, or when the security policy of the application is such that is better to fail than send queries over Do53, the stub resolver first sends a probing query to verify that the proxy supports the PROXY CONTROL and PROXY SCOPE Options. This request queries "resolver.arpa" for SOA records. The proxy MUST implement this as a Special Use Domain Name. The actual response is not important. The important part is that the proxy returns PROXY CONTROL and PROXY SCOPE Options as described in this document or sets the response code to BADPROXYPOLICY if it cannot meet specified policy. Homburg Expires 13 July 2023 [Page 13] Internet-Draft codcp January 2023 8.1.2. Trust Anchor In the ideal case, the host operating system provides applications with a secure way to access a DNSSEC trust anchor that is maintained according to [RFC5011]. However in situations where this is not the case, an application can fall back to [RFC7958]. However, for short lived processes, there is considerable overhead in issuing two HTTP(S) requests to data.iana.org to obtain the trust anchor XML file and the signature over the trust anchor. For this reason, it makes sense to let the proxy cache this information. If the local operating system does not provide a DNSSEC trust anchor, then the application can ask the proxy. The stub resolver adds the TRUST ANCHOR Option with ANCHORS-XML-LENGTH and ANCHORS-P7S-LENGTH set to zero. If the proxy returns both an ANCHORS-XML and an ANCHORS-P7S, then the application verifies the trust anchor using the trust anchor certificate (which needs to come with the application). 8.2. Server Processing Proxies are encouraged to cache options that appear in requests under the assumption that a stub resolver will send multiple requests. If a proxy caches DNS responses then the proxy MUST tag cached responses with the properties of the DNS transport. When responding to later requests, the proxy returns a cached entry only if the parameters of the DNS transport match what is specified in the request. When a proxy receives a new set of requirements, the proxy compiles a list of addresses to connect to and a list of transports to try per address. The proxy SHOULD prefer more private transports over less private ones. If the proxy cannot obtain a connection to a recursive resolver in a way that matches the provided policy, then the proxy sets the BADPROXYPOLICY response code in the reply. The proxy MUST implement "resolver.arpa" as a locally served zone. Proxies SHOULD respond to all queries with NODATA unless other behavior is specified in a different document. Homburg Expires 13 July 2023 [Page 14] Internet-Draft codcp January 2023 If the proxy successfully connects to a recursive resolver and receives a reply, or the query is for a special use domain name that is handled internally in the proxy, then the proxy add a PROXY CONTROL Options dat details the connection to the recursive resolver (i.e., the U, UA, or A flag depending on encryption and authentication, P and or D for authenticated connections, A53, AT, AH2, AH3, or AQ depending on the transport (or none of those for a future transport). Furthermore the proxy includes the address it connected to, the Domain Name if known, any Service Parameters and the outgoing interface name if known. If the proxy finds a PROXY SCOPE Option, then it calculates the scope from the source address. The proxy adds a PROXY SCOPE Option to a reply and sets the value of Scope to the actual scope of the source address of the request. If the request contains a TRUST ANCHOR Option, then the proxy tries to fetch the trust anchor XML and p7s files if it does not have them already. If fetching one or both fails then the proxy sets the corresponding length to zero. It is not clear how long the proxy can cache this information. [RFC7958] Does not describe how long these documents can be cache. A simple solution is to take the Expires header in the HTTP reply. The proxy adds a TRUST ANCHOR Option to the reply. 9. Connection Between Stub Resolver And Proxy Absent other configuration, a stub resolver that implements this standard SHOULD connect to the proxy using Do53 and as remote address either ::1 or 127.0.0.1. In particular, the stub resolver SHOULD avoid using name servers listed in files such as /etc/resolv.conf. The reason for this is to simplify the integration of local DNS proxies in existing environments. If the stub resolver ignores /etc/ resolv.conf then the proxy can use that information to connect to recursive resolvers. If no DNS server is responding to queries sent using Do53 to ::1 and 127.0.0.1, or if the response indicates that this standard is not supported, then the stub resolver MAY fall back to traditional configuration methods, such as /etc/resolv.conf. However, in that case the stub resolver MUST make sure that doing so does not violate the policy set by the application. Homburg Expires 13 July 2023 [Page 15] Internet-Draft codcp January 2023 10. Security Considerations A privacy sensitive application SHOULD first issue a SOA query for resolver.arpa to verify that the local proxy supports the options documented in the document. If the proxy does not support this document then the application can refrain from sending queries that reveal privacy sensitive names. By setting the interface name, an application can select an outging interface on the proxy. Proxies should make sure that a query receives from a process that is authorized to do so. By default, a proxy SHOULD allow only process on the same host to use this feature. If an unauthorized process includes an option with the interface name set, then the proxy SHOULD return the BADPROXYPOLICY error. 11.
