Internet Engineering Task Force D. Wessels Internet-Draft P. Barber Intended status: Standards Track Verisign Expires: April 18, 2021 M. Weinberg Amazon W. Kumari Google W. Hardaker USC/ISI October 15, 2020 Message Digest for DNS Zones draft-ietf-dnsop-dns-zone-digest-14 Abstract This document describes a protocol and new DNS Resource Record that provides a cryptographic message digest over DNS zone data at rest. The ZONEMD Resource Record conveys the digest data in the zone itself. When used in combination with DNSSEC, ZONEMD allows recipients to verify the zone contents for data integrity and origin authenticity. This provides assurance that received zone data matches published data, regardless of how the zone data has been transmitted and received. When used without DNSSEC, ZONEMD functions as a checksum, guarding only against unintentional changes. ZONEMD does not replace DNSSEC. Whereas DNSSEC protects individual RRSets (DNS data with fine granularity), ZONEMD protects a zone's data as a whole, whether consumed by authoritative name servers, recursive name servers, or any other applications. As specified herein, ZONEMD is impractical for large, dynamic zones due to the time and resources required for digest calculation. However, The ZONEMD record is extensible so that new digest schemes may be added in the future to support large, dynamic zones.

Introduction In the DNS, a zone is the collection of authoritative resource records (RRs) sharing a common origin ([RFC8499]). Zones are often stored as files in the so-called master file format [RFC1034]. Zones are generally distributed among name servers using the AXFR (zone transfer [RFC5936]), and IXFR (incremental zone transfer [RFC1995]) protocols. They can also be distributed outside of the DNS, with any file transfer protocol such as FTP, HTTP, and rsync, or even as email attachments. Currently, there is no standard way to compute a hash or message digest for a stand-alone zone. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 3] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 This document specifies an RR type that provides a cryptographic message digest of the data in a zone. It allows a receiver of the zone to verify the zone's integrity and authenticity when used in combination with DNSSEC. The digest RR is a part of the zone itself, allowing verification of the zone, no matter how it is transmitted. The digest uses the wire format of zone data in a canonical ordering. Thus, it is independent of presentation format, such as whitespace, capitalization, and comments. This specification is OPTIONAL to implement by both publishers and consumers of zone data. 1.1. Motivation The primary motivation for this protocol enhancement is the desire to verify the data integrity and origin authenticity of a stand-alone zone, regardless of how it is transmitted. A consumer of zone data should be able to verify that it is as-published by the zone operator. Note, however, that integrity and authenticity can only be assured when the zone is signed. DNSSEC provides three strong security guarantees relevant to this protocol: 1. whether or not to expect DNSSEC records in the zone, 2. whether or not to expect a ZONEMD record in a signed zone, and 3. whether or not the ZONEMD record has been altered since it was signed. A secondary motivation is to provide the equivalent of a checksum, allowing a zone recipient to check for unintended changes and operational errors, such as accidental truncation. 1.2. Alternative Approaches One approach to preventing data tampering and corruption is to secure the distribution channel. The DNS has a number of features that are already used for channel security. Perhaps the most widely used is DNS transaction signatures (TSIG [RFC2845]). TSIG uses shared secret keys and a message digest to protect individual query and response messages. It is generally used to authenticate and validate UPDATE [RFC2136], AXFR [RFC5936], and IXFR [RFC1995] messages. DNS Request and Transaction Signatures (SIG(0) [RFC2931]) is another protocol extension that authenticates individual DNS transactions. Whereas SIG records normally cover specific RR types, SIG(0) is used Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 4] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 to sign an entire DNS message. Unlike TSIG, SIG(0) uses public key cryptography rather than shared secrets. The Transport Layer Security protocol suite also provides channel security. The DPRIVE working group is in the process of specifying DNS Zone Transfer-over-TLS [I-D.ietf-dprive-xfr-over-tls]. One can also easily imagine the distribution of zones over HTTPS-enabled web servers, as well as DNS-over-HTTPS [RFC8484]. Unfortunately, the protections provided by these channel security techniques are (in practice) ephemeral and are not retained after the data transfer is complete. They ensure that the client receives the data from the expected server, and that the data sent by the server is not modified during transmission. However, they do not guarantee that the server transmits the data as originally published, and do not provide any methods to verify data that is read after transmission is complete. For example, a name server loading saved zone data upon restart cannot guarantee that the on-disk data has not been modified. Such modification could be the result of an accidental corruption of the file, or perhaps an incompletely saved file [disk-full-failure]. For these reasons, it is preferable to protect the integrity of the data itself. Why not simply rely on DNSSEC, which provides certain data security guarantees? For zones that are signed, a recipient could validate all of the signed RRSets. Additionally, denial-of-existence records prove that RRSets have not been added or removed. However, delegations (non-apex NS records) are not signed by DNSSEC, and neither are any glue records. ZONEMD protects the integrity of delegation, glue, and other records that are not otherwise covered by DNSSEC. Furthermore, zones that employ NSEC3 with opt-out [RFC5155] are susceptible to the removal or addition of names between the signed nodes. Whereas DNSSEC primarily protects consumers of DNS response messages, this protocol protects consumers of zones. There are existing tools and protocols that provide data security, such as OpenPGP [RFC4880] and S/MIME [RFC5751]. In fact, the internic.net site publishes PGP signatures alongside the root zone and other files available there. However, this is a detached signature with no strong association to the corresponding zone file other than its timestamp. Non-detached signatures are, of course, possible, but these necessarily change the format of the file being distributed; a zone signed with OpenPGP or S/MIME no longer looks like a DNS zone and could not directly be loaded into a name server. Once loaded the signature data is lost, so it cannot be further propagated. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 5] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 It seems the desire for data security in DNS zones was envisioned as far back as 1997. [RFC2065] is an obsoleted specification of the first generation DNSSEC Security Extensions. It describes a zone transfer signature, identified as the AXFR SIG, which is similar to the technique proposed by this document. That is, it proposes ordering all (signed) RRSets in a zone, hashing their contents, and then signing the zone hash. The AXFR SIG is described only for use during zone transfers. It did not postulate the need to validate zone data distributed outside of the DNS. Furthermore, its successor, [RFC2535], omits the AXFR SIG, while at the same time introducing an IXFR SIG. 1.3. Design Overview This document specifies a new Resource Record type to convey a message digest of the content of a zone. The digest is calculated at the time of zone publication. If the zone is signed with DNSSEC, any modifications of the digest can be detected. The procedures for digest calculation and DNSSEC signing are similar. Both require data to be processed in a well-defined order and format. It may be possible to perform DNSSEC signing and digest calculation in parallel. The zone digest is designed to be used on zones that have infrequent updates. As specified herein, the digest is re-calculated over the entire zone content each time the zone is updated. This specification does not provide an efficient mechanism for updating the digest on incremental updates of zone data. It is, however, extensible so that future schemes may be defined to support efficient incremental digest updates. It is expected that verification of a zone digest will be implemented in name server software. That is, a name server can verify the zone data it was given and refuse to serve a zone which fails verification. For signed zones, the name server needs a trust anchor to perform DNSSEC validation. For signed non-root zones, the name server may need to send queries to validate a chain of trust. Digest verification could also be performed externally. 1.4. Use Cases 1.4.1. Root Zone The root zone [InterNIC] is one of the most widely distributed DNS zone on the Internet, served by more than 1000 separate instances [RootServers] at the time of this writing. Additionally, many organizations configure their own name servers to serve the root zone locally. Reasons for doing so include privacy and reduced access Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 6] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 time. [RFC8806] describes one way to do this. As the root zone spreads beyond its traditional deployment boundaries, the verification of the completeness of the zone contents becomes more important. 1.4.2. Providers, Secondaries, and Anycast Since its very early days, the developers of the DNS recognized the importance of secondary name servers and service diversity. However, modern DNS service has complex provisioning which includes multiple third-party providers ([RFC8901]) and hundreds of anycast instances ([RFC3258]). Instead of a simple primary-to-secondary zone distribution system, today it is possible to have multiple levels, multiple parties, and multiple protocols involved in the distribution of zone data. This complexity introduces new places for problems to arise. The zone digest protects the integrity of data that flows through such systems. 1.4.3. Response Policy Zones A Response Policy Zone (RPZ) is "a mechanism to introduce a customized policy in Domain Name System servers, so that recursive resolvers return possibly modified results" [RPZ]. The policy information is carried inside specially constructed DNS zones. A number of companies provide RPZ feeds, which are consumed by name server and firewall products. While RPZ zones can be signed with DNSSEC, the data is not queried directly, and would not be subject to DNSSEC validation. 1.4.4. Centralized Zone Data Service ICANN operates the Centralized Zone Data Service [CZDS], which is a repository of top-level domain zone files. Users that have been granted access are then able to download zone data. Adding a zone digest to these would provide CZDS users with assurances that the data has not been modified between origination and retrieval. Note that ZONEMD could be added to zone data supplied to CZDS without requiring it to be present in the zone data served by production name servers, since the digest is inherently attached to the specific copy of the zone. 1.4.5. General Purpose Comparison Check Since the zone digest calculation does not depend on presentation format, it could be used to compare multiple copies of a zone received from different sources, or copies generated by different processes. In this case, it serves as a checksum and can be useful even for unsigned zones. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 7] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 1.5. Terminology 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. The terms Private Use, Reserved, Unassigned, and Specification Required are to be interpreted as defined in [RFC8126]. 2. The ZONEMD Resource Record This section describes the ZONEMD Resource Record, including its fields, wire format, and presentation format. The Type value for the ZONEMD RR is 63. The ZONEMD RR is class independent. The RDATA of the resource record consists of four fields: Serial, Scheme, Hash Algorithm, and Digest. 2.1. Non-apex ZONEMD Records This document specifies ZONEMD RRs located at the zone apex. Non- apex ZONEMD RRs are not forbidden, but have no meaning in this specification. Non-apex ZONEMD RRs MUST NOT be used for verification. During digest calculation, non-apex ZONEMD RRs are treated as ordinary RRs. They are digested as-is and the RR is not replaced by a placeholder RR. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, "ZONEMD" always refers to apex records throughout this document. 2.2. ZONEMD RDATA Wire Format The ZONEMD RDATA wire format is encoded as follows: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Serial | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Scheme |Hash Algorithm | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | Digest | / / / / +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 8] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 2.2.1. The Serial Field The Serial field is a 32-bit unsigned integer in network byte order. It is the serial number from the zone's SOA record ([RFC1035] section 3.3.13) for which the zone digest was generated. It is included here to clearly bind the ZONEMD RR to a particular version of the zone's content. Without the serial number, a stand- alone ZONEMD digest has no obvious association to any particular instance of a zone. 2.2.2. The Scheme Field The Scheme field is an 8-bit unsigned integer that identifies the methods by which data is collated and presented as input to the hashing function. Herein, SIMPLE, with Scheme value 1, is the only standardized Scheme defined for ZONEMD records and it MUST be supported by implementations. The Scheme registry is further described in Section 5. Scheme values 240-254 are allocated for Private Use. 2.2.3. The Hash Algorithm Field The Hash Algorithm field is an 8-bit unsigned integer that identifies the cryptographic hash algorithm used to construct the digest. Herein, SHA384 [RFC6234], with Hash Algorithm value 1, is the only standardized Hash Algorithm defined for ZONEMD records that MUST be supported by implementations. When SHA384 is used, the size of the Digest field is 48 octets. The result of the SHA384 digest algorithm MUST NOT be truncated, and the entire 48 octet digest is published in the ZONEMD record. SHA512 [RFC6234], with Hash Algorithm value 2, is also defined for ZONEMD records, and SHOULD be supported by implementations. When SHA512 is used, the size of the Digest field is 64 octets. The result of the SHA512 digest algorithm MUST NOT be truncated, and the entire 64 octet digest is published in the ZONEMD record. Hash Algorithm values 240-254 are allocated for Private Use. The Hash Algorithm registry is further described in Section 5. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 9] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 2.2.4. The Digest Field The Digest field is a variable-length sequence of octets containing the output of the hash algorithm. The length of the Digest field is determined by deducting the fixed size of the Serial, Scheme, and Hash Algorithm fields from the RDATA size in the ZONEMD RR header. The Digest field MUST NOT be shorter than 12 octets. Digests for the SHA384 and SHA512 hash algorithms specified herein are never truncated. Digests for future hash algorithms MAY be truncated, but MUST NOT be truncated to a length that results in less than 96-bits (12 octets) of equivalent strength. Section 3 describes how to calculate the digest for a zone. Section 4 describes how to use the digest to verify the contents of a zone. 2.3. ZONEMD Presentation Format The presentation format of the RDATA portion is as follows: The Serial field is represented as an unsigned decimal integer. The Scheme field is represented as an unsigned decimal integer. The Hash Algorithm field is represented as an unsigned decimal integer. The Digest is represented as a sequence of case-insensitive hexadecimal digits. Whitespace is allowed within the hexadecimal text. 2.4. ZONEMD Example The following example shows a ZONEMD RR in presentation format: example.com. 86400 IN ZONEMD 2018031500 1 1 ( FEBE3D4CE2EC2FFA4BA99D46CD69D6D29711E55217057BEE 7EB1A7B641A47BA7FED2DD5B97AE499FAFA4F22C6BD647DE ) 2.5. Including ZONEMD RRs in a Zone The zone operator chooses an appropriate hash algorithm and scheme, and includes the calculated zone digest in the apex ZONEMD RRset. The zone operator MAY choose any of the defined hash algorithms and schemes, including the private use code points. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 10] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 The ZONEMD RRSet MAY contain multiple records to support algorithm agility [RFC7696]. [RFC Editor: change that to BCP 201] When multiple ZONEMD RRs are present, each MUST specify a unique Scheme and Hash Algorithm tuple. It is RECOMMENDED that a zone include only one ZONEMD RR, unless the zone operator is in the process of transitioning to a new scheme or hash algorithm. 3. Calculating the Digest The algorithm described in this section is designed for the common case of offline DNSSEC signing. Slight deviations may be permitted or necessary in other situations, such as with unsigned zones or online DNSSEC signing. Implementations that deviate from the described algorithm are advised to ensure that it produces ZONEMD RRs, signatures, and dential-of-existence records that are identical to the ones generated by this procedure. 3.1. Add ZONEMD Placeholder In preparation for calculating the zone digest(s), any existing ZONEMD records (and covering RRSIGs) at the zone apex are first deleted. Prior to calculation of the digest, and prior to signing with DNSSEC, one or more placeholder ZONEMD records are added to the zone apex. This ensures that denial-of-existence (NSEC, NSEC3) records are created correctly if the zone is signed with DNSSEC. If placeholders were not added prior to signing, the later addition of ZONEMD records would also require updating the Type Bit Maps field of any apex NSEC/ NSEC3 RRs, which then invalidates the calculated digest value. When multiple ZONEMD RRs are published in the zone, e.g., during an algorithm rollover, each MUST specify a unique Scheme and Hash Algorithm tuple. It is RECOMMENDED that the TTL of the ZONEMD record match the TTL of the SOA. However, the TTL of the ZONEMD record may be safely ignored during verification in all cases. In the placeholder record, the Serial field is set to the current SOA Serial. The Scheme field is set to the value for the chosen collation scheme. The Hash Algorithm field is set to the value for the chosen hash algorithm. Since apex ZONEMD records are excluded from digest calculation, the value of the Digest field does not matter at this point in the process. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 11] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 3.2. Optionally Sign the Zone Following addition of placeholder records, the zone may be signed with DNSSEC. When the digest calculation is complete, and the ZONEMD record is updated, the signature(s) for the ZONEMD RRSet MUST be recalculated and updated as well. Therefore, the signer is not required to calculate a signature over the placeholder record at this step in the process, but it is harmless to do so. 3.3. Scheme-Specific Processing Herein, only the SIMPLE collation scheme is defined. Additional schemes may be defined in future updates to this document. 3.3.1. The SIMPLE Scheme For the SIMPLE scheme, the digest is calculated over the zone as a whole. This means that a change to a single RR in the zone requires iterating over all RRs in the zone to recalculate the digest. SIMPLE is a good choice for zones that are small and/or stable, but probably not good for zones that are large and/or dynamic. Calculation of a zone digest requires RRs to be processed in a consistent format and ordering. This specification uses DNSSEC's canonical on-the-wire RR format (without name compression) and ordering as specified in Sections 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3 of [RFC4034] with the additional provision that RRSets having the same owner name MUST be numerically ordered, in ascending order, by their numeric RR TYPE. 3.3.1.1. SIMPLE Scheme Inclusion/Exclusion Rules When iterating over records in the zone, the following inclusion/ exclusion rules apply: o All records in the zone, including glue records, MUST be included, unless excluded by a subsequent rule. o Occluded data ([RFC5936] Section 3.5) MUST be included. o If there are duplicate RRs with equal owner, class, type, and RDATA, only one instance is included ([RFC4034] Section 6.3), and the duplicates MUST be omitted. o The placeholder apex ZONEMD RR(s) MUST NOT be included. o If the zone is signed, DNSSEC RRs MUST be included, except: Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 12] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 o The RRSIG covering the apex ZONEMD RRSet MUST NOT be included because the RRSIG will be updated after all digests have been calculated. 3.3.1.2. SIMPLE Scheme Digest Calculation A zone digest using the SIMPLE scheme is calculated by concatenating all RRs in the zone, in the format and order described in Section 3.3.1 subject to the inclusion/exclusion rules described in Section 3.3.1.1, and then applying the chosen hash algorithm: digest = hash( RR(1) | RR(2) | RR(3) | ... ) where "|" denotes concatenation. 3.4. Update ZONEMD RR The calculated zone digest is inserted into the placeholder ZONEMD RR. Repeat for each digest if multiple digests are to be published. If the zone is signed with DNSSEC, the RRSIG record(s) covering the ZONEMD RRSet MUST then be added or updated. Because the ZONEMD placeholder was added prior to signing, the zone will already have the appropriate denial-of-existence (NSEC, NSEC3) records. Some DNSSEC implementations (especially "online signing") might update the SOA serial number whenever a new signature is made. To preserve the calculated digest, generation of a ZONEMD signature MUST NOT also result in a change to the SOA serial number. The ZONEMD RR and the matching SOA MUST be published at the same time. 4. Verifying Zone Digest The recipient of a zone that has a ZONEMD RR verifies the zone by calculating the digest as follows. If multiple ZONEMD RRs are present in the zone, e.g., during an algorithm rollover, a match using any one of the recipient's supported Schemes and Hash Algorithms is sufficient to verify the zone. The verifier MAY ignore a ZONEMD RR if its Scheme and Hash Algorithm violates local policy. 1. The verifier MUST first determine whether or not to expect DNSSEC records in the zone. By examining locally configured trust anchors, and, if necessary, querying for and validating DS RRs in the parent zone, the verifier knows whether or not the zone to be verified should include DNSSEC keys and signatures. For zones where signatures are not expected, or if DNSSEC validation is not performed, digest verification continues at step 4 below. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 13] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 2. For zones where signatures are expected, the existence of the apex ZONEMD record MUST be validated. If the DNSSEC data proves the ZONEMD RRSet does not exist, digest verification cannot occur. If the DNSSEC data proves the ZONEMD does exist, but is not found in the zone, digest verification MUST NOT be considered successful. 3. For zones where signatures are expected, the SOA and ZONEMD RRSets MUST have valid signatures, chaining up to a trust anchor. If DNSSEC validation of the SOA or ZONEMD RRSets fails, digest verification MUST NOT be considered successful. 4. When multiple ZONEMD RRs are present, each MUST specify a unique Scheme and Hash Algorithm tuple. If the ZONEMD RRSet contains more than one RR with the same Scheme and Hash Algorithm, digest verification for those ZONEMD RRs MUST NOT be considered successful. 5. Loop over all apex ZONEMD RRs and perform the following steps: A. The SOA Serial field MUST exactly match the ZONEMD Serial field. If the fields do not match, digest verification MUST NOT be considered successful with this ZONEMD RR. B. The Scheme field MUST be checked. If the verifier does not support the given scheme, verification MUST NOT be considered successful with this ZONEMD RR. C. The Hash Algorithm field MUST be checked. If the verifier does not support the given hash algorithm, verification MUST NOT be considered successful with this ZONEMD RR. D. The Digest field size MUST be checked. If the size of the given Digest field is smaller than 12 octets, or if the size is not equal to the size expected for the corresponding Hash Algorithm, verification MUST NOT be considered successful with this ZONEMD RR. E. The zone digest is computed over the zone data as described in Section 3.3, using the Scheme and Hash Algorithm for the current ZONEMD RR. F. The computed digest is compared to the received digest. If the two digest values match, verification is considered successful. Otherwise, verification MUST NOT be considered successful for this ZONEMD RR. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 14] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 Each time zone verification is performed, the verifier SHOULD report the status as either successful or unsuccessful. When unsuccessful, the verifier SHOULD report the reason(s) that verification did not succeed. 5. IANA Considerations 5.1. ZONEMD RRtype This document defines a new DNS RR type, ZONEMD, whose value 63 has been allocated by IANA from the "Resource Record (RR) TYPEs" subregistry of the "Domain Name System (DNS) Parameters" registry: Type: ZONEMD Value: 63 Meaning: Message Digest Over Zone Data Reference: [this document] 5.2.

Security Considerations 6.1. Using Zone Digest Without DNSSEC Users of ZONEMD with unsigned zones are advised that it provides no real protection against attacks. While zone digests can be used in the absence of DNSSEC, this only provides protection against accidental zone corruption, such as transmission errors and truncation. When used in this manner, it effectively serves only as a checksum. For zones not signed with DNSSEC, an attacker can make any zone modifications appear to be valid by recomputing Digest field of a ZONEMD RR. 6.2. Attacks Against the Zone Digest An attacker, whose goal is to modify zone content before it is used by the victim, may consider a number of different approaches. The attacker might perform a downgrade attack to an unsigned zone. This is why Section 4 talks about determining whether or not to expect DNSSEC signatures for the zone in step 1. The attacker might perform a downgrade attack by removing one or more ZONEMD records. Such a removal is detectable only with DNSSEC Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 16] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 validation and is why Section 4 talks about checking denial-of- existence proofs in step 2 and signature validation in step 3. The attacker might alter the Scheme, Hash Algorithm, or Digest fields of the ZONEMD record. Such modifications are detectable only with DNSSEC validation. As stated in [RFC7696], cryptographic algorithms age and become weaker as cryptanalysis techniques and computing resources improve with time. Implementors and publishers of zone digests should anticipate the need for algorithm agility on long timescales. 6.3. Use of Multiple ZONEMD Hash Algorithms When a zone publishes multiple ZONEMD RRs, the overall security is only as good as the weakest hash algorithm in use. For this reason, Section 2 recommends only publishing multiple ZONEMD RRs when transitioning to a new scheme or hash algorithm. Once the transition is complete, the old scheme or hash algorithm should be removed from the ZONEMD RRSet. 6.4. DNSSEC Timing Considerations As with all DNSSEC signatures, the ability to perform signature validation of a ZONEMD record is limited in time. If the DS record(s) or trust anchors for the zone to be verified are no longer available, the recipient cannot validate the ZONEMD RRSet. This could happen even if the ZONEMD signature is still current (not expired), since the zone's DS record(s) may have been withdrawn following a Key Signing Key (KSK) rollover. For zones where it may be important to validate a ZONEMD RRSet through its entire signature validity period, the zone operator should ensure that KSK rollover timing takes this into consideration. 6.5. Attacks Utilizing ZONEMD Queries Nothing in this specification prevents clients from making, and servers from responding to, ZONEMD queries. Servers SHOULD NOT calculate zone digests dynamically (for each query) as this can be used as a CPU resource exhaustion attack. ZONEMD responses could be used in a distributed denial-of-service amplification attack. The ZONEMD RR is moderately sized, much like the DS RR. A single ZONEMD RR contributes approximately 65 to 95 octets to a DNS response, for digest types defined herein. Other RR types, such as DNSKEY, can result in larger amplification effects. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 17] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 6.6. Resilience and Fragility ZONEMD is used to detect incomplete or corrupted zone data prior to its use, thereby increasing resilience by not using corrupt data, but also introduces some denial-of-service fragility by making good data in a zone unavailable if some other data is missing or corrupt. Publishers and consumers of zones containing ZONEMD records should be aware of these tradeoffs. While the intention is to secure the zone data, misconfigurations or implementation bugs are generally indistinguishable from intentional tampering, and could lead to service failures when verification is performed automatically. Zone publishers may want to deploy ZONEMD gradually, perhaps by utilizing one of the private use hash algorithm code points listed in Section 5.3. Similarly, recipients may want to initially configure verification failures only as a warning, and later as an error after gaining experience and confidence with the feature. 7. Performance Considerations This section is provided to make zone publishers aware of the performance requirements and implications of including ZONEMD RRs in a zone. 7.1. SIMPLE SHA384 As mentioned previously, the SIMPLE scheme may be impractical for use in zones that are either large or highly dynamic. Zone publishers should carefully consider the use of ZONEMD in such zones, since it might cause consumers of zone data (e.g., secondary name servers) to expend resources on digest calculation. For such use cases, it is recommended that ZONEMD only be used when digest calculation time is significantly less than propagation times and update intervals. The authors' implementation (Appendix B.1) includes an option to record and report CPU usage of its operation. The software was used to generate digests for more than 800 TLD zones available from [CZDS]. The table below summarizes the results for the SIMPLE scheme and SHA384 hash algorithm grouped by zone size. The Rate column is the mean amount of time per RR to calculate the digest, running on commodity hardware in early 2020. Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 18] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 +---------------------+----------------+ | Zone Size (RRs) | Rate (msec/RR) | +---------------------+----------------+ | 10 - 99 | 0.00683 | | 100 - 999 | 0.00551 | | 1000 - 9999 | 0.00505 | | 10000 - 99999 | 0.00602 | | 100000 - 999999 | 0.00845 | | 1000000 - 9999999 | 0.0108 | | 10000000 - 99999999 | 0.0148 | +---------------------+----------------+ For example, based on the above table, it takes approximately 0.13 seconds to calculate a SIMPLE SHA384 digest for a zone with 22,000 RRs, and about 2.5 seconds for a zone with 300,000 RRs. These benchmarks attempt to emulate a worst-case scenario and take into account the time required to canonicalize the zone for processing. Each of the 800+ zones were measured three times, and then averaged, with a different random sorting of the input data prior to each measurement. 8. Privacy Considerations This specification has no impact on user privacy. 9.

Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 36] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 Appendix B. Implementation Status RFC Editor: Please retain this section upon publication. This section records the status of known implementations of the protocol defined by this specification at the time of publication, and is inspired by the concepts described in RFC7942. Please note that the listing of any individual implementation here does not imply endorsement by the IETF. Furthermore, no effort has been spent to verify the information presented here that was supplied by IETF contributors. This is not intended as, and must not be construed to be, a catalog of available implementations or their features. Readers are advised to note that other implementations may exist. B.1. Authors' Implementation The authors have an open source implementation in C, using the ldns library [ldns-zone-digest]. This implementation is able to perform the following functions: o Read an input zone and output a zone with the ZONEMD placeholder. o Compute zone digest over signed zone and update the ZONEMD record. o Re-compute DNSSEC signature over the ZONEMD record. o Verify the zone digest from an input zone. This implementation does not: o Perform DNSSEC validation of the ZONEMD record during verification. B.2. Shane Kerr's Implementation Shane Kerr wrote an implementation of this specification during the IETF 102 hackathon [ZoneDigestHackathon]. This implementation is in Python and is able to perform the following functions: o Read an input zone and output a zone with ZONEMD record. o Verify the zone digest from an input zone. o Output the ZONEMD record in its defined presentation format. This implementation does not: Wessels, et al. Expires April 18, 2021 [Page 37] Internet-Draft DNS Zone Digest October 2020 o Re-compute DNSSEC signature over the ZONEMD record. o Perform DNSSEC validation of the ZONEMD record. B.3. NIC Chile Labs Implementation NIC Chile Labs wrote an implementation of this specification as part of "dns-tools" suite [DnsTools], which besides digesting, can also sign and verify zones. This implementation is in Go and is able to perform the following functions: o Compute zone digest over signed zone and update the ZONEMD record. o Verify the zone digest from an input zone. o Perform DNSSEC validation of the ZONEMD record during verification. o Re-compute DNSSEC signature over the ZONEMD record.
