Hi,

I'm not sure anyone is formally "on the hook". I'm happy to take a shot =
at it if no one better qualified (a set  definitely including but =
definitely not limited to Andrew) is able, especially as I'm about to be =
stuck in transit for a day or so with nothing to do but homework.

thanks,
Suzanne

Hello All,
A few weeks back a posed a problem statement to the websec list for
what I believe to be a fairly universal security/trust problem. I was
referred to dbound as a potential home for it. In some ways the
problem aligns with trying to better define and discover
'organizational boundaries', and resonates very well with the 'About
Dbound' blurb:

"Both users and applications make inferences from domain names, usually
in an effort to make some determination about identity or the correct
security stance to take."

However I was going down the path of including URI's as part of the
boundary definitions because I'm thinking these types of, perhaps
lesser formal but abundant, relationships wouldn't be integrated
through DNS, as they seem to not be today - consistently (ie: SaaS).
Which raises the question of how do we define an organizations
boundaries in "the cloud" (sorry had to say it) and importantly, how
can they be authenticated ?

Anyway, just wanted to toss this over the fence to confirm if:
a) Is this a valid problem ?
b) Appropriate and/or intersecting with dbound ?

Keep in mind I was unaware of dbound at the time.

Here is my problem statement snippet and thread:
https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/websec/current/msg02286.html

1) Bob trusts and does personal business with a.com.

2) a.com forms a business relationship with b.com to perform a
business function on its behalf (payment processor, blog, whatever).
The landing page is b.com/a

3) Bob visits b.com/a and notices that the page claims to be
affiliated and owned by a.com

4) How can Bob, in absolute terms, trust that b.com/a is affiliated
and a delegated service by a.com? (say, prior to submitting sensitive
information)

Is this a security problem? I think so.


Cheers,
Chris

You say URIs, but i think you mean http or https URIs in particular,
and not all possible URIs.  All possible URIs would wildly complicate
the arguments you're trying to make.

And even bringing in only http or https URIs to dbound would wildly
complicate the dbound problem space, which is already difficult enough.
Several of the dbound use cases involve things that have nothing to do
with http or https (e.g. choice of names in an X.509 certificate; e-mail
domain policies) which wouldn't be enriched at all by this expansion.

And dragging in http or https URIs inevitably starts picking at the
edges of the (conceptual) web browser itself, which is such a larger
problem space than DNS alone that i can't imagine the discussion process
terminating.

The place to set https URI-to-URI relationship policy is via http
mechanisms themselves -- see for example the ongoing discussion about
content-security-policy and CORS headers over in the w3c.

I'd really like to see dbound itself limited in scope to DNS.

Indeed, when I produced my first draft on this topic (now 3 or 4 years
ago, IIRC), I asked some web security people about it, because of the
single origin policy.  I got quite brusque responses to the effect
that it was useless and stupid because it didn't contain scheme and
port, and you coouldn't do anything without that.

Well, I tried.  Boy, that sucked.  (I am not afraid of putting my bad
ideas in public repositories, it turns out.)  Also, it received the
somewhat plausible feedback that we had pretty much always (pace
NAPTR) kept those kinds of things out of the DNS and used the DNS to
describe the thing to connect to, not the details of the service
there.  And none of the people who'd commented so strongly about the
first proposal would say boo about the second.

Finally, the more I thought about this, the more I realised that the
existing arrangements _already_ all depend on the name, and only the
name.  Therefore, it seems to me, to get something that anyone has a
hope of understanding, we need to follow the same approach.  Really,
if you need to differentiate so strongly, then there's an available
answer: use a new host-part in your URI.

Best regards,

A

I don't recall seeing a non-technical, non-acronym description of what
the desired user-level functionality is, that drives wanting to store
URIs or the like.  Can someone either proffer or point to some text of
that sort?

I doubt it.  I tried, though not hard enough, in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sullivan-domain-origin-assert-02.
The history of that document might be useful (and I freely admit might
not be).

Hi all,

Because I had a couple unscheduled minutes, to my surprise, I thought
I'd try banging away on the charter to address the issues that came up
during IESG review.  Here's a go at it.  Shred as appropriate.

Various Internet protocols and applications require some mechanism for
determining whether two domain names are related. The meaning of
"related" in this context is not a unitart concept. The DBOUND working
group will develop one or more solutions to this family of problems,
and will clarify the types of relations relevant.

For example, it is often necessary or useful to determine whether
example.com and foo.example.com, or even example.net, are subject to
the same administrative control. To humans, the answer to this may be
obvious. However, the Domain Name System (DNS), which is the service
that handles domain name queries, does not provide the ability to mark
these sorts of relationships. This makes it impossible to discern
relationships algorithmically. The right answer is not always "compare
the rightmost two labels".

Applications and organizations impose policies and procedures that
create additional structure in their use of domain names. This creates
many possible relationships that are not evident in the names
themselves or in the operational, public representation of the names.

Prior solutions for identifying relationships between domain names have
sought to use the DNS namespace and protocol to extract that information
when it isn't actually there.  See the "Additional Background
Information" section, below, for more details.

For the purpose of this work, domain names are identifiers used by
organizations and services, independent of underlying protocols or
mechanisms.  We define an "organizational domain" to be a name that is
at the top of an administrative hierarchy, defining transition from one
"outside" administrative authority to another that is "inside" the
organization.

There are two broad use cases that seem to be common. The first is a
"top ancestor organization" case. In this case, the goal is to find a
single superordinate name in the DNS tree that can properly make
assertions about the policies and procedures of subordinate names. The
second is to determine, given two different names, whether they are
governed by the same administrative authority. The goal of the DBOUND
working group will develop a unified solution, if possible, for
determining organizational domain boundaries. However, the working
group may discover that the use cases require different solutions.
Should that happen, the working group will develop those different
solutions, using as many common pieces as it can.

Solutions will not involve the proposal of any changes to the DNS
protocol.  They might involve the creation of new resource record types.

This working group will not seek to amend the consuming protocols
themselves (standards for any web, email, or other such protocols)
without rechartering, and such rechartering will only be considered after
completion of the base work.

The working group has a pre-IETF draft to consider as a possible
starting point:  draft-sullivan-dbound-problem-statement

Milestones:
- TBD

[I think the stuff below gets trimmed and moved into problem-statement
or something, right?]

Additional Background Information
---------------------------------

The concept of an administrative boundary is by definition not present
in the DNS.  Relying on the DNS to divine administrative structure thus
renders such solutions unreliable and unnecessarily constrained.  For
example, confirming or dismissing a relationship between two domain
names based on the existence of a zone cut or common ancestry is often
unfounded, and the notion of an upward "tree walk" as a search mechanism
is, therefore, unacceptable.

Currently, the most well known solution in existence is the Public
Suffix List (PSL).  The PSL is maintained by a web browser producer and
is kept current by volunteers on a best-effort basis.  It contains a
list of points in the hierarchical namespace at which registrations take
place, and is used to identify the boundary between so-called "public"
names (below which registrations can occur, such as ".com" or ".org.uk") and
the private names (organizational names) that domain registrars create within
them.  When this list is inaccurate, it exposes a deviation from reality that
degrades service to some and can be exploited by others.  As the PSL is the
de-facto resource, and as there is not a more comprehensive, alternative
solution for relationship identification, the PSL has often been misused
to accomplish things beyond its capabilities.  For example, there is no way
to confirm the relationship between two domain names -- the PSL may only
signal that there is or is not a public boundary between the two.
Additionally, there are questions about the scalability, central management,
and third-party management of the PSL as it currently exists.

In terms of specific use cases, within the realm of email there is a
desire to link an arbitrary fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) to the
organizational domain name (at some point in the namespace above it), in
order to identify a deterministic location where some sort of statement
of policy regarding that FQDN can be found.  With respect to the web,
there is a similar need to identify relationships between different
FQDNs, currently accomplished by comparing ancestries.  However, there
is also desire to reliably identify relationships outside of the realm
and constraints of the namespace tree.

Work such as DMARC (draft-kucherawy-dmarc-base), will certainly benefit
from having this capability.

I agree with your points here. The problem perhaps aligns in spirit
(somewhat), but by definition it doesn't fit entirely in DNS either.
Thanks for the feedback. Any feedback on the problem by itself would
be appreciated as well (perhaps off thread if that is more
appropriate)

Thanks,
Chris

Where does the CA use case asking whether it's OK to put a wildcard
under a name, a/k/a is this a public or private name, fit in?

I realize we may have to add language to mollify people, but I
continue to believe that attempting to enumerate the use cases in the
charter other than perhaps "whatever people use the PSL for" is a
mistake.

R's,
John

We'll never get chartered unless we make this change, so let's just do
it.  If we added more text (before the new sentences I added) that
said basically, "The current way most of this is handled is via a list
published at publicsuffix.org, and the general goal is to accommodate
anything people are using that for today.  However, there are broadly
speaking two use patterns," or something like that, would it work?

Throwing this in if it is helpful.  Treat it like a buffet - take what you
want and leave the rest...

There is an enumeration of some of the use cases of PSL at this URL:
https://publicsuffix.org/learn/ and I suspect part of what this group would
want to do is identify which of those use cases would / could be better
served, more authoritatively served, or otherwise handled through what is
defined in DBOUND.

There is a lot there, very broadly defined in some cases.  For example, it
lists programming languages that are using PSL but not necessarily how or
what the derivative use those libraries might make of PSL.

BUT, there are use cases like the Document Object, cookies,
document.domain, or certs that might be ripe candidates for attention.

Perhaps referencing the URL as part of it?

Sample:
"The current way most of this is handled is via a list published at
publicsuffix.org, and the general goal is to accommodate those use cases
(as defined at https://publicsuffix.org/learn/) of how people are using
that today."

Personally, I think there are at least three and possibly more, but I
agree with you that in this case political expediency trumps accuracy.

Note that the PSL's role in CA wildcard determination is _advisory_, not
normative. That is to say, CAs are not forbidden from issuing
*.publicsuffix, but they have to use a "high risk" procedure for doing
so, which would involve more manual checks. This is intentional.

However, it does mean that a solution which produces the right answer
"most of the time" would be good enough for this use case, because
that's what the PSL does at the moment.

A better URL is this one:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Public_Suffix_List/Uses
Edits welcome.

Indeed; we have little insight into how people are using various
PSL-wrapping libraries.

Well, sure.  Other than what you code into Mozilla products, the PSL's
role in everything is advisory.

Well, yes and no. What I meant by this is that the CAB Forum Baseline
Requirements (which CAs must follow to be in Mozilla's root program) say:

"Before issuing a certificate with a wildcard character (*) in a
CN or subjectAltName of type DNS-ID, the CA MUST establish and follow a
documented procedure† that determines if the wildcard character occurs
in the first label position to the left of a “registry-controlled” label
or “public suffix” (e.g. “*.com”, “*.co.uk”, see RFC 6454
Section 8.2 for further explanation).

If a wildcard would fall within the label immediately to the left of a
registry-controlled† or public suffix, CAs MUST refuse issuance unless
the applicant proves its rightful control of the entire Domain Namespace."

That is, they do not say MUST NOT ISSUE under any circumstances. They
could have said that, in which case I would not describe their role as
"advisory". But they don't. In practice, what happens is that CAs put
such requests into their "higher risk" process.

In the interests of keeping this moving, and given that Richard met with
Eliot and he seems to have a better understanding of what's going on here,
I've updated the charter as per Andrew's suggestion at the top and middle
of this thread, which is now visible here:

https://github.com/mskucherawy/docs/blob/master/charter-dbound

Richard, is this unblockable or do you still have issues for us to consider?
