Authenticated Received Chain (ARC) Protocol
draft-ietf-dmarc-arc-protocol-03

Abstract

Authenticated Received Chain (ARC) permits an organization which is creating or handling email to indicate its involvement with the handling process. It defines a set of cryptographically signed header fields in a manner analagous to that of DKIM. Assertion of responsibility is validated through a cryptographic signature and by querying the Signer’s domain directly to retrieve the appropriate public key. Changes in the message that might break DKIM can be identified through the ARC set of header fields.

Table of Contents

1. Introduction

The development of strong domain authentication through Sender Policy Framework (SPF) [RFC7208] and DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) [RFC6376] has led to the implementation of the DMARC framework [RFC7489] which extends the authentication to the author’s “From:” (RFC5322.From) field and permits publishing policies for non-compliant messages. Implicit within the DMARC framework is a requirement that any intermediaries between the source system and ultimate receiver system need to preserve the validity of the DKIM signature; however, there are common legitimate email practices which break the DKIM validation ([DMARC-INTEROP]). This specification defines an Authenticated Received Chain (ARC). ARC addresses the problems with the untrustworthiness of the standard Received header field sequence. Through the information tracked in the ARC series of headers, receivers can develop a more nuanced interpretation to guide any local policies related to messages that arrive with broken domain authentication (DMARC).

Forgery of the Received header fields is a common tactic used by bad actors. One of the goals of this specification defines a comparable set of trace header fields which can be relied upon by receivers, assuming all ADministrative Management Domain (ADMD) ([RFC5598], section 2.2) intermediary handlers of a message participate in ARC.

The Authentication-Results (A-R) mechanism [RFC7601] permits the output of an email authentication evaluation process to be transmitted from the evaluating agent to a consuming agent that uses the information. On its own, A-R is believable only within a trust domain. ARC provides a protection mechanism for the data, permiting the communication to cross trust domain boundaries.

2. Requirements

The specification of the ARC framework is driven by the following high-level goals, security considerations, and practical operational requirements.

2.1. Primary Design Criteria

2.2. Out of Scope

ARC is not a trust framework. Users of the ARC header fields are cautioned against making unsubstantiated conclusions when encountering a “broken” ARC sequence.

2.3. Utility

The ARC-related set of header fields can be used (when validated) to determine the path that an email message has taken between the originating system and receiver. Subject to the cautions mentioned in Section 10, this information can assist in determining any local policy overrides to for violations of origination domain authentication policies.

3. Terminology

This section defines terms used in the rest of the document.

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].

Readers are encouraged to be familiar with the contents of [RFC5598], and in particular, the potential roles of intermediaries in the delivery of email.

Syntax descriptions use Augmented BNF (ABNF) [RFC5234].

4. Overview

When an email message is received without a properly validated originating domain, the inability to believe the accuracy of a series of Received header fields prevents receiving systems from having a way to infer anything about the handling of the message by looking at the ADMDs through which the message has traveled.

With ARC, participating ADMDs are able to securely register their handling of an email message. If all mediators ([RFC5598]) participate in the ARC process, receivers will be able to rely upon the chain and make local policy decisions informed by that information.

The ARC set of header fields provides a method by which participating intermediaries can indicate the hand-offs for email messages.

5. Definition

This specification defines three new header fields:

Collectively, these header fields form a connected set of attribution information by which receivers can identify the handling path for a message. As described below, a distinct set of these fields share a common sequence number, identified in an “i=” tag. Such a correlated group of header fields is referred to as an “ARC set”.

Specific references to individual header fields use the header field names to distinguish such references.

The ARC sets SHOULD be added at the top of a message header as it transits MTAs that do authentication checks, so some idea of how far away the checks were done can be inferred. They are therefore considered to be a trace field as defined in [RFC5321], and all of the related definitions in that document apply.

Relative ordering of different trace header fields (the ARC sets, DKIM, Received, etc.) is unimportant for this specification. In general, trace header fields, such as ARC, SHOULD be added at the top of the email header fields, but receivers MUST be able to process the header fields from wherever they are found in the message header. Ordering amongst the individual ARC header fields and sets is specified below and MUST be followed for proper canonicalized signing and evaluation.

5.1. Description of the New Header Fields

5.1.1. ARC-Seal

ARC-Seal is a Structured Header Field as defined in Internet Message Format ([RFC5322]). All of the related definitions in that document apply.

The ARC-Seal makes use of Tag=Value Lists as defined in [RFC6376], Section 3.2.

The value of the header field consists of an authentication sequence identifier, and a series of statements and supporting data. The statements indicate relevant data about the signing of the ARC set. The header field can appear more than once in a single message, but each instance MUST have a unique “i=” value.

The ARC-Seal header field includes a digital signature of all preceding ARC message header fields on the message.

5.1.1.1. Tags in the ARC-Seal Header Field Value

The following tags are the only supported tags for an ARC-Seal field. All of them MUST be present. Unknown tags MUST be ignored and do not affect the validity of the header.

5.1.1.1.1. Valid Range for “Instance” ‘i’ Tag Value

5.1.1.1.1.1. Minimum ‘i’ Tag Value

The minimum valid ‘i’ tag value is one (1).

5.1.1.1.1.2. Maximum ‘i’ Tag Value

ARC implementations MUST support at least ten (10) intermediary steps.

More than fifty (50) intermediaries is considered extremely unlikely so ARC chains with more than fifty intermediaries may be marked with “cv=invalid”.

The maximum valid ‘i’ tag value is 1024, but values more that the supported number of intermediaries are meaningless.

5.1.1.2. Differences between DKIM-Signature and ARC-Seal

No ‘bh’ value is defined for ARC-Seal, since only message header fields are ever signed by the ARC-Seal.

ARC-Seal does not use the ‘h’ tag (the list of signed header fields) that is defined for DKIM-Signatures because the list of applicable header fields is fully determined by the construction rules (see Section 5.1.1.3).

ARC-Seal does not use the ‘c’ (canonicalization) tag because only ‘relaxed’ canonicalization [RFC6376] is allowed for ARC-Seal header field canonicalization.

5.1.1.3. Deterministic (Implicit) ‘h’ Tag Value for ARC-Seal

In this section, the term “scope” is used to indicate those header fields signed by an ARC-Seal header field. A number in parentheses indicates the instance of that field, starting at 1. The suffix “-no-b” is used with an ARC-Seal field to indicate that its “b” field is empty at the time the signature is computed, as described in Section 3.5 of [RFC6376]. “AAR” refers to ARC-Authentication-Results, “AMS” to ARC-Message-Signature, “AS” to ARC-Seal, and “ASB” to an ARC-Seal with an empty “b” tag.

Generally, the scope of an ARC set for a message containing “n” ARC sets is the concatenation of the following, for x (instance number) from 1 to n:

Thus for a message with no seals (i.e., upon injection), the scope of the first ARC set is AAR(1):AMS(1):ASB(1). The ARC set thus generated would produce a first ARC-Seal with a “b” value. The next ARC set would include in its signed content the prior scope, so it would have a scope of AAR(1):AMS(1):AS(1):AAR(2):AMS(2):ASB(2).

Note: Typically header field sets appear within the header in descending instance order.

5.1.1.4. Computing the ‘b’ Tag Value for ARC-Seal

The ARC-Seal generation process mirrors the procedure used for DKIM-Signature fields described in Section 5 of [RFC6376] in that it is at first generated with empty “b” field for the purpose of signature generation, and then the “b” value is added just prior to adding the ARC-Seal field to the message.

In particular, signing calculation MUST be done in bottom-up order as specified in Section 5.4.2 of [RFC6376] and as illustrated above Section 5.1.1.3.

5.1.1.5. Determining the ‘cv’ Tag Value for ARC-Seal

In order for a series of ARC sets to be considered valid, the following statements MUST be satisfied:

  1. The chain of ARC sets must have structural integrity (no sets or set component header fields missing, no duplicates, excessive hops (cf. Section 5.1.1.1.1), etc.);
  2. All ARC-Seal header fields MUST validate;
  3. All ARC-Seal header fields MUST have a chain value (cv=) status of “pass” (except the first which MUST be “none”); and
  4. The newest (highest instance number (i=)) AMS header field MUST validate.

5.1.1.5.1. Pseudocode to Determine Chain Value Status:

In the algorith below, a “hop” is represented by the ARC set bearing a particular instance number. The number of hops is the same as the highest instance number found in the ARC sets, or 0 (zero) if there are no ARC sets found within the header.

“Success” means that the signature found in the referenced header validates when against the content which was signed.

if (lastest_hop.AS.cv == "invalid") {
  terminate analysis - no further ARC processing
}

if (chain not structurally valid) {
  return "invalid"
} else if (num_hops == 0) {
  return "none"
} else {
  if (validate(latest_hop.AMS) != success) {
    return "fail"
  } else {
    // note that instance is always >= 1 by definition
    for each hop (from highest instance to lowest) {  
      if ((hop_num > 1 and hop.ARC-Seal.cv == "pass") or
          (hop_num == 1 and hop.ARC-Seal.cv == "none")) {
        if (validate(hop.ARC-Seal) != success) {
          return "fail" 
        } 
      } else {
        return "fail"
      }
    }
  }

  return "pass"
}

5.1.2. ARC-Message-Signature

The ARC-Message-Signature header field is a special variant of a DKIM-Signature [RFC6376], using only the relaxed header canonicalization rules specified in [RFC6376].

The ARC-Message-Signature header field can appear multiple times in a single message but each instance MUST have a unique “i=” value.

5.1.2.1. Differences between DKIM-Signature and ARC-Message-Signature

5.1.2.1.1. Header Fields Eligible For ARC-Message-Signature Inclusion

Participants may include any other header fields within the scope of the ARC-Message-Signature signature except that they MUST NOT include ARC-Seal headers fields. In particular, including all DKIM-Signature header fields and all ARC-Authentication-Results header fields is RECOMMENDED. The advice regarding headers to include or avoid for ARC-Message-Signature is otherwise identical to that specified in section 5.4 of [RFC6376].

5.1.2.1.2. “Canonicalization” ‘c’ Tag Value

The ARC-Message-Signature header field MUST be created using the header and body canonicalization rules mechanisms in Section 3.4 of [RFC6376]. The corresponding “c=” tag value MUST be specified in the AMS header field value.

5.1.2.1.3. “Instance” ‘i’ Tag Value

Contrary to DKIM, the ‘i’ tag for ARC-Message-Signature identifies the sequential instance of the field, thus indicating that it is part of a particular ARC set. That is, an ARC-Message-Signature, ARC-Seal, and ARC-Authentication-Results all bearing an “i=” tag with the same value are part of the same ARC set (see Section 5.1.1.1).

5.1.2.1.4. ‘v’ Tag Value

There is no “v” tag for ARC-Message-Signature.

5.1.2.2. Computing the ‘b’ Tag Value for ARC-Message-Signature

As with DKIM-Signature and ARC-Seal header fields, the “b” tag of the ARC-Message-Signature is empty until the signature is actually computed, and only then is it added to the header field, before affixing the ARC-Message-Signature to the message.

As with ARC-Seal and DKIM-Signature header fields, the order of header fields signed MUST be done in bottom-up order.

5.1.3. ARC-Authentication-Results

ARC-Authentication-Results is a copy of the Authentication-Results header field [RFC7601] value with the corresponding ARC-set instance (“i=”) tag value prefixed to the Authentication-Results value string. Since Authentication-Results headers are frequently deleted from a message’s header list, the AAR is created for archival purposes by each ARC-participating ADMD outside of the trust boundary of the originating system.

The instance identifier MUST be separated from the rest of the Authentication-Results value contents with a semi-colon (‘;’, 0x3b).

The value of the header field (after removing comments) consists of an instance identifier, an authentication identifier, and then a series of statements and supporting data, as described in [RFC7601]. The header field can appear multiple times in a single message but each instance MUST have a unique “i=” value.

5.1.3.1. ‘i’ Tag Value

ARC-Authentication-Results requires inclusion of an “i=” tag before the “authserv-id” which indicates the ARC set to which it belongs as described in the previous section (see Section 5.1.1.1).

The “i=” tag MUST be separated from the rest of the Authentication-Results value contents with a semi-colon (‘;’, 0x3b).

5.2. Constructing the ARC-Seal Set

The ARC-Seal is built in the same fashion as the analogous DKIM-Signature [RFC6376], using the relaxed header canonicalization rules specified in that document but with a strict ordering component for the header fields covered by the cryptographic signature:

  1. The ARC sets MUST be ordered in descending instance (i=) order.
  2. The referenced ARC-Message-Signatures (matching i= value) MUST immediately follow the ARC-Seal instance which included the reference.
  3. The associated ARC-Authentication-Results header field (matching i= value) MUST be the last item in the list for each set of ARC header fields.

Thus, when prefixing ARC header fields to the existing header,

  1. the AAR header would be prefixed first; then
  2. the AMS would be calculated and prefixed (above the AAR);
  3. lastly the AS would be calculated and prefixed (above the AMS).

The ARC-Message-Signature field(s) MUST not include any of the ARC-Seal header field(s) (from prior ARC sets) in their signing scope in order maintain a separation of responsibilities. When adding an ARC-Authentication-Results header field, it MUST be added before computing the ARC-Message-Signature. When “sealing” the message, an operator MUST create and attach the ARC-Message-Signature before the ARC-Seal in order to reference it and embed the ARC-Message-Signature within the ARC-Seal signature scope.

Each ARC-Seal is connected to its respective ARC-Message-Signature and ARC-Authentication-Results through the common value of the “i=” tag.

5.2.1. Handling Minor Violations in the ARC Sets

When ordering the ARC header field sets, misordering of header fields MUST be resolved as follows:

  1. (First) By descending order of i=; then
  2. (Second) By descending order of t= (from the ARC-Seal header field within the set); then
  3. (Finally) By ascending US-ASCII [RFC1345] sort order for the entire canonicalized header field set

The intent of specifying this ordering is to allow downstream message handlers to add their own ARC sets in a deterministic manner and to provide some resiliance against downstream MTAs which may reorder header fields.

5.2.2. Handling Major Violations in the ARC Sets

Gross violations of the ARC protocol definition (e.g., such as duplicated instance numbers or missing header fields or header field sets) MUST be terminated by the detecting system setting ‘cv=invalid’ in the ARC-Seal header. The status of the ARC evaluation reported in the corresponding AAR header field MUST be ‘unknown’.

Because the violations can not be readily enumerated, the header fields signed by the AS header field in the case of a major violation MUST be only the matching ‘i=’ instance headers created by the MTA which detected the malformed chain, as if this newest ARC set was the only set present.

Downstream MTAs SHOULD NOT attempt any analysis on an ARC chain that has been marked ‘invalid’.

5.3. Key Management and Binding

The public keys for ARC header fields follow the same requirements and semantics as those for DKIM-Signatures, described in Section 3.6 of [RFC6376]. Operators may use distinct selectors for the ARC header fields at their own discretion.

5.3.1. Namespace

All ARC-related keys are stored in the same namespace as DKIM keys [RFC6376]: “_domainkey” specifically by adding the “._domainkey” suffix to the name of the key (the “selector”). For example, given an ARC-Seal (or ARC-Message-Signature) field of a “d=” tag value of “example.com” and an “s=” value of “foo.bar”, the DNS query seeking the public key will a query at the name “foo.bar._domainkey.example.com”.

5.4. Supporting Alternate Signing Algorithms

In the following branch diagrams, each algorithm is represented by an ‘A’ or ‘B’ at each hop to depict the ARC chain that develops over a five hop scenario. ‘x’ represents a hop that does not support that algorithm.

5.4.1. Introductory Period

Intermediaries MUST be able to validate ARC chains build with either algorithm but MAY create ARC sets with either (or both) algorithm.

The introductory period should be at least six (6) months.

5.4.2. Co-Existence Period

Intermediaries MUST be able to validate ARC chains build with either algorithm and MUST create ARC sets with both algorithms. Chains ending with either algorithm may be used for the result.

5.4.3. Deprecation Period

ARC sets built with algorithms that are being deprecated MAY be considered valid within an ARC chain, however, intermediaries MUST not create additional sets with the deprecated algorithm.

The deprecation period should be at least two (2) years.

5.4.4. Obsolescence Period

ARC sets which are created with obsolete algorithms must be ignored.

6. Usage

For a more thorough treatment of the recommended usage of the ARC header fields for both intermediaries and end receivers, please consult [ARC-USAGE].

6.1. Participation

The inclusion of additional ARC sets is to be done whenever a trust boundary is crossed, and especially when prior DKIM-Signatures might not survive the handling being performed such as some mailing lists that modify the content of messages or some gateway transformations. Note that trust boundaries might or might not exactly correspond with ADMD boundaries.

Each participating ADMD MUST validate the preceding ARC set as a part of asserting their own seal. Even if the set is determined to be invalid, a participating ADMD SHOULD apply their own seal because this can help in analysis of breakage points in the chain.

6.2. Relationship between DKIM Signatures and ARC Headers

ARC-aware DKIM signers do not DKIM-sign any ARC header fields.

6.3. Validating the ARC Set of Header Fields

Determining the validity of a chain of ARC sets is defined above in Section 5.1.1.5. Validation failures MUST be indicated with a “cv=” tag value of ‘fail’ when attaching a subsequent ARC-Seal header field.

6.4. ARC Set Validity

6.4.1. Assessing Chain Validity Violations

There are a wide variety of ways in which the ARC set of header fields can be broken. Receivers need to be wary of ascribing motive to such breakage although patterns of common behaviour may provide some basis for adjusting local policy decisions.

This specification is exclusively focused on well-behaved, participating intermediaries that result in a valid chain of ARC-related header fields. The value of such a well-formed, valid chain needs to be interpreted with care since malicious content can be easily introduced by otherwise well-intended senders through machine or account compromises. All normal content-based analysis still needs to be performed on any messages bearing a valid chain of ARC header sets.

6.4.2. Responding to ARC Validity Violations

If a receiver determines that the ARC set of header fields has is invalid, the receiver MAY signal the breakage through the extended SMTP response code 5.7.7 [RFC3463] “message integrity failure” [ENHANCED-STATUS] and corresponding SMTP response code.

6.4.3. Recording the Results of ARC Evaluation

Receivers MAY add an “arc=pass” or “arc=fail” method annotation into a locally-affixed Authentication-Results [RFC7601] header field.

6.4.4. Output Data Points from ARC Evaluation

The evaluation of a series of ARC sets results in the following data which MAY be used to inform local-policy decisions:

6.4.5. Reporting ARC Effects for DMARC Local Policy

Receivers SHOULD indicate situations in which ARC evaluation influenced the results of their local policy determination. DMARC reporting of ARC-informed decisions is augmented by adding a local_policy comment explanation as follows:

<policy_evaluated>
  <disposition>delivered</disposition>
  <dkim>fail</dkim>
  <spf>fail</spf>
  <reason>
   <type>local_policy</type>
   <comment>arc=pass ams=d1.example d=d1.example,d2.example</comment>
  </reason>
</policy_evaluated>

7. Privacy Considerations

The ARC-Seal chain provides a verifiable record of the handlers for a message. Anonymous remailers will probably not find this to match their operating goals.

8. IANA Considerations

This specification adds three new header fields as defined below.

8.1. Authentication-Results Method Registry Update

This draft adds one item to the IANA “Email Authentication Methods” registry:

8.2. Definitions of the ARC header fields

This specification adds three new header fields to the “Permanent Message Header Field Registry”, as follows:

9. Implementation Status

[[ Note to the RFC Editor: Please remove this section before publication along with the reference to [RFC6982]. ]]

This section records the status of known implementations of the protocol defined by this specification at the time of posting of this Internet-Draft, and is based on a proposal described in [RFC6982]. The description of implementations in this section is intended to assist the IETF in its decision processes in progressing drafts to RFCs. 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.

According to [RFC6982], “this will allow reviewers and working groups to assign due consideration to documents that have the benefit of running code, which may serve as evidence of valuable experimentation and feedback that have made the implemented protocols more mature. It is up to the individual working groups to use this information as they see fit”.

This information is known to be correct as of the third interoperability test event which was held on 2016-06-17.

10. Security Considerations

The Security Considerations of [RFC6376] and [RFC7601] apply directly to this specification.

Inclusion of ARC sets in the header of emails may cause problems for some older or more constrained MTAs if they are unable to accept the greater size of the header.

Operators who receive a message bearing N ARC sets has to complete N+1 DNS queries to evaluate the chain (barring DNS redirection mechanisms which can increase the lookups for a given target value). This has at least two effects:

  1. An attacker can send a message to an ARC partipant with a concocted sequence of ARC sets bearing the domains of intended victims, and all of them will be queried by the participant until a failure is discovered.
  2. DKIM only does one DNS check per signature, while this one can do many. Absent caching, slow DNS responses can cause SMTP timeouts; this could be exploited as a DoS attack.

10.1. Message Content Suspicion

Recipients are cautioned to treat messages bearing ARC sets with the same suspicion that they apply to all other email messages. This includes appropriate content scanning and other checks for potentially malicious content. The handlers which are identified within the ARC-Seal chain may be used to provide input to local policy engines in cases where the sending system’s DKIM-Signature does not validate.
