Internet-Draft | FROST | July 2022 |
Connolly, et al. | Expires 12 January 2023 | [Page] |
In this draft, we present the two-round signing variant of FROST, a Flexible Round-Optimized Schnorr Threshold signature scheme. FROST signatures can be issued after a threshold number of entities cooperate to issue a signature, allowing for improved distribution of trust and redundancy with respect to a secret key. Further, this draft specifies signatures that are compatible with [RFC8032]. However, unlike [RFC8032], the protocol for producing signatures in this draft is not deterministic, so as to ensure protection against a key-recovery attack that is possible when even only one participant is malicious.¶

Unlike signatures in a single-party setting, threshold signatures require cooperation among a threshold number of signers each holding a share of a common private key. The security of threshold schemes in general assume that an adversary can corrupt strictly fewer than a threshold number of participants.¶
This document presents a variant of a Flexible Round-Optimized Schnorr Threshold (FROST) signature scheme originally defined in [FROST20]. FROST reduces network overhead during threshold signing operations while employing a novel technique to protect against forgery attacks applicable to prior Schnorr-based threshold signature constructions. The variant of FROST presented in this document requires two rounds to compute a signature. Single-round signing with FROST is out of scope.¶
For select ciphersuites, the signatures produced by this draft are compatible with [RFC8032]. However, unlike [RFC8032], signatures produced by FROST are not deterministic, since deriving nonces deterministically allows for a complete key-recovery attack in multi-party discrete logarithm-based signatures, such as FROST.¶
While an optimization to FROST was shown in [Schnorr21] that reduces scalar multiplications from linear in the number of signers to constant, this draft does not specify that optimization due to the malleability that this optimization introduces, as shown in [StrongerSec22]. Specifically, this optimization removes the guarantee that the set of signers that started round one of the protocol is the same set of signers that produced the signature output by round two.¶
Key generation for FROST signing is out of scope for this document. However, for completeness, key generation with a trusted dealer is specified in Appendix C.¶

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 following terminology is used throughout this document.¶
MAX_SIGNERS
denotes the number of participants, and the number of shares that s
is split into. This value MUST NOT exceed 2^16-1.¶
MIN_SIGNERS
denotes the threshold number of participants required to issue a signature, where MIN_SIGNERS <= MAX_SIGNERS.¶
NUM_SIGNERS
denotes the number of signers that participate in an invocation of FROST signing, where
MIN_SIGNERS <= NUM_SIGNERS <= MAX_SIGNERS.¶
Additionally, the following notation is used throughout the document.¶
encode_uint16(x)
: Convert two byte unsigned integer (uint16) x
to a 2-byte,
big-endian byte string. For example, encode_uint16(310) = [0x01, 0x36]
.¶
random_bytes(n)
: Outputs n
bytes, sampled uniformly at random
using a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG).¶
len(l)
: Outputs the length of input list l
, e.g., len([1,2,3]) = 3)
.¶
reverse(l)
: Outputs the list l
in reverse order, e.g., reverse([1,2,3]) = [3,2,1]
.¶
range(a, b)
: Outputs a list of integers from a
to b-1
in ascending order, e.g., range(1, 4) = [1,2,3]
.¶
pow(a, b)
: Output the integer result of a
to the power of b
, e.g., pow(2, 3) = 8
.¶
Unless otherwise stated, we assume that secrets are sampled uniformly at random using a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator (CSPRNG); see [RFC4086] for additional guidance on the generation of random numbers.¶
FROST signing depends on the following cryptographic constructs:¶
These are described in the following sections.¶
FROST depends on an abelian group of prime order p
. We represent this
group as the object G
that additionally defines helper functions described below. The group operation
for G
is addition +
with identity element I
. For any elements A
and B
of the group G
,
A + B = B + A
is also a member of G
. Also, for any A
in G
, there exists an element
-A
such that A + (-A) = (-A) + A = I
. For convenience, we use -
to denote
subtraction, e.g., A - B = A + (-B)
. Scalar multiplication is equivalent to the repeated
application of the group operation on an element A with itself r-1
times, this is denoted
as r*A = A + ... + A
. For any element A
, p * A = I
. We denote B
as a fixed generator
of the group. Scalar base multiplication is equivalent to the repeated application of the group
operation B
with itself r-1
times, this is denoted as ScalarBaseMult(r)
. The set of
scalars corresponds to GF(p)
, which we refer to as the scalar field. This document uses types
Element
and Scalar
to denote elements of the group G
and its set of scalars, respectively.
We denote equality comparison as ==
and assignment of values by =
.¶
We now detail a number of member functions that can be invoked on G
.¶
G
(i.e. p
).¶

and fails if the input is not a valid byte representation of an element of
the group. This function can raise a DeserializeError if deserialization fails
or A

input validation steps.¶

of fixed length Ns

This function can raise a DeserializeError if deserialization fails; see
Section 6 for group-specific input validation steps.¶
FROST requires the use of a cryptographically secure hash function, generically written as H, which functions effectively as a random oracle. For concrete recommendations on hash functions which SHOULD be used in practice, see Section 6. Using H, we introduce four separate domain-separated hashes, H1, H2, H3, and H4, where H1, H2, and H4 map arbitrary byte strings to Scalar elements of the prime-order group scalar field, and H3 is an alias for H with a domain separator. The details of H1, H2, H3, and H4 vary based on ciphersuite. See Section 6 for more details about each.¶
Beyond the core dependencies, the protocol in this document depends on the following helper operations:¶
These sections describes these operations in more detail.¶
To hedge against a bad RNG that outputs predictable values, we generate
nonces by sourcing fresh randomness and combine with the secret key,
to create a domain-separated hash function from the ciphersuite hash
function H
, H4
:¶
nonce_generate(secret): Inputs: - secret, a Scalar Outputs: nonce, a Scalar def nonce_generate(secret): k_enc = random_bytes(32) secret_enc = G.SerializeScalar(secret) return H4(k_enc || secret_enc)¶
This section describes operations on and associated with polynomials over Scalars
that are used in the main signing protocol. A polynomial of maximum degree t
is represented as a list of t coefficients, where the constant term of the polynomial
is in the first position and the highest-degree coefficient is in the last position.
A point on the polynomial is a tuple (x, y), where y = f(x)
. For notational
convenience, we refer to the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of a
point p as p.x
and p.y
, respectively.¶
This section describes a method for evaluating a polynomial f
at a
particular input x
, i.e., y = f(x)
using Horner's method.¶
polynomial_evaluate(x, coeffs): Inputs: - x, input at which to evaluate the polynomial, a Scalar - coeffs, the polynomial coefficients, a list of Scalars Outputs: Scalar result of the polynomial evaluated at input x def polynomial_evaluate(x, coeffs): value = 0 for coeff in reverse(coeffs): value *= x value += coeff return value¶
The function derive_lagrange_coefficient
derives a Lagrange coefficient
to later perform polynomial interpolation, and is provided a list of x-coordinates
as input. Note that derive_lagrange_coefficient
does not permit any x-coordinate
to equal 0. Lagrange coefficients are used in FROST to evaluate a polynomial f
at x-coordinate 0, i.e., f(0)
, given a list of t
other x-coordinates.¶
derive_lagrange_coefficient(x_i, L): Inputs: - x_i, an x-coordinate contained in L, a Scalar - L, the set of x-coordinates, each a Scalar Outputs: L_i, the i-th Lagrange coefficient Errors: - "invalid parameters", if any x-coordinate is equal to 0 or if x_i is not in L def derive_lagrange_coefficient(x_i, L): if x_i == 0: raise "invalid parameters" for x_j in L: if x_j == 0: raise "invalid parameters" if x_i not in L: raise "invalid parameters" numerator = Scalar(1) denominator = Scalar(1) for x_j in L: if x_j == x_i: continue numerator *= x_j denominator *= x_j - x_i L_i = numerator / denominator return L_i¶
Secret sharing requires "splitting" a secret, which is represented as
a constant term of some polynomial f
of degree t-1
. Recovering the
constant term occurs with a set of t
points using polynomial
interpolation, defined as follows.¶
Inputs: - points, a set of t points on a polynomial f, each a tuple of two Scalar values representing the x and y coordinates Outputs: The constant term of f, i.e., f(0) def polynomial_interpolation(points): L = [] for point in points: L.append(point.x) f_zero = Scalar(0) for point in points: delta = point.y * derive_lagrange_coefficient(point.x, L) f_zero = f_zero + delta return f_zero¶
This section describes helper functions that work on lists of values produced during the FROST protocol. The following function encodes a list of signer commitments into a bytestring for use in the FROST protocol.¶
Inputs: - commitment_list = [(i, hiding_nonce_commitment_i, binding_nonce_commitment_i), ...], a list of commitments issued by each signer, where each element in the list indicates the signer identifier i and their two commitment Element values (hiding_nonce_commitment_i, binding_nonce_commitment_i). This list MUST be sorted in ascending order by signer identifier. Outputs: A byte string containing the serialized representation of commitment_list def encode_group_commitment_list(commitment_list): encoded_group_commitment = nil for (identifier, hiding_nonce_commitment, binding_nonce_commitment) in commitment_list: encoded_commitment = encode_uint16(identifier) || G.SerializeElement(hiding_nonce_commitment) || G.SerializeElement(binding_nonce_commitment) encoded_group_commitment = encoded_group_commitment || encoded_commitment return encoded_group_commitment¶
The following function is used to extract participant identifiers from a commitment list.¶
Inputs: - commitment_list = [(i, hiding_nonce_commitment_i, binding_nonce_commitment_i), ...], a list of commitments issued by each signer, where each element in the list indicates the signer identifier i and their two commitment Element values (hiding_nonce_commitment_i, binding_nonce_commitment_i). This list MUST be sorted in ascending order by signer identifier. Outputs: A list of signer participant identifiers def participants_from_commitment_list(commitment_list): identifiers = [] for (identifier, _, _) in commitment_list: identifiers.append(identifier) return identifiers¶
The following function is used to extract a binding factor from a list of binding factors.¶
Inputs: - binding_factor_list = [(i, binding_factor), ...], a list of binding factors for each signer, where each element in the list indicates the signer identifier i and their binding factor. This list MUST be sorted in ascending order by signer identifier. - identifier, Identifier i of the signer. Outputs: A Scalar value. Errors: "invalid participant", when the designated participant is not known def binding_factor_for_participant(binding_factor_list, identifier): binding_factors = [] for (i, binding_factor) in commitment_list: if identifier == i: return binding_factor raise "invalid participant"¶
This section describes the subroutine for computing binding factors based on the signer commitment list and message to be signed.¶
Inputs: - commitment_list = [(i, hiding_nonce_commitment_i, binding_nonce_commitment_i), ...], a list of commitments issued by each signer, where each element in the list indicates the signer identifier i and their two commitment Element values (hiding_nonce_commitment_i, binding_nonce_commitment_i). This list MUST be sorted in ascending order by signer identifier. - msg, the message to be signed. Outputs: A list of (identifier, Scalar) tuples representing the binding factors. def compute_binding_factors(commitment_list, msg): msg_hash = H3(msg) encoded_commitment_hash = H3(encode_group_commitment_list(commitment_list)) rho_input_prefix = msg_hash || encoded_commitment_hash binding_factor_list = [] for (identifier, hiding_nonce_commitment, binding_nonce_commitment) in commitment_list: rho_input = rho_input_prefix || encode_uint16(identifier) binding_factor = H1(rho_input) binding_factor_list.append((identifier, binding_factor)) return binding_factor_list¶
This section describes the subroutine for creating the group commitment from a commitment list.¶
Inputs: - commitment_list = [(i, hiding_nonce_commitment_i, binding_nonce_commitment_i), ...], a list of commitments issued by each signer, where each element in the list indicates the signer identifier i and their two commitment Element values (hiding_nonce_commitment_i, binding_nonce_commitment_i). This list MUST be sorted in ascending order by signer identifier. - binding_factor_list = [(i, binding_factor), ...], a list of (identifier, Scalar) tuples representing the binding factor Scalar for the given identifier. This list MUST be sorted in ascending order by identifier. Outputs: An Element in G representing the group commitment def compute_group_commitment(commitment_list, binding_factor_list): group_commitment = G.Identity() for (identifier, hiding_nonce_commitment, binding_nonce_commitment) in commitment_list: binding_factor = binding_factor_for_participant(binding_factors, identifier) group_commitment = group_commitment + (hiding_nonce_commitment + (binding_factor * binding_nonce_commitment)) return group_commitment¶
This section describes the subroutine for creating the per-message challenge.¶
Inputs: - group_commitment, an Element in G representing the group commitment - group_public_key, public key corresponding to the group signing key, an Element in G. - msg, the message to be signed. Outputs: A Scalar representing the challenge def compute_challenge(group_commitment, group_public_key, msg): group_comm_enc = G.SerializeElement(group_commitment) group_public_key_enc = G.SerializeElement(group_public_key) challenge_input = group_comm_enc || group_public_key_enc || msg challenge = H2(challenge_input) return challenge¶
We now present the two-round variant of the FROST threshold signature protocol for producing Schnorr signatures. It involves signer participants and a Coordinator. Signer participants are entities with signing key shares that participate in the threshold signing protocol. The Coordinator is an entity with the following responsibilities:¶
FROST assumes the selection of all participants, including Coordinator and set of signers, are all chosen external to the protocol. Note that it is possible to deploy the protocol without a distinguished Coordinator; see Section 7.3 for more information.¶
Because key generation is not specified, all signers are assumed to have the (public) group state that we refer to as "group info" below, and their corresponding signing key shares.¶
In particular, it is assumed that the Coordinator and each signer participant P_i
knows the following
group info:¶
Element
in G
, denoted PK
, corresponding
to the group secret key s
, which is a Scalar
. PK
is an output from the group's key generation protocol, such as trusted_dealer_keygen
or a DKG.¶
PK_i
, which are similarly outputs
from the group's key generation protocol, Element
values in G
.¶
And that each participant with identifier i
additionally knows the following:¶
i
s signing key share sk_i
, which is the i-th secret share of s
, a Scalar
.¶
By construction, PK = G.ScalarBaseMult(s)
and PK_i = G.ScalarMultBase(sk_i)
for each participant i
.¶
The exact key generation mechanism is out of scope for this specification. In general, key generation is a protocol that outputs (1) a shared, group public key PK owned by each Signer, and (2) individual shares of the signing key owned by each Signer. In general, two possible key generation mechanisms are possible, one that requires a single, trusted dealer, and the other which requires performing a distributed key generation protocol. We highlight key generation mechanism by a trusted dealer in Appendix C, for reference.¶
This signing variant of FROST requires signers to perform two network rounds: 1) generating and publishing commitments, and 2) signature share generation and publication. The first round serves for each participant to issue a commitment to a nonce. The second round receives commitments for all signers as well as the message, and issues a signature share with respect to that message. The Coordinator performs the coordination of each of these rounds. At the end of the second round, the Coordinator then performs an aggregation step and outputs the final signature. This complete interaction is shown in Figure 1.¶
(group info) (group info, (group info, | signing key share) signing key share) | | | v v v Coordinator Signer-1 ... Signer-n ------------------------------------------------------------ message ------------> | == Round 1 (Commitment) == | signer commitment | | |<-----------------------+ | | ... | | signer commitment | |<-----------------------------------------+ == Round 2 (Signature Share Generation) == | | signer input | | +------------------------> | | signature share | | |<-----------------------+ | | ... | | signer input | +------------------------------------------> | signature share | <------------------------------------------+ | == Aggregation == | signature | <-----------+
Details for round one are described in Section 5.1, and details for round two are described in Section 5.2. The final Aggregation step is described in Section 5.3.¶
FROST assumes that all inputs to each round, especially those of which are received over the network, are validated before use. In particular, this means that any value of type Element or Scalar is deserialized using DeserializeElement and DeserializeScalar, respectively, as these functions perform the necessary input validation steps.¶
FROST assumes reliable message delivery between the Coordinator and signer participants in order for the protocol to complete. An attacker masquerading as another participant will result only in an invalid signature; see Section 7. However, in order to identify any participant which has misbehaved (resulting in the protocol aborting) to take actions such as excluding them from future signing operations, we assume that the network channel is additionally authenticated; confidentiality is not required.¶
Round one involves each signer generating nonces and their corresponding public commitments. A nonce is a pair of Scalar values, and a commitment is a pair of Element values.¶
Each signer in round one generates a nonce nonce = (hiding_nonce, binding_nonce)
and commitment
comm = (hiding_nonce_commitment, binding_nonce_commitment)
.¶
Inputs: sk_i, the secret key share, a Scalar Outputs: (nonce, comm), a tuple of nonce and nonce commitment pairs, where each value in the nonce pair is a Scalar and each value in the nonce commitment pair is an Element def commit(sk_i): hiding_nonce = nonce_generate(sk_i) binding_nonce = nonce_generate(sk_i) hiding_nonce_commitment = G.ScalarBaseMult(hiding_nonce) binding_nonce_commitment = G.ScalarBaseMult(binding_nonce) nonce = (hiding_nonce, binding_nonce) comm = (hiding_nonce_commitment, binding_nonce_commitment) return (nonce, comm)¶
The private output nonce
from Participant P_i
is stored locally and kept private
for use in the second round. This nonce MUST NOT be reused in more than one invocation
of FROST, and it MUST be generated from a source of secure randomness. The public output
comm
from Participant P_i
is sent to the Coordinator.¶
In round two, the Coordinator is responsible for sending the message to be signed, and for choosing which signers will participate (of number at least MIN_SIGNERS). Signers additionally require locally held data; specifically, their private key and the nonces corresponding to their commitment issued in round one.¶
The Coordinator begins by sending each signer the message to be signed along with the set of signing commitments for all signers in the participant list. Each signer MUST validate the inputs before processing the Coordinator's request. In particular, the Signer MUST validate commitment_list, deserializing each group Element in the list using DeserializeElement from Section 3.1. If deserialization fails, the Signer MUST abort the protocol. Moreover, each signer MUST ensure that their identifier as well as their commitment as from the first round appears in commitment_list. Applications which require that signers not process arbitrary input messages are also required to also perform relevant application-layer input validation checks; see Section 7.4 for more details.¶
Upon receipt and successful input validation, each Signer then runs the following procedure to produce its own signature share.¶
Inputs: - identifier, Identifier i of the signer. Note identifier will never equal 0. - sk_i, Signer secret key share, a Scalar. - group_public_key, public key corresponding to the group signing key, an Element in G. - nonce_i, pair of Scalar values (hiding_nonce, binding_nonce) generated in round one. - msg, the message to be signed (sent by the Coordinator). - commitment_list = [(j, hiding_nonce_commitment_j, binding_nonce_commitment_j), ...], a list of commitments issued in Round 1 by each signer and sent by the Coordinator. Each element in the list indicates the signer identifier j and their two commitment Element values (hiding_nonce_commitment_j, binding_nonce_commitment_j). This list MUST be sorted in ascending order by signer identifier. Outputs: a Scalar value representing the signature share def sign(identifier, sk_i, group_public_key, nonce_i, msg, commitment_list): # Compute the binding factor(s) binding_factor_list = compute_binding_factors(commitment_list, msg) binding_factor = binding_factor_for_participant(binding_factor_list, identifier) # Compute the group commitment group_commitment = compute_group_commitment(commitment_list, binding_factor_list) # Compute Lagrange coefficient participant_list = participants_from_commitment_list(commitment_list) lambda_i = derive_lagrange_coefficient(identifier, participant_list) # Compute the per-message challenge challenge = compute_challenge(group_commitment, group_public_key, msg) # Compute the signature share (hiding_nonce, binding_nonce) = nonce_i sig_share = hiding_nonce + (binding_nonce * binding_factor) + (lambda_i * sk_i * challenge) return sig_share¶
The output of this procedure is a signature share. Each signer then sends these shares back to the Coordinator. Each signer MUST delete the nonce and corresponding commitment after this round completes, and MUST use the nonce to generate at most one signature share.¶
Note that the lambda_i
value derived during this procedure does not change
across FROST signing operations for the same signing group. As such, signers
can compute it once and store it for reuse across signing sessions.¶
Upon receipt from each Signer, the Coordinator MUST validate the input signature share using DeserializeElement. If validation fails, the Coordinator MUST abort the protocol. If validation succeeds, the Coordinator then verifies the set of signature shares using the following procedure.¶
After signers perform round two and send their signature shares to the Coordinator, the Coordinator verifies each signature share for correctness. In particular, for each signer, the Coordinator uses commitment pairs generated during round one and the signature share generated during round two, along with other group parameters, to check that the signature share is valid using the following procedure.¶
Inputs: - identifier, Identifier i of the signer. Note identifier will never equal 0. - PK_i, the public key for the ith signer, where PK_i = G.ScalarBaseMult(sk_i), an Element in G - comm_i, pair of Element values in G (hiding_nonce_commitment, binding_nonce_commitment) generated in round one from the ith signer. - sig_share_i, a Scalar value indicating the signature share as produced in round two from the ith signer. - commitment_list = [(j, hiding_nonce_commitment_j, binding_nonce_commitment_j), ...], a list of commitments issued in Round 1 by each signer, where each element in the list indicates the signer identifier j and their two commitment Element values (hiding_nonce_commitment_j, binding_nonce_commitment_j). This list MUST be sorted in ascending order by signer identifier. - group_public_key, public key corresponding to the group signing key, an Element in G. - msg, the message to be signed. Outputs: True if the signature share is valid, and False otherwise. def verify_signature_share(identifier, PK_i, comm_i, sig_share_i, commitment_list, group_public_key, msg): # Compute the binding factors binding_factor_list = compute_binding_factors(commitment_list, msg) binding_factor = binding_factor_for_participant(binding_factor_list, identifier) # Compute the group commitment group_commitment = compute_group_commitment(commitment_list, binding_factor_list) # Compute the commitment share (hiding_nonce_commitment, binding_nonce_commitment) = comm_i comm_share = hiding_nonce_commitment + (binding_nonce_commitment * binding_factor) # Compute the challenge challenge = compute_challenge(group_commitment, group_public_key, msg) # Compute Lagrange coefficient participant_list = participants_from_commitment_list(commitment_list) lambda_i = derive_lagrange_coefficient(identifier, participant_list) # Compute relation values l = G.ScalarBaseMult(sig_share_i) r = comm_share + ((challenge * lambda_i) * PK_i) return l == r¶
If any signature share fails to verify, i.e., if verify_signature_share returns False for
any signer share, the Coordinator MUST abort the protocol for correctness reasons.
Excluding one signer means that their nonce will not be included in the joint response z
and consequently the output signature will not verify.¶
Otherwise, if all signer shares are valid, the Coordinator performs the aggregate
operation
and publishes the resulting signature.¶
Inputs: - group_commitment, the group commitment returned by compute_group_commitment, an Element in G. - sig_shares, a set of signature shares z_i, Scalar values, for each signer, of length NUM_SIGNERS, where MIN_SIGNERS <= NUM_SIGNERS <= MAX_SIGNERS. Outputs: (R, z), a Schnorr signature consisting of an Element R and Scalar z. def aggregate(group_commitment, sig_shares): z = 0 for z_i in sig_shares: z = z + z_i return (group_commitment, z)¶
The output signature (R, z) from the aggregation step MUST be encoded as follows (using notation from Section 3 of [TLS]):¶
struct { opaque R_encoded[Ne]; opaque z_encoded[Ns]; } Signature;¶
Where Signature.R_encoded is G.SerializeElement(R)
and Signature.z_encoded is
G.SerializeScalar(z)
.¶
A FROST ciphersuite must specify the underlying prime-order group details and cryptographic hash function. Each ciphersuite is denoted as (Group, Hash), e.g., (ristretto255, SHA-512). This section contains some ciphersuites.¶
The RECOMMENDED ciphersuite is (ristretto255, SHA-512) Section 6.2. The (Ed25519, SHA-512) ciphersuite is included for backwards compatibility with [RFC8032].¶
The DeserializeElement and DeserializeScalar functions instantiated for a particular prime-order group corresponding to a ciphersuite MUST adhere to the description in Section 3.1. Validation steps for these functions are described for each the ciphersuites below. Future ciphersuites MUST describe how input validation is done for DeserializeElement and DeserializeScalar.¶
Each ciphersuite includes explicit instructions for verifying signatures produced by FROST. Note that these instructions are equivalent to those produced by a single signer.¶
This ciphersuite uses edwards25519 for the Group and SHA-512 for the Hash function H
meant to produce signatures indistinguishable from Ed25519 as specified in [RFC8032].

Signature verification is as specified in Section 5.1.7 of [RFC8032] with the constraint that implementations MUST check the group group equation [8][S]B = [8]R + [8][k]A'. The alternative check [S]B = R + [k]A' is not safe or interoperable in practice.¶

Normally H2 would also include a domain separator, but for backwards compatibility with [RFC8032], it is omitted.¶
Signature verification is as specified in Section 5.2.7 of [RFC8032] with the constraint that implementations MUST check the group group equation [4][S]B = [4]R + [4][k]A'. The alternative check [S]B = R + [k]A' is not safe or interoperable in practice.¶
This ciphersuite uses P-256 for the Group and SHA-256 for the Hash function H
.

Signature verification is as specified in Appendix B.¶
A security analysis of FROST exists in [FROST20] and [Schnorr21]. The protocol as specified in this document assumes the following threat model.¶
(MIN_SIGNERS-1)
corrupted signers. So long as an adversary
corrupts fewer than MIN_SIGNERS
participants, the scheme remains secure against Existential
Unforgeability Under Chosen Message Attack (EUF-CMA) attacks, as defined in [BonehShoup],
Definition 13.2.¶
The protocol as specified in this document does not target the following goals:¶
The rest of this section documents issues particular to implementations or deployments.¶
Nonces generated by each participant in the first round of signing must be sampled uniformly at random and cannot be derived from some deterministic function. This is to avoid replay attacks initiated by other signers, which allows for a complete key-recovery attack. The Coordinator MAY further hedge against nonce reuse attacks by tracking signer nonce commitments used for a given group key, at the cost of additional state.¶
We do not specify what implementations should do when the protocol fails, other than requiring that the protocol abort. Examples of viable failure include when a verification check returns invalid or if the underlying transport failed to deliver the required messages.¶
In some settings, it may be desirable to omit the role of the Coordinator entirely. Doing so does not change the security implications of FROST, but instead simply requires each participant to communicate with all other participants. We loosely describe how to perform FROST signing among signers without this coordinator role. We assume that every participant receives as input from an external source the message to be signed prior to performing the protocol.¶
Every participant begins by performing commit()
as is done in the setting
where a Coordinator is used. However, instead of sending the commitment
to the Coordinator, every participant instead will publish
this commitment to every other participant. Then, in the second round, signers will already have
sufficient information to perform signing. They will directly perform sign
.
All participants will then publish their signature shares to one another. After having
received all signature shares from all other signers, each signer will then perform
verify_signature_share
and then aggregate
directly.¶
The requirements for the underlying network channel remain the same in the setting where all participants play the role of the Coordinator, in that all messages that are exchanged are public and so the channel simply must be reliable. However, in the setting that a player attempts to split the view of all other players by sending disjoint values to a subset of players, the signing operation will output an invalid signature. To avoid this denial of service, implementations may wish to define a mechanism where messages are authenticated, so that cheating players can be identified and excluded.¶
Some applications may require that signers only process messages of a certain structure. For example, in digital currency applications wherein multiple signers may collectively sign a transaction, it is reasonable to require that each signer check the input message to be a syntactically valid transaction. As another example, use of threshold signatures in TLS [TLS] to produce signatures of transcript hashes might require that signers check that the input message is a valid TLS transcript from which the corresponding transcript hash can be derived.¶
In general, input message validation is an application-specific consideration that varies based on the use case and threat model. However, it is RECOMMENDED that applications take additional precautions and validate inputs so that signers do not operate as signing oracles for arbitrary messages.¶
This document was improved based on input and contributions by the Zcash Foundation engineering team.¶
This section contains a routine for verifying Schnorr signatures with validated inputs. Specifically, it assumes that signature R component and public key belong to the prime-order group.¶
prime_order_verify(msg, sig, PK): Inputs: - msg, signed message, a byte string - sig, a tuple (R, z) output from signature generation - PK, public key, an Element Outputs: 1 if signature is valid, and 0 otherwise def prime_order_verify(msg, sig = (R, z), PK): comm_enc = G.SerializeElement(R) pk_enc = G.SerializeElement(PK) challenge_input = comm_enc || pk_enc || msg c = H2(challenge_input) l = G.ScalarBaseMult(z) r = R + (c * PK) return l == r¶
One possible key generation mechanism is to depend on a trusted dealer, wherein the
dealer generates a group secret s
uniformly at random and uses Shamir and Verifiable
Secret Sharing as described in Appendix C.1 and Appendix C.2 to create secret
shares of s
to be sent to all other participants. We highlight at a high level how this
operation can be performed.¶
The dealer is trusted to 1) generate good randomness, and 2) delete secret values after distributing shares to each participant, and 3) keep secret values confidential.¶
Inputs: - s, a group secret, Scalar, that MUST be derived from at least Ns bytes of entropy - MAX_SIGNERS, the number of shares to generate, an integer - MIN_SIGNERS, the threshold of the secret sharing scheme, an integer Outputs: - signer_private_keys, MAX_SIGNERS shares of the secret key s, each a Scalar value. - vss_commitment, a vector commitment of Elements in G, to each of the coefficients in the polynomial defined by secret_key_shares and whose first element is G.ScalarBaseMult(s). def trusted_dealer_keygen(s, MAX_SIGNERS, MIN_SIGNERS): signer_private_keys, coefficients = secret_share_shard(secret_key, MAX_SIGNERS, MIN_SIGNERS) vss_commitment = vss_commit(coefficients): PK = G.ScalarBaseMult(secret_key) return signer_private_keys, vss_commitment¶
It is assumed the dealer then sends one secret key share to each of the NUM_SIGNERS participants, along with vss_commitment
.
After receiving their secret key share and vss_commitment
, participants MUST abort if they do not have the same view of vss_commitment
.
Otherwise, each participant MUST perform vss_verify(secret_key_share_i, vss_commitment)
, and abort if the check fails.
The trusted dealer MUST delete the secret_key and secret_key_shares upon completion.¶
Use of this method for key generation requires a mutually authenticated secure channel between the dealer and participants to send secret key shares, wherein the channel provides confidentiality and integrity. Mutually authenticated TLS is one possible deployment option.¶
In Shamir secret sharing, a dealer distributes a secret Scalar
s
to n
participants
in such a way that any cooperating subset of MIN_SIGNERS
participants can recover the
secret. There are two basic steps in this scheme: (1) splitting a secret into
multiple shares, and (2) combining shares to reveal the resulting secret.¶
This secret sharing scheme works over any field F
. In this specification, F
is
the scalar field of the prime-order group G
.¶
The procedure for splitting a secret into shares is as follows.¶
secret_share_shard(s, MAX_SIGNERS, MIN_SIGNERS): Inputs: - s, secret value to be shared, a Scalar - MAX_SIGNERS, the number of shares to generate, an integer - MIN_SIGNERS, the threshold of the secret sharing scheme, an integer Outputs: - secret_key_shares, A list of MAX_SIGNERS number of secret shares, which is a tuple consisting of the participant identifier and the key share, each of which is a Scalar - coefficients, a vector of the t coefficients which uniquely determine a polynomial f. Errors: - "invalid parameters", if MIN_SIGNERS > MAX_SIGNERS or if MIN_SIGNERS is less than 2 def secret_share_shard(s, MAX_SIGNERS, MIN_SIGNERS): if MIN_SIGNERS > MAX_SIGNERS: raise "invalid parameters" if MIN_SIGNERS < 2: raise "invalid parameters" # Generate random coefficients for the polynomial, yielding # a polynomial of degree (MIN_SIGNERS - 1) coefficients = [s] for i in range(1, MIN_SIGNERS): coefficients.append(G.RandomScalar()) # Evaluate the polynomial for each point x=1,...,n secret_key_shares = [] for x_i in range(1, MAX_SIGNERS + 1): y_i = polynomial_evaluate(x_i, coefficients) secret_key_share_i = (x_i, y_i) secret_key_share.append(secret_key_share_i) return secret_key_shares, coefficients¶
Let points
be the output of this function. The i-th element in points
is
the share for the i-th participant, which is the randomly generated polynomial
evaluated at coordinate i
. We denote a secret share as the tuple (i, points[i])
,
and the list of these shares as shares
.
i
MUST never equal 0
; recall that f(0) = s
, where f
is the polynomial defined in a Shamir secret sharing operation.¶
The procedure for combining a shares
list of length MIN_SIGNERS
to recover the
secret s
is as follows.¶
secret_share_combine(shares): Inputs: - shares, a list of at minimum MIN_SIGNERS secret shares, each a tuple (i, f(i)) Outputs: The resulting secret s, a Scalar, that was previously split into shares Errors: - "invalid parameters", if less than MIN_SIGNERS input shares are provided def secret_share_combine(shares): if len(shares) < MIN_SIGNERS: raise "invalid parameters" s = polynomial_interpolation(shares) return s¶
Feldman's Verifiable Secret Sharing (VSS) builds upon Shamir secret sharing,
adding a verification step to demonstrate the consistency of a participant's
share with a public commitment to the polynomial f
for which the secret s
is the constant term. This check ensure that all participants have a point
(their share) on the same polynomial, ensuring that they can later reconstruct
the correct secret.¶
The procedure for committing to a polynomial f
of degree MIN_SIGNERS-1
is as follows.¶
vss_commit(coeffs): Inputs: - coeffs, a vector of the MIN_SIGNERS coefficients which uniquely determine a polynomial f. Outputs: a commitment vss_commitment, which is a vector commitment to each of the coefficients in coeffs, where each element of the vector commitment is an `Element` in `G`. def vss_commit(coeffs): vss_commitment = [] for coeff in coeffs: A_i = G.ScalarBaseMult(coeff) vss_commitment.append(A_i) return vss_commitment¶
The procedure for verification of a participant's share is as follows.
If vss_verify
fails, the participant MUST abort the protocol, and failure should be investigated out of band.¶
vss_verify(share_i, vss_commitment): Inputs: - share_i: A tuple of the form (i, sk_i), where i indicates the participant identifier, and sk_i the participant's secret key, a secret share of the constant term of f, where sk_i is a Scalar. - vss_commitment: A VSS commitment to a secret polynomial f, a vector commitment to each of the coefficients in coeffs, where each element of the vector commitment is an Element Outputs: 1 if sk_i is valid, and 0 otherwise vss_verify(share_i, commitment) (i, sk_i) = share_i S_i = ScalarBaseMult(sk_i) S_i' = G.Identity() for j in range(0, MIN_SIGNERS): S_i' += pow(i, j) * vss_commitment[j] if S_i == S_i': return 1 return 0¶
We now define how the Coordinator and signer participants can derive group info, which is an input into the FROST signing protocol.¶
derive_group_info(MAX_SIGNERS, MIN_SIGNERS, vss_commitment): Inputs: - MAX_SIGNERS, the number of shares to generate, an integer - MIN_SIGNERS, the threshold of the secret sharing scheme, an integer - vss_commitment: A VSS commitment to a secret polynomial f, a vector commitment to each of the coefficients in coeffs, where each element of the vector commitment is an Element in G. Outputs: - PK, the public key representing the group, an Element. - signer_public_keys, a list of MAX_SIGNERS public keys PK_i for i=1,...,MAX_SIGNERS, where each PK_i is the public key, an Element, for participant i. derive_group_info(MAX_SIGNERS, MIN_SIGNERS, vss_commitment) PK = vss_commitment[0] signer_public_keys = [] for i in range(1, MAX_SIGNERS+1): PK_i = G.Identity() for j in range(0, MIN_SIGNERS): PK_i += pow(i, j) * vss_commitment[j] signer_public_keys.append(PK_i) return PK, signer_public_keys¶
This section contains test vectors for all ciphersuites listed in Section 6.
All Element
and Scalar
values are represented in serialized form and encoded in
hexadecimal strings. Signatures are represented as the concatenation of their
constituent parts. The input message to be signed is also encoded as a hexadecimal
string.¶
