Abstract
The IPsec series of protocols makes use of various cryptographic
algorithms in order to provide security services. The Encapsulating
Security Payload (ESP) and the Authentication Header (AH) provide two
mechanisms for protecting data being sent over an IPsec Security
Association (SA). To ensure interoperability between disparate
implementations, it is necessary to specify a set of mandatory-to-
implement algorithms to ensure that there is at least one algorithm
that all implementations will have available. This document defines
the current set of mandatory-to-implement algorithms for ESP and AH
as well as specifying algorithms that should be implemented because
they may be promoted to mandatory at some future time.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>. Introduction</span>
The Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and the Authentication
Header (AH) provide two mechanisms for protecting data being sent
over an IPsec Security Association (SA) [<a href="./rfc4301" title=""Security Architecture for the Internet Protocol"">RFC4301</a>], [<a href="./rfc4302" title=""IP Authentication Header"">RFC4302</a>]. To
ensure interoperability between disparate implementations, it is
necessary to specify a set of mandatory-to-implement algorithms to
ensure that there is at least one algorithm that all implementations
will have available. This document defines the current set of
mandatory-to-implement algorithms for ESP and AH as well as
specifying algorithms that should be implemented because they may be
promoted to mandatory at some future time.
The nature of cryptography is that new algorithms surface
continuously and existing algorithms are continuously attacked. An
algorithm believed to be strong today may be demonstrated to be weak
tomorrow. Given this, the choice of mandatory-to-implement algorithm
should be conservative so as to minimize the likelihood of it being
compromised quickly. Thought should also be given to performance
considerations as many uses of IPsec will be in environments where
performance is a concern.
Finally, we need to recognize that the mandatory-to-implement
algorithm(s) may need to change over time to adapt to the changing
world. For this reason, the selection of mandatory-to-implement
algorithms is not included in the main IPsec, ESP, or AH
specifications. It is instead placed in this document. As the
choice of algorithm changes, only this document should need to be
updated.
Ideally, the mandatory-to-implement algorithm of tomorrow should
already be available in most implementations of IPsec by the time it
is made mandatory. To facilitate this, we will attempt to identify
such algorithms (as they are known today) in this document. There is
no guarantee that the algorithms that we (today) believe may be
mandatory in the future will in fact become so. All algorithms known
today are subject to cryptographic attack and may be broken in the
future.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-2" href="#section-2">2</a>. Requirements Terminology</span>
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 [<a href="./rfc2119" title=""Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels"">RFC2119</a>].

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc4835">RFC 4835</a> Cryptographic Algorithms ESP and AH April 2007</span>
We define some additional terms here:
SHOULD+ This term means the same as SHOULD. However, it is
likely that an algorithm marked as SHOULD+ will be
promoted at some future time to be a MUST.
SHOULD- This term means the same as SHOULD. However, it is
likely that an algorithm marked as SHOULD- will be
deprecated to a MAY or worse in a future version of
this document.
MUST- This term means the same as MUST. However, we
expect that at some point in the future this algorithm
will no longer be a MUST.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-3" href="#section-3">3</a>. Algorithm Selection</span>
For IPsec implementations to interoperate, they must support one or
more security algorithms in common. This section specifies the
security algorithm implementation requirements for standards-
conformant ESP and AH implementations. The security algorithms
actually used for any particular ESP or AH security association are
determined by a negotiation mechanism, such as the Internet Key
Exchange (IKE [<a href="./rfc2409" title=""The Internet Key Exchange (IKE)"">RFC2409</a>], [<a href="./rfc4306" title=""Internet Key Exchange (IKEv2) Protocol"">RFC4306</a>]) or pre-establishment.
Of course, additional standard and proprietary algorithms beyond
those listed below can be implemented.
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.1" href="#section-3.1">3.1</a>. Encapsulating Security Payload</span>
The implementation conformance requirements for security algorithms
for ESP are given in the tables below. See <a href="#section-2">Section 2</a> for definitions
of the values in the "Requirement" column.
<span class="h4"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.1.1" href="#section-3.1.1">3.1.1</a>. ESP Encryption and Authentication Algorithms</span>
These tables list encryption and authentication algorithms for the
IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload protocol.
Requirement Encryption Algorithm (notes)

Requirement Authentication Algorithm (notes)
----------- -----------------------------

MAY NULL (1)
MAY HMAC-MD5-96 [<a href="./rfc2403" title=""The Use of HMAC-MD5-96 within ESP and AH"">RFC2403</a>] (4)
Notes:
(1) Since ESP encryption is optional, support for the "NULL"
algorithm is required to maintain consistency with the way
services are negotiated. Note that while authentication and
encryption can each be "NULL", they MUST NOT both be "NULL"
[<a href="./rfc4301" title=""Security Architecture for the Internet Protocol"">RFC4301</a>].
(2) DES, with its small key size and publicly demonstrated and
open-design special-purpose cracking hardware, is of questionable
security for general use.
(3) Weaknesses have become apparent in SHA-1 [<a href="#ref-SHA1-COLL" title=""Update on SHA-1"">SHA1-COLL</a>]; however,
these should not affect the use of SHA1 with HMAC.
(4) Weaknesses have become apparent in MD5 [<a href="#ref-MD5-COLL" title=""Finding MD5 Collisions - a Toy For a Notebook"">MD5-COLL</a>]; however,
these should not affect the use of MD5 with HMAC.
<span class="h4"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.1.2" href="#section-3.1.2">3.1.2</a>. ESP Combined Mode Algorithms</span>
As specified in [<a href="./rfc4303" title=""IP Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)"">RFC4303</a>], combined mode algorithms are supported
that provide both confidentiality and authentication services.
Support of such algorithms will require proper structuring of ESP
implementations. Under many circumstances, combined mode algorithms
provide significant efficiency and throughput advantages. Although
there are no suggested or required combined algorithms at this time,
AES-CCM [<a href="./rfc4309" title=""Using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) CCM Mode with IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)"">RFC4309</a>] and AES-GCM [<a href="./rfc4106" title=""The Use of Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) in IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)"">RFC4106</a>] are of interest. AES-CCM has
been adopted as the preferred mode in IEEE 802.11 [<a href="#ref-802.11i" title=""LAN/MAN Specific Requirements Part 11: Wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY) specifications"">802.11i</a>], and AES-
GCM has been adopted as the preferred mode in IEEE 802.1ae [<a href="#ref-802.1ae" title=""Media Access Control (MAC) Security"">802.1ae</a>].
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.2" href="#section-3.2">3.2</a>. Authentication Header</span>
The implementation conformance requirements for security algorithms
for AH are given below. See <a href="#section-2">Section 2</a> for definitions of the values
in the "Requirement" column. As you would suspect, all of these
algorithms are authentication algorithms.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-4" href="#section-4">4</a>. Security Considerations</span>
The security of cryptography-based systems depends on both the
strength of the cryptographic algorithms chosen and the strength of
the keys used with those algorithms. The security also depends on
the engineering and administration of the protocol used by the system
to ensure that there are no non-cryptographic ways to bypass the
security of the overall system.
This document concerns itself with the selection of cryptographic
algorithms for the use of ESP and AH, specifically with the selection
of mandatory-to-implement algorithms. The algorithms identified in
this document as "MUST implement" or "SHOULD implement" are not known
to be broken at the current time, and cryptographic research so far
leads us to believe that they will likely remain secure into the
foreseeable future. However, this is not necessarily forever. We
would therefore expect that new revisions of this document will be
issued from time to time that reflect the current best practice in
this area.

[<a id="ref-RFC2402">RFC2402</a>] and [<a href="./rfc2406" title=""IP Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)"">RFC2406</a>] defined the IPsec Authentication Header and
IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload. Each specified the
implementation requirements for cryptographic algorithms for their
respective protocols. They have now been replaced with [<a href="./rfc4302" title=""IP Authentication Header"">RFC4302</a>] and
[<a href="./rfc4303" title=""IP Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)"">RFC4303</a>], which do not specify cryptographic algorithm
implementation requirements, and this document, which specifies such
requirements for both [<a href="./rfc4302" title=""IP Authentication Header"">RFC4302</a>] and [<a href="./rfc4303" title=""IP Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP)"">RFC4303</a>].

Note:
(1) The IETF deprecated the use of single DES years ago and has
not included it in any new standard for some time (see IESG note
on the first page of [<a href="./rfc2407" title=""The Internet IP Security Domain of Interpretation for ISAKMP"">RFC2407</a>]). [<a href="./rfc4305" title=""Cryptographic Algorithm Implementation Requirements for Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and Authentication Header (AH)"">RFC4305</a>] represented the first
standards-track recognition of that deprecation by specifying that
implementations SHOULD NOT provide single DES. The US Government
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has formally
recognized the weakness of single DES by a notice published
[<a href="#ref-DES-WDRAW" title=""Announcing Proposed Withdrawal of Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) for the Data Encryption Standard (DES) and Request for Comments"">DES-WDRAW</a>] proposing to withdraw it as a US Government Standard.
Triple DES remains approved by both the IETF and NIST.

This document obsoletes [<a href="./rfc4305" title=""Cryptographic Algorithm Implementation Requirements for Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and Authentication Header (AH)"">RFC4305</a>]. The document incorporates changes
for the support for the NULL Authentication Algorithm making the
support from a MUST to a MAY. This change is made to make this
document consistent with [<a href="./rfc4301" title=""Security Architecture for the Internet Protocol"">RFC4301</a>]. Text for SHA-1 collision attacks
as well as the future use of AES-GCM and AES-CCM is added.
