Abstract

In the past, Mandatory Access Control (MAC) systems have used very rigid policies that were implemented in particular protocols and platforms. As MAC systems become more widely deployed, additional flexibility in mechanism and policy will be required. While traditional trusted systems implemented Multi-Level Security (MLS) and integrity models, modern systems have expanded to include such technologies as type enforcement. Due to the wide range of policies and mechanisms that need to be accommodated, it is unlikely that the use of a single security label format and model will be viable.

To allow multiple MAC mechanisms and label formats to co-exist in a network, this document creates a registry of label format specifications. This registry contains label format identifiers and provides for the association of each such identifier with a corresponding extensive document outlining the exact syntax and use of the particular label format.

Abstract

   In the past, Mandatory Access Control (MAC) systems have used very
   rigid policies that were implemented in particular protocols and
   platforms.  As MAC systems become more widely deployed, additional
   flexibility in mechanism and policy will be required.  While
   traditional trusted systems implemented Multi-Level Security (MLS)
   and integrity models, modern systems have expanded to include such
   technologies as type enforcement.  Due to the wide range of policies
   and mechanisms that need to be accommodated, it is unlikely that the
   use of a single security label format and model will be viable.

   To allow multiple MAC mechanisms and label formats to co-exist in a
   network, this document creates a registry of label format
   specifications.  This registry contains label format identifiers and
   provides for the association of each such identifier with a
   corresponding extensive document outlining the exact syntax and use
   of the particular label format.

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc7569">RFC 7569</a>                  Labeled NFS Registry                 July 2015</span>


<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>.  Introduction</span>

    With the acceptance of security labels in several mainstream
    operating systems, the need to communicate labels between these
    systems becomes more important.  In a typical client-and-server
    scenario, the client request to the server acts as a subject trying
    to access an object on the server [<a href="./rfc7204" title=""Requirements for Labeled NFS"">RFC7204</a>].  Unfortunately, these
    systems are diverse enough that attempts at establishing one common
    label format have been unsuccessful.  This is because systems
    implement different Mandatory Access Control (MAC) models, which
    typically do not share any common ground.

    One solution might be to define a single label format that consists
    of the union of the requirements of all MAC models/implementations,
    known at a given time.  This approach is not desirable, because it
    introduces an environment where either (1) many MAC models would
    have blank fields for many of the label's components or (2) many
    implementations would ignore altogether many of the values that are
    present.  The resulting complexity would be likely to result in a
    confusing situation in which the interaction of fields that are
    derived from different MAC models is never clearly specified and the
    addition of new models or extensions of existing models is unduly
    difficult.

    An additional consideration is that if a policy authority or
    identifier field is specified in the label format, it would require
    a robust description that would encompass multiple MAC models where
    an implementation would lock policy administration into the
    described model.

    Ideally, a mechanism to address this problem should allow the most
    flexibility possible in terms of policy administration while
    providing a specification that is sufficient to allow for
    implementation of the label format and understanding of the
    semantics of the label.  This means that the label format
    specification would ideally contain a syntactic description of the
    label format and a description of the semantics for each component
    in the label.  This allows protocols to specify the type of label
    and label semantics that it requires while leaving policy and policy
    administration to the individual organizations using the protocol in
    their environment.

    Policy administration within an organization is a difficult problem.
    This should not be made even more difficult by having to request
    permission from external entities when crafting new policy or just
    making department specific modifications to existing policies.  The
    policy authority field would allow a label format specification to
    specify a scheme for policy administration without forcing it on all

    users of security labels.  However, by agreeing to implement a
    particular label format specification, the protocol agrees to that
    policy administration mechanism when processing labels of that type.

    This document creates a registry of label format specifications to
    allow multiple MAC mechanisms and label formats to co-exist in a
    network.  While the initial use of this registry is for the Network
    File System (NFS) protocol, it might also be referenced and used by
    other IETF protocols in the future.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-2" href="#section-2">2</a>.  Definitions</span>

   Label Format Specifier:  an identifier used by the client to
      establish the syntactic format of the security label and the
      semantic meaning of its components.

   Label Format Specification:  a reference to a stable, public document
      that specifies the label format.

   Multi-Level Security (MLS):  a traditional model where subjects are
      given a security level (Unclassified, Secret, Top Secret, etc.)
      and objects are given security labels that mandate the access of
      the subject to the object (see [<a href="#ref-BL73" title=""Secure Computer Systems: Mathematical Foundations and Model"">BL73</a>] and [<a href="./rfc2401" title=""Security Architecture for the Internet Protocol"">RFC2401</a>]).

      (Although <a href="./rfc2401">RFC 2401</a> has been obsoleted by <a href="./rfc4301">RFC 4301</a>, <a href="./rfc2401">RFC 2401</a> is
      still the definitive reference for MLS as discussed in this
      document.)

   object:  a passive resource within the system that we wish to
      protect.  Objects can be entities such as files, directories,
      pipes, sockets, and many other system resources relevant to the
      protection of the system state.

   subject:  an active entity, usually a process, user, or client, that
      is requesting access to an object.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.1" href="#section-3.1">3.1</a>.  IP Security Option (IPSO), Basic Security Option (BSO)</span>

   The "IP Security Option (IPSO)" label format is defined in [<a href="./rfc1108" title=""U.S. Department of Defense Security Options for the Internet Protocol"">RFC1108</a>].
   IANA has assigned IPv4 Option 130 to the IPSO Basic Security Option
   (BSO).  IPSO is the only IPv4 sensitivity label option implemented in
   commercial IP routers.  IPSO BSO continues to have widespread
   implementation in hosts, and widespread deployment.  For the purposes
   of this document, only the BSO labels in Table 1 on Page 3 of
   [<a href="./rfc1108" title=""U.S. Department of Defense Security Options for the Internet Protocol"">RFC1108</a>] are used.

   In some locales, the BSO value "(Reserved 2)" is used for marking
   information that is considered "Restricted" by local policy, where
   "Restricted" is less sensitive than "Confidential" but more sensitive
   than "Unclassified".

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.2" href="#section-3.2">3.2</a>.  Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO)</span>

   The "Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO)" label format is
   documented in [<a href="#ref-CIPSO" title=""Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO 2.2)"">CIPSO</a>] and in [<a href="#ref-FIPS-188" title=""Standard Security Labels for Information Transfer"">FIPS-188</a>].  While [<a href="#ref-CIPSO" title=""Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO 2.2)"">CIPSO</a>] is long
   expired, it is widely supported in deployed MLS systems that support
   IPv4.  IANA has assigned IPv4 option number 134 to CIPSO.  CIPSO is
   defined ONLY as an IPv4 option.  IANA has never assigned any IPv6
   option value to CIPSO.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.3" href="#section-3.3">3.3</a>.  Common Architecture Label IPv6 Security Option (CALIPSO)</span>

   The "Common Architecture Label IPv6 Security Option (CALIPSO)" label
   format is specified in [<a href="./rfc5570" title=""Common Architecture Label IPv6 Security Option (CALIPSO)"">RFC5570</a>] and is defined for IPv6.  As noted
   in <a href="./rfc5570#section-10">Section 10 of [RFC5570]</a>, CALIPSO is a direct derivative of the
   IPv4 "Son of IPSO" (SIPSO); therefore, CALIPSO is NOT derived from
   CIPSO in any way.

   The Flux Advanced Security Kernel (FLASK) [<a href="#ref-FLASK99" title=""The Flask Security Architecture: System Support for Diverse Security Policies"">FLASK99</a>] is an
   implementation of an architecture to provide flexible support for
   security policies.  Section 2.1 of [<a href="#ref-FLASK99b" title=""Assurance in the Fluke Microkernel Formal Security Policy Model"">FLASK99b</a>] summarizes the
   architecture of FLASK and describes:

   1.  the interactions between a subsystem that enforces security
       policy decisions and a subsystem that makes those decisions.

   2.  the requirements on the components within each subsystem.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-4" href="#section-4">4</a>.  Security Considerations</span>

   This document defines a mechanism to associate the Label Format
   Specifier identifier with a document outlining the syntax and format
   of a label.  There are no security considerations for such an
   association.  The label specification documents referenced by each
   registration entry should state security considerations for the label
   mechanism it specifies.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-5" href="#section-5">5</a>.  IANA Considerations</span>

   This section provides guidance to the Internet Assigned Numbers
   Authority (IANA) regarding the creation of a new registry in
   accordance with [<a href="./rfc5226" title="">RFC5226</a>].

   Per this document, IANA has created a new registry called "Security
   Label Format Selection Registry".  The new registry has the following
   fields:

   Label Format Specifier:  An integer that maps to a particular label
      format, e.g., the CALIPSO label format defined by [<a href="./rfc5570" title=""Common Architecture Label IPv6 Security Option (CALIPSO)"">RFC5570</a>].  The
      namespace of this identifier has the range of 0..65535.

   Label Description:  A human-readable ASCII [<a href="./rfc20" title=""ASCII format for network interchange"">RFC20</a>] text string that
      describes the label format, e.g., "Common Architecture Label IPv6
      Security Option (CALIPSO)".  The length of this field is limited
      to 128 bytes.

   Status:  A short ASCII text string indicating the status of an entry
      in the registry.  The status field for most entries should have
      the value "active".  In the case where a label format selection
      entry is obsolete, the status field of the obsoleted entry should
      be "obsoleted by entry NNN".

   Label Format Specification:  A reference to a stable, public document
      that specifies the label format, e.g., a URL to [<a href="./rfc5570" title=""Common Architecture Label IPv6 Security Option (CALIPSO)"">RFC5570</a>].

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-5.1" href="#section-5.1">5.1</a>.  Initial Registry</span>

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-5.2" href="#section-5.2">5.2</a>.  Adding a New Entry to the Registry</span>

   A label format specification document is required to add a new entry
   to the "Security Label Format Selection Registry".  If the label
   format document is inside the RFC path, then the IANA Considerations
   section of the label format document should clearly reference the
   "Security Label Format Selection Registry" and request allocation of
   a new entry.  The well-known IANA policy Specification Required, as
   defined in <a href="./rfc5226#section-4.1">Section 4.1 of [RFC5226]</a>, will be used to handle such
   requests.  Note that the "Specification Required" policy implies that
   this process requires a Designated Expert, i.e., adding a new entry
   to this registry requires both a published label format specification
   and a Designated Expert review.

   In reviewing the published label format specification, the Designated
   Expert should consider whether or not the specification provides
   sufficient semantics for the object and subject labels to enforce the
   MAC model and policy administration when deployed within an
   organization.  Another consideration is if the label format allows a
   correct and complete implementation of the protocol to process and
   enforce labels as a policy administration mechanism.  Finally, to
   reduce interoperability issues, the reviewer must determine if the
   new label format specification has clearly defined syntax and
   semantics for the proposed new labels.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-5.3" href="#section-5.3">5.3</a>.  Obsoleting a Label Format Specifier</span>

   In the case where a label format selector number is assigned to a
   label format and the label format specification is changed later, a
   new selector assignment should be requested.  The same Specification
   Required IANA policy applies to such requests.  The IANA
   Considerations section of the updated label format specification
   should be explicit regarding which old label selector assignment it
   obsoletes.  Below is an example of an obsoleted entry in the

   A request to modify either the Description or the published label
   format specification will also require the Specification Required
   IANA policy to be applied.  The Designated Expert reviewer will need
   to determine if the published label format specification either
   obsoletes the Label Format Specifier or updates the label syntax and/
   or model.  If the Label Format Specifier is obsoleted, then the
   reviewer will follow the process defined in <a href="#section-5.3">Section 5.3</a>.  Otherwise,
   for the update of the label syntax and/or the model, the reviewer
   will approve the change.
