RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 20181. Introduction DNS privacy issues are discussed in [RFC7626]. The specific issues described in [RFC7626] that are most relevant to this document are o Passive attacks that eavesdrop on cleartext DNS transactions on the wire (Section 2.4 of [RFC7626]) and o Active attacks that redirect clients to rogue servers to monitor DNS traffic (Section 2.5.3 of [RFC7626]). Mitigating these attacks increases the privacy of DNS transactions; however, many of the other issues raised in [RFC7626] still apply. Two documents that provide ways to increase DNS privacy between DNS clients and DNS servers are o "Specification for DNS over Transport Layer Security (TLS)" [RFC7858], referred to here as simply "DNS over TLS". o "DNS over Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS)" [RFC8094], referred to here as simply "DNS over DTLS". Note that [RFC8094] is an Experimental specification. Both documents are limited in scope to communications between stub clients and recursive resolvers, and the same scope is applied to this document (see Sections2 and3). The proposals here might be adapted or extended in future to be used for recursive clients and authoritative servers, but this application was out of scope for the DNS PRIVate Exchange (dprive) Working Group charter at the time this document was published. This document specifies two usage profiles (Strict Privacy and Opportunistic Privacy) for DTLS [RFC6347] and TLS [RFC5246] that provide improved levels of mitigation for the attacks described above compared to using only cleartext DNS.Section 5 presents a generalized discussion of usage profiles by separating the usage profile, which is based purely on the security properties it offers the user, from the specific mechanism or mechanisms that are used for DNS server authentication. The profiles described are o A Strict Privacy profile, which requires an encrypted connection and successful authentication of the DNS server; this mitigates both passive eavesdropping and client redirection (at the expense of providing no DNS service if an encrypted, authenticated connection is not available).Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 o An Opportunistic Privacy profile, which will attempt, but does not require, encryption and successful authentication; it therefore provides limited or no mitigation for such attacks but maximizes the chance of DNS service. The above usage profiles attempt authentication of the server using at least one authentication mechanism.Section 6.4 discusses how to combine authentication mechanisms to determine the overall authentication result. Depending on that overall authentication result (and whether encryption is available), the usage profile will determine if the connection should proceed, fall back, or fail. One authentication mechanism is already described in [RFC7858]. [RFC7858] specifies an authentication mechanism for DNS over TLS that is based on Subject Public Key Info (SPKI) in the context of a specific case of a Strict Privacy profile using that single authentication mechanism. Therefore, the "out-of-band key-pinned privacy profile" described in [RFC7858] would qualify as a "Strict Privacy profile" that used SPKI pinning for authentication. This document extends the use of authentication based on SPKI pin sets, so that it is considered a general authentication mechanism that can be used with either DNS-over-(D)TLS usage profile. That is, the mechanism for SPKI pin sets as described in [RFC7858] MAY be used with DNS over (D)TLS. This document also describes a number of additional authentication mechanisms, all of which specify how a DNS client should authenticate a DNS server based on an "authentication domain name". In particular, the following topics are described: o How a DNS client can obtain the combination of an authentication domain name and IP address for a DNS server. SeeSection 7. o What acceptable credentials a DNS server can present to prove its identity for (D)TLS authentication based on a given authentication domain name. SeeSection 8. o How a DNS client can verify that any given credential matches the authentication domain name obtained for a DNS server. SeeSection 8. This document defines a (D)TLS protocol profile for use with DNS; seeSection 9. This profile defines the configuration options and protocol extensions required of both parties to (1) optimize connection establishment and session resumption for transporting DNS and (2) support all currently specified authentication mechanisms.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 20182. Terminology 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 inBCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. Several terms are used specifically in the context of this document: o DNS client: A DNS stub resolver or forwarder. In the case of a forwarder, the term "DNS client" is used to discuss the side that sends queries. o DNS server: A DNS recursive resolver or forwarder. In the case of a forwarder, the term "DNS server" is used to discuss the side that responds to queries. Note that, as used in this document, this term does not apply to authoritative servers. o Privacy-enabling DNS server: A DNS server that implements DNS over TLS [RFC7858] and may optionally implement DNS over DTLS [RFC8094]. The server should also offer at least one of the credentials described inSection 8 and implement the (D)TLS profile described inSection 9. o (D)TLS: Used for brevity; refers to both Transport Layer Security [RFC5246] and Datagram Transport Layer Security [RFC6347]. Specific terms will be used for any text that applies to either protocol alone. o DNS over (D)TLS: Used for brevity; refers to both DNS over TLS [RFC7858] and DNS over DTLS [RFC8094]. Specific terms will be used for any text that applies to either protocol alone. o Authentication domain name: A domain name that can be used to authenticate a privacy-enabling DNS server. Sources of authentication domain names are discussed inSection 7. o SPKI pin sets: [RFC7858] describes the use of cryptographic digests to "pin" public key information in a manner similar to HTTP Public Key Pinning (HPKP) [RFC7469]. An SPKI pin set is a collection of these pins that constrains a DNS server.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 o Authentication information: Information a DNS client may use as the basis of an authentication mechanism. In this context, this information can be either * an SPKI pin set or * an authentication domain name o Reference identifier: A reference identifier as described in [RFC6125], constructed by the DNS client when performing TLS authentication of a DNS server. o Credential: Information available for a DNS server that proves its identity for authentication purposes. Credentials discussed here include * a PKIX certificate * a DNSSEC-validated chain to a TLSA record but may also include SPKI pin sets.3. Scope This document is limited to describing o Usage profiles based on general authentication mechanisms. o The details of domain-name-based authentication of DNS servers by DNS clients (as defined inSection 2). o The (D)TLS profiles needed to support authentication in DNS over (D)TLS. As such, the following topics are out of scope for this document: o Authentication of authoritative servers by recursive resolvers. o Authentication of DNS clients by DNS servers. o The details of how to perform authentication based on SPKI pin sets. This is defined in [RFC7858]. o Any server identifier other than domain names, including IP addresses, organizational names, country of origin, etc.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 20184. Discussion One way to mitigate eavesdropping on cleartext DNS transactions by passive attackers is to encrypt the query (and response). Such encryption typically provides integrity protection as a side effect; this means that on-path attackers cannot simply inject bogus DNS responses. To also mitigate active attackers pretending to be the server, the client must authenticate the (D)TLS connection to the server. This document discusses usage profiles, which provide differing levels of attack mitigation to DNS clients, based on the requirements for authentication and encryption, regardless of the context (for example, which network the client is connected to). A usage profile is a concept distinct from a usage policy or usage model; a usage policy or usage model might dictate which profile should be used in a particular context (enterprise vs. coffee shop), with a particular set of DNS servers or with reference to other external factors. A description of the variety of usage policies is out of scope for this document but may be the subject of future work. The term "privacy-enabling DNS server" is used throughout this document. This is a DNS server that o MUST implement DNS over TLS [RFC7858]. o MAY implement DNS over DTLS [RFC8094]. o SHOULD offer at least one of the credentials described inSection 8. o Implements the (D)TLS profile described inSection 9.5. Usage Profiles A DNS client has a choice of usage profiles available to increase the privacy of DNS transactions. This choice is briefly discussed in both [RFC7858] and [RFC8094]. These usage profiles are o Strict Privacy profile: The DNS client requires both an encrypted and authenticated connection to a privacy-enabling DNS server. A hard failure occurs if this is not available. This requires the client to securely obtain authentication information it can use to authenticate the server. This profile mitigates both passive and active attacks, thereby providing the client with the best available privacy for DNS. This profile is discussed in detail inSection 6.6.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 o Opportunistic Privacy profile: The DNS client uses Opportunistic Security as described in [RFC7435]. * "... the use of cleartext as the baseline communication security policy, with encryption and authentication negotiated and applied to the communication when available." As described in [RFC7435], it might result in * an encrypted and authenticated connection * an encrypted connection * a cleartext connection depending on the fallback logic of the client, the available authentication information, and the capabilities of the DNS server. In all these cases, the DNS client is willing to continue with a connection to the DNS server and perform resolution of queries. The use of Opportunistic Privacy is intended to support incremental deployment of increased privacy with a view to widespread adoption of the Strict Privacy profile. It should be employed when the DNS client might otherwise settle for cleartext; it provides the maximum protection available, depending on the combination of factors described above. If all the configured DNS servers are DNS privacy servers, then it can provide protection against passive attacks and might protect against active ones. Both profiles can include an initial meta-query (performed using Opportunistic Privacy) to obtain the IP address for the privacy- enabling DNS server to which the DNS client will subsequently connect. The rationale for permitting this for the Strict Privacy profile is that requiring such meta-queries to also be performed using the Strict Privacy profile would introduce significant deployment obstacles. However, it should be noted that in this scenario an active attack on the meta-query is possible. Such an attack could result in a Strict Privacy profile client connecting to a server it cannot authenticate (and therefore not obtaining DNS service) or an Opportunistic Privacy client connecting to a server controlled by the attacker. DNSSEC validation can detect the attack on the meta-query, which may result in the client not obtaining DNS service (for both usage profiles), depending on its DNSSEC validation policy. SeeSection 7.2 for more discussion. To compare the two usage profiles, Table 1 below shows a successful Strict Privacy profile alongside the three possible outcomes of an Opportunistic Privacy profile. In the best-case scenario for the Opportunistic Privacy profile (an authenticated and encryptedDickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 connection), it is equivalent to the Strict Privacy profile. In the worst-case scenario, it is equivalent to cleartext. Clients using the Opportunistic Privacy profile SHOULD try for the best case but MAY fall back to the intermediate case and, eventually, the worst- case scenario, in order to obtain a response. One reason to fall back without trying every available privacy-enabling DNS server is if latency is more important than attack mitigation; seeAppendix A. The Opportunistic Privacy profile therefore provides varying protection, depending on what kind of connection is actually used, including no attack mitigation at all. Note that there is no requirement in Opportunistic Security to notify the user regarding what type of connection is actually used; the "detection" described below is only possible if such connection information is available. However, if it is available and the user is informed that an unencrypted connection was used to connect to a server, then the user should assume (detect) that the connection is subject to both active and passive attacks, since the DNS queries are sent in cleartext. This might be particularly useful if a new connection to a certain server is unencrypted when all previous connections were encrypted. Similarly, if the user is informed that an encrypted but unauthenticated connection was used, then the user can detect that the connection may be subject to active attacks. In other words, for the cases where no protection is provided against an attacker (N), it is possible to detect that an attack might be happening (D). This is discussed inSection 6.5. +---------------+------------+------------------+-----------------+ | Usage Profile | Connection | Passive Attacker | Active Attacker | +---------------+------------+------------------+-----------------+ | Strict | A, E | P | P | | Opportunistic | A, E | P | P | | Opportunistic | E | P | N, D | | Opportunistic | | N, D | N, D | +---------------+------------+------------------+-----------------+ P == Protection; N == No protection; D == Detection is possible; A == Authenticated connection; E == Encrypted connection Table 1: Attack Protection by Usage Profile and Type of Attacker The Strict Privacy profile provides the best attack mitigation and therefore SHOULD always be implemented in DNS clients that implement the Opportunistic Privacy profile. A DNS client that implements DNS over (D)TLS SHOULD NOT be configured by default to use only cleartext.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 The choice between the two profiles depends on a number of factors, including which is more important to the particular client: o DNS service, at the cost of no attack mitigation (Opportunistic Privacy) or o Best available attack mitigation, at the potential cost of no DNS service (Strict Privacy). Additionally, the two profiles require varying levels of configuration (or a trusted relationship with a provider) and DNS server capabilities; therefore, DNS clients will need to carefully select which profile to use based on their communication needs. A DNS server that implements DNS over (D)TLS SHOULD provide at least one credential (Section 2) so that those DNS clients that wish to use the Strict Privacy profile are able to do so.5.1. DNS Resolution A DNS client SHOULD select a particular usage profile when resolving a query. A DNS client MUST NOT fall back from Strict Privacy to Opportunistic Privacy during the resolution of a given query, as this could invalidate the protection offered against attackers. It is anticipated that DNS clients will use a particular usage profile for all queries to all configured servers until an operational issue or policy update dictates a change in the profile used.6. Authentication in DNS over (D)TLS This section describes authentication mechanisms and how they can be used in either Strict or Opportunistic Privacy for DNS over (D)TLS.6.1. DNS-over-(D)TLS Startup Configuration Problems Many (D)TLS clients use PKIX authentication [RFC6125] based on an authentication domain name for the server they are contacting. These clients typically first look up the server's network address in the DNS before making this connection. Such a DNS client therefore has a bootstrap problem, as it will typically only know the IP address of its DNS server. In this case, before connecting to a DNS server, a DNS client needs to learn the authentication domain name it should associate with the IP address of a DNS server for authentication purposes. Sources of authentication domain names are discussed inSection 7.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 One advantage of this domain-name-based approach is that it encourages the association of stable, human-recognizable identifiers with secure DNS service providers.6.2. Credential Verification Verification of SPKI pin sets is discussed in [RFC7858]. In terms of domain-name-based verification, once an authentication domain name is known for a DNS server, a choice of authentication mechanisms can be used for credential verification.Section 8 discusses these mechanisms -- namely, PKIX certificate-based authentication and DNS-Based Authentication of Named Entities (DANE) -- in detail. Note that the use of DANE adds requirements on the ability of the client to get validated DNSSEC results. This is discussed in more detail inSection 8.2.6.3. Summary of Authentication Mechanisms This section provides an overview of the various authentication mechanisms. Table 2 below indicates how the DNS client obtains information to use for authentication for each option: either statically via direct configuration or dynamically. Of course, the Opportunistic Privacy profile does not require authentication, and so a client using that profile may choose to connect to a privacy-enabling DNS server on the basis of just an IP address.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 12]

Standards Track [Page 14]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 + DANE options (e.g., matching on entire certificate) - Requires a DNSSEC-validating stub implementation6.4. Combining Authentication Mechanisms This document does not make explicit recommendations about how an authentication mechanism based on SPKI pin sets should be combined with a domain-based mechanism from an operator perspective. However, it can be envisaged that a DNS server operator may wish to make both an SPKI pin set and an authentication domain name available to allow clients to choose which mechanism to use. Therefore, the following text provides guidance on how clients ought to behave if they choose to configure both, as is possible in HPKP [RFC7469]. A DNS client that is configured with both an authentication domain name and an SPKI pin set for a DNS server SHOULD match on both a valid credential for the authentication domain name and a valid SPKI pin set (if both are available) when connecting to that DNS server. In this case, the client SHOULD treat individual SPKI pins as specified inSection 2.6 of [RFC7469] with regard to user-defined trust anchors. The overall authentication result SHOULD only be considered successful if both authentication mechanisms are successful.6.5. Authentication in Opportunistic Privacy An Opportunistic Privacy Profile (based on Opportunistic Security [RFC7435]) that MAY be used for DNS over (D)TLS is described in [RFC7858] and is further specified in this document. DNS clients that issue queries under an Opportunistic Privacy profile and that know authentication information for a given privacy-enabling DNS server SHOULD try to authenticate the server using the mechanisms described here. This is useful for detecting (but not preventing) active attacks, since the fact that authentication information is available indicates that the server in question is a privacy-enabling DNS server to which it should be possible to establish an authenticated and encrypted connection. In this case, whilst a client cannot know the reason for an authentication failure, from a security standpoint the client should consider an active attack in progress and proceed under that assumption. For example, a client that implements a nameserver selection algorithm that preferentially uses nameservers that successfully authenticated (seeSection 5) might not continue to use the failing server if there were alternative servers available.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 15]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 Attempting authentication is also useful for debugging or diagnostic purposes if there are means to report the result. This information can provide a basis for a DNS client to switch to (preferred) Strict Privacy where it is viable, e.g., where all the configured servers support DNS over (D)TLS and successfully authenticate.6.6. Authentication in Strict Privacy To authenticate a privacy-enabling DNS server, a DNS client needs to know authentication information for each server it is willing to contact. This is necessary to protect against active attacks that attempt to redirect clients to rogue DNS servers. A DNS client requiring Strict Privacy MUST use either (1) one of the sources listed inSection 7, to obtain an authentication domain name for the server it contacts or (2) an SPKI pin set as described in [RFC7858]. A DNS client requiring Strict Privacy MUST only attempt to connect to DNS servers for which at least one piece of authentication information is known. The client MUST use the available verification mechanisms described inSection 8 to authenticate the server and MUST abort connections to a server when no verification mechanism succeeds. With Strict Privacy, the DNS client MUST NOT commence sending DNS queries until at least one of the privacy-enabling DNS servers becomes available. A privacy-enabling DNS server may be temporarily unavailable when configuring a network. For example, for clients on networks that require registration through web-based login (a.k.a. "captive portals"), such registration may rely on DNS interception and spoofing. Techniques such as those used by dnssec-trigger [dnssec-trigger] MAY be used during network configuration, with the intent to transition to the designated privacy-enabling DNS servers after captive-portal registration. If using a Strict Privacy profile, the system MUST alert by some means that the DNS is not private during such a bootstrap operation.6.7. Implementation GuidanceSection 9 describes the (D)TLS profile for DNS over (D)TLS. Additional considerations relating to general implementation guidelines are discussed in bothSection 11 andAppendix A.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 16]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 20187. Sources of Authentication Domain Names7.1. Full Direct Configuration DNS clients may be directly and securely provisioned with the authentication domain name of each privacy-enabling DNS server -- for example, using a client-specific configuration file or API. In this case, direct configuration for a DNS client would consist of both an IP address and an authentication domain name for each DNS server that were obtained via an out-of-band mechanism.7.2. Direct Configuration of ADN Only A DNS client may be configured directly and securely with only the authentication domain name of each of its privacy-enabling DNS servers -- for example, using a client-specific configuration file or API. A DNS client might learn of a default recursive DNS resolver from an untrusted source (such as DHCP's DNS Recursive Name Server option [RFC3646]). It can then use meta-queries performed using an Opportunistic Privacy profile to an untrusted recursive DNS resolver to establish the IP address of the intended privacy-enabling DNS resolver by doing a lookup of A/AAAA records. A DNSSEC-validating client SHOULD apply the same validation policy to the A/AAAA meta-queries as it does to other queries. A client that does not validate DNSSEC SHOULD apply the same policy (if any) to the A/AAAA meta-queries as it does to other queries. Private DNS resolution can now be done by the DNS client against the pre-configured privacy- enabling DNS resolver, using the IP address obtained from the untrusted DNS resolver. A DNS client so configured that successfully connects to a privacy- enabling DNS server MAY choose to locally cache the server host IP addresses in order to not have to repeat the meta-query.7.3. Dynamic Discovery of ADN This section discusses the general case of a DNS client discovering both the authentication domain name and IP address dynamically. At the time of this writing, this is not possible by any standard means. However, since, for example, a future DHCP extension could (in principle) provide this mechanism, the required security properties of such mechanisms are outlined here.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 17]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 When using a Strict Privacy profile, the dynamic discovery technique used as a source of authentication domain names MUST be considered secure and trustworthy. This requirement does not apply when using an Opportunistic Privacy profile, given the security expectation of that profile.7.3.1. DHCP In the typical case today, a DHCP server [RFC2131] [RFC3315] provides a list of IP addresses for DNS resolvers (seeSection 3.8 of [RFC2132]) but does not provide an authentication domain name for the DNS resolver, thus preventing the use of most of the authentication methods described here (all of those that are based on a mechanism with ADN; see Table 2). This document does not specify or request any DHCP extension to provide authentication domain names. However, if one is developed in future work, the issues outlined inSection 8 of [RFC7227] should be taken into account, as should the security considerations discussed inSection 23 of [RFC3315]. This document does not attempt to describe secured and trusted relationships to DHCP servers, as this is purely a DHCP issue (and still open, at the time of this writing). Whilst some implementation work is in progress to secure IPv6 connections for DHCP, IPv4 connections have received little or no implementation attention in this area.8. Credential Verification Based on Authentication Domain Name8.1. Authentication Based on PKIX Certificate When a DNS client configured with an authentication domain name connects to its configured DNS server over (D)TLS, the server may present it with a PKIX certificate. In order to ensure proper authentication, DNS clients MUST verify the entire certification path per [RFC5280]. The DNS client additionally uses validation techniques as described in [RFC6125] to compare the domain name to the certificate provided. A DNS client constructs one reference identifier for the server based on the authentication domain name: a DNS-ID, which is simply the authentication domain name itself. If the reference identifier is found (as described inSection 6 of [RFC6125]) in the PKIX certificate's subjectAltName extension, the DNS client should accept the certificate for the server.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 18]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 A compliant DNS client MUST only inspect the certificate's subjectAltName extension for the reference identifier. In particular, it MUST NOT inspect the Subject field itself.8.2. DANE DANE [RFC6698] provides various mechanisms using DNSSEC to anchor trust for certificates and raw public keys. However, this requires the DNS client to have an authentication domain name (which must be obtained via a trusted source) for the DNS privacy server. This section assumes a solid understanding of both DANE [RFC6698] and DANE operations [RFC7671]. A few pertinent issues covered in these documents are outlined here as useful pointers, but familiarity with both of these documents in their entirety is expected. Note that [RFC6698] says Clients that validate the DNSSEC signatures themselves MUST use standard DNSSEC validation procedures. Clients that rely on another entity to perform the DNSSEC signature validation MUST use a secure mechanism between themselves and the validator. Note that [RFC7671] covers the following topics: o Sections4.1 ("Opportunistic Security and PKIX Usages") and 14 ("Security Considerations") of [RFC7671], which both discuss the use of schemes based on trust anchors and end entities (PKIX-TA(0) and PKIX-EE(1), respectively) for Opportunistic Security. oSection 5 ("Certificate-Usage-Specific DANE Updates and Guidelines") of [RFC7671] -- specifically,Section 5.1 of [RFC7671], which outlines the combination of certificate usage DANE-EE(3) and selector SPKI(1) with raw public keys [RFC7250].Section 5.1 of [RFC7671] also discusses the security implications of this mode; for example, it discusses key lifetimes and specifies that validity period enforcement is based solely on the TLSA RRset properties for this case. oSection 13 ("Operational Considerations") of [RFC7671], which discusses TLSA TTLs and signature validity periods. The specific DANE record for a DNS privacy server would take the form _853._tcp.[authentication-domain-name] for TLS _853._udp.[authentication-domain-name] for DTLSDickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 19]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 20188.2.1. Direct DNS Meta-Queries The DNS client MAY choose to perform the DNS meta-queries to retrieve the required DANE records itself. The DNS meta-queries for such DANE records MAY use the Opportunistic Privacy profile or be in the clear to avoid trust recursion. The records MUST be validated using DNSSEC as described in [RFC6698].8.2.2. TLS DNSSEC Chain Extension The DNS client MAY offer the TLS extension described in [TLS-DNSSEC-Chain-Ext]. If the DNS server supports this extension, it can provide the full chain to the client in the handshake. If the DNS client offers the TLS DNSSEC chain extension, it MUST be capable of validating the full DNSSEC authentication chain down to the leaf. If the supplied DNSSEC chain does not validate, the client MUST ignore the DNSSEC chain and validate only via other supplied credentials.9. (D)TLS Protocol Profile This section defines the (D)TLS protocol profile of DNS over (D)TLS. Clients and servers MUST adhere to the (D)TLS implementation recommendations and security considerations of [RFC7525], except with respect to the (D)TLS version. Since encryption of DNS using (D)TLS is a greenfield deployment, DNS clients and servers MUST implement only (D)TLS 1.2 or later. For example, implementing (D)TLS 1.3 [TLS-1.3] [DTLS-1.3] is also an option. Implementations MUST NOT offer or provide TLS compression, since compression can leak significant amounts of information, especially to a network observer capable of forcing the user to do an arbitrary DNS lookup in the style of the Compression Ratio Info-leak Made Easy (CRIME) attacks [CRIME].Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 20]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018 Implementations compliant with this profile MUST implement the following items: o TLS session resumption without server-side state [RFC5077], which eliminates the need for the server to retain cryptographic state for longer than necessary. (This statement updates [RFC7858].) o Raw public keys [RFC7250], which reduce the size of the ServerHello and can be used by servers that cannot obtain certificates (e.g., DNS servers on private networks). A client MUST only indicate support for raw public keys if it has an SPKI pin set pre-configured (for interoperability reasons). Implementations compliant with this profile SHOULD implement the following items: o TLS False Start [RFC7918], which reduces round trips by allowing the TLS second flight of messages (ChangeCipherSpec) to also contain the (encrypted) DNS query. o The Cached Information Extension [RFC7924], which avoids transmitting the server's certificate and certificate chain if the client has cached that information from a previous TLS handshake. Guidance specific to TLS is provided in [RFC7858], and guidance specific to DTLS is provided in [RFC8094].10. IANA Considerations This document does not require any IANA actions.11. Security Considerations Security considerations discussed in [RFC7525], [RFC8094], and [RFC7858] apply to this document. DNS clients SHOULD implement (1) support for the mechanisms described inSection 8.2 and (2) offering a configuration option that limits authentication to using only those mechanisms (i.e., with no fallback to pure PKIX-based authentication) such that authenticating solely via the PKIX infrastructure can be avoided.Dickinson, et al. Standards Track [Page 21]
RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 201811.1. Countermeasures to DNS Traffic Analysis This section makes suggestions for measures that can reduce the ability of attackers to infer information pertaining to encrypted client queries by other means (e.g., via an analysis of encrypted traffic size or via monitoring of the unencrypted traffic from a DNS recursive resolver to an authoritative server). DNS-over-(D)TLS clients and servers SHOULD implement the following relevant DNS extensions: o Extension Mechanisms for DNS (EDNS(0)) padding [RFC7830], which allows encrypted queries and responses to hide their size, making analysis of encrypted traffic harder. Guidance on padding policies for EDNS(0) is provided in [EDNS0-Pad-Policies]. DNS-over-(D)TLS clients SHOULD implement the following relevant DNS extensions: o Privacy election per [RFC7871] ("Client Subnet in DNS Queries"). If a DNS client does not include an edns-client-subnet EDNS0 option with SOURCE PREFIX-LENGTH set to 0 in a query, the DNS server may potentially leak client address information to the upstream authoritative DNS servers. A DNS client ought to be able to inform the DNS resolver that it does not want any address information leaked, and the DNS resolver should honor that request.12. References12.1.

RFC 8310 Usage Profiles for DNS over (D)TLS March 2018Appendix A. Server Capability Probing and Caching by DNS Clients This section presents a non-normative discussion of how DNS clients might probe for, and cache capabilities of, privacy-enabling DNS servers. Deployment of both DNS over TLS and DNS over DTLS will be gradual. Not all servers will support one or both of these protocols, and the well-known port might be blocked by some middleboxes. Clients will be expected to keep track of servers that support DNS over TLS and/or DNS over DTLS, as well as those that have been previously authenticated. If no server capability information is available, then (unless otherwise specified by the configuration of the DNS client) DNS clients that implement both TLS and DTLS should try to authenticate using both protocols before failing or falling back to an unauthenticated or cleartext connection. DNS clients using an Opportunistic Privacy profile should try all available servers (possibly in parallel) in order to obtain an authenticated and encrypted connection before falling back. (RATIONALE: This approach can increase latency while discovering server capabilities but maximizes the chance of sending the query over an authenticated and encrypted connection.)Dickinson, et al.
