      <t>This document specifies how Automated Certificate Management Environment (ACME) can be used by a client to obtain a certificate for a subdomain identifier from a certification authority. This Additionally, this document specifies how a client can fulfill a challenge against an ancestor domain but may not need to fulfill a challenge against the explicit subdomain if certification authority policy allows issuance of the subdomain certificate without explicit subdomain ownership proof.</t>

      <t>ACME <xref target="RFC8555"/> defines a protocol that a certification authority (CA) and an applicant can use to automate the process of domain name ownership validation and X.509v3 (PKIX) <xref target="RFC5280"/> certificate issuance. The CA is the ACME server and the applicant is the ACME client, and the client uses the ACME protocol to request certificate issuance from the server. This document outlines how ACME can be used to issue subdomain certificates, certificates without requiring the ACME client to explicitly fulfill an ownership challenge against the subdomain identifiers - -- the ACME client need only fulfill an ownership challenge against an ancestor domain identifier.</t>

        <dd>An ordered list of zero or more octets that makes up a

  <t>Fully-Qualified labels.</dd>
        <dt>Fully-Qualified Domain Name (FQDN):  This (FQDN):</dt>
        <dd>This is often just a clear way
    of saying the same thing as "domain name of a node", as outlined
    above.  However, the term is ambiguous.  Strictly speaking, a
    fully-qualified domain name would include every label, including
    the zero-length label of the root: such a name would be written
    "www.example.net."
    <tt>www.example.net.</tt> (note the terminating dot).  But, because every
    name eventually shares the common root, names are often written
    relative to the root (such as "www.example.net") <tt>www.example.net</tt>) and are still
    called "fully qualified".  This term first appeared in <xref target="RFC0819"/>.
    In this document, names are often written relative to the root.</t>
</list></t> root.</dd>
      </dl>
      <t>The following definition for "subdomain" is taken from DNS Terminology "DNS Terminology" <xref target="RFC8499"/> and reproduced here, however here; however, the definition is ambiguous and is further clarified below:</t>

<t><list style="symbols">
  <t>Subdomain: "A
      <dl newline="true">
        <dt>Subdomain:</dt>
        <dd>"A domain is a subdomain of another domain if it is
    contained within that domain.  This relationship can be tested by
    seeing if the subdomain's name ends with the containing domain's
    name."  (Quoted from <xref section="3.1" sectionFormat="of" target="RFC1034"/>.) For example, in the
    host name "nnn.mmm.example.com", <tt>nnn.mmm.example.com</tt>, both "mmm.example.com" <tt>mmm.example.com</tt> and
    "nnn.mmm.example.com"
    <tt>nnn.mmm.example.com</tt> are subdomains of "example.com". <tt>example.com</tt>.  Note that
    the comparisons here are done on whole labels; that is,
    "ooo.example.com"
    <tt>ooo.example.com</tt> is not a subdomain of "oo.example.com".</t>
</list></t> <tt>oo.example.com</tt>.</dd>
      </dl>
      <t>The definition is ambiguous as it appears to allow a subdomain to include the given domain. That is, "mmm.example.com" <tt>mmm.example.com</tt> ends with "mmm.example.com" <tt>mmm.example.com</tt> and thus is a subdomain of itself. This document interprets the first sentence of the above definition as meaning "A "a domain is a subdomain of a different domain if it is contained within that different domain.". domain". A domain cannot be a subdomain of itself. For example,  "mmm.example.com"  <tt>mmm.example.com</tt> is not a subdomain of "mmm.example.com".</t> <tt>mmm.example.com</tt>.</t>

      <name>ACME Issuance of Subdomain Certificates</name>
      <t>As noted in the previous section, ACME <xref target="RFC8555"/> does not mandate that the "identifier" <tt>identifier</tt> in a newOrder request matches the "identifier" <tt>identifier</tt> in authorization objects. This means that the ACME specification does not preclude an ACME server processing newOrder requests and issuing certificates for a subdomain without requiring a challenge to be fulfilled against that explicit subdomain.</t>
      <t>ACME server policy could allow issuance of certificates for a subdomain to a client where the client only has to fulfill an authorization challenge for an ancestor domain of that subdomain. This For example, this allows for a flow where a client proves ownership of, for example, "example.org" of <tt>example.org</tt> and then successfully obtains a certificate for "sub.example.org".</t> <tt>sub.example.org</tt>.</t>
      <t>ACME server policy is out of scope of this document, document; however, some commentary is provided in <xref target="acme-server-policy-considerations"/>.</t>
      <t>Clients need a mechanism to instruct the ACME server that they are requesting authorization for all subdomains subordinate to the specified domain, as opposed to just requesting authorization for an explicit domain identifier. Clients need a mechanism to do this in both newAuthz and newOrder requests. ACME servers need a mechanism to indicate to clients that authorization objects are valid for all subdomains under the specified domain. These are described in this section.</t>

        <name>Authorization Object</name>
        <t>ACME (<xref section="7.1.4" sectionFormat="comma" target="RFC8555"/>) defines the authorization object. This document defines a new "subdomainAuthAllowed" <tt>subdomainAuthAllowed</tt> field for the authorization object.

      </ul>
      <t>Therefore, all Security Considerations in ACME in the following areas are equally applicable to ACME for Subdomains:</t>

<t><list style="symbols">
  <t>Threat Model</t>
  <t>Integrity of Authorizations</t>
  <t>Denial-of-Service Considerations</t>

  <t>CA Forgery</li>
        <li>CA Policy Considerations</t>
</list></t> Considerations</li>
      </ul>
      <t>The only exception is that in order to satisfy goal (1) above, this draft document assumes that control over a domain may imply control over a subdomain, and therefore subdomain; therefore, authorization for certificate issuance for the former may imply authorization for certificate issuance for the latter.
In many ecosystems, this is a safe assumption, especially because control over the domain can often be leveraged to successfully demonstrate control over subdomains anyway, for example example, by temporarily modifying DNS for the subdomain to point to a server the ancestor domain owner controls, rendering the distinction moot.  For example, the CA/Browser Forum Baseline Requirements may consider control of an ancestor domain sufficient for issuance of certificates for subdomains, but only if specific processes and procedures are used for validating ownership of the ancestor domain.</t>
      <t>In ecosystems where control of an ancestor domain may not imply control over subdomains or authorization for issuance of certificates for subdomains, a more complicated threat analysis and server policy might be needed.</t>
      <t>Some additional comments on ACME server policy are given later in this section.</t>
      <section anchor="client-account-security"><name>Client anchor="client-account-security">
        <name>Client Account Security</name>
        <t>There may be scenarios were a client wishes to deactivate an authorization object for an ancestor domain, domain or deactivate its account completely. For example, a client may want to do this if an account key is compromised, compromised or if a an authorization object covering domains subordinate to an ancestor domain is no longer needed. The client can deactivate an authorization using the mechanism specified in <xref section="7.5.2" sectionFormat="comma" target="RFC8555"/> and can deactivate an account using the mechanism specified in <xref section="7.3.6" sectionFormat="comma" target="RFC8555"/>.</t>
      </section>
      <section anchor="subdomain-determination"><name>Subdomain anchor="subdomain-determination">
        <name>Subdomain Determination</name>
        <t>The <xref target="RFC8499"/> definition of a subdomain is reproduced in <xref target="terminology"/>. When comparing domains to determine if one is a subdomain of the other, it is important to compare entire labels, labels and not rely on a string prefix match. Relying on string prefix matches may yield incorrect results.</t>

      <section anchor="acme-server-policy-considerations"><name>ACME anchor="acme-server-policy-considerations">
        <name>ACME Server Policy Considerations</name>
        <t>The ACME for Subdomains and the ACME specifications do not mandate any specific ACME server or CA policies, or any specific use cases for issuance of certificates. For example, an ACME server could be used:</t>

<t><list style="symbols">
  <t>to
        <ul spacing="normal">
          <li>to issue Web PKI certificates where the ACME server must comply with CA/Browser Forum <xref target="CAB"></xref> Baseline Requirements.</t>
  <t>as Requirements <xref target="CAB"/>.</li>
          <li>as a Private CA for issuance of certificates within an organization. The organization could enforce whatever policies they desire on the ACME server.</t>
  <t>for server.</li>
          <li>for issuance of IoT Internet of Things (IoT) device certificates. There are currently no IoT device certificate policies that are generally enforced across the industry. Organizations issuing IoT device certificates can enforce whatever policies they desire on the ACME server.</t>
</list></t> server.</li>
        </ul>
        <t>ACME server policy could specify whether:</t>

<t><list style="symbols">
  <t>issuance
        <ul spacing="normal">
          <li>issuance of subdomain certificates is allowed based on proof of ownership of an ancestor domain</t>

          <li>issuance of subdomain certificates is allowed, but only for a specific set of ancestor domains</t>
  <t>DNS based proof of ownership, domains.</li>
          <li>DNS-based or HTTP based HTTP-based proof of ownership, or both, are allowed</t>
</list></t> allowed.</li>
        </ul>
        <t>The CA policy considerations listed in <xref section="10.5" sectionFormat="comma" target="RFC8555"/> are equally applicable here. These include, but are not limited to:</t>

<t><list style="symbols">

        <ul spacing="normal">

<abstract><t>Public Key Infrastructure using X.509 (PKIX) certificates are used for a number of purposes, the most significant of which is the authentication of domain names.  Thus, certification authorities (CAs) in the Web PKI are trusted to verify that an applicant for a certificate legitimately represents the domain name(s) in the certificate.  As of this writing, this verification is done through a collection of ad hoc mechanisms.  This document describes a protocol that a CA and an applicant can use to automate the process of verification and certificate issuance.  The protocol also provides facilities for other certificate management functions, such as certificate revocation.</t></abstract>
