Introduction A JSON Web Key (JWK) is a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) [RFC7159] data structure that represents a cryptographic key. This specification also defines a JWK Set JSON data structure that represents a set of JWKs. Cryptographic algorithms and identifiers for use with this specification are described in the separate JSON Web Algorithms (JWA) [JWA] specification and IANA registries established by that specification. Goals for this specification do not include representing new kinds of certificate chains, representing new kinds of certified keys, or replacing X.509 certificates. JWKs and JWK Sets are used in the JSON Web Signature [JWS] and JSON Web Encryption [JWE] specifications. Names defined by this specification are short because a core goal is for the resulting representations to be compact. 1.1. Notational Conventions 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 "Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels" [RFC2119]. The interpretation should only be applied when the terms appear in all capital letters. BASE64URL(OCTETS) denotes the base64url encoding of OCTETS, per Section 2 of [JWS]. Jones Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 UTF8(STRING) denotes the octets of the UTF-8 [RFC3629] representation of STRING, where STRING is a sequence of zero or more Unicode [UNICODE] characters. ASCII(STRING) denotes the octets of the ASCII [RFC20] representation of STRING, where STRING is a sequence of zero or more ASCII characters. The concatenation of two values A and B is denoted as A || B. 2. Terminology The terms "JSON Web Signature (JWS)", "Base64url Encoding", "Collision-Resistant Name", "Header Parameter", and "JOSE Header" are defined by the JWS specification [JWS]. The terms "JSON Web Encryption (JWE)", "Additional Authenticated Data (AAD)", "JWE Authentication Tag", "JWE Ciphertext", "JWE Compact Serialization", "JWE Encrypted Key", "JWE Initialization Vector", and "JWE Protected Header" are defined by the JWE specification [JWE]. The terms "Ciphertext", "Digital Signature", "Message Authentication Code (MAC)", and "Plaintext" are defined by the "Internet Security Glossary, Version 2" [RFC4949]. These terms are defined by this specification: JSON Web Key (JWK) A JSON object that represents a cryptographic key. The members of the object represent properties of the key, including its value. JWK Set A JSON object that represents a set of JWKs. The JSON object MUST have a "keys" member, which is an array of JWKs. Jones Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 3. Example JWK This section provides an example of a JWK. The following example JWK declares that the key is an Elliptic Curve [DSS] key, it is used with the P-256 Elliptic Curve, and its x and y coordinates are the base64url-encoded values shown. A key identifier is also provided for the key. {"kty":"EC", "crv":"P-256", "x":"f83OJ3D2xF1Bg8vub9tLe1gHMzV76e8Tus9uPHvRVEU", "y":"x_FEzRu9m36HLN_tue659LNpXW6pCyStikYjKIWI5a0", "kid":"Public key used in JWS spec Appendix A.3 example" } Additional example JWK values can be found in Appendix A. 4. JSON Web Key (JWK) Format A JWK is a JSON object that represents a cryptographic key. The members of the object represent properties of the key, including its value. This JSON object MAY contain whitespace and/or line breaks before or after any JSON values or structural characters, in accordance with Section 2 of RFC 7159 [RFC7159]. This document defines the key parameters that are not algorithm specific and, thus, common to many keys. In addition to the common parameters, each JWK will have members that are key type specific. These members represent the parameters of the key. Section 6 of the JSON Web Algorithms (JWA) [JWA] specification defines multiple kinds of cryptographic keys and their associated members. The member names within a JWK MUST be unique; JWK parsers MUST either reject JWKs with duplicate member names or use a JSON parser that returns only the lexically last duplicate member name, as specified in Section 15.12 (The JSON Object) of ECMAScript 5.1 [ECMAScript]. Additional members can be present in the JWK; if not understood by implementations encountering them, they MUST be ignored. Member names used for representing key parameters for different keys types need not be distinct. Any new member name should either be registered in the IANA "JSON Web Key Parameters" registry established by Section 8.1 or be a value that contains a Collision-Resistant Name. Jones Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 4.1. "kty" (Key Type) Parameter The "kty" (key type) parameter identifies the cryptographic algorithm family used with the key, such as "RSA" or "EC". "kty" values should either be registered in the IANA "JSON Web Key Types" registry established by [JWA] or be a value that contains a Collision- Resistant Name. The "kty" value is a case-sensitive string. This member MUST be present in a JWK. A list of defined "kty" values can be found in the IANA "JSON Web Key Types" registry established by [JWA]; the initial contents of this registry are the values defined in Section 6.1 of [JWA]. The key type definitions include specification of the members to be used for those key types. Members used with specific "kty" values can be found in the IANA "JSON Web Key Parameters" registry established by Section 8.1. 4.2. "use" (Public Key Use) Parameter The "use" (public key use) parameter identifies the intended use of the public key. The "use" parameter is employed to indicate whether a public key is used for encrypting data or verifying the signature on data. Values defined by this specification are: o "sig" (signature) o "enc" (encryption) Other values MAY be used. The "use" value is a case-sensitive string. Use of the "use" member is OPTIONAL, unless the application requires its presence. When a key is used to wrap another key and a public key use designation for the first key is desired, the "enc" (encryption) key use value is used, since key wrapping is a kind of encryption. The "enc" value is also to be used for public keys used for key agreement operations. Additional "use" (public key use) values can be registered in the IANA "JSON Web Key Use" registry established by Section 8.2. Registering any extension values used is highly recommended when this specification is used in open environments, in which multiple organizations need to have a common understanding of any extensions used. However, unregistered extension values can be used in closed environments, in which the producing and consuming organization will always be the same. Jones Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 4.3. "key_ops" (Key Operations) Parameter The "key_ops" (key operations) parameter identifies the operation(s) for which the key is intended to be used. The "key_ops" parameter is intended for use cases in which public, private, or symmetric keys may be present. Its value is an array of key operation values. Values defined by this specification are: o "sign" (compute digital signature or MAC) o "verify" (verify digital signature or MAC) o "encrypt" (encrypt content) o "decrypt" (decrypt content and validate decryption, if applicable) o "wrapKey" (encrypt key) o "unwrapKey" (decrypt key and validate decryption, if applicable) o "deriveKey" (derive key) o "deriveBits" (derive bits not to be used as a key) (Note that the "key_ops" values intentionally match the "KeyUsage" values defined in the Web Cryptography API [W3C.CR-WebCryptoAPI-20141211] specification.) Other values MAY be used. The key operation values are case- sensitive strings. Duplicate key operation values MUST NOT be present in the array. Use of the "key_ops" member is OPTIONAL, unless the application requires its presence. Multiple unrelated key operations SHOULD NOT be specified for a key because of the potential vulnerabilities associated with using the same key with multiple algorithms. Thus, the combinations "sign" with "verify", "encrypt" with "decrypt", and "wrapKey" with "unwrapKey" are permitted, but other combinations SHOULD NOT be used. Additional "key_ops" (key operations) values can be registered in the IANA "JSON Web Key Operations" registry established by Section 8.3. The same considerations about registering extension values apply to the "key_ops" member as do for the "use" member. The "use" and "key_ops" JWK members SHOULD NOT be used together; however, if both are used, the information they convey MUST be consistent. Applications should specify which of these members they use, if either is to be used by the application. Jones Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 4.4. "alg" (Algorithm) Parameter The "alg" (algorithm) parameter identifies the algorithm intended for use with the key. The values used should either be registered in the IANA "JSON Web Signature and Encryption Algorithms" registry established by [JWA] or be a value that contains a Collision- Resistant Name. The "alg" value is a case-sensitive ASCII string. Use of this member is OPTIONAL. 4.5. "kid" (Key ID) Parameter The "kid" (key ID) parameter is used to match a specific key. This is used, for instance, to choose among a set of keys within a JWK Set during key rollover. The structure of the "kid" value is unspecified. When "kid" values are used within a JWK Set, different keys within the JWK Set SHOULD use distinct "kid" values. (One example in which different keys might use the same "kid" value is if they have different "kty" (key type) values but are considered to be equivalent alternatives by the application using them.) The "kid" value is a case-sensitive string. Use of this member is OPTIONAL. When used with JWS or JWE, the "kid" value is used to match a JWS or JWE "kid" Header Parameter value. 4.6. "x5u" (X.509 URL) Parameter The "x5u" (X.509 URL) parameter is a URI [RFC3986] that refers to a resource for an X.509 public key certificate or certificate chain [RFC5280]. The identified resource MUST provide a representation of the certificate or certificate chain that conforms to RFC 5280 [RFC5280] in PEM-encoded form, with each certificate delimited as specified in Section 6.1 of RFC 4945 [RFC4945]. The key in the first certificate MUST match the public key represented by other members of the JWK. The protocol used to acquire the resource MUST provide integrity protection; an HTTP GET request to retrieve the certificate MUST use TLS [RFC2818] [RFC5246]; the identity of the server MUST be validated, as per Section 6 of RFC 6125 [RFC6125]. Use of this member is OPTIONAL. While there is no requirement that optional JWK members providing key usage, algorithm, or other information be present when the "x5u" member is used, doing so may improve interoperability for applications that do not handle PKIX certificates [RFC5280]. If other members are present, the contents of those members MUST be semantically consistent with the related fields in the first certificate. For instance, if the "use" member is present, then it MUST correspond to the usage that is specified in the certificate, Jones Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 when it includes this information. Similarly, if the "alg" member is present, it MUST correspond to the algorithm specified in the certificate. 4.7. "x5c" (X.509 Certificate Chain) Parameter The "x5c" (X.509 certificate chain) parameter contains a chain of one or more PKIX certificates [RFC5280]. The certificate chain is represented as a JSON array of certificate value strings. Each string in the array is a base64-encoded (Section 4 of [RFC4648] -- not base64url-encoded) DER [ITU.X690.1994] PKIX certificate value. The PKIX certificate containing the key value MUST be the first certificate. This MAY be followed by additional certificates, with each subsequent certificate being the one used to certify the previous one. The key in the first certificate MUST match the public key represented by other members of the JWK. Use of this member is OPTIONAL. As with the "x5u" member, optional JWK members providing key usage, algorithm, or other information MAY also be present when the "x5c" member is used. If other members are present, the contents of those members MUST be semantically consistent with the related fields in the first certificate. See the last paragraph of Section 4.6 for additional guidance on this. 4.8. "x5t" (X.509 Certificate SHA-1 Thumbprint) Parameter The "x5t" (X.509 certificate SHA-1 thumbprint) parameter is a base64url-encoded SHA-1 thumbprint (a.k.a. digest) of the DER encoding of an X.509 certificate [RFC5280]. Note that certificate thumbprints are also sometimes known as certificate fingerprints. The key in the certificate MUST match the public key represented by other members of the JWK. Use of this member is OPTIONAL. As with the "x5u" member, optional JWK members providing key usage, algorithm, or other information MAY also be present when the "x5t" member is used. If other members are present, the contents of those members MUST be semantically consistent with the related fields in the referenced certificate. See the last paragraph of Section 4.6 for additional guidance on this. Jones Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 4.9. "x5t#S256" (X.509 Certificate SHA-256 Thumbprint) Parameter The "x5t#S256" (X.509 certificate SHA-256 thumbprint) parameter is a base64url-encoded SHA-256 thumbprint (a.k.a. digest) of the DER encoding of an X.509 certificate [RFC5280]. Note that certificate thumbprints are also sometimes known as certificate fingerprints. The key in the certificate MUST match the public key represented by other members of the JWK. Use of this member is OPTIONAL. As with the "x5u" member, optional JWK members providing key usage, algorithm, or other information MAY also be present when the "x5t#S256" member is used. If other members are present, the contents of those members MUST be semantically consistent with the related fields in the referenced certificate. See the last paragraph of Section 4.6 for additional guidance on this. 5. JWK Set Format A JWK Set is a JSON object that represents a set of JWKs. The JSON object MUST have a "keys" member, with its value being an array of JWKs. This JSON object MAY contain whitespace and/or line breaks. The member names within a JWK Set MUST be unique; JWK Set parsers MUST either reject JWK Sets with duplicate member names or use a JSON parser that returns only the lexically last duplicate member name, as specified in Section 15.12 ("The JSON Object") of ECMAScript 5.1 [ECMAScript]. Additional members can be present in the JWK Set; if not understood by implementations encountering them, they MUST be ignored. Parameters for representing additional properties of JWK Sets should either be registered in the IANA "JSON Web Key Set Parameters" registry established by Section 8.4 or be a value that contains a Collision-Resistant Name. Implementations SHOULD ignore JWKs within a JWK Set that use "kty" (key type) values that are not understood by them, that are missing required members, or for which values are out of the supported ranges. 5.1. "keys" Parameter The value of the "keys" parameter is an array of JWK values. By default, the order of the JWK values within the array does not imply an order of preference among them, although applications of JWK Sets can choose to assign a meaning to the order for their purposes, if desired. Jones Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 6. String Comparison Rules The string comparison rules for this specification are the same as those defined in Section 5.3 of [JWS]. 7. Encrypted JWK and Encrypted JWK Set Formats Access to JWKs containing non-public key material by parties without legitimate access to the non-public information MUST be prevented. This can be accomplished by encrypting the JWK when potentially observable by such parties to prevent the disclosure of private or symmetric key values. The use of an Encrypted JWK, which is a JWE with the UTF-8 encoding of a JWK as its plaintext value, is recommended for this purpose. The processing of Encrypted JWKs is identical to the processing of other JWEs. A "cty" (content type) Header Parameter value of "jwk+json" MUST be used to indicate that the content of the JWE is a JWK, unless the application knows that the encrypted content is a JWK by another means or convention, in which case the "cty" value would typically be omitted. JWK Sets containing non-public key material will also need to be encrypted under these circumstances. The use of an Encrypted JWK Set, which is a JWE with the UTF-8 encoding of a JWK Set as its plaintext value, is recommended for this purpose. The processing of Encrypted JWK Sets is identical to the processing of other JWEs. A "cty" (content type) Header Parameter value of "jwk-set+json" MUST be used to indicate that the content of the JWE is a JWK Set, unless the application knows that the encrypted content is a JWK Set by another means or convention, in which case the "cty" value would typically be omitted. See Appendix C for an example encrypted JWK. 8. IANA Considerations The following registration procedure is used for all the registries established by this specification. The registration procedure for values is Specification Required [RFC5226] after a three-week review period on the jose-reg-review@ietf.org mailing list, on the advice of one or more Designated Experts. However, to allow for the allocation of values prior to publication, the Designated Experts may approve registration once they are satisfied that such a specification will be published. Registration requests sent to the mailing list for review should use an appropriate subject (e.g., "Request to register JWK parameter: example"). Jones Standards Track [Page 11]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 Within the review period, the Designated Experts will either approve or deny the registration request, communicating this decision to the review list and IANA. Denials should include an explanation and, if applicable, suggestions as to how to make the request successful. Registration requests that are undetermined for a period longer than 21 days can be brought to the IESG's attention (using the iesg@ietf.org mailing list) for resolution. Criteria that should be applied by the Designated Experts include determining whether the proposed registration duplicates existing functionality, whether it is likely to be of general applicability or useful only for a single application, and whether the registration description is clear. IANA must only accept registry updates from the Designated Experts and should direct all requests for registration to the review mailing list. It is suggested that multiple Designated Experts be appointed who are able to represent the perspectives of different applications using this specification, in order to enable broadly informed review of registration decisions. In cases where a registration decision could be perceived as creating a conflict of interest for a particular Expert, that Expert should defer to the judgment of the other Experts. 8.1. JSON Web Key Parameters Registry This section establishes the IANA "JSON Web Key Parameters" registry for JWK parameter names. The registry records the parameter name, the key type(s) that the parameter is used with, and a reference to the specification that defines it. It also records whether the parameter conveys public or private information. This section registers the parameter names defined in Section 4. The same JWK parameter name may be registered multiple times, provided that duplicate parameter registrations are only for key-type-specific JWK parameters; in this case, the meaning of the duplicate parameter name is disambiguated by the "kty" value of the JWK containing it. 8.1.1. Registration Template Parameter Name: The name requested (e.g., "kid"). Because a core goal of this specification is for the resulting representations to be compact, it is RECOMMENDED that the name be short -- not to exceed 8 characters without a compelling reason to do so. This name is case sensitive. Names may not match other registered names in a case-insensitive manner unless the Designated Experts state that Jones Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 there is a compelling reason to allow an exception. However, matching names may be registered, provided that the accompanying sets of "kty" values that the parameter name is used with are disjoint; for the purposes of matching "kty" values, "*" matches all values. Parameter Description: Brief description of the parameter (e.g., "Key ID"). Used with "kty" Value(s): The key type parameter value(s) that the parameter name is to be used with, or the value "*" if the parameter value is used with all key types. Values may not match other registered "kty" values in a case-insensitive manner when the registered parameter name is the same (including when the parameter name matches in a case- insensitive manner) unless the Designated Experts state that there is a compelling reason to allow an exception. Parameter Information Class: Registers whether the parameter conveys public or private information. Its value must be either Public or Private. Change Controller: For Standards Track RFCs, list the "IESG". For others, give the name of the responsible party. Other details (e.g., postal address, email address, home page URI) may also be included. Specification Document(s): Reference to the document or documents that specify the parameter, preferably including URIs that can be used to retrieve copies of the documents.

Security Considerations All of the security issues that are pertinent to any cryptographic application must be addressed by JWS/JWE/JWK agents. Among these issues are protecting the user's asymmetric private and symmetric secret keys and employing countermeasures to various attacks. Jones Standards Track [Page 19]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 9.1. Key Provenance and Trust One should place no more trust in the data cryptographically secured by a key than in the method by which it was obtained and in the trustworthiness of the entity asserting an association with the key. Any data associated with a key that is obtained in an untrusted manner should be treated with skepticism. See Section 10.3 of [JWS] for security considerations on key origin authentication. In almost all cases, applications make decisions about whether to trust a key based on attributes bound to the key, such as names, roles, and the key origin, rather than based on the key itself. When an application is deciding whether to trust a key, there are several ways that it can bind attributes to a JWK. Two example mechanisms are PKIX [RFC5280] and JSON Web Token (JWT) [JWT]. For instance, the creator of a JWK can include a PKIX certificate in the JWK's "x5c" member. If the application validates the certificate and verifies that the JWK corresponds to the subject public key in the certificate, then the JWK can be associated with the attributes in the certificate, such as the subject name, subject alternative names, extended key usages, and its signature chain. As another example, a JWT can be used to associate attributes with a JWK by referencing the JWK as a claim in the JWT. The JWK can be included directly as a claim value or the JWT can include a TLS- secured URI from which to retrieve the JWK value. Either way, an application that gets a JWK via a JWT claim can associate it with the JWT's cryptographic properties and use these and possibly additional claims in deciding whether to trust the key. The security considerations in Section 12.3 of XML DSIG 2.0 [W3C.NOTE-xmldsig-core2-20130411] about the strength of a digital signature depending upon all the links in the security chain also apply to this specification. The TLS Requirements in Section 8 of [JWS] also apply to this specification, except that the "x5u" JWK member is the only feature defined by this specification using TLS. 9.2. Preventing Disclosure of Non-public Key Information Private and symmetric keys MUST be protected from disclosure to unintended parties. One recommended means of doing so is to encrypt JWKs or JWK Sets containing them by using the JWK or JWK Set value as the plaintext of a JWE. Of course, this requires that there be a Jones Standards Track [Page 20]
RFC 7517 JSON Web Key (JWK) May 2015 secure way to obtain the key used to encrypt the non-public key information to the intended party and a secure way for that party to obtain the corresponding decryption key. The security considerations in RFC 3447 [RFC3447] and RFC 6030 [RFC6030] about protecting private and symmetric keys, key usage, and information leakage also apply to this specification. 9.3. RSA Private Key Representations and Blinding The RSA Key blinding operation [Kocher], which is a defense against some timing attacks, requires all of the RSA key values "n", "e", and "d". However, some RSA private key representations do not include the public exponent "e", but only include the modulus "n" and the private exponent "d". This is true, for instance, of the Java RSAPrivateKeySpec API, which does not include the public exponent "e" as a parameter. So as to enable RSA key blinding, such representations should be avoided. For Java, the RSAPrivateCrtKeySpec API can be used instead. Section 8.2.2(i) of the "Handbook of Applied Cryptography" [HAC] discusses how to compute the remaining RSA private key parameters, if needed, using only "n", "e", and "d". 9.4. Key Entropy and Random Values See Section 10.1 of [JWS] for security considerations on key entropy and random values. 10. References 10.1.
