RFC 6482 - A Profile for Route Origin Authorizations (ROAs)

Every requirement this repository extracted from RFC 6482, the tests bound to it, and what a reader has verified about them. This summary is not enrolled.

Overview

Positive

what Ze has

Tested both ways0.0%0 of 9 gated MUSTs

a positive test proves Ze does what the requirement demands and a negative one proves it refuses what the requirement forbids

One polarity plus reason0.0%0 of 9 gated MUSTs

the requirement admits no counter-case, so one polarity plus a recorded reason is the whole proof available for it

One polarity, unexcused0.0%0 of 9 gated MUSTs

one direction is tested, the other is neither tested nor excused, and nothing states which

Partial proof; remaining gap0.0%0 of 9 gated MUSTs

scoped tests exist; the remaining obligation is unmet or unproven, with zero whole-requirement credit

No test at all0.0%0 of 9 gated MUSTs

no test carries the requirement id, whether or not a gap states why

Proven by a recorded break0.0%0 of 0 tagged units

a red was observed once under a recorded procedure, and the unit, the claim and the producer it rested on still hash to what was recorded. The break is not re-run. A test pair is not a proof until one has been observed

Neutral

measures that are neither good news nor bad

MUSTs declared9of 10 this summary declares

MUST-level requirements this summary DECLARES. The gate holds none of them, because this RFC is not enrolled (third-party), so every share below reads what the summary records rather than what the gate enforces

Out of scope9of 9 gated MUSTs

an obligation that does not bind Ze. A {not-applicable} annotation says it never bound; a {feature-declined} annotation says its condition is an optional feature Ze does not offer, and quotes the RFC sentence that makes it optional. Scope, not coverage: it stays in the denominator every share on this page is taken over

Not applicable100.0%9 of 9 gated MUSTs

a {not-applicable} annotation says the obligation does not bind Ze, so no test is owed for it. It stays in the denominator every share here is taken over

Met below Ze0.0%0 of 9 gated MUSTs

a {lower-layer} annotation says a layer under Ze performs the behavior, on state Ze installs into that layer, and names the producer that installs it. The obligation binds Ze and is met; Ze proves none of it, because its own boundary carries no value the behavior reads

Optional feature declined0.0%0 of 9 gated MUSTs

a {feature-declined} annotation says the obligation is conditional on a feature the RFC makes optional and Ze does not offer, and it quotes the sentence that makes it optional. The condition is false, so nothing is owed and nothing is missing. It stays in the denominator every share here is taken over

The 8 shares marked as a part above are the whole of the 9 gated MUSTs: they add to 100%. Proven by a recorded break is a share of TAGGED UNITS, a different population, so it is not one of them.

How to read the colors

A color names what the measure MEANS, not how well Ze scores on it. Green is a good outcome at any value, red is a bad one, and neither a population nor a scope count is an outcome, so both take no color. The number under the label is what says how far Ze has got.

CardTone hereWhy that color
MUSTs declared neutral no color: a population is a scale, and a larger one is neither good news nor bad. It is the accounting total
Out of scope neutral no color: an obligation that never bound Ze is neither an achievement nor a failure, and counting it either way would be a claim
Tested both ways ok green at every value: a test pair is the outcome this gate exists to produce, and the share under the label is what says how far Ze has got
One polarity plus reason ok green at every value: where no counter-case exists, one polarity IS the complete answer, and a recorded reason is what the gate demands beside it
One polarity, unexcused ok green at zero, RED above it: half a proof with no reason for the other half
Partial proof; remaining gap ok green at zero, RED above it: a tested clause cannot prove the whole requirement
No test at all ok green at zero, RED above it: a binding obligation nothing exercises is a claim with nothing behind it, whether or not a reason is stated
Not applicable neutral no color: an obligation that never bound Ze is neither an achievement nor a failure, and counting it either way would be a claim
Met below Ze neutral no color: an obligation met below Ze is neither a test Ze wrote nor work Ze owes, and the two green shares above are what says how much Ze proves itself
Optional feature declined neutral no color: an obligation whose condition Ze never meets is neither an achievement nor a failure. The absent FEATURE is disclosed on the RFC's own status row, as an implementation gap a later scope decision can revisit
Proven by a recorded break ok green at every value: an observed break is the outcome the discrimination gate exists to produce. The denominator is TAGGED UNITS, not obligations, so this share is not one of the parts above
Audit verdicts warn RED on the first weak, wrong or unimplemented verdict, amber while a verdict is no longer current or a gated MUST is unjudged, green when every one is judged sound and current

Enrolment

Not enrolled (third-party, a layer under or beside Ze performs the document and Ze holds no Go code for it, so the reason beside this kind names the component that does): The RPKI cache validates the CMS-signed ROA object. Ze consumes an already-validated payload over the RTR protocol, internal/component/bgp/plugins/rpki/rtr_pdu.go.

What the public ledger says

{not-applicable}: ze is neither a ROA producer nor a relying-party validator; it consumes Validated ROA Payloads over the RTR protocol (RFC 8210; internal/component/bgp/plugins/rpki/rtr_pdu.go parsePrefixPDU builds VRPs) and never parses or constructs the RFC 6482 CMS-signed ROA object, so it never inspects the ROA object's version field

RFC6482-2-1This OID MUST appear both within the eContentType in the encapContentInfo object as well as the content-type signed attribute in the signerInfo object (see [RFC6488]). (Section 2)

RFC6482-3.3-2If present, the maxLength MUST be an integer greater than or equal to the length of the accompanying prefix, and less than or equal to the length (in bits) of an IP address in the address family (32 for IPv4 and 128 for IPv6). (Section 3.3)
MUST 3.3

{not-applicable}: ze is neither a ROA producer nor a relying-party validator; it consumes Validated ROA Payloads over the RTR protocol (RFC 8210; internal/component/bgp/plugins/rpki/rtr_pdu.go parsePrefixPDU builds VRPs) and never parses or constructs the RFC 6482 CMS-signed ROA object; the equivalent maxLength sanity (maxLen within prefixLen..AF-max) is enforced on the RTR PDU wire format per RFC 8210 at internal/component/bgp/plugins/rpki/rtr_pdu.go:125, not on a ROA object

RFC6482-4-1Before a relying party can use a ROA to validate a routing announcement, the relying party MUST first validate the ROA. (Section 4)
MUST 4
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze is neither a ROA producer nor a relying-party validator; it consumes Validated ROA Payloads over the RTR protocol (RFC 8210; internal/component/bgp/plugins/rpki/rtr_pdu.go parsePrefixPDU builds VRPs) and never parses or constructs the RFC 6482 CMS-signed ROA object; validating the ROA before use is a relying-party duty performed by the RPKI cache, and ze consumes only the already-validated VRPs

RFC6482-4-2To validate a ROA, the relying party MUST perform all the validation checks specified in [RFC6488] as well as the following additional ROA-specific validation step. (Section 4)
MUST 4
positiveno testno positive test

RFC6482-4-3To validate a ROA, the relying party MUST perform all the validation checks specified in [RFC6488] as well as the following additional ROA-specific validation step. o The IP address delegation extension [RFC3779] is present in the end-entity (EE) certificate (contained within the ROA), and each IP address prefix(es) in the ROA is contained within the set of IP addresses specified by the EE certificate's IP address delegation extension. (Section 4)

RFC6482-5-1Thus, the integrity of a ROA MUST be established. (Section 5)
MUST 5
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze is neither a ROA producer nor a relying-party validator; it consumes Validated ROA Payloads over the RTR protocol (RFC 8210; internal/component/bgp/plugins/rpki/rtr_pdu.go parsePrefixPDU builds VRPs) and never parses or constructs the RFC 6482 CMS-signed ROA object; establishing ROA integrity is a relying-party/cache responsibility

RFC6482-5-2Specifically, one MUST verify the signature on the ROA using an X.509 certificate issued under this PKI, and check that the prefix(es) in the ROA match those in the certificate's address space extension. (Section 5)
MUST 5
positiveno testno positive test
negativeno testno negative test

{not-applicable}: ze is neither a ROA producer nor a relying-party validator; it consumes Validated ROA Payloads over the RTR protocol (RFC 8210; internal/component/bgp/plugins/rpki/rtr_pdu.go parsePrefixPDU builds VRPs) and never parses or constructs the RFC 6482 CMS-signed ROA object; verifying the ROA's X.509 signature and address-space match is a relying-party/cache responsibility ze does not perform

RFC6482-3.3-3Additionally, a ROA MAY contain two ROAIPAddress elements, where the IP address prefix is identical in both cases. However, this is NOT RECOMMENDED as, in such a case, the ROAIPAddress with the shorter maxLength grants no additional privileges to the indicated AS and thus can be omitted without changing the meaning of the ROA.

Proof state

A tagged unit reads unproven where no discrimination record exists for it: nothing in this tree has been observed to break it, so the claim its tag makes is unproven.

RFC6482-3.1-1

The version number of the RouteOriginAttestation MUST be 0. (Section 3.1)

Audit verdict: not audited: no reader has judged these tests

No test carries RFC6482-3.1-1, so no unit is bound to it.

RFC6482-2-1

This OID MUST appear both within the eContentType in the encapContentInfo object as well as the content-type signed attribute in the signerInfo object (see [RFC6488]). (Section 2)

Audit verdict: not audited: no reader has judged these tests

No test carries RFC6482-2-1, so no unit is bound to it.

RFC6482-3.3-1

This specification only supports IPv4 and IPv6. Therefore, addressFamily MUST be either 0001 or 0002. (Section 3.3)

Audit verdict: not audited: no reader has judged these tests

No test carries RFC6482-3.3-1, so no unit is bound to it.

Audit verdict: not audited: no reader has judged these tests

No test carries RFC6482-3.3-2, so no unit is bound to it.

RFC6482-4-1

Before a relying party can use a ROA to validate a routing announcement, the relying party MUST first validate the ROA. (Section 4)

RFC6482-4-3

To validate a ROA, the relying party MUST perform all the validation checks specified in [RFC6488] as well as the following additional ROA-specific validation step. o The IP address delegation extension [RFC3779] is present in the end-entity (EE) certificate (contained within the ROA), and each IP address prefix(es) in the ROA is contained within the set of IP addresses specified by the EE certificate's IP address delegation extension. (Section 4)

Audit verdict: not audited: no reader has judged these tests
