Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 3] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 1. Introduction JSON-encoded data structures for exchange between systems are often secured against modification using JSON Web Signatures (JWS) [RFC7515]. A popular application of JWS is JSON Web Token (JWT) [RFC7519], a format that is often used to represent a user's identity. An ID Token as defined in OpenID Connect [OpenID.Core], for example, is a JWT containing the user's claims created by the server for consumption by a relying party. In cases where the JWT is sent immediately from the server to the relying party, as in OpenID Connect, the server can select at the time of issuance which user claims to include in the JWT, minimizing the information shared with the relying party who validates the JWT. A new model is emerging that fully decouples the issuance of a JWT from its presentation. In this model, a JWT containing many claims is issued to an intermediate party, who holds the JWT (the Holder). The Holder can then present the JWT to different verifying parties (Verifiers), that each may only require a subset of the claims in the JWT. For example, the JWT may contain claims representing both an address and a birthdate. The Holder may elect to disclose only the address to one Verifier, and only the birthdate to a different Verifier. Privacy principles of minimal disclosure in conjunction with this model demand a mechanism enabling selective disclosure of data elements while ensuring that Verifiers can still check the authenticity of the data provided. This specification defines such a mechanism for JSON-encoded payloads of JSON Web Signatures, with a primary use case being JWTs. SD-JWT is based on an aproach called "salted hashes": For any data element that should be selectively disclosable, the Issuer of the SD- JWT does not include the cleartext of the data in the JSON-encoded payload of the JWS structure; instead, a hash digest of the data takes its place. For presentation to a Verifier, the Holder sends the signed payload along with the cleartext of those claims it wants to disclose. The Verifier can then compute the digest of the cleartext data and confirm it is included in the signed payload. To ensure that Verifiers cannot guess cleartext values of non-disclosed data elements, an additional salt value is used when creating the digest and sent along with the cleartext when disclosing it. To prevent attacks in which an SD-JWT is presented to a Verifier without the Holder's consent, this specification additionally defines a mechanism for binding the SD-JWT to a key under the control of the Holder (Key Binding). When Key Binding is enforced, a Holder has to prove possession of a private key belonging to a public key contained Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 4] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 in the SD-JWT itself. It usually does so by signing over a data structure containing transaction-specific data, herein defined as the Key Binding JWT. An SD-JWT with a Key Binding JWT is called SD- JWT+KB in this specification. 1.1. Feature Summary This specification defines two primary data formats: 1. SD-JWT is a composite structure enabling selective disclosure of its contents. It comprises the following: * A format for enabling selective disclosure in nested JSON data structures, supporting selectively disclosable object properties (name/value pairs) and array elements * A format for encoding the selectively disclosable data items * A format extending the JWS Compact Serialization, allowing for the combined transport of the Issuer-signed JSON data structure and the disclosable data items * An alternate format extending the JWS JSON Serialization, also allowing for transport of the Issuer-signed JSON data structure and disclosure data 2. SD-JWT+KB is a composite structure enabling cryptographic key binding when presented to the Verifier. It comprises the following: * A facility for associating an SD-JWT with a key pair * A format for a Key Binding JWT (KB-JWT) that proves possession of the private key of the associated key pair * A format extending the SD-JWT format for the combined transport of the SD-JWT and the KB-JWT 1.2. Conventions and 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 in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. *Base64url* denotes the URL-safe base64 encoding without padding defined in Section 2 of [RFC7515]. Throughout the document the term "claims" refers generally to both object properties (name/value pairs) as well as array elements. Selective Disclosure: Process of a Holder disclosing to a Verifier a Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 5] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 subset of claims contained in a JWT Claims Set issued by an Issuer. Selectively Disclosable JWT (SD-JWT): A composite structure, consisting of an Issuer-signed JWT (JWS, [RFC7515]) and zero or more Disclosures, which supports selective disclosure as defined in this document. It can contain both regular claims and digests of selectively-disclosable claims. Disclosure: A base64url-encoded string of a JSON array that contains a salt, a claim name (present when the claim is a name/value pair and absent when the claim is an array element), and a claim value. The Disclosure is used to calculate a digest for the respective claim. The term Disclosure refers to the whole base64url-encoded string. Key Binding: Ability of the Holder to prove legitimate possession of an SD-JWT by proving control over a private key during the presentation. When utilizing Key Binding, an SD-JWT contains the public key corresponding to the private key controlled by the Holder (or a reference to this public key). Key Binding JWT (KB-JWT): A JWT for proving Key Binding as defined in Section 4.3. A Key Binding JWT is said to "be tied to" a particular SD-JWT when its payload includes a hash of the SD-JWT in its sd_hash claim. Selectively Disclosable JWT with Key Binding (SD-JWT+KB): A composite structure, comprising an SD-JWT and a Key Binding JWT tied to that SD-JWT. Issuer: An entity that creates SD-JWTs. Holder: An entity that received SD-JWTs from the Issuer and has control over them. In the context of this document, the term may refer to the actual user, the supporting hardware and software in their possession, or both. Verifier: An entity that requests, checks, and extracts the claims from an SD-JWT with its respective Disclosures. 2. Flow Diagram Fett, et al.

Concepts This section describes SD-JWTs with their respective Disclosures and Key Binding at a conceptual level, abstracting from the data formats described in Section 4. 3.1. SD-JWT and Disclosures An SD-JWT, at its core, is a digitally signed JSON document containing digests over the selectively disclosable claims with the Disclosures outside the document. Disclosures can be omitted without breaking the signature, and modifying them can be detected. Selectively disclosable claims can be individual object properties (name/value pairs) or array elements. Each digest value ensures the integrity of, and maps to, the respective Disclosure. Digest values are calculated using a hash function over the Disclosures, each of which contains a Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 7] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 cryptographically secure random salt, the claim name (only when the claim is an object property), and the claim value. The Disclosures are sent to the Holder as part of the SD-JWT in the format defined in Section 4. When presenting an SD-JWT to a Verifier, the Holder only includes the Disclosures for the claims that it wants to reveal to that Verifier. An SD-JWT MAY also contain cleartext claims that are always disclosed to the Verifier. 3.2. Disclosing to a Verifier To disclose to a Verifier a subset of the SD-JWT claim values, a Holder sends only the Disclosures of those selectively released claims to the Verifier as part of the SD-JWT. 3.3. Optional Key Binding Key Binding is an optional feature. When Key Binding is required by the use case, the SD-JWT MUST contain information about the key material controlled by the Holder. Note: How the public key is included in SD-JWT is described in Section 4.1.2. When a Verifier requires Key Binding, the Holder presents an SD- JWT+KB, consisting of an SD-JWT as well as a Key Binding JWT tied to that SD-JWT. The Key Binding JWT encodes a signature by the Holder's private key over * a hash of the SD-JWT, * a nonce to ensure the freshness of the signature, and * an audience value to indicate the intended audience for the document. Details of the format of Key Binding JWTs are described in Section 4.3. 3.4. Verification At a high level, the Verifier * receives either an SD-JWT or an SD-JWT+KB from the Holder, * verifies the signature on the SD-JWT (or the SD-JWT inside the SD- JWT+KB) using the Issuer's public key, * verifies the signature on the KB-JWT using the public key included (or referenced) in the SD-JWT, if the Verifier's policy requires Key Binding, and Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 8] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 * calculates the digests over the Holder-Selected Disclosures and verifies that each digest is contained in the SD-JWT. The detailed algorithm is described in Section 7.3. 4. SD-JWT and SD-JWT+KB Data Formats An SD-JWT is composed of * an Issuer-signed JWT, and * zero or more Disclosures. An SD-JWT+KB is composed of * an SD-JWT (i.e., an Issuer-signed JWT and zero or more Disclosures), and * a Key Binding JWT. The Issuer-signed JWT, Disclosures, and Key Binding JWT are explained in Section 4.1, Section 4.2, and Section 4.3 respectively. The serialized format for the SD-JWT is the concatenation of each part delineated with a single tilde ('~') character as follows: ~~~...~~ The order of the concatenated parts MUST be the Issuer-signed JWT, a tilde character, zero or more Disclosures each followed by a tilde character, and lastly the optional Key Binding JWT. In the case that there is no Key Binding JWT, the last element MUST be an empty string and the last separating tilde character MUST NOT be omitted. The serialized format for an SD-JWT+KB extends the SD-JWT format by concatenating a Key Binding JWT. ~~~...~~ The two formats can be distinguished by the final ~ character that is present on an SD-JWT. A Verifier that expects an SD-JWT MUST verify that the final tilde-separated component is empty. A Verifier that expects an SD-JWT+KB MUST verify that its final tilde-separated component is a valid KB-JWT. The Disclosures are linked to the Issuer-signed JWT through the digest values included therein. When issuing to a Holder, the Issuer includes all the relevant Disclosures in the SD-JWT. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 9] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 When presenting to a Verifier, the Holder sends only the selected set of the Disclosures in the SD-JWT. The Holder MAY send any subset of the Disclosures to the Verifier, i.e., none, some, or all Disclosures. For data that the Holder does not want to reveal to the Verifier, the Holder MUST NOT send Disclosures or reveal the salt values in any other way. A Holder MUST NOT send a Disclosure that was not included in the issued SD-JWT or send a Disclosure more than once. To further illustrate the SD-JWT format, the following examples show a few different SD-JWT permutations, both with and without various constituent parts. An SD-JWT without Disclosures: ~ An SD-JWT with Disclosures: ~~~ An SD-JWT+KB without Disclosures: ~ An SD-JWT+KB with Disclosures: ~~~ As an alternative illustration of the SD-JWT format, for those who celebrate, ABNF [RFC5234] for the SD-JWT, SD-JWT+KB, and various constituent parts is provided here: ALPHA = %x41-5A / %x61-7A ; A-Z / a-z DIGIT = %x30-39 ; 0-9 BASE64URL = 1*(ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "_") JWT = BASE64URL "." BASE64URL "." BASE64URL DISCLOSURE = BASE64URL SD-JWT = JWT "~" *[DISCLOSURE "~"] KB-JWT = JWT SD-JWT-KB = SD-JWT KB-JWT 4.1. Issuer-signed JWT An SD-JWT has a JWT component that MUST be signed using the Issuer's private key. It MUST NOT use the none algorithm. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 10] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 The payload of an SD-JWT is a JSON object according to the following rules: 1. The payload MAY contain the _sd_alg key described in Section 4.1.1. 2. The payload MAY contain one or more digests of Disclosures to enable selective disclosure of the respective claims, created and formatted as described in Section 4.2. 3. The payload MAY contain one or more decoy digests to obscure the actual number of claims in the SD-JWT, created and formatted as described in Section 4.2.5. 4. The payload MAY contain one or more non-selectively disclosable claims. 5. The payload MAY contain the Holder's public key(s) or reference(s) thereto, as explained in Section 4.1.2. 6. The payload MAY contain further claims such as iss, iat, etc. as defined or required by the application using SD-JWTs. 7. The payload MUST NOT contain the reserved claims _sd or ... except for the purpose of transporting digests as described below. The same digest value MUST NOT appear more than once in the SD-JWT. Application and profiles of SD-JWT SHOULD be explicitly typed. See Section 9.11 for more details. It is the Issuer who decides which claims are selectively disclosable and which are not. End-User claims MAY be included as plaintext as well, e.g., if hiding the particular claims from the Verifier is not required in the intended use case. See Section 9.7 for considerations on making validity-controlling claims such as exp selectively disclosable. Claims that are not selectively disclosable are included in the SD- JWT in plaintext just as they would be in any other JSON structure. 4.1.1. Hash Function Claim The claim _sd_alg indicates the hash algorithm used by the Issuer to generate the digests as described in Section 4.2. When used, this claim MUST appear at the top level of the SD-JWT payload. It MUST NOT be used in any object nested within the payload. If the _sd_alg claim is not present at the top level, a default value of sha-256 MUST be used. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 11] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 The hash algorithm identifier MUST be a hash algorithm value from the "Hash Name String" column in the IANA "Named Information Hash Algorithm" registry [IANA.Hash.Algorithms] or a value defined in another specification and/or profile of this specification. To promote interoperability, implementations MUST support the sha-256 hash algorithm. See Section 9 for requirements regarding entropy of the salt, minimum length of the salt, and choice of a hash algorithm. 4.1.2. Key Binding If the Issuer wants to enable Key Binding, it includes a public key associated with the Holder, or a reference thereto, using the cnf claim as defined in [RFC7800]. The jwk confirmation method, as defined in Section 3.2 of [RFC7800], is suggested for doing so, however, other confirmation methods can be used. Note that, as was stated in [RFC7800], if an application needs to represent multiple proof-of-possession keys in the same SD-JWT, one way to achieve this is to use other claim names, in addition to cnf, to hold the additional proof-of-possession key information. It is out of the scope of this document to describe how the Holder key pair is established. For example, the Holder MAY create a key pair and provide a public key to the Issuer, the Issuer MAY create the key pair for the Holder, or Holder and Issuer MAY use pre- established key material. Note: The examples throughout this document use the cnf claim with the jwk member to include the raw public key by value in SD-JWT. 4.2. Disclosures Disclosures are created differently depending on whether a claim is an object property (name/value pair) or an array element. * For a claim that is an object property, the Issuer creates a Disclosure as described in Section 4.2.1. * For a claim that is an array element, the Issuer creates a Disclosure as described in Section 4.2.2. 4.2.1. Disclosures for Object Properties For each claim that is an object property and that is to be made selectively disclosable, the Issuer MUST create a Disclosure as follows: Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 12] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 * Create an array of three elements in this order: 1. A salt value. MUST be a string. See Section 9.3 for security considerations. It is RECOMMENDED to base64url-encode a minimum of 128 bits of cryptographically secure random data, producing a string. The salt value MUST be unique for each claim that is to be selectively disclosed. The Issuer MUST NOT reveal the salt value to any party other than the Holder. 2. The claim name, or key, as it would be used in a regular JWT payload. It MUST be a string and MUST NOT be _sd, ..., or a claim name existing in the object as a non-selectively disclosable claim. 3. The claim value, as it would be used in a regular JWT payload. The value MAY be of any type that is allowed in JSON, including numbers, strings, booleans, arrays, null, and objects. * JSON-encode the array, producing an UTF-8 string. * base64url-encode the byte representation of the UTF-8 string, producing a US-ASCII [RFC20] string. This string is the Disclosure. The order is decided based on the readability considerations: salts would have a constant length within the SD-JWT, claim names would be around the same length all the time, and claim values would vary in size, potentially being large objects. The following example illustrates the steps described above. The array is created as follows: ["_26bc4LT-ac6q2KI6cBW5es", "family_name", "Möbius"] The resulting Disclosure would be: WyJfMjZiYzRMVC1hYzZxMktJNmNCVzVlcy IsICJmYW1pbHlfbmFtZSIsICJNw7ZiaXVzIl0 Note that variations in whitespace, encoding of Unicode characters, ordering of object properties, etc., are allowed in the JSON representation and no canonicalization needs be performed before base64url-encoding. For example, the following strings are all valid and encode the same claim value "Möbius": * A different way to encode the unicode umlaut: WyJfMjZiYzRMVC1hYzZxMktJNmNCVzVlcyIsICJmYW1pbHlfbmFtZSIsICJNX HUwMGY2Yml1cyJd * No white space: WyJfMjZiYzRMVC1hYzZxMktJNmNCVzVlcyIsImZhbWlseV9uYW1lIiwiTcO2Y ml1cyJd Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 13] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 * Newline characters between elements: WwoiXzI2YmM0TFQtYWM2cTJLSTZjQlc1ZXMiLAoiZmFtaWx5X25hbWUiLAoiT cO2Yml1cyIKXQ See Appendix B for some further considerations on the Disclosure format approach. 4.2.2. Disclosures for Array Elements For each claim that is an array element and that is to be made selectively disclosable, the Issuer MUST create a Disclosure as follows: * The array MUST contain two elements in this order: 1. The salt value as described in Section 4.2.1. 2. The array element that is to be hidden. This value MAY be of any type that is allowed in JSON, including numbers, strings, booleans, arrays, and objects. The Disclosure string is created by JSON-encoding this array and base64url-encoding the byte representation of the resulting string as described in Section 4.2.1. The same considerations regarding variations in the result of the JSON encoding apply. For example, a Disclosure for the second element of the nationalities array in the following JWT Claims Set: { "nationalities": ["DE", "FR"] } could be created by first creating the following array: ["lklxF5jMYlGTPUovMNIvCA", "FR"] The resulting Disclosure would be: WyJsa2x4RjVqTVlsR1RQVW92TU5JdkNBIiwgIkZSIl0 4.2.3. Hashing Disclosures For embedding references to the Disclosures in the SD-JWT, each Disclosure is hashed using the hash algorithm specified in the _sd_alg claim described in Section 4.1.1. The resulting digest is then included in the SD-JWT payload instead of the original claim value, as described next. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 14] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 The digest MUST be taken over the US-ASCII bytes of the base64url- encoded value that is the Disclosure. This follows the convention in JWS [RFC7515] and JWE [RFC7516]. The bytes of the digest MUST then be base64url-encoded. It is important to note that: * The input to the hash function MUST be the base64url-encoded Disclosure, not the bytes encoded by the base64url string. * The bytes of the output of the hash function MUST be base64url- encoded, and are not the bytes making up the (sometimes used) hex representation of the bytes of the digest. For example, the base64url-encoded SHA-256 digest of the Disclosure W yJfMjZiYzRMVC1hYzZxMktJNmNCVzVlcyIsICJmYW1pbHlfbmFtZSIsICJNw7ZiaXVzIl 0 for the family_name claim from Section 4.2.1 above is X9yH0Ajrdm1Oij4tWso9UzzKJvPoDxwmuEcO3XAdRC0. 4.2.4. Embedding Disclosure Digests in SD-JWTs For selectively disclosable claims, the digests of the Disclosures are embedded into the Issuer-signed JWT instead of the claims themselves. The precise way of embedding depends on whether a claim is an object property (name/value pair) or an array element. * For a claim that is an object property, the Issuer embeds a Disclosure digest as described in Section 4.2.4.1. * For a claim that is an array element, the Issuer creates a Disclosure digest as described in Section 4.2.4.2. 4.2.4.1. Object Properties Digests of Disclosures for object properties are added to an array under the new key _sd in the object. The _sd key MUST refer to an array of strings, each string being a digest of a Disclosure or a decoy digest as described in Section 4.2.5. The array MAY be empty in case the Issuer decided not to selectively disclose any of the claims at that level. However, it is RECOMMENDED to omit the _sd key in this case to save space. The Issuer MUST hide the original order of the claims in the array. To ensure this, it is RECOMMENDED to shuffle the array of hashes, e.g., by sorting it alphanumerically or randomly, after potentially adding decoy digests as described in Section 4.2.5. The precise method does not matter as long as it does not depend on the original order of elements. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 15] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 For example, using the digest of the Disclosure from Section 4.2.3, the Issuer could create the following SD-JWT payload to make family_name selectively disclosable: { "given_name": "Alice", "_sd": ["X9yH0Ajrdm1Oij4tWso9UzzKJvPoDxwmuEcO3XAdRC0"] } 4.2.4.2. Array Elements Digests of Disclosures for array elements are added to the array in the same position as the original claim value in the array. For each digest, an object of the form {"...": ""} is added to the array. The key MUST always be the string ... (three dots). The value MUST be the digest of the Disclosure created as described in Section 4.2.3. There MUST NOT be any other keys in the object. Note that the string ... was chosen because the ellipsis character, typically entered as three period characters, is commonly used in places where content is omitted from the present context. For example, using the digest of the array element Disclosure created above, the Issuer could create the following SD-JWT payload to make the second element of the nationalities array selectively disclosable: { "nationalities": ["DE", {"...": "w0I8EKcdCtUPkGCNUrfwVp2xEgNjtoIDlOxc9-PlOhs"}] } As described in Section 7.3, Verifiers ignore all selectively disclosable array elements for which they did not receive a Disclosure. In the example above, the verification process would output an array with only one element unless a matching Disclosure for the second element is received. 4.2.5. Decoy Digests An Issuer MAY add additional digests to the SD-JWT payload that are not associated with any claim. The purpose of such "decoy" digests is to make it more difficult for an attacker to see the original number of claims contained in the SD-JWT. Decoy digests MAY be added both to the _sd array for objects as well as in arrays. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 16] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 It is RECOMMENDED to create the decoy digests by hashing over a cryptographically secure random number. The bytes of the digest MUST then be base64url-encoded as above. The same digest function as for the Disclosures MUST be used. For decoy digests, no Disclosure is sent to the Holder, i.e., the Holder will see digests that do not correspond to any Disclosure. See Section 10.4 for additional privacy considerations. To ensure readability and replicability, the examples in this specification do not contain decoy digests unless explicitly stated. For an example with decoy digests, see Appendix A.1. 4.2.6. Recursive Disclosures The algorithms above are compatible with "recursive disclosures", in which one selectively disclosed field reveals the existence of more selectively disclosable fields. For example, consider the following JSON structure: { "family_name": "Möbius", "nationalities": ["DE", "FR", "UK"] } When the Holder has multiple nationalities, the issuer may wish to conceal the presence of any statement regarding nationalities while also allowing the holder to reveal each of those nationalities individually. This can be accomplished by first making the entries within the "nationalities" array selectively disclosable, and then making the whole "nationalities" field selectively disclosable. The following shows each of the entries within the "nationalities" array being made selectively disclosable: { "family_name": "Möbius", "nationalities": [ { "...": "PmnlrRjhLcwf8zTDdK15HVGwHtPYjddvD362WjBLwro" } { "...": "r823HFN6Ba_lpSANYtXqqCBAH-TsQlIzfOK0lRAFLCM" }, { "...": "nP5GYjwhFm6ESlAeC4NCaIliW4tz0hTrUeoJB3lb5TA" } ] } Content of Disclosures: PmnlrRj... = ["16_mAd0GiwaZokU26_0i0h","DE"] r823HFN... = ["fn9fN0rD-fFs2n303ZI-0c","FR"] nP5GYjw... = ["YIKesqOkXXNzMQtsX_-_lw","UK"] Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 17] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 Followed by making the whole "nationalities" array selectively disclosable: { "family_name": "Möbius", "_sd": [ "5G1srw3RG5W4pVTwSsYxeOWosRBbzd18ZoWKkC-hBL4" ] } Content of Disclosures: PmnlrRj... = ["16_mAd0GiwaZokU26_0i0h","DE"] r823HFN... = ["fn9fN0rD-fFs2n303ZI-0c","FR"] nP5GYjw... = ["YIKesqOkXXNzMQtsX_-_lw","UK"] 5G1srw3... = ["4drfeTtSUK3aY_-PF12gcX","nationalities", [ { "...": "PmnlrRjhLcwf8zTDdK15HVGwHtPYjddvD362WjBLwro" }, { "...": "r823HFN6Ba_lpSANYtXqqCBAH-TsQlIzfOK0lRAFLCM" }, { "...": "nP5GYjwhFm6ESlAeC4NCaIliW4tz0hTrUeoJB3lb5TA" } ] ] With this set of disclosures, the holder could include the disclosure with hash PmnlrRj... to disclose only the "DE" nationality, or include both PmnlrRj... and r823HFN... to disclose both the "DE" and "FR" nationalities, but hide the "UK" nationality. In either case, the holder would also need to include the disclosure with hash 5G1srw3... to disclose the nationalities field that contains the respective elements. Note that making recursive redactions introduces dependencies between the disclosure objects in an SD-JWT. The r823HFN... disclosure cannot be used without the 5G1srw3... disclosure; since a Verifier would not have a matching hash that would tell it where the content of the r823HFN... disclosure should be inserted. If a disclosure object is included in an SD-JWT, then the SD-JWT MUST include any other disclosure objects necessary to process the first disclosure object. In other words, any disclosure object in an SD-JWT must "connect" to the claims in the issuer-signed JWT, possibly via an intermediate disclosure object. In the above example, it would be illegal to include any one of the PmnlrRj..., r823HFN..., nP5GYjw.. disclosure objects without also including the 5G1srw3... disclosure object. 4.3. Key Binding JWT This section defines the Key Binding JWT, which encodes a signature over an SD-JWT by the Holder's private key. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 18] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 The Key Binding JWT MUST be a JWT according to [RFC7519] and its payload MUST contain the following elements: * in the JOSE header, - typ: REQUIRED. MUST be kb+jwt, which explicitly types the Key Binding JWT as recommended in Section 3.11 of [RFC8725]. - alg: REQUIRED. A digital signature algorithm identifier such as per IANA "JSON Web Signature and Encryption Algorithms" registry. It MUST NOT be none. * in the JWT payload, - iat: REQUIRED. The value of this claim MUST be the time at which the Key Binding JWT was issued using the syntax defined in [RFC7519]. - aud: REQUIRED. The intended receiver of the Key Binding JWT. How the value is represented is up to the protocol used and out of scope of this specification. - nonce: REQUIRED. Ensures the freshness of the signature. The value type of this claim MUST be a string. How this value is obtained is up to the protocol used and out of scope of this specification. - sd_hash: REQUIRED. The base64url-encoded hash value over the Issuer-signed JWT and the selected Disclosures as defined below. 4.3.1. Binding to an SD-JWT The hash value in the sd_hash claim binds the KB-JWT to the specific SD-JWT. The sd_hash value MUST be taken over the US-ASCII bytes of the encoded SD-JWT, i.e., the Issuer-signed JWT, a tilde character, and zero or more Disclosures selected for presentation to the Verifier, each followed by a tilde character: ~~~...~~ The bytes of the digest MUST then be base64url-encoded. The same hash algorithm as for the Disclosures MUST be used (defined by the _sd_alg element in the Issuer-signed JWT or the default value, as defined in Section 4.1.1). 4.3.2. Validating the Key Binding JWT The Verifier MUST ensure that the key with which it validates the signature on the Key Binding JWT is the key specified in the SD-JWT as the Holder's public key. For example, if the SD-JWT contains a cnf value with a jwk member, the Verifier would parse the provided JWK and use it to verify the Key Binding JWT. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 19] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 Whether to require Key Binding is up to the Verifier's policy, based on the set of trust requirements such as trust frameworks it belongs to. See Section 9.5 for security considerations. 5. Example SD-JWT In this example, a simple SD-JWT is demonstrated. This example is split into issuance and presentation. Note: Throughout the examples in this document, line breaks had to be added to JSON strings and base64-encoded strings to adhere to the 72-character limit for lines in RFCs and for readability. JSON does not allow line breaks within strings. 5.1. Issuance The following data about the user comprises the input JWT Claims Set used by the Issuer: { "sub": "user_42", "given_name": "John", "family_name": "Doe", "email": "johndoe@example.com", "phone_number": "+1-202-555-0101", "phone_number_verified": true, "address": { "street_address": "123 Main St", "locality": "Anytown", "region": "Anystate", "country": "US" }, "birthdate": "1940-01-01", "updated_at": 1570000000, "nationalities": [ "US", "DE" ] } In this example, the following decisions were made by the Issuer in constructing the SD-JWT: * The nationalities array is always visible, but its contents are selectively disclosable. * The sub element as well as essential verification data (iss, exp, cnf, etc.) are always visible. * All other End-User claims are selectively disclosable. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 20] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 * For address, the Issuer is using a flat structure, i.e., all the claims in the address claim can only be disclosed in full. Other options are discussed in Section 6.

Considerations on Nested Data in SD-JWTs Being JSON, an object in an SD-JWT payload MAY contain name/value pairs where the value is another object or objects MAY be elements in arrays. In SD-JWT, the Issuer decides for each claim individually, on each level of the JSON, whether the claim should be selectively disclosable or not. This choice can be made on each level independent from whether keys higher in the hierarchy are selectively disclosable. From this it follows that the _sd key containing digests MAY appear multiple times in an SD-JWT, and likewise, there MAY be multiple arrays within the hierarchy with each having selectively disclosable elements. Digests of selectively disclosable claims MAY even appear within other Disclosures. The following examples illustrate some of the options an Issuer has. It is up to the Issuer to decide which structure to use, depending on, for example, the expected use cases for the SD-JWT, requirements for privacy, size considerations, or ecosystem requirements. For more examples with nested structures, see Appendix A.1 and Appendix A.2. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 27] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 The following input JWT Claims Set is used as an example throughout this section: { "sub": "6c5c0a49-b589-431d-bae7-219122a9ec2c", "address": { "street_address": "Schulstr. 12", "locality": "Schulpforta", "region": "Sachsen-Anhalt", "country": "DE" } } Note: The following examples of the structures are non-normative and are not intended to represent all possible options. They are also not meant to define or restrict how address can be represented in an SD-JWT. 6.1. Example: Flat SD-JWT The Issuer can decide to treat the address claim as a block that can either be disclosed completely or not at all. The following example shows that in this case, the entire address claim is treated as an object in the Disclosure. { "_sd": [ "fOBUSQvo46yQO-wRwXBcGqvnbKIueISEL961_Sjd4do" ], "iss": "https://issuer.example.com", "iat": 1683000000, "exp": 1883000000, "sub": "6c5c0a49-b589-431d-bae7-219122a9ec2c", "_sd_alg": "sha-256" } The Issuer would create the following Disclosure referenced by the one hash in the SD-JWT: *Claim address*: * SHA-256 Hash: fOBUSQvo46yQO-wRwXBcGqvnbKIueISEL961_Sjd4do * Disclosure: WyIyR0xDNDJzS1F2ZUNmR2ZyeU5STjl3IiwgImFkZHJlc3MiLCB7InN0cmVl dF9hZGRyZXNzIjogIlNjaHVsc3RyLiAxMiIsICJsb2NhbGl0eSI6ICJTY2h1 bHBmb3J0YSIsICJyZWdpb24iOiAiU2FjaHNlbi1BbmhhbHQiLCAiY291bnRy eSI6ICJERSJ9XQ Fett, et al.

Verification and Processing 7.1. Verification of the SD-JWT Upon receiving an SD-JWT, either directly or as a component of an SD- JWT+KB, a Holder or a Verifier needs to ensure that: * the Issuer-signed JWT is valid, i.e., it is signed by the Issuer and the signature is valid, and * all Disclosures are valid and correspond to a respective digest value in the Issuer-signed JWT (directly in the payload or recursively included in the contents of other Disclosures). The Holder or the Verifier MUST perform the following (or equivalent) steps when receiving an SD-JWT: 1. Separate the SD-JWT into the Issuer-signed JWT and the Disclosures (if any). 2. Validate the Issuer-signed JWT: 1. Ensure that a signing algorithm was used that was deemed secure for the application. Refer to [RFC8725], Sections 3.1 and 3.2 for details. The none algorithm MUST NOT be accepted. 2. Validate the signature over the Issuer-signed JWT per Section 5.2 of [RFC7515]. 3. Validate the Issuer and that the signing key belongs to this Issuer. 4. Check that the _sd_alg claim value is understood and the hash algorithm is deemed secure (see Section 4.1.1). 3. Process the Disclosures and embedded digests in the Issuer-signed JWT as follows: 1. For each Disclosure provided: 1. Calculate the digest over the base64url-encoded string as described in Section 4.2.3. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 32] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 2. (*) Identify all embedded digests in the Issuer-signed JWT as follows: 1. Find all objects having an _sd key that refers to an array of strings. 2. Find all array elements that are objects with one key, that key being ... and referring to a string. 3. (**) For each embedded digest found in the previous step: 1. Compare the value with the digests calculated previously and find the matching Disclosure. If no such Disclosure can be found, the digest MUST be ignored. 2. If the digest was found in an object's _sd key: 1. If the contents of the respective Disclosure is not a JSON-encoded array of three elements (salt, claim name, claim value), the SD-JWT MUST be rejected. 2. If the claim name is _sd or ..., the SD-JWT MUST be rejected. 3. If the claim name already exists at the level of the _sd key, the SD-JWT MUST be rejected. 4. Insert, at the level of the _sd key, a new claim using the claim name and claim value from the Disclosure. 5. Recursively process the value using the steps described in (*) and (**). 3. If the digest was found in an array element: 1. If the contents of the respective Disclosure is not a JSON-encoded array of two elements (salt, value), the SD-JWT MUST be rejected. 2. Replace the array element with the value from the Disclosure. 3. Recursively process the value using the steps described in (*) and (**). 4. Remove all array elements for which the digest was not found in the previous step. 5. Remove all _sd keys and their contents from the Issuer-signed JWT payload. If this results in an object with no properties, it should be represented as an empty object {}. 6. Remove the claim _sd_alg from the SD-JWT payload. 4. If any digest value is encountered more than once in the Issuer- signed JWT payload (directly or recursively via other Disclosures), the SD-JWT MUST be rejected. 5. If any Disclosure was not referenced by digest value in the Issuer-signed JWT (directly or recursively via other Disclosures), the SD-JWT MUST be rejected. 6. Check that the SD-JWT is valid using claims such as nbf, iat, and exp in the processed payload. If a required validity-controlling claim is missing (see Section 9.7), the SD-JWT MUST be rejected. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 33] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 If any step fails, the SD-JWT is not valid, and processing MUST be aborted. Otherwise, the JSON document resulting from the preceding processing and verification steps, herein referred to as the processed SD-JWT payload, can be made available to the application to be used for its intended purpose. Note that these processing steps do not yield any guarantees to the Holder about having received a complete set of Disclosures. That is, for some digest values in the Issuer-signed JWT (which are not decoy digests) there may be no corresponding Disclosures, for example, if the message from the Issuer was truncated. It is up to the Holder how to maintain the mapping between the Disclosures and the plaintext claim values to be able to display them to the End-User when needed. 7.2. Processing by the Holder The Issuer MUST provide the Holder an SD-JWT, not an SD-JWT+KB. If the Holder receives an SD-JWT+KB, it MUST be rejected. For presentation to a Verifier, the Holder MUST perform the following (or equivalent) steps: 1. Decide which Disclosures to release to the Verifier, obtaining proper End-User consent if necessary. 2. Verify that each selected Disclosure satisfies one of the two following conditions: 1. The hash of the Disclosure is contained in the Issuer-signed JWT claims 2. The hash of the Disclosure is contained in the claim value of another selected Disclosure 3. Assemble the SD-JWT, including the Issuer-signed JWT and the selected Disclosures (see Section 4 for the format). 4. If Key Binding is not required: 1. Send the SD-JWT to the Verifier. 5. If Key Binding is required: 1. Create a Key Binding JWT tied to the SD-JWT. 2. Assemble the SD-JWT+KB by concatenating the SD-JWT and the Key Binding JWT. 3. Send the SD-JWT+KB to the Verifier. 7.3. Verification by the Verifier Upon receiving a presentation from a Holder, in the form of either an SD-JWT or an SD-JWT+KB, in addition to the checks outlined in Section 7.1, Verifiers need to ensure that Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 34] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 * if Key Binding is required, then the Holder has provided an SD- JWT+KB, and * the Key Binding JWT is signed by the Holder and valid. To this end, Verifiers MUST follow the following steps (or equivalent): 1. Determine if Key Binding is to be checked according to the Verifier's policy for the use case at hand. This decision MUST NOT be based on whether a Key Binding JWT is provided by the Holder or not. Refer to Section 9.5 for details. 2. If Key Binding is required and the Holder has provided an SD-JWT (without Key Binding), the Verifier MUST reject the presentation. 3. If the Holder has provided an SD-JWT+KB, parse it into an SD-JWT and a Key Binding JWT. 4. Process the SD-JWT as defined in Section 7.1. 5. If Key Binding is required: 1. Determine the public key for the Holder from the SD-JWT (see Section 4.1.2). 2. Ensure that a signing algorithm was used that was deemed secure for the application. Refer to [RFC8725], Sections 3.1 and 3.2 for details. The none algorithm MUST NOT be accepted. 3. Validate the signature over the Key Binding JWT per Section 5.2 of [RFC7515]. 4. Check that the typ of the Key Binding JWT is kb+jwt (see Section 4.3). 5. Check that the creation time of the Key Binding JWT, as determined by the iat claim, is within an acceptable window. 6. Determine that the Key Binding JWT is bound to the current transaction and was created for this Verifier (replay protection) by validating nonce and aud claims. 7. Calculate the digest over the Issuer-signed JWT and Disclosures as defined in Section 4.3.1 and verify that it matches the value of the sd_hash claim in the Key Binding JWT. 8. Check that the Key Binding JWT is a valid JWT in all other respects, per [RFC7519] and [RFC8725]. If any step fails, the presentation is not valid and processing MUST be aborted. Otherwise, the processed SD-JWT payload can be passed to the application to be used for the intended purpose. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 35] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 8. JWS JSON Serialization This section describes an alternative format for SD-JWTs and SD- JWT+KBs using the JWS JSON Serialization from [RFC7515]. Supporting this format is OPTIONAL. 8.1. New Unprotected Header Parameters For both the General and Flattened JSON Serialization, the SD-JWT or SD-JWT+KB is represented as a JSON object according to Section 7.2 of [RFC7515]. The following new unprotected header parameters are defined: * disclosures: An array of strings where each element is an individual Disclosure as described in Section 4.2. * kb_jwt: Present only in an SD-JWT+KB, the Key Binding JWT as described in Section 4.3. In an SD-JWT+KB, kb_jwt MUST be present when using the JWS JSON Serialization, and the digest in the sd_hash claim MUST be taken over the SD-JWT as described in Section 4.3.1. This means that even when using the JWS JSON Serialization, the representation as a regular SD- JWT Compact Serialization MUST be created temporarily to calculate the digest. In detail, the SD-JWT Compact Serialization part is built by concatenating the protected header, the payload, and the signature of the JWS JSON serialized SD-JWT using a . character as a separator, and using the Disclosures from the disclosures member of the unprotected header. Unprotected headers other than disclosures are not covered by the digest, and therefore, as usual, are not protected against tampering. 8.2. Flattened JSON Serialization In case of the Flattened JSON Serialization, there is only one unprotected header.

Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 39] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 8.4. Verification of the JWS JSON Serialized SD-JWT Verification of the JWS JSON serialized SD-JWT follows the rules defined in Section 3.4, except for the following aspects: * The SD-JWT or SD-JWT+KB does not need to be split into component parts and the Disclosures can be found in the disclosures member of the unprotected header. * To verify the digest in sd_hash in the Key Binding JWT of an SD- JWT+KB, the Verifier MUST assemble the string to be hashed as described in Section 8.1. 9. Security Considerations Security considerations in this section help achieve the following properties: *Selective Disclosure:* An adversary in the role of the Verifier cannot obtain information from an SD-JWT about any claim name or claim value that was not explicitly disclosed by the Holder unless that information can be derived from other disclosed claims or sources other than the presented SD-JWT. *Integrity:* A malicious Holder cannot modify names or values of selectively disclosable claims without detection by the Verifier. Additionally, as described in Section 9.5, the application of Key Binding can ensure that the presenter of an SD-JWT credential is the legitimate Holder of the credential. 9.1. Mandatory Signing of the Issuer-signed JWT The Issuer-signed JWT MUST be signed by the Issuer to protect integrity of the issued claims. An attacker can modify or add claims if this JWT is not signed (e.g., change the "email" attribute to take over the victim's account or add an attribute indicating a fake academic qualification). The Verifier MUST always check the signature of the Issuer-signed JWT to ensure that it has not been tampered with since the issuance. The Issuer-signed JWT MUST be rejected if the signature cannot be verified. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 40] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 The security of the Issuer-signed JWT depends on the security of the signature algorithm. Any of the JWS asymmetric digital signature algorithms registered in [IANA.JWS.Algorithms] that meet the security requirements described in the last paragraph of Section 5.2 of [RFC7515] can be used, including post-quantum algorithms, when they are ready. 9.2. Manipulation of Disclosures Holders can manipulate the Disclosures by changing the values of the claims before sending them to the Verifier. The Verifier MUST check the Disclosures to ensure that the values of the claims are correct, i.e., the digests of the Disclosures are actually present in the signed SD-JWT. A naive Verifier that extracts all claim values from the Disclosures (without checking the hashes) and inserts them into the SD-JWT payload is vulnerable to this attack. However, in a structured SD- JWT, without comparing the digests of the Disclosures, such an implementation could not determine the correct place in a nested object where a claim needs to be inserted. Therefore, the naive implementation would not only be insecure, but also incorrect. The steps described in Section 7.3 ensure that the Verifier checks the Disclosures correctly. 9.3. Entropy of the Salt The security model that conceals the plaintext claims relies on the high entropy random data of the salt as additional input to the hash function. The randomness ensures that the same plaintext claim value does not produce the same digest value. It also makes it infeasible to guess the preimage of the digest (thereby learning the plaintext claim value) by enumerating the potential value space for a claim into the hash function to search for a matching digest value. It is therefore vitally important that unrevealed salts cannot be learned or guessed, even if other salts have been revealed. As such, each salt MUST be created in such a manner that it is cryptographically random, sufficiently long, and has high enough entropy that it is infeasible to guess. A new salt MUST be chosen for each claim independently of other salts. See Randomness Requirements for Security [RFC4086] for considerations on generating random values. The RECOMMENDED minimum length of the randomly-generated portion of the salt is 128 bits. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 41] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 The Issuer MUST ensure that a new salt value is chosen for each claim, including when the same claim name occurs at different places in the structure of the SD-JWT. This can be seen in the example in Appendix A.2, where multiple claims with the name type appear, but each of them has a different salt. 9.4. Choice of a Hash Algorithm To ensure privacy of claims that are selectively disclosable, but are not being disclosed in a given presentation, the hash function MUST ensure that it is infeasible to calculate any portion of the three elements (salt, claim name, claim value) from a particular digest. This implies the hash function MUST be preimage resistant, but should also not allow an observer to infer any partial information about the undisclosed content. In the terminology of cryptographic commitment schemes, the hash function MUST be computationally hiding. To ensure the integrity of selectively disclosable claims, the hash function MUST be second-preimage resistant. That is, for any combination of salt, claim name and claim value, it is infeasible to find a different combination of salt, claim name and claim value that result in the same digest. The hash function SHOULD also be collision resistant. Although not essential to the anticipated uses of SD-JWT, without collision resistance an Issuer may be able to find multiple disclosures that have the same hash value. In which case, the signature over the SD- JWT would not then commit the Issuer to the contents of the JWT. The collision resistance of the hash function used to generate digests SHOULD match the collision resistance of the hash function used by the signature scheme. For example, use of the ES512 signature algorithm would require a disclosure hash function with at least 256-bit collision resistance, such as SHA-512. Inclusion in the "Named Information Hash Algorithm" registry [IANA.Hash.Algorithms] alone does not indicate a hash algorithm's suitability for use in SD-JWT (it contains several heavily truncated digests, such as sha-256-32 and sha-256-64, which are unfit for security applications). Furthermore, the hash algorithms MD2, MD4, MD5, and SHA-1 revealed fundamental weaknesses and MUST NOT be used. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 42] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 9.5. Key Binding Key Binding aims to ensure that the presenter of an SD-JWT credential is actually the legitimate Holder of the credential. An SD-JWT compatible with Key Binding contains a public key, or a reference to a public key, that corresponds to a private key possessed by the Holder. The Verifier requires that the Holder prove possession of that private key when presenting the SD-JWT credential. Without Key Binding, a Verifier only gets the proof that the credential was issued by a particular Issuer, but the credential itself can be replayed by anyone who gets access to it. This means that, for example, after a credential was leaked to an attacker, the attacker can present the credential to any verifier that does not require a binding. But also a malicious Verifier to which the Holder presented the credential can present the credential to another Verifier if that other Verifier does not require Key Binding. Verifiers MUST decide whether Key Binding is required for a particular use case before verifying a credential. This decision can be informed by various factors including, but not limited to the following: business requirements, the use case, the type of binding between a Holder and its credential that is required for a use case, the sensitivity of the use case, the expected properties of a credential, the type and contents of other credentials expected to be presented at the same time, etc. It is important that a Verifier does not make its security policy decisions based on data that can be influenced by an attacker. For this reason, when deciding whether Key Binding is required or not, Verifiers MUST NOT take into account whether the Holder has provided an SD-JWT+KB or a bare SD-JWT, since otherwise an attacker could strip the KB-JWT from an SD-JWT+KB and present the resulting SD-JWT. Furthermore, Verifiers should be aware that Key Binding information may have been added to an SD-JWT in a format that they do not recognize and therefore may not be able to tell whether the SD-JWT supports Key Binding or not. If a Verifier determines that Key Binding is required for a particular use case and the Holder presents either a bare SD-JWT or an SD-JWT+KB with an invalid Key Binding JWT, then the Verifier will reject the presentation when following the verification steps described in Section 7.3. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 43] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 9.6. Blinding Claim Names SD-JWT ensures that names of claims that are selectively disclosable are always blinded. This prevents an attacker from learning the names of the disclosable claims. However, the names of the claims that are not disclosable are not blinded. This includes the keys of objects that themselves are not blinded, but contain disclosable claims. This limitation needs to be taken into account by Issuers when creating the structure of the SD-JWT. 9.7. Selectively-Disclosable Validity Claims An Issuer MUST NOT allow any content to be selectively disclosable that is critical for evaluating the SD-JWT's authenticity or validity. The exact list of such content will depend on the application and SHOULD be listed by any application-specific profiles of SD-JWT. The following is a list of registered JWT claim names that SHOULD be considered as security-critical: * iss (Issuer) * aud (Audience), although issuers MAY allow individual entries in the array to be selectively disclosable * exp (Expiration Time) * nbf (Not Before) * cnf (Confirmation Key) Issuers will typically include claims controlling the validity of the SD-JWT in plaintext in the SD-JWT payload, but there is no guarantee they would do so. Therefore, Verifiers cannot reliably depend on that and need to operate as though security-critical claims might be selectively disclosable. Verifiers therefore MUST ensure that all claims they deem necessary for checking the validity of an SD-JWT in the given context are present (or disclosed, respectively) during validation of the SD-JWT. This is implemented in the last step of the verification defined in Section 7.1. The precise set of required validity claims will typically be defined by ecosystem rules, application-specific profile, or the credential format and MAY include claims other than those listed herein. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 44] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 9.8. Issuer Signature Key Distribution and Rotation This specification does not define how signature verification keys of Issuers are distributed to Verifiers. However, it is RECOMMENDED that Issuers publish their keys in a way that allows for efficient and secure key rotation and revocation, for example, by publishing keys at a predefined location using the JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) format [RFC7517]. Verifiers need to ensure that they are not using expired or revoked keys for signature verification using reasonable and appropriate means for the given key-distribution method. 9.9. Forwarding Credentials Any entity in possession of an SD-JWT (including an SD-JWT extracted from an SD-JWT+KB) can forward it to any third party that does not enforce Key Binding. When doing so, that entity may remove Disclosures such that the receiver learns only a subset of the claims contained in the original SD-JWT. For example, a device manufacturer might produce an SD-JWT containing information about upstream and downstream supply chain contributors. Each supply chain party can verify only the claims that were selectively disclosed to them by an upstream party, and they can choose to further reduce the disclosed claims when presenting to a downstream party. In some scenarios this behavior could be desirable, but if it is not, Issuers need to support and Verifiers need to enforce Key Binding. 9.10. Integrity of SD-JWTs and SD-JWT+KBs With an SD-JWT, the Issuer-signed JWT is integrity-protected by the Issuer's signature, and the values of the Disclosures are integrity- protected by the digests included therein. The specific set of Disclosures, however, is not integrity-protected; the SD-JWT can be modified by adding or removing Disclosures and still be valid. With an SD-JWT+KB, the set of selected Disclosures is integrity- protected. The signature in the Key Binding JWT covers a specific SD-JWT, with a specific Issuer-signed JWT and a specific set of Disclosures. Thus, the signature on the Key Binding JWT, in addition to proving Key Binding, also assures the authenticity and integrity of the set of Disclosures the Holder disclosed. The set of Disclosures in an SD-JWT+KB is the set that the Holder intended to send; no intermediate party has added, removed, or modified the list of Disclosures. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 45] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 9.11. Explicit Typing Section 3.11 of [RFC8725] describes the use of explicit typing as one mechanism to prevent confusion attacks (described in Section 2.8 of [RFC8725]) in which one kind of JWT is mistaken for another. SD-JWTs are also potentially subject to such confusion attacks, so in the absence of other techniques, it is RECOMMENDED that application profiles of SD-JWT specify an explicit type by including the typ header parameter when the SD-JWT is issued, and for Verifiers to check this value. When explicit typing using the typ header is employed for an SD-JWT, it is RECOMMENDED that a media type name of the format "application/ example+sd-jwt" be used, where "example" is replaced by the identifier for the specific kind of SD-JWT. The definition of typ in Section 4.1.9 of [RFC7515] recommends that the "application/" prefix be omitted, so "example+sd-jwt" would be the value of the typ header parameter. Use of the cty content type header parameter to indicate the content type of the SD-JWT payload can also be used to distinguish different types of JSON objects, or different kinds of JWT Claim Sets. 10. Privacy Considerations The privacy principles of [ISO.29100] should be adhered to. 10.1. Unlinkability Unlinkability is a property whereby adversaries are prevented from correlating credential presentations of the same user beyond the user's consent. Without unlinkability, an adversary might be able to learn more about the user than the user intended to disclose, for example: * Cooperating Verifiers might want to track users across services to build advertising profiles. * Issuers might want to track where users present their credentials to enable surveillance. * After a data breach at multiple Verifiers, publicly available information might allow linking identifiable information presented to Verifier A with originally anonymous information presented to Verifier B, therefore revealing the identities of users of Verifier B. The following types of unlinkability are considered here: Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 46] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 * Presentation Unlinkability: A Verifier should not be able to link two presentations of the same credential. * Verifier/Verifier Unlinkability: Two colluding Verifiers should not be able to learn that they have received presentations of the same credential. * Issuer/Verifier Unlinkability (Honest Verifier): An Issuer of a credential should not be able to know that a user presented the credential to a certain Verifier that is not behaving maliciously. * Issuer/Verifier Unlinkability (Colluding/Compromised Verifier): An Issuer of a credential should not be able to tell that a user presented the credential to a certain Verifier, even if the Verifier colludes with the Issuer or becomes compromised and leaks stored credentials from presentations. In all cases, unlinkability is limited to cases where the disclosed claims do not contain information that directly or indirectly identifies the user. For example, when a taxpayer identification number is contained in the disclosed claims, the Issuer and Verifier can easily link the user's transactions. However, when the user only discloses a birthdate to one Verifier and a postal code to another Verifier, the two Verifiers should not be able to determine that they were interacting with the same user. Issuer/Verifier unlinkability with a colluding or compromised Verifier cannot be achieved in salted-hash based selective disclosure approaches, such as SD-JWT, as the issued credential with the Issuer's signature is directly presented to the Verifier, who can forward it to the Issuer. In considering Issuer/Verifier unlinkability, it is important to note the potential for an asymmetric power dynamic between Issuers and Verifiers. This dynamic can compel an otherwise honest Verifier into collusion. For example, a governmental Issuer might have the authority to mandate that a Verifier report back information about the credentials presented to it. Legal requirements could further enforce this, explicitly undermining Issuer/Verifier unlinkability. Similarly, a large service provider issuing credentials might implicitly pressure Verifiers into collusion by incentivizing participation in their larger ecosystem. Deployers of SD-JWT must be aware of these potential power dynamics, mitigate them as much as possible, and/or make the risks transparent to the End-User. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 47] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 Contrary to that, Issuer/Verifier unlinkability with an honest Verifier can generally be achieved. However, a callback from the Verifier to the Issuer, such as a revocation check, could potentially disclose information about the credential's usage to the Issuer. Where such callbacks are necessary, they MUST be executed in a manner that preserves privacy and does not disclose details about the credential to the Issuer. It is important to note that the timing of such requests could potentially serve as a side-channel. Verifier/Verifier unlinkability and presentation unlinkability can be achieved using batch issuance: A batch of credentials based on the same claims is issued to the Holder instead of just a single credential. The Holder can then use a different credential for each Verifier or even for each session with a Verifier. New key binding keys and salts MUST be used for each credential in the batch to ensure that the Verifiers cannot link the credentials using these values. Likewise, claims carrying time information, like iat, exp, and nbf, MUST either be randomized within a time period considered appropriate (e.g., randomize iat within the last 24 hours and calculate exp accordingly) or rounded (e.g., rounded down to the beginning of the day). 10.2. Storage of Signed User Data Wherever End-User data is stored, it represents a potential target for an attacker. This target can be of particularly high value when the data is signed by a trusted authority like an official national identity service. For example, in OpenID Connect [OpenID.Core], signed ID Tokens can be stored by Relying Parties. In the case of SD-JWT, Holders have to store SD-JWTs, and Issuers and Verifiers may decide to do so as well. Not surprisingly, a leak of such data risks revealing private data of End-Users to third parties. Signed End-User data, the authenticity of which can be easily verified by third parties, further exacerbates the risk. As discussed in Section 9.5, leaked SD-JWTs may also allow attackers to impersonate Holders unless Key Binding is enforced and the attacker does not have access to the Holder's cryptographic keys. Altogether, leaked SD-JWT credentials may have a high monetary value on black markets. Due to these risks, systems implementing SD-JWT SHOULD be designed to minimize the amount of data that is stored. All involved parties SHOULD store SD-JWTs containing privacy-sensitive data only for as long as needed, including in log files. After Issuance, Issuers SHOULD NOT store the Issuer-signed JWT or the respective Disclosures if they contain privacy-sensitive data. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 48] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 Holders SHOULD store SD-JWTs only in encrypted form, and, wherever possible, use hardware-backed encryption in particular for the private Key Binding key. Decentralized storage of data, e.g., on End-User devices, SHOULD be preferred for End-User credentials over centralized storage. Expired SD-JWTs SHOULD be deleted as soon as possible. After Verification, Verifiers SHOULD NOT store the Issuer-signed JWT or the respective Disclosures if they contain privacy-sensitive data. It may be sufficient to store the result of the verification and any End-User data that is needed for the application. 10.3. Confidentiality during Transport If the SD-JWT is transmitted over an insecure channel during issuance or presentation, an adversary may be able to intercept and read the End-User's personal data or correlate the information with previous uses of the same SD-JWT. Usually, transport protocols for issuance and presentation of credentials are designed to protect the confidentiality of the transmitted data, for example, by requiring the use of TLS. This specification therefore considers the confidentiality of the data to be provided by the transport protocol and does not specify any encryption mechanism. Implementers MUST ensure that the transport protocol provides confidentiality if the privacy of End-User data or correlation attacks by passive observers are a concern. To encrypt the SD-JWT when transmitted over an insecure channel, implementers MAY use JSON Web Encryption (JWE) [RFC7516] by nesting the SD-JWT as the plaintext payload of a JWE. Especially, when an SD-JWT is transmitted via a URL and information may be stored/cached in the browser or end up in web server logs, the SD-JWT SHOULD be encrypted using JWE. 10.4. Decoy Digests The use of decoy digests is RECOMMENDED when the number of claims (or the existence of particular claims) can be a side-channel disclosing information about otherwise undisclosed claims. In particular, if a claim in an SD-JWT is present only if a certain condition is met (e.g., a membership number is only contained if the End-User is a member of a group), the Issuer SHOULD add decoy digests when the condition is not met. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 49] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 Decoy digests increase the size of the SD-JWT. The number of decoy digests (or whether to use them at all) is a trade-off between the size of the SD-JWT and the privacy of the End-User's data. 10.5. Issuer Identifier An Issuer issuing only one type of SD-JWT might have privacy implications, because if the Holder has an SD-JWT issued by that Issuer, its type and claim names can be determined. For example, if the National Cancer Institute only issued SD-JWTs with cancer registry information, it is possible to deduce that the Holder owning its SD-JWT is a cancer patient. Moreover, the issuer identifier alone may reveal information about the user. For example, when a military organization or a drug rehabilitation center issues a vaccine credential, verifiers can deduce that the holder is a military member or may have a substance use disorder. To mitigate this issue, a group of issuers may elect to use a common Issuer identifier.

Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 85] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 The public key used to validate a Key Binding JWT can be found in the examples as the content of the cnf claim. Appendix B. Disclosure Format Considerations As described in Section 4.2, the Disclosure structure is JSON containing salt and the cleartext content of a claim, which is base64url encoded. The encoded value is the input used to calculate a digest for the respective claim. The inclusion of digest value in the signed JWT ensures the integrity of the claim value. Using encoded content as the input to the integrity mechanism is conceptually similar to the approach in JWS and particularly useful when the content, like JSON, can have different representations but is semantically equivalent, thus avoiding canonicalization. Some further discussion of the considerations around this design decision follows. When receiving an SD-JWT, a Verifier must be able to re-compute digests of the disclosed claim values and, given the same input values, obtain the same digest values as signed by the Issuer. Usually, JSON-based formats transport claim values as simple properties of a JSON object such as this: ... "family_name": "Möbius", "address": { "street_address": "Schulstr. 12", "locality": "Schulpforta" } ... However, a problem arises when computation over the data needs to be performed and verified, like signing or computing digests. Common signature schemes require the same byte string as input to the signature verification as was used for creating the signature. In the digest approach outlined above, the same problem exists: for the Issuer and the Verifier to arrive at the same digest, the same byte string must be hashed. JSON, however, does not prescribe a unique encoding for data, but allows for variations in the encoded string. The data above, for example, can be encoded as Fett, et al.

The two representations of the value in family_name are very different on the byte-level, but yield equivalent objects. Same for the representations of address, varying in white space and order of elements in the object. The variations in white space, ordering of object properties, and encoding of Unicode characters are all allowed by the JSON specification, including further variations, e.g., concerning floating-point numbers, as described in [RFC8785]. Variations can be introduced whenever JSON data is serialized or deserialized and unless dealt with, will lead to different digests and the inability to verify signatures. There are generally two approaches to deal with this problem: 1. Canonicalization: The data is transferred in JSON format, potentially introducing variations in its representation, but is transformed into a canonical form before computing a digest. Both the Issuer and the Verifier must use the same canonicalization algorithm to arrive at the same byte string for computing a digest. 2. Source string hardening: Instead of transferring data in a format that may introduce variations, a representation of the data is serialized. This representation is then used as the hashing input at the Verifier, but also transferred to the Verifier and used for the same digest calculation there. This means that the Verifier can easily compute and check the digest of the byte string before finally deserializing and accessing the data. Mixed approaches are conceivable, i.e., transferring both the original JSON data plus a string suitable for computing a digest, but such approaches can easily lead to undetected inconsistencies resulting in time-of-check-time-of-use type security vulnerabilities. Fett, et al. Expires 21 April 2025 [Page 87] Internet-Draft SD-JWT October 2024 In this specification, the source string hardening approach is used, as it allows for simple and reliable interoperability without the requirement for a canonicalization library. To harden the source string, any serialization format that supports the necessary data types could be used in theory, like protobuf, msgpack, or pickle. In this specification, JSON is used and plaintext contents of each Disclosure are encoded using base64url-encoding for transport. This approach means that SD-JWTs can be implemented purely based on widely available JWT, JSON, and Base64 encoding and decoding libraries. A Verifier can then easily check the digest over the source string before extracting the original JSON data. Variations in the encoding of the source string are implicitly tolerated by the Verifier, as the digest is computed over a predefined byte string and not over a JSON object. It is important to note that the Disclosures are neither intended nor suitable for direct consumption by an application that needs to access the disclosed claim values after the verification by the Verifier. The Disclosures are only intended to be used by a Verifier to check the digests over the source strings and to extract the original JSON data. The original JSON data is then used by the application.
