The IESG has received a request from the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption WG (jose) to consider the following document: - 'Use of Hybrid Public Key Encryption (HPKE) with JSON Web Encryption (JWE)' <draft-ietf-jose-hpke-encrypt-17.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2026-05-27. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This specification defines how to use Hybrid Public Key Encryption (HPKE) with JSON Web Encryption (JWE). HPKE enables public key encryption of arbitrary-sized plaintexts to a recipient's public key, and provides security against adaptive chosen ciphertext attacks. This specification chooses a specific subset of the HPKE features to use with JWE. This specification updates RFC 7516 (JWE) to enable use of Integrated Encryption as a Key Management Mode. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-jose-hpke-encrypt/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. The document contains these normative downward references. See RFC 3967 for additional information: rfc8937: Randomness Improvements for Security Protocols (Informational - Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) stream) _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
