Hi Med,

Ah. Thanks. I forgot about that issue :-(
Let me carefully avoid to re-invest any of my time in this process issue. Do what's right. Hopefully, we are not going towards a path where we need a bis document each time the template is changed...

Regards, Benoit

Hi Benoît,

I don’t think removing the template from the doc is a good idea.

FWIW, one of the goals set for the bis was to fix an issue raised by the IETF Trust about the template. Please refer, e.g., to https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/netmod/gBEuz3mgOuyghmeQk7T4so_ZxF8/ or https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/116/materials/slides-116-netmod-05-security-considerations-template-for-yang-module-documents-00.

Cheers,

Med

Dear all,

I read section 3.7 "security considerations section" of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-netmod-rfc8407bis/ <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-netmod-rfc8407bis/>
This section must only contain the first two paragraphs:

    Each specification that defines one or more modules MUST contain a

        section that discusses security considerations relevant to those

        modules.

        Unless the modules comply with [RFC8791] or define YANG extensions

        (e.g., [RFC7952]), the security section MUST be modeled after the

        latest approved template (available at

        <https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines>  
<https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines>).

The paragraph "In particular:" with the bullet points must be removed. What if the template changes in the future?

On top of that, I am absolutely against inserting the Template itself in this document (section 3.7.1.) Can we please trust the AD, the YANG-doctors, and the community to do the right thing, which means updating https://wiki.ietf.org/group/ops/yang-security-guidelines when it's required (as I mentioned on the mic., with community and IESG approval). I see it coming in case if we insert the security considerations template in this document: "Oh, if we need to update the template, we must revise the RFC8407bis". Let's avoid this, there is no problem to be solved here... and certainly not by introducing what seems to be yet another process.

Obviously, I read this sentence "Authors MUST check the web page at the URL listed above in case there is a more recent version available." As a YANG module writer, on top of reading this section, I have to see if there is a different template somewhere else?  A waste of time.

Regards, Benoit

    Hi Rob,

    I like the sections you added. If you can put a PR this would be
    helpful.

    For the readable one, I prefer to leave the OLD wording and not
    only focus on the “config false”

    (those are all the "config false" nodes, but also all other

    -- nodes, because they can also be read via operations like get or

    -- get-config)

    Thank you.

    Cheers,

    Med

    Hi Med,

    I was hoping for further changes to the template to try and make
    it a bit more explicit.

    I’ve given an example of what these changes would look like for
    readable/writable nodes, but the other parts of the template would
    need to be similarly updated, which I can have a go at, if you
    think that this is helpful and heading in the right direction.

    Currently on a separate branch/repo, but I could put a pull
    request in if that helps.
