   1.   This ballot is being cross-posted to the CABF public mailing in line 
with the consensus from last Thursday’s call that it is important everyone is 
aware of the ballot, and that not everyone is on the SCWG list yet.
   2.   I promised an IETF independent stream draft for the same proposal, so 
it can get feedback from those at IETF.  I still intend to do so, but I am 
working with a colleague on setting up a github account for DigiCert IETF 
efforts to make it easier for others to collaborate with us on IETF 
submissions.  I anticipate we will have that set up and the draft submitted 
some time next week.  The IETF draft will allow IETF to review the method and 
make suggested improvements.  It should not block adoption of the current 
proposal by CABF.  DigiCert intends to submit a ballot to adopt IETF’s 
improvements once the IETF process is complete.



   Ballot SC2: CAA Contact Property and Associated Validation Methods

   Purpose of Ballot: Increasingly, contact information is not available in 
WHOIS due to concerns about potential GDPR violations.  This ballot specifies a 
method by which domain holders can publish their contact information via DNS, 
and how CAs can use that information for validating domain control.

   The following motion has been proposed by Tim Hollebeek of DigiCert and 
endorsed by Bruce Morton of Entrust and Doug Beattie of GlobalSign.

   --- MOTION BEGINS ---

   This ballot modifies the “Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and 
Management of Publicly-Trusted Certificates” as follows, based on Version 1.5.7:

   Add Section 3.2.2.4.13: Domain Owner Email published in DNS

   Confirm the Applicant's control over the FQDN by (i) sending an email to a 
DNS domain name holder, (ii) including a Random Value in the email, and (iii) 
receiving a confirming response utilizing the Random Value. The CA MUST send 
the email to an email address found in the CAA Contact property record as 
defined in Appendix B.



   Each email MAY confirm control of multiple FQDNs, provided the email address 
used is a DNS contact email address for each FQDN being confirmed.



   The Random Value SHALL be unique in each email. The email MAY be re-sent in 
its entirety, including the re-use of the Random Value, provided that its 
entire contents and recipient SHALL remain unchanged. The Random Value SHALL 
remain valid for use in a confirming response for no more than 30 days from its 
creation. The CPS MAY specify a shorter validity period for Random Values.

   Note: Once the FQDN has been validated using this method, the CA MAY also 
issue Certificates for other FQDNs that end with all the labels of the 
validated FQDN. This method is suitable for validating Wildcard Domain Names.

   Add Section 3.2.2.4.14: Domain Owner Phone published in DNS



   Confirm the Applicant's control over the FQDN by calling the DNS domain name 
holder phone number and obtaining a response confirming the Applicant's request 
for validation of the FQDN. The CA MUST place the call to a phone number 
identified in the CAA Contact property record as defined in Appendix B.



   Each phone call SHALL be made to a single number and MAY confirm control of 
multiple FQDNs, provided that the phone number is identified by the DNS contact 
as a valid contact method for every Base Domain Name being verified using the 
phone call.

   Note: Once the FQDN has been validated using this method, the CA MAY also 
issue Certificates for other FQDNs that end with all the labels of the 
validated FQDN. This method is suitable for validating Wildcard Domain Names.



   Add Section 3.2.2.4.15: Domain Owner Email published in TXT record



   Confirm the Applicant's control over the FQDN by (i) sending an email to a 
DNS domain name holder, (ii) including a Random Value in the email, and (iii) 
receiving a confirming response utilizing the Random Value. The CA MUST send 
the email to an email address found in the DNS TXT record as defined in 
Appendix B.



   Each email MAY confirm control of multiple FQDNs, provided the email address 
used is a DNS contact email address for each FQDN being confirmed.



   The Random Value SHALL be unique in each email. The email MAY be re-sent in 
its entirety, including the re-use of the Random Value, provided that its 
entire contents and recipient SHALL remain unchanged. The Random Value SHALL 
remain valid for use in a confirming response for no more than 30 days from its 
creation. The CPS MAY specify a shorter validity period for Random Values.

   Note: Once the FQDN has been validated using this method, the CA MAY also 
issue Certificates for other FQDNs that end with all the labels of the 
validated FQDN. This method is suitable for validating Wildcard Domain Names.



   ##### 3.2.2.4.16 Domain Owner Phone published in TXT record



   Confirm the Applicant's control over the FQDN by calling the DNS domain name 
holder phone number and obtaining a response confirming the Applicant's request 
for validation of the FQDN. The CA MUST place the call to a phone number 
identified in the DNS TXT record defined in Appendix B.



   Each phone call SHALL be made to a single number and MAY confirm control of 
multiple FQDNs, provided that the phone number is identified by the DNS contact 
as a valid contact method for every Base Domain Name being verified using the 
phone call.

   Note: Once the FQDN has been validated using this method, the CA MAY also 
issue Certificates for other FQDNs that end with all the labels of the 
validated FQDN. This method is suitable for validating Wildcard Domain Names.

   Add Appendix B: CAA Contact Tag

   The syntax for the contact property is similar to the iodef property.  It 
allows domain owners to publish contact information in DNS in addition to WHOIS 
for the purpose of validating domain control.

   CAA contact Property



   contact <URL> :  The contact property entry specifies the authorized means 
of contacting the holder of the domain or another party who is authorized to 
approve issuance of certificates for the domain.



   The contact property specifies a means of contacting the domain holder, or 
another party that is authorized to approve issuance of certificates for the 
domain in question.

   The contact property takes a URL as its parameter.  The following URL scheme 
types SHOULD be implemented:

   mailto: An SMTP email address where the domain holder or other authorized 
party can be contacted.

   tel: A telephone number where the domain holder or other authorized party 
can be contacted.



   Schemes other than "mailto:"; or "tel:" MUST NOT be used.  Telephone numbers 
MUST include the country code and be global phone numbers as defined by RFC 
3966.



   The following is an example where the holder of the domain specified the 
contact property using both an email address and a phone number.



   $ORIGIN example.com<http://example.com>

   .              CAA 0 issue “ca.example.net<http://ca.example.net>”

   .              CAA 0 contact 
“mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>”

   .              CAA 0 contact “tel:+1-310-555-1212”



   ## Support for Legacy Systems



   Some systems still do not have sufficient support for CAA records.  To allow 
users of those systems to specify contact information, a legacy format using 
text records is allowed.  The CAA contact property SHOULD be used instead of 
TXT records, where feasible.



   The DNS TXT record MUST be placed on the "_caa_contact" subdomain of the 
domain being validated.  The DNS record MUST be named 
"domain-authorization-email" or "domain-authorization-phone".  The value of 
"domain-authorization-email" MUST contain a valid email address, or it cannot 
be used.  The value of "domain-authorization-phone" must be a global phone 
number, including country code, as defined in RFC 3966 or it cannot be used.
