Test Code .............................................14 1. Introduction The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has recently specified the Cipher-based Message Authentication Code (CMAC). CMAC [NIST-CMAC] is a keyed hash function that is based on a symmetric key block cipher, such as the Advanced Encryption Standard [NIST-AES]. CMAC is equivalent to the One-Key CBC MAC1 (OMAC1) submitted by Iwata and Kurosawa [OMAC1a, OMAC1b]. OMAC1 is an improvement of the eXtended Cipher Block Chaining mode (XCBC) submitted by Black and Rogaway [XCBCa, XCBCb], which itself is an improvement of the basic Cipher Block Chaining-Message Authentication Code (CBC-MAC). XCBC efficiently addresses the security deficiencies of CBC-MAC, and OMAC1 efficiently reduces the key size of XCBC. AES-CMAC provides stronger assurance of data integrity than a checksum or an error-detecting code. The verification of a checksum or an error-detecting code detects only accidental modifications of the data, while CMAC is designed to detect intentional, unauthorized modifications of the data, as well as accidental modifications. AES-CMAC achieves a security goal similar to that of HMAC [RFC-HMAC]. Since AES-CMAC is based on a symmetric key block cipher, AES, and HMAC is based on a hash function, such as SHA-1, AES-CMAC is appropriate for information systems in which AES is more readily available than a hash function. This memo specifies the authentication algorithm based on CMAC with AES-128. This new authentication algorithm is named AES-CMAC. Song, et al. Informational PAGE 2 top

RFC 4493 The AES-CMAC Algorithm June 2006 2. Specification of AES-CMAC 2.1. Basic Definitions The following table describes the basic definitions necessary to explain the specification of AES-CMAC. x || y Concatenation. x || y is the string x concatenated with the string y. 0000 || 1111 is 00001111. x XOR y Exclusive-OR operation. For two equal length strings, x and y, x XOR y is their bit-wise exclusive-OR. ceil(x) Ceiling function. The smallest integer no smaller than x. ceil(3.5) is 4. ceil(5) is 5. x << 1 Left-shift of the string x by 1 bit. The most significant bit disappears, and a zero comes into the least significant bit. 10010001 << 1 is 00100010. 0^n The string that consists of n zero-bits. 0^3 means 000 in binary format. 10^4 means 10000 in binary format. 10^i means 1 followed by i-times repeated zeros. MSB(x) The most-significant bit of the string x. MSB(10010000) means 1. padding(x) 10^i padded output of input x. It is described in detail in section 2.4. Key 128-bit (16-octet) long key for AES-128. Denoted by K. First subkey 128-bit (16-octet) long first subkey, derived through the subkey generation algorithm from the key K. Denoted by K1. Song, et al. Informational PAGE 3 top

RFC 4493 The AES-CMAC Algorithm June 2006 Second subkey 128-bit (16-octet) long second subkey, derived through the subkey generation algorithm from the key K. Denoted by K2. Message A message to be authenticated. Denoted by M. The message can be null, which means that the length of M is 0. Message length The length of the message M in octets. Denoted by len. The minimum value of the length can be 0. The maximum value of the length is not specified in this document. AES-128(K,M) AES-128(K,M) is the 128-bit ciphertext of AES-128 for a 128-bit key, K, and a 128-bit message, M. MAC A 128-bit string that is the output of AES-CMAC. Denoted by T. Validating the MAC provides assurance of the integrity and authenticity of the message from the source. MAC length By default, the length of the output of AES-CMAC is 128 bits. It is possible to truncate the MAC. The result of the truncation should be taken in most significant bits first order. The MAC length must be specified before the communication starts, and it must not be changed during the lifetime of the key. 2.2. Overview AES-CMAC uses the Advanced Encryption Standard [NIST-AES] as a building block. To generate a MAC, AES-CMAC takes a secret key, a message of variable length, and the length of the message in octets as inputs and returns a fixed-bit string called a MAC. The core of AES-CMAC is the basic CBC-MAC. For a message, M, to be authenticated, the CBC-MAC is applied to M. There are two cases of operation in CMAC. Figure 2.1 illustrates the operation of CBC-MAC in both cases. If the size of the input message block is equal to a positive multiple of the block size (namely, 128 bits), the last block shall be exclusive-OR'ed with K1 before processing. Otherwise, the last block shall be padded with 10^i (notation is described in section 2.1) and exclusive-OR'ed with K2. The result of the previous Song, et al. Informational PAGE 4 top

Illustration of the two cases of AES-CMAC AES_K is AES-128 with key K. The message M is divided into blocks M_1,...,M_n, where M_i is the i-th message block. The length of M_i is 128 bits for i = 1,...,n-1, and the length of the last block, M_n, is less than or equal to 128 bits. K1 is the subkey for the case (a), and K2 is the subkey for the case (b). K1 and K2 are generated by the subkey generation algorithm described in section 2.3. 2.3. Subkey Generation Algorithm The subkey generation algorithm, Generate_Subkey(), takes a secret key, K, which is just the key for AES-128. The outputs of the subkey generation algorithm are two subkeys, K1 and K2. We write (K1,K2) := Generate_Subkey(K). Subkeys K1 and K2 are used in both MAC generation and MAC verification algorithms. K1 is used for the case where the length of the last block is equal to the block length. K2 is used for the case where the length of the last block is less than the block length. Song, et al.

Algorithm Generate_Subkey In step 1, AES-128 with key K is applied to an all-zero input block. In step 2, K1 is derived through the following operation: If the most significant bit of L is equal to 0, K1 is the left-shift of L by 1 bit. Otherwise, K1 is the exclusive-OR of const_Rb and the left-shift of L by 1 bit. In step 3, K2 is derived through the following operation: If the most significant bit of K1 is equal to 0, K2 is the left-shift of K1 by 1 bit. Otherwise, K2 is the exclusive-OR of const_Rb and the left-shift of K1 by 1 bit. In step 4, (K1,K2) := Generate_Subkey(K) is returned. Song, et al. Informational PAGE 6 top

RFC 4493 The AES-CMAC Algorithm June 2006 The mathematical meaning of the procedures in steps 2 and 3, including const_Rb, can be found in [OMAC1a]. 2.4. MAC Generation Algorithm The MAC generation algorithm, AES-CMAC(), takes three inputs, a secret key, a message, and the length of the message in octets. The secret key, denoted by K, is just the key for AES-128. The message and its length in octets are denoted by M and len, respectively. The message M is denoted by the sequence of M_i, where M_i is the i-th message block. That is, if M consists of n blocks, then M is written as - M = M_1 || M_2 || ... || M_{n-1} || M_n The length of M_i is 128 bits for i = 1,...,n-1, and the length of the last block M_n is less than or equal to 128 bits. The output of the MAC generation algorithm is a 128-bit string, called a MAC, which is used to validate the input message. The MAC is denoted by T, and we write T := AES-CMAC(K,M,len). Validating the MAC provides assurance of the integrity and authenticity of the message from the source. It is possible to truncate the MAC. According to [NIST-CMAC], at least a 64-bit MAC should be used as protection against guessing attacks. The result of truncation should be taken in most significant bits first order. The block length of AES-128 is 128 bits (16 octets). There is a special treatment if the length of the message is not a positive multiple of the block length. The special treatment is to pad M with the bit-string 10^i to adjust the length of the last block up to the block length. For an input string x of r-octets, where 0 <= r < 16, the padding function, padding(x), is defined as follows: - padding(x) = x || 10^i where i is 128-8*r-1 That is, padding(x) is the concatenation of x and a single '1', followed by the minimum number of '0's, so that the total length is equal to 128 bits. Figure 2.3 describes the MAC generation algorithm. Song, et al. Informational PAGE 7 top

RFC 4493 The AES-CMAC Algorithm June 2006 In step 1, subkeys K1 and K2 are derived from K through the subkey generation algorithm. In step 2, the number of blocks, n, is calculated. The number of blocks is the smallest integer value greater than or equal to the quotient determined by dividing the length parameter by the block length, 16 octets. In step 3, the length of the input message is checked. If the input length is 0 (null), the number of blocks to be processed shall be 1, and the flag shall be marked as not-complete-block (false). Otherwise, if the last block length is 128 bits, the flag is marked as complete-block (true); else mark the flag as not-complete-block (false). In step 4, M_last is calculated by exclusive-OR'ing M_n and one of the previously calculated subkeys. If the last block is a complete block (true), then M_last is the exclusive-OR of M_n and K1. Otherwise, M_last is the exclusive-OR of padding(M_n) and K2. In step 5, the variable X is initialized. In step 6, the basic CBC-MAC is applied to M_1,...,M_{n-1},M_last. In step 7, the 128-bit MAC, T := AES-CMAC(K,M,len), is returned. If necessary, the MAC is truncated before it is returned. 2.5. MAC Verification Algorithm The verification of the MAC is simply done by a MAC recomputation. We use the MAC generation algorithm, which is described in section 2.4. The MAC verification algorithm, Verify_MAC(), takes four inputs, a secret key, a message, the length of the message in octets, and the received MAC. These are denoted by K, M, len, and T', respectively. The output of the MAC verification algorithm is either INVALID or VALID. Figure 2.4 describes the MAC verification algorithm. Song, et al.

Algorithm Verify_MAC In step 1, T* is derived from K, M, and len through the MAC generation algorithm. In step 2, T* and T' are compared. If T* is equal to T', then return VALID; otherwise return INVALID. If the output is INVALID, then the message is definitely not authentic, i.e., it did not originate from a source that executed the generation process on the message to produce the purported MAC. If the output is VALID, then the design of the AES-CMAC provides assurance that the message is authentic and, hence, was not corrupted in transit; however, this assurance, as for any MAC algorithm, is not absolute. 3. Security Considerations The security provided by AES-CMAC is built on the strong cryptographic algorithm AES. However, as is true with any cryptographic algorithm, part of its strength lies in the secret key, K, and the correctness of the implementation in all of the participating systems. If the secret key is compromised or inappropriately shared, it guarantees neither authentication nor integrity of message at all. The secret key shall be generated in a way that meets the pseudo randomness requirement of RFC 4086 [RFC 4086] and should be kept safe. If and only if AES-CMAC is used Song, et al.
