The IESG has received a request from the Software Updates for Internet of Things WG (suit) to consider the following document: - 'A Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR)-based Serialization Format for the Software Updates for Internet of Things (SUIT) Manifest' <draft-ietf-suit-manifest-25.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 2024-02-21. 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 describes the format of a manifest. A manifest is a bundle of metadata about code/data obtained by a recipient (chiefly the firmware for an IoT device), where to find the code/data, the devices to which it applies, and cryptographic information protecting the manifest. Software updates and Trusted Invocation both tend to use sequences of common operations, so the manifest encodes those sequences of operations, rather than declaring the metadata. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-suit-manifest/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/5921/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/5892/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/5075/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/3799/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/6008/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/5881/ The document contains these normative downward references.
