The RSA Key Encapsulation Mechanism (RSA-KEM) algorithm is a one-pass
(store-and-forward) cryptographic mechanism for an originator to
securely send keying material to a recipient using the recipient's
RSA public key. The RSA-KEM algorithm is specified in Clause 11.5 of
ISO/IEC: 18033-2:2006. This document specifies the conventions for
using the RSA-KEM algorithm as a standalone KEM algorithm and the
conventions for using the RSA-KEM algorithm with the Cryptographic
Message Syntax (CMS) using KEMRecipientInfo as specified in RFC 9629.
This document obsoletes RFC 5990.
This document is a product of the Limited Additional Mechanisms for PKIX and
SMIME Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
