Abstract:
This document describes three gossiping mechanisms for Certificate
Transparency (CT) [RFC6962]: SCT Feedback, STH Pollination and
Trusted Auditor Relationship.
SCT Feedback enables HTTPS clients to share Signed Certificate
Timestamps (SCTs) (Section 3.2 of [RFC6962]) with CT auditors in a
privacy-preserving manner by sending SCTs to originating HTTPS
servers which in turn share them with CT auditors.
In STH Pollination, HTTPS clients use HTTPS servers as pools sharing
Signed Tree Heads (STHs) (Section 3.5 of [RFC6962]) with other
connecting clients in the hope that STHs will find their way to
auditors and monitors.
HTTPS clients in a Trusted Auditor Relationship share SCTs and STHs
with trusted auditors or monitors directly, with expectations of
privacy sensitive data being handled according to whatever privacy
policy is agreed on between client and trusted party.
