Introduction The OpenPGP development community, in particular the e-mail development community, benefits from sharing samples of signed and/or encrypted data. Often the exact key material used does not matter because the properties being tested pertain to implementation correctness, completeness or interoperability of the overall system. However, without access to the relevant secret key material, a sample is useless. This document defines a small set of OpenPGP certificates and secret keys for use when generating or operating on such samples. Samples are provided for four "personas", Alice, Bob, Carol, and David. Alice uses a version 4 certificate, using legacy framing for the Ed25519 elliptic curve algorithm. Bob also uses a version 4 certificate, but he fears a potential quantum computer that might attack 256-bit ECC security, and has a 3072-bit RSA key which he thinks might force an adversary with a quantum computer to spend more resources attacking. Carol is a bit behind the times and has a DSA/ElGamal key, which is deprecated in . David is a minimalist, and uses version 6 certificate offering mainly mandatory-to-implement algorithms from .

Requirements Language The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.

Terminology This document makes use of terminology from . For subtle terminology changes from older versions of OpenPGP, see .

Security Considerations The keys presented in this document should be considered compromised and insecure, because the secret key material is published and therefore not secret. Applications which maintain blacklists of invalid key material SHOULD include these keys in their lists.

IANA Considerations IANA has nothing to do for this document.

In many standards track documents several words are used to signify the requirements in the specification. These words are often capitalized. This document defines these words as they should be interpreted in IETF documents. This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. RFC 2119 specifies common key words that may be used in protocol specifications. This document aims to reduce the ambiguity by clarifying that only UPPERCASE usage of the key words have the defined special meanings. This document specifies the message formats used in OpenPGP. OpenPGP provides encryption with public key or symmetric cryptographic algorithms, digital signatures, compression, and key management. This document is maintained in order to publish all necessary information needed to develop interoperable applications based on the OpenPGP format. It is not a step-by-step cookbook for writing an application. It describes only the format and methods needed to read, check, generate, and write conforming packets crossing any network. It does not deal with storage and implementation questions. It does, however, discuss implementation issues necessary to avoid security flaws. This document obsoletes RFCs 4880 ("OpenPGP Message Format"), 5581 ("The Camellia Cipher in OpenPGP"), and 6637 ("Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) in OpenPGP").
