Experimental Domain-Based Message Authentication, Reporting, and
Conformance (DMARC) Extension for Public Suffix Domains
Abstract
Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance
(DMARC), defined in RFC 7489, permits a domain-controlling
organization to express domain-level policies and preferences for
message validation, disposition, and reporting, which a mail-
receiving organization can use to improve mail handling.
DMARC distinguishes the portion of a name that is a Public Suffix
Domain (PSD), below which Organizational Domain names are created.
The basic DMARC capability allows Organizational Domains to specify
policies that apply to their subdomains, but it does not give that
capability to PSDs. This document describes an extension to DMARC to
fully enable DMARC functionality for PSDs.
Some implementations of DMARC consider a PSD to be ineligible for
DMARC enforcement. This specification addresses that case.

1. Introduction
DMARC [RFC7489] provides a mechanism for publishing organizational
policy information to email receivers. DMARC allows policy to be
specified for both individual domains and for Organizational Domains
and their subdomains within a single organization.
To determine the Organizational Domain for a message under
evaluation, and thus where to look for a policy statement, DMARC
makes use of a public suffix list. The process for doing this can be
found in Section 3.2 of the DMARC specification [RFC7489].
Currently, the most common public suffix list being used is the one
maintained by the Mozilla Foundation and made public at
<https://publicsuffix.org>.
In the basic DMARC model, Public Suffix Domains (PSDs) are not
Organizational Domains and are thus not subject to DMARC processing.
In DMARC, domains fall into one of three categories: Organizational
Domains, subdomains of Organizational Domains, or PSDs. A PSD can
only publish DMARC policy for itself and not for any subdomains under
it. In some cases, this limitation allows for the abuse of non-
existent organizational-level domains and hampers identification of
domain abuse in email.
This document specifies experimental updates to the DMARC
specification [RFC7489] in an attempt to mitigate this abuse.
1.1. Example
As an example, imagine a Top-Level Domain (TLD), ".example", that has
public subdomains for government and commercial use (".gov.example"
and ".com.example"). The maintainer of a list of such a PSD
structure would include entries for both of these subdomains, thereby
indicating that they are PSDs, below which Organizational Domains can
be registered. Suppose further that there exists a legitimate domain
called "tax.gov.example", registered within ".gov.example".
By exploiting the typically unauthenticated nature of email, there
are regular malicious campaigns to impersonate this organization that
use similar-looking ("cousin") domains such as "t4x.gov.example".
Such domains are not registered.
Within the ".gov.example" public suffix, use of DMARC has been
mandated, so "gov.example" publishes the following DMARC DNS record:
_dmarc.gov.example. IN TXT ( "v=DMARC1; p=reject;"
"rua=mailto:dmc@dmarc.svc.gov.example" )
This DMARC record provides policy and a reporting destination for
mail sent from @gov.example. Similarly, "tax.gov.example" will have
a DMARC record that specifies policy for mail sent from addresses
@tax.gov.example. However, due to DMARC's current method of
discovering and applying policy at the Organizational Domain level,
the non-existent Organizational Domain of @t4x.gov.example does not
and cannot fall under a DMARC policy.
Defensively registering all variants of "tax" is not a scalable
strategy. The intent of this specification, therefore, is to enhance
the DMARC discovery method by enabling an agent receiving such a
message to be able to determine that a relevant policy is present at
"gov.example", which is precluded by the current DMARC specification.
1.2. Discussion
This document provides a simple extension to [RFC7489] to allow
operators of Public Suffix Domains (PSDs) to:
* Express policy at the level of the PSD that covers all
Organizational Domains that do not explicitly publish DMARC
records
* Extend the DMARC policy query functionality to detect and process
such a policy
* Describe receiver feedback for such policies
* Provide controls to mitigate potential privacy considerations
associated with this extension
This document also provides a new DMARC tag to indicate requested
handling policy for non-existent subdomains. This is provided
specifically to support phased deployment of PSD DMARC but is
expected to be useful more generally. Undesired rejection risks for
mail purporting to be from domains that do not exist are
substantially lower than for those that do, so the operational risk
of requesting harsh policy treatment (e.g., reject) is lower.
As an additional benefit, the PSD DMARC extension clarifies existing
requirements. Based on the requirements of [RFC7489], DMARC should
function above the organizational level for exact domain matches
(i.e., if a DMARC record were published for "example", then mail from
example@example should be subject to DMARC processing). Testing has
revealed that this is not consistently applied in different
implementations.
There are two types of Public Suffix Operators (PSOs) for which this
extension would be useful and appropriate:
Branded PSDs (e.g., ".google"):
These domains are effectively Organizational Domains as discussed
in [RFC7489]. They control all subdomains of the tree. These are
effectively private domains but listed in the current public
suffix list. They are treated as public for DMARC purposes. They
require the same protections as DMARC Organizational Domains but
are currently unable to benefit from DMARC.
Multi-organization PSDs that require DMARC usage (e.g., ".bank"):
Because existing Organizational Domains using this PSD have their
own DMARC policy, the applicability of this extension is for non-
existent domains. The extension allows the brand protection
benefits of DMARC to extend to the entire PSD, including cousin
domains of registered organizations.
Due to the design of DMARC and the nature of the Internet email
architecture [RFC5598], there are interoperability issues associated
with DMARC deployment. These are discussed in "Interoperability
Issues between Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and
Conformance (DMARC) and Indirect Email Flows" [RFC7960]. These
issues are not typically applicable to PSDs since they (e.g., the
".gov.example" used above) do not typically send mail.
2. Terminology and Definitions
This section defines terms used in the rest of the document.
2.1. Conventions Used in This Document
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 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
2.2. Public Suffix Domain (PSD)
The global Internet Domain Name System (DNS) is documented in
numerous RFCs. It defines a tree of names starting with root, ".",
immediately below which are Top-Level Domain names such as ".com" and
".us". The domain name structure consists of a tree of names, each
of which is made of a sequence of words ("labels") separated by
period characters. The root of the tree is simply called ".". The
Internet community at large, through processes and policies external
to this work, selects points in this tree at which to register domain
names "owned" by independent organizations. Real-world examples are
".com", ".org", ".us", and ".gov.uk". Names at which such
registrations occur are called "Public Suffix Domains (PSDs)", and a
registration consists of a label selected by the registrant to which
a desirable PSD is appended. For example, "ietf.org" is a registered
domain name, and ".org" is its PSD.
2.3. Organizational Domain
The term "Organizational Domain" is defined in Section 3.2 of
[RFC7489].
2.4. Longest PSD
The longest PSD is the Organizational Domain with one label removed.
It names the immediate parent node of the Organizational Domain in
the DNS namespace tree.
2.5. Public Suffix Operator (PSO)
A Public Suffix Operator is an organization that manages operations
within a PSD, particularly the DNS records published for names at and
under that domain name.
2.6. PSO-Controlled Domain Names
PSO-Controlled Domain Names are names in the DNS that are managed by
a PSO and are not available for use as Organizational Domains. PSO-
Controlled Domain Names may have one (e.g., ".com") or more (e.g.,
".co.uk") name components, depending on PSD policy.
2.7. Non-existent Domains
For DMARC purposes, a non-existent domain is a domain for which there
is an NXDOMAIN or NODATA response for A, AAAA, and MX records. This
is a broader definition than that in [RFC8020].
3. PSD DMARC Updates to DMARC Requirements
To participate in this experiment, implementations should interpret
[RFC7489] as described in the following subsections.
3.1. General Updates
References to "Domain Owners" also apply to PSOs.
3.2. Changes in Section 6.3 ("General Record Format")
The following paragraph is added to this section. A new tag is added
after "fo":
| np: Requested Mail Receiver policy for non-existent subdomains
| (plain-text; OPTIONAL). Indicates the policy to be enacted by
| the Receiver at the request of the Domain Owner. It applies
| only to non-existent subdomains of the domain queried and not
| to either existing subdomains or the domain itself. Its syntax
| is identical to that of the "p" tag defined below. If the "np"
| tag is absent, the policy specified by the "sp" tag (if the
| "sp" tag is present) or the policy specified by the "p" tag (if
| the "sp" tag is absent) MUST be applied for non-existent
| subdomains. Note that "np" will be ignored for DMARC records
| published on subdomains of Organizational Domains and PSDs due
| to the effect of the DMARC policy discovery mechanism described
| in Section 6.6.3 of [RFC7489].
The following tag definitions from DMARC are updated:
p: The sentence 'Policy applies to the domain queried and to
subdomains, unless subdomain policy is explicitly described using
the "sp" tag' is updated to read 'Policy applies to the domain
queried and to subdomains, unless subdomain policy is explicitly
described using the "sp" or "np" tags.'
sp: The sentence 'If absent, the policy specified by the "p" tag
MUST be applied for subdomains' is updated to read 'If both the
"sp" tag is absent and the "np" tag is either absent or not
applicable, the policy specified by the "p" tag MUST be applied
for subdomains.'
3.3. Changes in Section 6.4 ("Formal Definition")
The ABNF [RFC5234] for DMARC is updated to include a new definition,
"dmarc-nprequest":
dmarc-nprequest = "np" *WSP "=" *WSP
( "none" / "quarantine" / "reject" )
The "dmarc-record" definition is also updated to include the
following:
dmarc-record = dmarc-version dmarc-sep
[dmarc-request]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-srequest]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-auri]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-furi]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-adkim]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-aspf]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-ainterval]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-fo]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-rfmt]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-percent]
[dmarc-sep]
[dmarc-sep dmarc-nprequest]
; components other than dmarc-version and
; dmarc-request may appear in any order
3.4. Changes in Section 6.5 ("Domain Owner Actions")
In addition to the DMARC Domain Owner actions, PSOs that require use
of DMARC and participate in PSD DMARC ought to make that information
available to receivers. This document is an experimental mechanism
for doing so; see the description in Appendix B.
3.5. Changes in Section 6.6.1 ("Extract Author Domain")
Experience with DMARC has shown that some implementations short-
circuit messages, bypassing DMARC policy application, when the domain
name extracted by the receiver (from the RFC5322.From domain) is on
the public suffix list used by the receiver. This negates the
capability being created by this specification. Therefore, the
following paragraph is appended to Section 6.6.1 of the DMARC
specification [RFC7489]:
| Note that domain names that appear on a public suffix list are not
| exempt from DMARC policy application and reporting.
3.6. Changes in Section 6.6.3 ("Policy Discovery")
A new step is added between steps 3 and 4:
| 3A. If the set is now empty and the longest PSD ([RFC9091],
| Section 2.4) of the Organizational Domain is one that the
| receiver has determined is acceptable for PSD DMARC (based on
| the data in one of the DMARC PSD Registry Examples described in
| Appendix B of [RFC9091]), the Mail Receiver MUST query the DNS
| for a DMARC TXT record at the DNS domain matching the longest
| PSD in place of the RFC5322.From domain in the message (if
| different). A possibly empty set of records is returned.
As an example, for a message with the Organizational Domain of
"example.compute.cloudcompany.com.example", the query for PSD DMARC
would use "compute.cloudcompany.com.example" as the longest PSD. The
receiver would check to see if that PSD is listed in the DMARC PSD
Registry, and if so, perform the policy lookup at
"_dmarc.compute.cloudcompany.com.example".
Note: Because the PSD policy query comes after the Organizational
Domain policy query, PSD policy is not used for Organizational
Domains that have published a DMARC policy. Specifically, this is
not a mechanism to provide feedback addresses (RUA/RUF) when an
Organizational Domain has declined to do so.
3.7. Changes in Section 7 ("DMARC Feedback")
The following paragraph is added to this section:
| Operational note for PSD DMARC: For PSOs, feedback for non-
| existent domains is desirable and useful, just as it is for org-
| level DMARC operators. See Section 4 of [RFC9091] for discussion
| of privacy considerations for PSD DMARC.
4. Privacy Considerations
These privacy considerations are developed based on the requirements
of [RFC6973]. Additionally, the privacy considerations of [RFC7489]
apply to the mechanisms described by this document. To participate
in this experiment, implementations should be aware of the privacy
considerations described in this section. If this experiment is
successful, this section should be incorporated into the "Privacy
Considerations" section as "Feedback Leakage".
Providing feedback reporting to PSOs can, in some cases, cause
information to leak out of an organization to the PSO. This leakage
could potentially be utilized as part of a program of pervasive
surveillance (see [RFC7624]). There are roughly three cases to
consider:
Single Organization PSDs (e.g., ".google"):
RUA and RUF reports based on PSD DMARC have the potential to
contain information about emails related to entities managed by
the organization. Since both the PSO and the Organizational
Domain Owners are common, there is no additional privacy risk for
either normal or non-existent domain reporting due to PSD DMARC.
Multi-organization PSDs that require DMARC usage (e.g., ".bank"):
Reports based on PSD DMARC will only be generated for domains that
do not publish a DMARC policy at the organizational or host level.
For domains that do publish the required DMARC policy records, the
feedback reporting addresses (RUA and RUF) of the organization (or
hosts) will be used. The only direct risk of feedback leakage for
these PSDs are for Organizational Domains that are out of
compliance with PSD policy. Data on non-existent cousin domains
would be sent to the PSO.
Multi-organization PSDs (e.g., ".com") that do not mandate DMARC
usage:
Privacy risks for Organizational Domains that have not deployed
DMARC within such PSDs are significant. For non-DMARC
Organizational Domains, all DMARC feedback will be directed to the
PSO. PSD DMARC is opt out (by publishing a DMARC record at the
Organizational Domain level) instead of opt in, which would be the
more desirable characteristic. This means that any non-DMARC
Organizational Domain would have its Feedback Reports redirected
to the PSO. The content of such reports, particularly for
existing domains, is privacy sensitive.
PSOs will receive feedback on non-existent domains, which may be
similar to existing Organizational Domains. Feedback related to such
cousin domains have a small risk of carrying information related to
an actual Organizational Domain. To minimize this potential concern,
PSD DMARC feedback MUST be limited to Aggregate Reports. Feedback
Reports carry more detailed information and present a greater risk.
Due to the inherent privacy and security risks associated with PSD
DMARC for Organizational Domains in multi-organization PSDs that do
not participate in DMARC, any feedback reporting related to multi-
organizational PSDs MUST be limited to non-existent domains except in
cases where the reporter knows that PSO requires use of DMARC (by
checking the DMARC PSD Registry).
5. Security Considerations
This document does not change the security considerations of
[RFC7489] and [RFC7960].
The risks of the issues identified in Section 12.3 of [RFC7489] ("DNS
Security") are amplified by PSD DMARC. In particular, consequences
of DNS cache poisoning (or name chaining) are increased because a
successful attack would potentially have a much wider scope (see
[RFC3833] for details).
The risks of the issues identified in Section 12.5 of [RFC7489]
("External Reporting Addresses") are amplified by PSD DMARC. By
design, PSD DMARC causes unrequested reporting of feedback to
entities external to the Organizational Domain. This is discussed in
more detail in Section 4.
6. IANA Considerations
IANA has added a new tag to the "DMARC Tag Registry" in the "Domain-
based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC)
Parameters" registry. The "Status" column is defined in Section 11.4
of [RFC7489].
The new entry is as follows:
+==========+===========+=========+=============================+
| Tag Name | Reference | Status | Description |
+==========+===========+=========+=============================+
| np | RFC 9091 | current | Requested handling policy |
| | | | for non-existent subdomains |
+----------+-----------+---------+-----------------------------+

Appendix A. PSD DMARC Privacy Concern Mitigation Experiment
The experiment being performed has three different questions that are
looking to be addressed in this document.
* Section 3.2 modifies policy discovery to add an additional DNS
lookup. To determine if this lookup is useful, PSDs will add
additional DMARC records in place and will analyze the DMARC
reports. Success will be determined if a consensus of PSDs that
publish DMARC records are able to collect useful data.
* Section 3.2 adds the "np" tag for non-existent subdomains (DNS
NXDOMAIN). PSOs wishing to test this will add this flag to their
DMARC record and will analyze DMARC reports for deployment.
Success will be determined if organizations find explicitly
blocking non-existent subdomains desirable and that doing so
provides added value.
* Section 4 discusses three cases where providing feedback could
cause information to leak out of an organization. This experiment
will analyze the Feedback Reports generated for each case to
determine if there is information leakage.
Appendix B. DMARC PSD Registry Examples
To facilitate experimentation around mitigation of data leakage,
samples of the DNS-based and IANA-like registries are available at
[PSD-DMARC].
B.1. DMARC PSD DNS Query Service
A sample stand-alone DNS query service is available at [PSD-DMARC].
It was developed based on the contents suggested for an IANA registry
in an earlier draft version of this document. Usage of the service
is described at [PSD-DMARC].
B.2. DMARC PSD Registry
[PSD-DMARC] provides an IANA-like DMARC Public Suffix Domain (PSD)
Registry as a stand-alone DNS query service. It follows the contents
and structure described below. There is a Comma-Separated Value
(CSV) version of the listed PSDs that is suitable for use in build
updates for PSD DMARC-capable software.
PSDs that are deploying DMARC and are participating in PSD DMARC must
register their public suffix domain in this new registry. The
requirement has to be documented in a manner that satisfies the terms
of Expert Review, per [RFC8126]. The Designated Expert needs to
confirm that provided documentation adequately describes PSD policy
to require Domain Owners to use DMARC or that all Domain Owners are
part of a single organization with the PSO.
The authoritative registry can be found here: <https://psddmarc.org>
B.3. DMARC PSD PSL Extension
[PSD-DMARC] provides a file formatted like the Public Suffix List
(PSL) in order to facilitate identification of PSD DMARC
participants. Contents are functionally identical to the IANA-like
registry but presented in a different format.
When using this approach, the input domain of the extension lookup is
supposed to be the output domain of the regular PSL lookup, i.e., the
Organizational Domain. This alternative data approach is potentially
useful since DMARC implementations already need to be able to parse
the data format, so it should be easier to implement.
Appendix C. Implementations
There are two known implementations of PSD DMARC available for
testing.
C.1. Authheaders Module
The authheaders Python module and command line tool is available for
download or installation from Pypi (Python Packaging Index).
It supports both use of the DNS-based query service and download of
the CSV registry file from [PSD-DMARC].
C.2. Zdkimfilter Module
The zdkimfilter module is a separately available add-on to Courier-
MTA.
Mostly used for DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) signing, it can be
configured to also verify, apply DMARC policies, and send Aggregate
Reports. For PSD DMARC, it uses the PSL extension list approach,
which is available from [PSD-DMARC].
