Hello,

I am creating a new TLS extension (a domain hint, sent by the client to
help the server map the clients certificate) and would like to ensure
some extension numbers and new handshake messages don't conflict with
any others. Do you have a protocol for choosing these numbers, or should
I just choose and submit to this list (and then an informational as
well).

If the latter, then here is what I suggest:
Currently, we need a new ExtensionType { client_domain(6) }
As well we need a new Handshake Message { client_domain_name(23) }

Otherwise, if these conflict with others, I am certainly open to
different numbers.=20

As well, is there (or should there be) a list of known extensions and HS
messages?

Any thoughts?=20


Thanks,
joshua

According to RFC 3546, "requests to define new extensions
(including assigning extension and error alert numbers) must be
approved by IETF Standards Action". draft-ietf-tls-rfc3546bis-00=20
changes this to "IETF Consensus".

RFC 2246 does not define the procedure for handshake message
numbers, but draft-ietf-tls-rfc2246-bis-09 says that "New
Handshake message type values MUST be defined via RFC 2434
Standards Action."

Since you're defining both an extension and a new handshake
message, the correct procedure would be to write an internet
draft (with the values left as "TBD"), and initiate standards
action as described in RFC 2026, Section 6.1.1.  When IESG
approves the draft as proposed standard, then the "TBDs" are=20
replaced with the actual numbers.

Or this is at least how the official IETF procedure is
supposed to work. Sadly, this procedure is often ignored,
as this list of "TLS numbers used in various places" shows:
http://people.nokia.net/~pasi/tls-numbers.txt

So if you decide not to follow the official procedure,
at least don't use any number that's already on the list...

(Disclaimer: The list is totally unofficial, and the inclusion
of any particular value does not mean that the number is
"allocated" for that purpose. In some cases, it's more=20
like "hall of shame" :-)

Best regards,
Pasi

Hi Eric,

Are you comfortable starting WGLC on the extensions update (and the ECC
draft) yet?

In light of the news that SHA1 has been "broken"
http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2005/02/sha1_broken.html
(collisions can be found with much less work than predicted),
is it time for us to be defining new ciphersuites that employ
SHA256, SHA384 and/or SHA512?

Personally, I'm more concerned with the fact that the authorization process is
fixed with SHA-1 (or MD5+SHA-1 for RSA) with no upgrade path. I still feel
pretty comfortable with HMAC/SHA-1 for now, though a new set of AES+SHA2
ciphersuites would be easy to specify and probably couldn't hurt.

Any thoughts on adding a TLS extension for negotiating different hashes for
authorization? DSA might be a little tricky, since AFAIK NIST still hasn't
approved larger keys, and you would lose quite a bit of hash space by using
SHA-2 with a 160 bit q. But RSA could be trivially ugpraded to use SHA-512 with
normal PKCS1 v1.5 padding instead of the MD5/SHA1 with the PKCS-variant padding
that's currently used. It would be difficult to mount a succesful attack
against the handshake in realtime, given the current workload of even just an
MD5 collision, much less 2^69 operations for SHA, but by the time such an
extension is actually widely implemented, I suspect those will have been
reduced quite a bit.

Basic outline:

Client extension:

enum {
   sha256(0), sha384(1), sha512(2), (255)
} SignatureHash;

struct {
   SignatureHash hash_list<1..2^8-1>; /* sorted by client preference */
} SignatureHashList;

Server extension:

struct {
   SignatureHash hash; /* whichever one the server prefers */
} SignatureHashResponse;

If negotiated, the RSA signatures uses standard PKCS #1 padding with the chosen
hash, DSA continues to use raw unpadded hashes as normal.

Flame away,
  Jack

Just to put this into perspective:

- It only affects the use of SHA-1 as a hash function, not as a PRF or HMAC,
  so the core of SSH, SSL/TLS, etc etc are unaffected.

- I've seen one report that it only affects the compression function and not
  the full hash function, which sounds plausible.  SHA-1 (and indeed all of
  the MD4-type UFN hash functions) use a core compression function and then
  perform extra operations for the full hash function, so finding collisions
  in the full hash is somewhat more difficult than just the compression
  function.

- It takes 2^69 ops on average to find a second input value that produces the
  same output as the first one (the ambiguous phrasing here is meant to
  indicate that probably the compression function produces the same output
  rather than the full SHA-1 hash producing the same output, see above).  The
  second input value can't be chosen by the attacker, so the chances of
  forging a signature on structured data like a certificate or CMS/PGP message
  are fairly remote.

So while it's a very interesting result, it's more a hint to consider moving
to something else rather than time to hit the panic button.  RIPEMD-160 still
looks fairly secure, my gut feeling is that its dual-path construction is
safer than the SHA-1 derived SHA-256 et al, but I suspect that in the light of
the current work on attacking UFN-based designs we'll be seeing a pile of new
non-UFN hash functions in the same way that differential cryptanalysis spurred
a burst of work on new ciphers.

Peter.

Peter and all,

  I think your under playing this a bit.  Once you have found holes
and/or collisions in compression it is short work to determined
other collisions if the full hash...  Moving away from SHA-1
is really overdue, but not yet entirely necessary...

Another possibility would be to define a set of new TLS key
exchange algorithms (RSA2/DH_RSA2/DHE_RSA2/something, either
PKCSv1.5 padding with SHA-256, or maybe PKCSv2.1 PSS padding),
and new ciphersuites based on those, something like:

TLS_RSA2_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256
TLS_RSA2_WITH_something_else
TLS_DH_RSA2_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256
TLS_DHE_RSA2_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256 =20
(...)

This way, we could use the existing TLS ciphersuite negotiation
logic without needing anything new there. And since TLS already
has a large number of different key exchange algorithms (my last
count was around 20, including the most stable internet-drafts),
adding a couple more would probably fit the TLS architecture
reasonably nicely.

(But certainly adding a TLS extension would also get=20
the job done.)

Best regards,
Pasi

My thoughts: I'm still much more concerned about promoting something
like "RSA ephemeral" for some sort fo forward secrecy improvements.
The weak link for 99% of real world TLS/SSL implementations is keypair
management, since so few folks are using expensive tamper-resistent
crypto hardware for their server ends, and the hash function is a moot
point if an attacker can sniff traffic in anticipation of scoring a/the
server keypair from some social/meatspace hack.

I know Sun and Microsoft don't like specs that mandate forward secrecy,
but I'd like to see this WG start to incorporate forward secrecy as a
core component of future ciphersuites, even if only "ephemeral" keypairs
that leave wiggle room for TLS server vendors.

Don't the DHE ciphersuites provide PFS already? Am I missing something?

[skip]

I am currently working on a draft, proposing such an extension.
It was mentioned on the list, that a different PRF would suit better for
PSK.
Besides, SHA-1/MD5/PRF cannot be used with GOST cipher suites.
So we have plenty of reasons already to create an extension, which
would allow PRF and authorization hash negotiation.

Good luck,
Greg Chudov.

Right.  It's not yet a panic, but we can see it coming, so NOW is the
right time, IMO.

Right.  Let's not delay doing this work until the panic has begun.

The trouble is that most traffic is protected with RSA suites, so we should
be very concerned about the protection that RSA suites offer.

RSA_EXPORT offers some forward secrecy via the temporary key mechanism, but
the "standard" RSA suite set does not. 

I had been under the impression that most servers were using the non-EXPORT
RSA ciphersuites, but now that I examine some certificates I see mostly RSA
keys with >= 1024 bit moduli -- which would necessitate server key exchange
messages negotiating RSA_EXPORT.

I also see Certificate Authorities like Verisign recommending 1024+ bit 
server keypairs, and vendors of TLS-using server software like Sun and 
Microsoft defaulting to 1024 bits or better in their keypair creation.

So the good news is that the current state of affairs is better than I feared,
and my "weak link" statement seems to be way off base.

But there's an irony: it's only because of US export law that TLS servers with
large RSA keys are using the server exchange mechanism to switch to the 
RSA_EXPORT temporary key mechanism and negotiate a suite with some forward
secrecy. 

I'd like to see future ciphersuites include forward secrecy (perfect or not) as 
a core design goal, not some accidental benefit as we have now.

But that's purely a matter of how people configure their implementations.
You can do DHE with the RSA certificates that people now standardly
have.

I believe you're mistaken here. The vast majority of SSL connections
use static RSA, no matter what the key size in the certificates.

Nelson and all,

  With regards to SHA-1 AND DES/3DES we are in agreement..
There is no panic yet, and if this is addressed in a expedient manner
there need not be a panic.  However, waiting very long would be
a mistake that would lead to a panic decision mode which is
almost always a disaster of one proportion or another...

Austin,

  I never said that DES had anything to do with identity theft directly.
So such a mischaracterization is of your own interpratation of what
I did say. What I did say was the following again: "it is clear that
moving away from DES/3DES and SHA-1 is necessary and IMHO
amongst a growing number of other security professionals as well
as the NIST, long overdue due to identity theft and other security
related very real concerns.."

  Yes your right that 3DES is not directly used to authenticate identities,
and breaks in SHA-1 can't be used directly to forge identities as you
state it in your remarks.  However indirectly and/or as result in the
use of cybersuites in TLS/SSL where SHA-1 is one hash used and
3DES is included, the "Stealing" of identities and/or misuse can be
achieved...  Hence, the movement away from the SHA-1 hash as
well as BTW it's siblings SHA-256 and SHA-512 would be advisible
as soon as can be achieved.  The NIST has already recomended
moving away from DES and 3DES as I believe you know...
So the sooner a moving away can be achieved, the lessor of a
chance a panic approach will ensue.

This strikes me as a dubious claim given our current level of
cryptoanalytic sucess. In particular, it appears unlikely that the
collision attacks on SHA-1 can be used to mount a successful attack on
either the HMAC-SHA function used for message integrity in SSL/TLS or
the HMAC-SHA-based PRF function used to generate the keying
material. The only plausible point of attack on SSL/TLS at the present
time is against the certificate infrastructure and even that looks to
require a very large amount of effort with only a modest probability
of success.

I don't know of any useful attacks on 3DES in particular that
could plausibly be used to perform identity theft. (The CBC-based
attacks don't depend on 3DES and can also be used against AES.)

It's not actually clear that SHA-256 will be more resistant to
this line of cryptanalyis.

 Agreed to a point to your reasoned response here.  But not entirely
for reasons I believe I have already articulated as it appears have
others.  I would think it wise to address this problem form a worst
case point of view than otherwise as the latter has potentially very
damaging consequences...

  No attacks/hacks I know of in particular have been directed to
perform identity theft either, yet.

  That was my point, as I believe NIST has been discovering...

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Transport Layer Security Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Pre-Shared Key Ciphersuites for Transport Layer Security (TLS)
	Author(s)	: P. Eronen, H. Tschofenig
	Filename	: draft-ietf-tls-psk-06.txt
	Pages		: 17
	Date		: 2005-2-23
	
This document specifies three sets of new ciphersuites for the
   Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol to support authentication
   based on pre-shared keys.  These pre-shared keys are symmetric keys,
   shared in advance among the communicating parties.  The first set of
   ciphersuites uses only symmetric key operations for authentication.
   The second set uses a Diffie-Hellman exchange authenticated with a
   pre-shared key; and the third set combines public key authentication
   of the server with pre-shared key authentication of the client.

I'd like to solicit comment on the following draft:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-funk-tls-inner-application-extension-01.txt

This draft defines a new TLS extension that allows authentication or other
information exchange to occur under the protection of the TLS handshake and
prior to exchange of upper-layer data. This permits a TLS session to be 
secured
by EAP authentication in addition to TLS authentication, allows either 
party to
interrogate the "endpoint integrity" status of the other, etc., prior to 
proceeding
with data exchange. It is also intended to serve as a means to perform layer 3
authentication and negotiation of security parameters for additional 
communication
channels. Finally, it serves as the basis for the EAP-TTLS authentication 
protocol.

The authors are hopeful that this draft will be of interest to members of 
the working
group. Our intention is to take this to proposed standard RFC status.

Thank you very much,

Paul

An obvious alternative is to strictly layer the authentication protocol
over TLS, e.g. "application / EAP / TLS / TCP / IP". That appears to me
to be simpler, so what is the technical motivation for using new TLS
record ContentTypes instead?

The purpose is to separate the EAP authentication from the upper-layer
data (e.g. HTTP). So the TLS session has three phases: TLS handshake,
Inner Application (e.g. EAP authentication using new record type), then
HTTP traffic. In effect, the TLS handshake plus the exchange under the
new record type becomes an "extended handshake", allowing the data
session to proceed only after both TLS handshake and EAP authentication.

The intention is to provide a 3-phase model for HTTP or other TCP sessions,
and provide a 2-phase model (TLS handshake, then authentication under new
record type, but omitting any further data exchange) if just authentication is
required. The 2-phase model would look like what you are suggesting.

You can separate that data by encapsulating the other protocol within the
application data of tls. Ie you tag the data you want to distinguish.

As I understood from the document the unique offer of TLS/IA comparing
to TLS-PSK and TLS-SRP, is that it allows for client password based
authentication using a challenge-responce protocol. Although it doesn't
look a bad idea, in this draft, it is heavily separated from the TLS protocol
--not part of the handshake, uses different record types, this AVP format etc, 
and that makes it look like an ugly plugin. 
Other than that the idea of exporting the TLS secret to other protocols does 
not really sound nice. 

Although I like the idea of adding challenge and responce protocols being
added, i don't like the way. It is only EAP-related, and it can hardly
benefit any other applications.

Well, a new record type is a good way to do the tagging. The idea is that
the TLS data endpoints shouldn't have to distinguish authentication data
from their own data. So the TLS engine handles TLS handshake and
authentication via new record type, and only emits the data to the upper layer
application that it is interested in. This would allow, for example, a bump in
the wire to perform the TLS handshake and inner application protocols, and
expose a simple unencrypted data stream to a backend server.

One of the intentions of the protocol is independence of the inner application
from the TLS handshake. This means that the confidence in the TLS handshake
itself need not be re-examined.

Another intention is that arbitrary information exchange be possible within
the tunnel created by the TLS handshake. TLS itself is very regimented,
and for good reason. So, yes, the data within the new record type is very
un-TLS, and it occurs after the base TLS security has been established
via the regimented handshake. Once the handshake is complete, a more
free-form exchange is possible.

The reason that the Diameter AVP format was chosen is for compatibility
with the RADIUS/Diameter infrastructure, with which much of the anticipated
inner application traffic will have to interoperate.

It's more than just EAP-related. Any sequence of Diameter AVPs may be
used; EAP is just one example. Plus, Diameter provides for vendor extensions.
So it is possible to define any inner application you like; authentication 
is one,
key agreement for an additional data channel might be another, endpoint
integrity a third, etc.
