Thanks a lot! > Please read the draft and send me your comments: Attacks 1-4 are really quite broad in scope. They work on the network layer and can be applied to all sorts of packets. While what's written in these sections is true, I wonder if it needs an explicit mention in this document, which is supposed to deal with AAA proxy-specific attacks. Attack 5 is more severe than stated in the document: AAA protocols might send their payload in parts in the clear. Intermediate hops (not only AAA proxies) may extract information out of these payloads, even without knowledge of keying material. RADIUS only encrypts a small subset of attributes on the wire. Diameter communication MUST be encrypted with IPSec or TLS (but there was talk going on on the dime list for making this a SHOULD in 3588bis, IIRC). 5.2.2 re "[Editor's note: Is this true?]": Access-Request packets in RADIUS can be unauthenticated and thus be replayed. This will happen if the Message-Authenticator digest is not present in the request. This is NOT RECOMMENDED as per RFC5080, but possible (and existing deployed practice). 5.2.8, re "[Editor's note: Are AAA attributes typically protected?]": There are key wrapping schemes that provide encryption between the ends of the AAA communication for individual attributes. They require out-of-band signalling of the wrapping keying material though, and are not an inherent protocol feature. So while they can be protected it is "typically" not the case (at least in the networks I work with, maybe other people have other experiences). Oh, and a typo in section 6: This section uses the thread model = -> threat Greetings, Stefan Winter -- = Stefan WINTER Ingenieur de Recherche Fondation RESTENA - R=E9seau T=E9l=E9informatique de l'Education Nationale = et de la Recherche 6, rue Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi L-1359 Luxembourg Tel: +352 424409 1 Fax: +352 422473 _______________________________________________ Proxies mailing list Proxies@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/proxies
