1. IP SECURITY – Chapter 16 IP SECURITY – Chapter 16 Security Mechanisms: email – S/MIME, PGP client/server - Kerberos web access - Secure Sockets Layer network - TCP/IP Three Areas: 1. Authentication – verifies source / no alteration 2. Confidentiality – no eavesdropper 3. Key Management – secure exchange

2. ATTACKS - REQUIREMENTS ATTACKS - REQUIREMENTS 1.IP Spoofing - false IP address 2.eavesdropping / packet sniffing - logon data, database contents Secure Branch Office over Internet - Virtual Private Network Secure Remote Access over Internet - local call to ISP  remote company extranet/internet – secure comms  other orgs Secure Commerce – enhanced by IPSEC …because encrypt/decrypt all traffic at IP level (fig 16.1)

3. IP SECURITY SCENARIO

4. BENEFITS of IPSEC BENEFITS of IPSEC Traffic within company – ”no need for security” Transparent applications and end users Security for ”off-site” individuals

5. IPSEC and ROUTING IPSEC and ROUTING Authorises Routing Advertisement Authorises Neighbour Advertisement Redirect Routing Update - not forged

6. EXTENSION HEADER EXTENSION HEADER - follows main IP header Authentication Header Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) header (encrypted) Fig 16.2 AH - Authentication Header ESP – Encryption + Authentication Table 16.1

7. IPSec DOCUMENT OVERVIEW

8. SECURITY ASSOCIATIONS (SAs) One-way relationship between sender and receiver -For two-way, need two SAs - Three Parameters 1. Security Parameter Index (SPI) 2. IP Destination Address 3. Security Protocol Identifier

9. SECURITY ASSOCIATIONS (SAs) 1. Security Parameter Index (SPI) - bit string – carried in AH and ESP headers enables receiver to select SA for processing packet. 2. IP Destination Address - end user or network system (e.g. firewall, router) 3. Security Protocol Identifier indicates AH or ESP

10. SA PARAMETERS SA PARAMETERS Sequence Number Counter Sequence Counter Overflow - overflow auditable? Anti-Replay Windows - is incoming AH or ESP a replay? AH information - auth. alg., keys, key lifetimes ESP information - encryp. alg., auth. alg., keys, init. values, key lifetimes Lifetime of SA IPSec Protocol Mode: - Tunnel/Transport/Wildcard (mask) Path MTU – max packet size

11. SECURITY POLICY DATABASE (SPD) SECURITY POLICY DATABASE (SPD) Relates IP traffic to specific SAs [ Subset 0 of IP Traffic] SA [ Subset 1 of IP Traffic] and/or [Subset of IP Traffic] SA 0 SA 1

12. SPD : IP and UPPER LAYER SELECTORS SPD : IP and UPPER LAYER SELECTORS - filters/maps traffic  SA Dest. IP Address: single/list/range/wildcard Source IP Address: single/list/range/wildcard User ID Data Sensitivity Level: e.g.secret/unclassified Transport Layer Protocol: (number) individual/list/range IPSEC Protocol: AH/ESP/AH and ESP Source and Dest. Ports: (TCP or UDP values) individual/list/wildcard

13. SPD : IP and UPPER LAYER SELECTORS SPD : IP and UPPER LAYER SELECTORS - filters/maps traffic  SA IPv6 Class: specific/wildcard IPv6 Flowlabel: specific/wildcard IPv4 Type of Service (TOS): specific/wildcard

14. TRANSPORT MODE TRANSPORT MODE Transport Upper-layer protection End-to-end communication (e.g. client  server, two workstations) ESP encrypts IP payload (not header) (optionally authenticates) AH authenticates IP payload + selected portions of header

15. TUNNEL MODE TUNNEL MODE Tunnel Protects entire IP packet entire packet + security fields treated as ”outer” payload with new IP header Original (inner) packet travels through tunnel. Routers cannot examine inner IP header e.g. tunneled through firewall Table 16.2

16. AUTHENTICATION HEADER AUTHENTICATION HEADER - Detects modification - Prevents address spoofing, replay Uses MAC - Alice, Bob share secret key Fig 16.3

17. AUTHENTICATION HEADER

18. ANTI-REPLAY SERVICE ANTI-REPLAY SERVICE Sequence Number Field (SNF) thwarts attack New SA: Sender initialises C=0 For every new packet on SA: C++ Anti-Replay operates up to max C = 2 32 – 1 If max reached, terminate SA

19. ANTI-REPLAY SERVICE ANTI-REPLAY SERVICE IP is, connectionless, unreliable  protocol does NOT guarantee: packets delivered in order all packets delivered

20. ANTI-REPLAY MECHANISM

21. ANTI-REPLAY MECHANISM ANTI-REPLAY MECHANISM (Fig 16.4) 1. if Rx packet falls in window and new then check MAC. if authentic then mark slot 2. if Rx packet to right of window and new then check MAC. if authentic advance window up to packet. 3. if Rx packet to left of window or authentication fails then, discard, audit

22. INTEGRITY CHECK VALUE (ICV) - MAC INTEGRITY CHECK VALUE (ICV) - MAC HMAC–MD5-96, HMAC-SHA-1-96 (trunc to 96 bits) MAC over: IP Header Fields which are unchanged in transit (or are predictable at receiver), other fields set ot 0 for calculation purposes. AH Header except Authentication Data Field – AD  0 Upper-Level protocol data

23. TRANSPORT / TUNNEL MODES TRANSPORT / TUNNEL MODES Fig 16.5 Transport SA: workst.  server (secret key) Tunnel SA: workst. intern. network firewall intern. server without auth. Fig 16.6 IP Payload is TCP or data for other protocol.

24. End-to-End vs. End-to-intermediate Auth.

25. SCOPE OF AH AUTHENTICATION

26. ENCAPSULATING SECURITY PAYLOAD (ESP) ENCAPSULATING SECURITY PAYLOAD (ESP) Message Confidentiality Limited Traffic flow Confidentiality Authentication (like AH) Fig 16.7

27. ENCAPSULATING SECURITY PAYLOAD (ESP)

28. ENCAPSULATING SECURITY PAYLOAD (ESP) ENCAPSULATING SECURITY PAYLOAD (ESP) SPI – Security Association Sequence Number Payload – Transport/Tunnel – encrypt Padding - 0 – 255 bytes Pad Length Next Header – Payload type by identifying first header in payload. Auth. Data – ICV (MAC)

29. ESP ESP Encrypts payload, padding, pad length, next header Optimal init. vector (IV) for encryp. alg. at beginning of Payload Uses DES(CBC), 3DES, RC5, IDEA, 3IDEA, CAST, Blowfish Uses HMAC-MD5-96, HMAC-SHA-1-96

30. PADDING PADDING Required, if encryp. alg. requires plaintext to be certain multiple of bytes. to make ciphertext a multiple of 32-bits for Partial Traffic Flow Confidentiality

31. TRANSPORT and TUNNEL MODES TRANSPORT and TUNNEL MODES Fig 16.8 Transport - confidentiality for all appl. - drawback : traffic analysis Tunnel – hosts avoid security (VPN) Fig 16.9

32. Transport vs. Tunnel Encryp.

33. Scope of ESP Encryp. and Auth.

34. COMBINING SAs COMBINING SAs Each SA implements AH or ESP, but, Some traffic flow may require both.  multiple SAs Security Association Bundle Sequence of SAs SAs may terminate at different endpoints

35. TWO BUNDLE TYPES TWO BUNDLE TYPES Transport Adjacency: more than one security protocol to same IP packet, no tunneling, one endpoint. Iterated Tunneling: multiple (nested) security layers using tunnelling, possible different end points.

36. TWO BUNDLE TYPES TWO BUNDLE TYPES Two approaches can be Combined e.g. Transport SA between hosts travels partway through a Tunnel SA between security gateways.

37. AUTHENTICATION + CONFIDENTIALITY AUTHENTICATION + CONFIDENTIALITY 1. ESP with Auth. Option - Fig 16.9 Transport mode ESP: IP header not protected Tunnel mode ESP: Auth. entire outer IP packet Encryp. entire inner IP packet For both cases, ciphertext authenticated

38. Scope of ESP Encryp. and Auth.

39. AUTHENTICATION + CONFIDENTIALITY AUTHENTICATION + CONFIDENTIALITY 2. Transport Adjacency Two Bundled SAs: - inner being ESP (no auth.) outer being AH - advantage: auth. covers more fields - disadvantage: two SAs versus one

40. AUTHENTICATION + CONFIDENTIALITY AUTHENTICATION + CONFIDENTIALITY 3. Transport-Tunnel Bundle Auth. Prior to encryp.: - advantages: Impossible to intercept and alter without detection. Store MAC with message at destination for later. Use Bundle: Inner AH: Transport SA Outer ESP: Tunnel SA  entire auth. inner packet encrypted. new outer IP header added

41. BASIC COMBINATION OF SAs BASIC COMBINATION OF SAs CASE 1 End systems implement IPSec - share keys CASE 2 Security between gateways (routers,firewalls) No hosts implement IPSec Simple VPN Nested tunnels not required because IPSec applied to entire packet. CASE 3 Case 2 + end-to-end security. Gateway-to-gateway ESP provides traffic confidentiality. CASE 4 Support for remote host to reach firewall. Only tunnel mode required. Key Management - Read
