  1. Diameter EAP Application(draft-ietf-aaa-eap-02.txt) Jari.Arkko@ericsson.com on behalf of ...Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com

  2. Outline of the Presentation • Part 1: Introduction • Part 2: Redirects • Part 3: Protocol details • Part 4: Security considerations • Part 5: Next Steps

  3. Part 1: Introduction

  4. Introduction • ”2869bis plus key AVPs for Diameter” • Scope • One EAP conversation, no role reversal • One NAS, no handoffs or key distribution to multiple NASes • No new NAS-to-home-server security mechanisms, but works end-to-end between the NAS and the home server

  5. Basic sequence Client NAS Server (initiate EAP) Diameter-EAP-RequestEAP-Payload(EAP start) Diameter-EAP-AnswerResult-Code=MULTI_ROUND_AUTHEAP-Payload(Request(…)) EAPOL(Request(…)) EAPOL(Response (…)) Diameter-EAP-RequestEAP-Payload(Response(…)) Diameter-EAP-AnswerResult-Code=SUCCESSEAP-Master-Session-Key EAP-Payload(Success) EAPOL(Success) (4-way handshake)

  6. Changes in -02 • Redirects / NASREQ interaction • Added various protocol details • RADIUS translation • RFC 2548 translation desirable, too • Security considerations

  7. Part 2: Redirects

  8. Redirects and NASREQ interaction • Without CMS, proxy agents can see the EAP MSK • Solution in –02 for avoiding proxies: • NAS contacts the home server directly; redirects used if there would otherwise be a proxy • An optional separate request to retrieve authorization AVPs through the proxy chain

  9. Finding server with redirects NAS Proxy Server Diameter-EAP-RequestEAP-Payload(EAP start) Diameter-EAP-AnswerRedirect-Host=…Redirect-Host-Usage=REALM_AND_APPLICATION Diameter-EAP-RequestEAP-Payload(EAP start)

  10. Separate Authorization AVP Retrieval NAS Server Diameter-EAP-RequestAuth-Request-Type=AUTHORIZE_AUTHENTICATE Diameter-EAP-AnswerResult-Code=DIAMETER_LIMITED_SUCCESSEAP-Master-Session-Key(some authorization AVPs) NASREQ-AA-RequestAuth-Request-Type=AUTHORIZE_ONLY(some AVPs from previous message) Proxy

  11. Issues in Redirects • The authorization AVP retrieval uses NASREQ, since Diameter realm routing table isn’t command-specific • Who decides whether the separate proxy pass is needed? • What exactly does a redirect + elimination of proxies buy us?

  12. Proxy Elimination + Key is not shown to other parties + Lengthy EAP runs become faster + We authenticate the node on the other side - But untrusted proxies can still misbehave! • Proxy might not send a Redirect • Proxy might send the wrong server’s address => We need additional authorization • Configuration • Attributes in server certs? • NAI realm vs. FQDN in server check

  13. Diameter authorization • TLS authenticates Diameter nodes, but… • When the NAS talks to foo.example.com, is this actually the server for realm example.com? • Local configuration • Trust redirect agent • Trust DNS • Separate CA for servers • Certificate name matching (+possibly separate CA) • Certificate extensions • When the server gets a connection from bar.example.com, is this a valid access point? • Separate CA for access points • Certificate extensions

  14. Part 3: Protocol Details

  15. Protocol details • Invalid packets • Fragmentation • EAP retransmission • Accounting-EAP-Auth-Method • EAP-Master-Session-Key

  16. Protocol details: Invalid packets • In RADIUS, this message contains a copy of the previous EAP Request, but we don’t want to keep inter-request state • Some alternatives • EAP-Reissued-Payload AVP (instead of EAP-Payload), and normal DIAMETER_MULTI_ROUND_AUTH Result-Code • New DIAMETER_EAP_INVALID_PACKET Result-Code, and normal EAP-Payload AVP • But BASE and NASREQ contain multiple statements like ”if Result-Code is DIAMETER_MULTI_ROUND_AUTH, then…”

  17. Protocol details: Fragmentation • New AVP: EAP-MTU • Link MTU != max. size of EAP packet • E.g., IKEv2 can carry large EAP packets, but the MTU of the IPsec tunnel set up by IKEv2 is something different • RADIUS translation waiting for clarification of 2869bis and/or draft-congdon-radius-8021x

  18. Protocol details:Accounting-EAP-Auth-Method • How NAS determines the method? • Not specified for MS-Acct-EAP-Type • Proposed solution: server returns it in successful Diameter-EAP-Answer • RFC2548 has also MS-Acct-Auth-Type • PAP/CHAP/EAP/MS-CHAP-2/etc. • Should we add Accounting-Auth-Method to NASREQ or here?

  19. Protocol details:EAP-Master-Session-Key • Simple AVP (OctetString) • Can be translated to MS-MPPE-* • But EAP WG is discussing key naming! We may need more AVPs

  20. Part 4: Security Considerations

  21. EAP 802.11 Diameter Security considerations: System perspective • No document contains security considerations for the whole system? • Gets even more complex if we have handoffs or key distribution to multiple NASes • (May require changes not just to all three components, but to interfaces between them)

  22. Part 5: Next Steps

  23. Next steps • Very much dependent on EAP keying framework security discussion & Russ’ requirements from IETF-56 • Finish that discussion first • Identify other issues that still need work • Comments really welcome! • Finish document • Keep current scope
