   UDP Transport Layer (UDPTL) over Datagram Transport Layer Security
                                 (DTLS)
                    draft-ietf-mmusic-udptl-dtls-03

Abstract

   This document specifies how the UDP Transport Layer (UDPTL) protocol,
   the predominant transport protocol for T.38 fax, can be transported
   over the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol, how the
   usage of UDPTL over DTLS is indicated in the Session Description
   Protocol (SDP), and how UDPTL over DTLS is negotiated in a session
   established using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).

1.  Introduction

   While it is possible to transmit highly sensitive documents using
   traditional telephony encryption devices, secure fax on the Public
   Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) was never widely considered or
   prioritized.  This was mainly because of the challenges involved with
   physical access to telephony equipment.  As real-time communications
   transition to IP networks, where information might potentially be
   intercepted or spoofed, an appropriate level of security for fax that
   offers integrity and confidentiality protection is vital.

   The overwhelmingly predominant fax transport protocol is UDPTL-based
   [ITU.T38.2010].  The protocol stack for fax transport using UDPTL is
   shown in Table 1.

                Table 1: Protocol stack for UDPTL over UDP

   Implementations exist today for securing this fax transport type.
   Some of these mechanisms are:

   o  [ITU.T30.2005] Annex H specifies integrity and confidentiality
      protection of fax in the application layer, independent of
      protocol for fax transport.
   o  [ITU.T38.2010] specifies fax transport over RTP/SAVP which enables
      integrity and confidentiality protection of fax in IP network.

   Despite these mechanisms to secure fax, there is no transport layer
   security offering integrity and confidentiality protection for UDPTL.
   This issue was addressed in a study by the 3rd Generation Partnership
   Project (3GPP) on how to provide secure fax in the IP Multimedia
   Subsystem (IMS).  They concluded that secure fax shall be transported
   using UDPTL over DTLS.

   This document specifies fax transport using UDPTL over DTLS
   [RFC6347], which enables integrity and confidentiality protection of
   fax in IP networks.  The protocol stack which enhances fax transport
   to offer integrity and confidentiality using UDPTL over DTLS is shown
   in Table 2.

           Table 2: Protocol stack for UDPTL over DTLS over UDP

Holmberg, et al.          Expires July 21, 2014                 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft               UDPTL over DTLS                January 2014

   The primary motivations for the mechanism in this document are:

   o  The design of DTLS [RFC6347] is clearly defined, well understood
      and implementations are widely available.
   o  No DTLS extensions are required in order to enable UDPTL transport
      over DTLS.
   o  Fax transport using UDPTL over DTLS only requires insertion of the
      DTLS layer between the UDPTL layer and the UDP layer, as shown in
      Table 2.  The UDPTL layer and layers above UDPTL layer require no
      modification.
   o  UDPTL [ITU.T38.2010] is by far the most widely deployed fax
      transport protocol in IP networks.
   o  3GPP and the IP fax community need a mechanism to transport UDPTL
      over DTLS in order to provide secure fax in IMS and other SIP-
      based networks.

   This document specifies the transport of UDPTL over DTLS using the
   DTLS record layer "application_data" packets [RFC6347].

   Since the DTLS record layer "application_data" packet does not
   indicate whether it carries UDPTL, or some other protocol, the usage
   of a dedicated DTLS association for transport of UDPTL needs to be
   negotiated, e.g. using the Session Description Protocol (SDP)
   [RFC4566] and the SDP offer/answer mechanism [RFC3264].

   Therefore, this document specifies a new <proto> value [RFC4566] for
   the SDP media description ("m=" line) [RFC3264], in order to indicate
   UDPTL over DTLS in SDP messages [RFC4566].

2.  Conventions

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, RFC 2119
   [RFC2119].

   DTLS uses the term "session" to refer to a long-lived set of keying
   material that spans DTLS associations.  In this document, in order to
   be consistent with SIP/SDP usage of "session" terminology, we use
   "session" to refer to a multimedia session and use the term "DTLS
   session" to refer to the DTLS construct.  We use the term "DTLS
   association" to refer to a particular DTLS cipher suite and keying
   material set that is associated with a single host/port quartet.  The
   same DTLS session can be used to establish the keying material for
   multiple DTLS associations.  For consistency with other SIP/SDP
   usage, we use the term "connection" when what's being referred to is
   a multimedia stream that is not specifically DTLS.

3.  Secure Channel

3.1.  Secure Channel Establishment

   The SDP offer/answer mechanism [RFC3264] is used by other protocols,
   e.g. the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [RFC3261], to negotiate
   and establish multimedia sessions.

   In addition to the usual contents of an SDP media description ("m="
   line) specified for UDPTL over UDP, each SDP media description for
   UDPTL over DTLS over UDP will also contain several SDP attributes,
   which were introduced in the context of TCP [RFC4145] and TLS
   [RFC4572], and are re-used in this document.

   The SDP offer and the SDP answer MUST conform to the following
   requirements:

   o  The endpoint MUST set the "proto" field of the "m=" line to the
      token specified in Table 3.
   o  In order to negotiate the TLS roles, the endpoint MUST use the SDP
      setup attribute [RFC4145].  The offerer SHOULD assign the SDP
      setup attribute with a setup:actpass value, and MAY assign the SDP
      setup attribute with a setup:active value or setup:passive value.
      The offerer MUST NOT assign the SDP setup attribute with a
      setup:holdconn value.  If the offerer assigns the SDP setup
      attribute with a setup:actpass value or setup:passive value, it
      MUST be prepared to receive a DTLS client_hello message before it
      receives the SDP answer.  If the answerer accepts the media
      stream, then it MUST assign the SDP setup attribute with either a
      setup:active value or setup:passive value, according to the
      procedures in [RFC4145].  The answerer MUST NOT assign an SDP
      setup attribute with a setup:holdconn value.  Whichever party is
      active, it MUST initiate a DTLS handshake by sending a ClientHello
      over each flow (host/port quartet).
   o  If the endpoint supports, and is willing to use, a cipher suite
      with an associated certificate, it MUST include an SDP fingerprint
      attribute [RFC4572] in the SDP.
   o  If a cipher suite with an associated certificate is selected
      during the DTLS handshake, the certificate received during the
      DTLS handshake MUST match the fingerprint received in the SDP
      fingerprint attribute.  If the fingerprint does not match the
      hashed certificate, then the endpoint MUST tear down the media
      session immediately.  Note that it is permissible to wait until
      the other side's fingerprint has been received before establishing
      the connection; however, this may have undesirable latency
      effects.
   o  The endpoint MUST NOT use the SDP connection attribute [RFC4145].

Internet-Draft               UDPTL over DTLS                January 2014

3.2.  Secure Channel Usage

   DTLS is used as specified in [RFC6347].  Once the DTLS handshake is
   successfully completed (in order to prevent facsimile data from being
   transmitted insecurely), the UDPTL packets SHALL be transported in
   DTLS record layer "application_data" packets.

4.  Miscellaneous Considerations

4.1.  Anonymous Calls

   When making anonymous calls, a new self-signed certificate SHOULD be
   used for each call and the content of the subjectAltName attribute
   inside the certificate MUST NOT contain information that either
   allows correlation or identification of the user making anonymous
   calls.

4.2.  Middlebox Interaction

4.2.1.  ICE Interaction

   When ICE [RFC5245] is being used, the ICE connectivity checks are
   performed before the DTLS handshake begins.  Note that if aggressive
   nomination mode is used, multiple candidate pairs may be marked valid
   before ICE finally converges on a single candidate pair.  UAs MUST
   treat all ICE candidate pairs associated with a single component as
   part of the same DTLS association.  Thus, there will be only one DTLS
   handshake even if there are multiple valid candidate pairs.  Note
   that this may mean adjusting the endpoint IP addresses if the
   selected candidate pair shifts, just as if the DTLS packets were an
   ordinary media stream.

4.2.2.  Latching Control without ICE

   When ICE [RFC5245] is not being used and the DTLS handshake has not
   completed upon receiving the other side's SDP, then the passive side
   MUST do a single unauthenticated STUN [RFC5389] connectivity check in
   order to open up the appropriate pinhole.  All UAs MUST be prepared
   to answer this request during the handshake period even if they do
   not otherwise do ICE.  However, the active side MUST proceed with the
   DTLS handshake as appropriate even if no such STUN check is received
   and the passive MUST NOT wait for a STUN answer before sending its
   ServerHello.

Internet-Draft               UDPTL over DTLS                January 2014

4.2.3.  STUN Interaction

   The UA SHALL send the STUN packets [RFC5389] directly over UDP, not
   over DTLS.

   The UA MUST demultiplex packets arriving on the IP address and port
   associated with the DTLS association as follows:

   o  If the value of the first byte of the packet is 0 or 1, then the
      packet is STUN.
   o  If the value of the first byte of the packet is between 20 and 63
      (inclusive), the packet is DTLS.

4.3.  Rekeying

   After the DTLS handshake caused by rekeying has completed, because of
   possible packet reordering on the wire, packets protected by the
   previous set of keys can arrive.  To compensate for this fact,
   receivers SHOULD maintain both sets of keys for some time in order to
   be able to decrypt and verify older packets.  The duration of
   maintaining the previous set of keys after the finish of the DTLS
   handshake is out of scope for this document.

5.  Security Considerations

   Fax may be used to transmit a wide range of sensitive data, including
   personal, corporate, and governmental information.  It is therefore
   critical to be able to protect against threats to the confidentiality
   and integrity of the transmitted data.

   The mechanism in this document provides integrity and confidentiality
   protection for fax by specifying fax transport using UDPTL over DTLS
   [RFC6347].

   DTLS media signaled with SIP requires a mechanism to ensure that the
   communicating peers' certificates are correct.

   The standard DTLS strategy for authenticating the communicating
   parties is to give the server (and optionally the client) a PKIX
   [RFC5280] certificate.  The client then verifies the certificate and
   checks that the name in the certificate matches the server's domain
   name.  This works because there are a relatively small number of
   servers with well-defined names; a situation that does not usually
   occur in the VoIP context.

   The design described in this document is intended to leverage the
   authenticity of the signaling channel (while not requiring
   confidentiality).  As long as each side of the connection can verify

Holmberg, et al.          Expires July 21, 2014                 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft               UDPTL over DTLS                January 2014

   the integrity of the SDP received from the other side, then the DTLS
   handshake cannot be hijacked via a man-in-the-middle attack.  This
   integrity protection is easily provided by the caller to the callee
   via the SIP Identity [RFC4474] mechanism.  Other mechanisms, such as
   the S/MIME mechanism [RFC3261], or perhaps future mechanisms yet to
   be specified could also serve this purpose.

   While this mechanism can still be used without such integrity
   mechanisms, the security provided is limited to defense against
   passive attack by intermediaries.  An active attack on the signaling
   plus an active attack on the media plane can allow an attacker to
   attack the connection (R-SIG-MEDIA in the notation of [RFC5479]).

6.  IANA Considerations

   This document updates the "Session Description Protocol (SDP)
   Parameters" registry as specified in Section 8.2.2 of [RFC4566].
   Specifically, it adds the values in Table 3 to the table for the SDP
   "proto" field registry.

                 +-------+-----------------+------------+
                 |  Type |     SDP Name    | Reference  |
                 +-------+-----------------+------------+
                 | proto | "UDP/TLS/UDPTL" | [RFC-XXXX] |

Appendix A.  Examples

A.1.  General

   Prior to establishing the session, both Alice and Bob generate self-
   signed certificates which are used for a single session or, more
   likely, reused for multiple sessions.

   The SIP signaling from Alice to her proxy is transported over TLS to
   ensure an integrity protected channel between Alice and her identity
   service.  Alice's identity service asserts identity of Alice and
   protects the SIP message, e.g. using SIP Identity.  Transport between
   proxies should also be protected somehow.

   Only one element is shown for Alice's and Bob's proxies for the
   purposes of simplification.

   For the sake of brevity and simplicity, only the mandatory SDP T.38
   attributes are shown.

A.2.  Basic Message Flow

   Figure 1 shows an example message flow of session establishment for
   T.38 fax securely transported using UDPTL over DTLS.

   In this example flow, Alice acts as the passive endpoint of the DTLS
   association and Bob acts as the active endpoint of the DTLS
   association.

   Message (1):

      Figure 2 shows the initial INVITE request sent by Alice to Alice's
      proxy.  The initial INVITE request contains an SDP offer.

      The "m=" line in the SDP offer indicates T.38 fax using UDPTL over
      DTLS.

      The SDP setup:actpass attribute in the SDP offer indicates that
      Alice has requested to be either the active or passive endpoint.

      The SDP fingerprint attribute in the SDP offer contains the
      certificate fingerprint computed from Alice's self-signed
      certificate.

   Traditionally, most session with non-secure transport of T.38 fax,
   transported using UDPTL, are established by modifying an ongoing
   audio session into a fax session.  Figure 6 shows an example message
