1.  Introduction

   This document describes how QUIC [QUIC-TRANSPORT] is secured using
   Transport Layer Security (TLS) version 1.3 [TLS13].  TLS 1.3 provides
   critical latency improvements for connection establishment over
   previous versions.  Absent packet loss, most new connections can be
   established and secured within a single round trip; on subsequent
   connections between the same client and server, the client can often
   send application data immediately, that is, using a zero round trip
   setup.

   This document describes how the standardized TLS 1.3 acts as a
   security component of QUIC.

2.1.  TLS Overview

   TLS provides two endpoints with a way to establish a means of
   communication over an untrusted medium (that is, the Internet) that
   ensures that messages they exchange cannot be observed, modified, or
   forged.

   Internally, TLS is a layered protocol, with the structure shown
   below:

   +--------------+--------------+--------------+
   |  Handshake   |    Alerts    |  Application |
   |    Layer     |              |     Data     |
   |              |              |              |
   +--------------+--------------+--------------+
   |                                            |
   |               Record Layer                 |
   |                                            |
   +--------------------------------------------+

   Each upper layer (handshake, alerts, and application data) is carried
   as a series of typed TLS records.  Records are individually
   cryptographically protected and then transmitted over a reliable
   transport (typically TCP) which provides sequencing and guaranteed
   delivery.

   The TLS authenticated key exchange occurs between two entities:
   client and server.  The client initiates the exchange and the server
   responds.  If the key exchange completes successfully, both client
   and server will agree on a secret.  TLS supports both pre-shared key
   (PSK) and Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchanges.  PSK is the basis for
   0-RTT; the latter provides perfect forward secrecy (PFS) when the DH
   keys are destroyed.

   After completing the TLS handshake, the client will have learned and
   authenticated an identity for the server and the server is optionally
   able to learn and authenticate an identity for the client.  TLS
   supports X.509 [RFC5280] certificate-based authentication for both
   server and client.

   The TLS key exchange is resistent to tampering by attackers and it
   produces shared secrets that cannot be controlled by either
   participating peer.

   TLS 1.3 provides two basic handshake modes of interest to QUIC:

   o  A full 1-RTT handshake in which the client is able to send
      application data after one round trip and the server immediately

Thomson & Turner        Expires December 30, 2018               [Page 4]
Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

      responds after receiving the first handshake message from the
      client.

   o  A 0-RTT handshake in which the client uses information it has
      previously learned about the server to send application data
      immediately.  This application data can be replayed by an attacker
      so it MUST NOT carry a self-contained trigger for any non-
      idempotent action.

   A simplified TLS 1.3 handshake with 0-RTT application data is shown
   in Figure 1, see [TLS13] for more options and details.

       ClientHello

                                                     ServerHello
                                            {EncryptedExtensions}
                                                       {Finished}
                                <--------      [Application Data]
      (EndOfEarlyData)
      {Finished}                -------->

      [Application Data]        <------->      [Application Data]

       () Indicates messages protected by early data (0-RTT) keys
       {} Indicates messages protected using handshake keys
       [] Indicates messages protected using application data
          (1-RTT) keys

                    Figure 1: TLS Handshake with 0-RTT

   Data is protected using a number of encryption levels:

   o  Plaintext

   o  Early Data (0-RTT) Keys

   o  Handshake Keys

   o  Application Data (1-RTT) Keys

   Application data may appear only in the early data and application
   data levels.  Handshake and Alert messages may appear in any level.

   The 0-RTT handshake is only possible if the client and server have
   previously communicated.  In the 1-RTT handshake, the client is

   unable to send protected application data until it has received all
   of the handshake messages sent by the server.

3.  Protocol Overview

   QUIC [QUIC-TRANSPORT] assumes responsibility for the confidentiality
   and integrity protection of packets.  For this it uses keys derived
   from a TLS 1.3 handshake [TLS13], but instead of carrying TLS records
   over QUIC (as with TCP), TLS Handshake and Alert messages are carried
   directly over the QUIC transport, which takes over the
   responsibilities of the TLS record layer, as shown below.

   +--------------+--------------+ +-------------+
   |     TLS      |     TLS      | |    QUIC     |
   |  Handshake   |    Alerts    | | Applications|
   |              |              | | (h2q, etc.) |
   +--------------+--------------+-+-------------+
   |                                             |
   |                QUIC Transport               |
   |   (streams, reliability, congestion, etc.)  |
   |                                             |
   +---------------------------------------------+

   |                                             |
   +---------------------------------------------+

   QUIC also relies on TLS 1.3 for authentication and negotiation of
   parameters that are critical to security and performance.

   Rather than a strict layering, these two protocols are co-dependent:
   QUIC uses the TLS handshake; TLS uses the reliability and ordered
   delivery provided by QUIC streams.

   At a high level, there are two main interactions between the TLS and
   QUIC components:

   o  The TLS component sends and receives messages via the QUIC
      component, with QUIC providing a reliable stream abstraction to
      TLS.

   o  The TLS component provides a series of updates to the QUIC
      component, including (a) new packet protection keys to install (b)
      state changes such as handshake completion, the server
      certificate, etc.

   Figure 2 shows these interactions in more detail, with the QUIC
   packet protection being called out specially.

   Unlike TLS over TCP, QUIC applications which want to send data do not
   send it through TLS "application_data" records.  Rather, they send it
   as QUIC STREAM frames which are then carried in QUIC packets.

4.  Carrying TLS Messages

   QUIC carries TLS handshake data in CRYPTO frames, each of which
   consists of a contiguous block of handshake data identified by an
   offset and length.  Those frames are packaged into QUIC packets and
   encrypted under the current TLS encryption level.  As with TLS over
   TCP, once TLS handshake data has been delivered to QUIC, it is QUIC's
   responsibility to deliver it reliably.  Each chunk of data that is
   produced by TLS is associated with the set of keys that TLS is
   currently using.  If QUIC needs to retransmit that data, it MUST use
   the same keys even if TLS has already updated to newer keys.

   One important difference between TLS 1.3 records (used with TCP) and
   QUIC CRYPTO frames is that in QUIC multiple frames may appear in the
   same QUIC packet as long as they are associated with the same
   encryption level.  For instance, an implementation might bundle a
   Handshake message and an ACK for some Handshake data into the same
   packet.

   Each encryption level has a specific list of frames which may appear
   in it.  The rules here generalize those of TLS, in that frames
   associated with establishing the connection can usually appear at any
   encryption level, whereas those associated with transferring data can
   only appear in the 0-RTT and 1-RTT encryption levels

   o  CRYPTO frames MAY appear in packets of any encryption level.

Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   o  CONNECTION_CLOSE MAY appear in packets of any encryption level
      other than 0-RTT.

   o  PADDING and PING frames MAY appear in packets of any encryption
      level.

   o  ACK frames MAY appear in packets of any encryption level other
      than 0-RTT, but can only acknowledge packets which appeared in
      that encryption level.

   o  STREAM frames MUST ONLY appear in the 0-RTT and 1-RTT levels.

   o  All other frame types MUST only appear at the 1-RTT levels.

   Because packets could be reordered on the wire, QUIC uses the packet
   type to indicate which level a given packet was encrypted under, as
   shown in Table 1.  When multiple packets of different encryption
   levels need to be sent, endpoints SHOULD use coalesced packets to
   send them in the same UDP datagram.

   As shown in Figure 2, the interface from QUIC to TLS consists of
   three primary functions:

   o  Sending and receiving handshake messages

   o  Rekeying (both transmit and receive)

Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   o  Handshake state updates

   Additional functions might be needed to configure TLS.

4.1.1.  Sending and Receiving Handshake Messages

   In order to drive the handshake, TLS depends on being able to send
   and receive handshake messages.  There are two basic functions on
   this interface: one where QUIC requests handshake messages and one
   where QUIC provides handshake packets.

   Before starting the handshake QUIC provides TLS with the transport
   parameters (see Section 8.2) that it wishes to carry.

   A QUIC client starts TLS by requesting TLS handshake octets from TLS.
   The client acquires handshake octets before sending its first packet.
   A QUIC server starts the process by providing TLS with the client's
   handshake octets.

   At any given time, the TLS stack at an endpoint will have a current
   sending encryption level and receiving encryption level.  Each
   encryption level is associated with a different flow of bytes, which
   is reliably transmitted to the peer in CRYPTO frames.  When TLS
   provides handshake octets to be sent, they are appended to the
   current flow and any packet that includes the CRYPTO frame is
   protected using keys from the corresponding encryption level.

   When an endpoint receives a QUIC packet containing a CRYPTO frame
   from the network, it proceeds as follows:

   o  If the packet was in the TLS receiving encryption level, sequence
      the data into the input flow as usual.  As with STREAM frames, the
      offset is used to find the proper location in the data sequence.
      If the result of this process is that new data is available, then
      it is delivered to TLS in order.

   o  If the packet is from a previously installed encryption level, it
      MUST not contain data which extends past the end of previously
      received data in that flow.  Implementations MUST treat any
      violations of this requirement as a connection error of type
      PROTOCOL_VIOLATION.

   o  If the packet is from a new encryption level, it is saved for
      later processing by TLS.  Once TLS moves to receiving from this
      encryption level, saved data can be provided.  When providing data
      from any new encryption level to TLS, if there is data from a
      previous encryption level that TLS has not consumed, this MUST be
      treated as a connection error of type PROTOCOL_VIOLATION.

Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   Each time that TLS is provided with new data, new handshake octets
   are requested from TLS.  TLS might not provide any octets if the
   handshake messages it has received are incomplete or it has no data
   to send.

   Once the TLS handshake is complete, this is indicated to QUIC along
   with any final handshake octets that TLS needs to send.  TLS also
   provides QUIC with the transport parameters that the peer advertised
   during the handshake.

   Once the handshake is complete, TLS becomes passive.  TLS can still
   receive data from its peer and respond in kind, but it will not need
   to send more data unless specifically requested - either by an
   application or QUIC.  One reason to send data is that the server
   might wish to provide additional or updated session tickets to a
   client.

   When the handshake is complete, QUIC only needs to provide TLS with
   any data that arrives in CRYPTO streams.  In the same way that is
   done during the handshake, new data is requested from TLS after
   providing received data.

   Important:  Until the handshake is reported as complete, the
      connection and key exchange are not properly authenticated at the
      server.  Even though 1-RTT keys are available to a server after
      receiving the first handshake messages from a client, the server
      cannot consider the client to be authenticated until it receives
      and validates the client's Finished message.

      The requirement for the server to wait for the client Finished
      message creates a dependency on that message being delivered.  A
      client can avoid the potential for head-of-line blocking that this
      implies by sending a copy of the STREAM frame that carries the
      Finished message in multiple packets.  This enables immediate
      server processing for those packets.

4.1.2.  Encryption Level Changes

   At each change of encryption level in either direction, TLS signals
   QUIC, providing the new level and the encryption keys.  These events
   are not asynchronous, they always occur immediately after TLS is
   provided with new handshake octets, or after TLS produces handshake
   octets.

   If 0-RTT is possible, it is ready after the client sends a TLS
   ClientHello message or the server receives that message.  After
   providing a QUIC client with the first handshake octets, the TLS
   stack might signal the change to 0-RTT keys.  On the server, after

Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   receiving handshake octets that contain a ClientHello message, a TLS
   server might signal that 0-RTT keys are available.

   Note that although TLS only uses one encryption level at a time, QUIC
   may use more than one level.  For instance, after sending its
   Finished message (using a CRYPTO frame in Handshake encryption) may
   send STREAM data (in 1-RTT encryption).  However, if the Finished is
   lost, the client would have to retransmit the Finished, in which case
   it would use Handshake encryption.

4.1.3.  TLS Interface Summary

   Figure 3 summarizes the exchange between QUIC and TLS for both client
   and server.  Each arrow is tagged with the encryption level used for
   that transmission.

4.2.  TLS Version

   This document describes how TLS 1.3 [TLS13] is used with QUIC.

   In practice, the TLS handshake will negotiate a version of TLS to
   use.  This could result in a newer version of TLS than 1.3 being
   negotiated if both endpoints support that version.  This is
   acceptable provided that the features of TLS 1.3 that are used by
   QUIC are supported by the newer version.

   A badly configured TLS implementation could negotiate TLS 1.2 or
   another older version of TLS.  An endpoint MUST terminate the
   connection if a version of TLS older than 1.3 is negotiated.

4.3.  ClientHello Size

   QUIC requires that the initial handshake packet from a client fit
   within the payload of a single packet.  The size limits on QUIC
   packets mean that a record containing a ClientHello needs to fit
   within 1129 octets, though endpoints can reduce the size of their
   connection ID to increase by up to 22 octets.

   A TLS ClientHello can fit within this limit with ample space
   remaining.  However, there are several variables that could cause
   this limit to be exceeded.  Implementations are reminded that large
   session tickets or HelloRetryRequest cookies, multiple or large key
   shares, and long lists of supported ciphers, signature algorithms,
   versions, QUIC transport parameters, and other negotiable parameters
   and extensions could cause this message to grow.

   For servers, the size of the session tickets and HelloRetryRequest
   cookie extension can have an effect on a client's ability to connect.
   Choosing a small value increases the probability that these values
   can be successfully used by a client.

   The TLS implementation does not need to ensure that the ClientHello
   is sufficiently large.  QUIC PADDING frames are added to increase the
   size of the packet as necessary.

4.4.  Peer Authentication

   The requirements for authentication depend on the application
   protocol that is in use.  TLS provides server authentication and
   permits the server to request client authentication.

   A client MUST authenticate the identity of the server.  This
   typically involves verification that the identity of the server is

Thomson & Turner        Expires December 30, 2018              [Page 12]
Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   included in a certificate and that the certificate is issued by a
   trusted entity (see for example [RFC2818]).

   A server MAY request that the client authenticate during the
   handshake.  A server MAY refuse a connection if the client is unable
   to authenticate when requested.  The requirements for client
   authentication vary based on application protocol and deployment.

   A server MUST NOT use post-handshake client authentication (see
   Section 4.6.2 of [TLS13]).

4.5.  Enabling 0-RTT

   In order to be usable for 0-RTT, TLS MUST provide a NewSessionTicket
   message that contains the "max_early_data" extension with the value
   0xffffffff; the amount of data which the client can send in 0-RTT is
   controlled by the "initial_max_data" transport parameter supplied by
   the server.  A client MUST treat receipt of a NewSessionTicket that
   contains a "max_early_data" extension with any other value as a
   connection error of type PROTOCOL_VIOLATION.

   Early data within the TLS connection MUST NOT be used.  As it is for
   other TLS application data, a server MUST treat receiving early data
   on the TLS connection as a connection error of type
   PROTOCOL_VIOLATION.

4.6.  Rejecting 0-RTT

   A server rejects 0-RTT by rejecting 0-RTT at the TLS layer.  This
   also prevents QUIC from sending 0-RTT data.  A client that attempts
   0-RTT MUST also consider 0-RTT to be rejected if it receives a
   Version Negotiation packet.

   When 0-RTT is rejected, all connection characteristics that the
   client assumed might be incorrect.  This includes the choice of
   application protocol, transport parameters, and any application
   configuration.  The client therefore MUST reset the state of all
   streams, including application state bound to those streams.

4.7.  HelloRetryRequest

   In TLS over TCP, the HelloRetryRequest feature (see Section 4.1.4 of
   [TLS13]) can be used to correct a client's incorrect KeyShare
   extension as well as for a stateless round-trip check.  From the
   perspective of QUIC, this just looks like additional messages carried
   in the Initial encryption level.  Although it is in principle
   possible to use this feature for address verification in QUIC, QUIC
   implementations SHOULD instead use the Retry feature (see

Thomson & Turner        Expires December 30, 2018              [Page 13]
Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   Section 4.4.2 of [QUIC-TRANSPORT]).  HelloRetryRequest is still used
   to request key shares.

4.8.  TLS Errors

   If TLS experiences an error, it generates an appropriate alert as
   defined in Section 6 of [TLS13].

   A TLS alert is turned into a QUIC connection error by converting the
   one-octet alert description into a QUIC error code.  The alert
   description is added to 0x100 to produce a QUIC error code from the
   range reserved for CRYPTO_ERROR.  The resulting value is sent in a
   QUIC CONNECTION_CLOSE frame.

   The alert level of all TLS alerts is "fatal"; a TLS stack MUST NOT
   generate alerts at the "warning" level.

5.  QUIC Packet Protection

   As with TLS over TCP, QUIC encrypts packets with keys derived from
   the TLS handshake, using the AEAD algorithm negotiated by TLS.

5.1.  QUIC Packet Encryption Keys

   QUIC derives packet encryption keys in the same way as TLS 1.3: Each
   encryption level/direction pair has a secret value, which is then
   used to derive the traffic keys using as described in Section 7.3 of
   [TLS13]

   The keys for the Initial encryption level are computed based on the
   client's initial Destination Connection ID, as described in
   Section 5.1.1.

   The keys for the remaining encryption level are computed in the same
   fashion as the corresponding TLS keys (see Section 7 of [TLS13]),
   except that the label for HKDF-Expand-Label uses the prefix "quic "
   rather than "tls13 ".  A different label provides key separation
   between TLS and QUIC.

5.1.1.  Initial Secrets

   Initial packets are protected with a secret derived from the
   Destination Connection ID field from the client's first Initial
   packet of the connection.  Specifically:

Thomson & Turner        Expires December 30, 2018              [Page 14]
Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   initial_salt = 0x9c108f98520a5c5c32968e950e8a2c5fe06d6c38
   initial_secret =
       HKDF-Extract(initial_salt, client_dst_connection_id)

   client_initial_secret =
      HKDF-Expand-Label(initial_secret, "client in", Hash.length)
   server_initial_secret =
      HKDF-Expand-Label(initial_secret, "server in", Hash.length)

   Note that if the server sends a Retry, the client's Initial will
   correspond to a new connection and thus use the server provided
   Destination Connection ID.

   The hash function for HKDF when deriving handshake secrets and keys
   is SHA-256 [SHA].  The connection ID used with HKDF-Expand-Label is
   the initial Destination Connection ID.

   The value of initial_salt is a 20 octet sequence shown in the figure
   in hexadecimal notation.  Future versions of QUIC SHOULD generate a
   new salt value, thus ensuring that the keys are different for each
   version of QUIC.  This prevents a middlebox that only recognizes one
   version of QUIC from seeing or modifying the contents of handshake
   packets from future versions.

   Note:  The Destination Connection ID is of arbitrary length, and it
      could be zero length if the server sends a Retry packet with a
      zero-length Source Connection ID field.  In this case, the Initial
      keys provide no assurance to the client that the server received
      its packet; the client has to rely on the exchange that included
      the Retry packet for that property.

5.2.  QUIC AEAD Usage

   The Authentication Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) [AEAD]
   function used for QUIC packet protection is the AEAD that is
   negotiated for use with the TLS connection.  For example, if TLS is
   using the TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256, the AEAD_AES_128_GCM function is
   used.

   QUIC packets are protected prior to applying packet number encryption
   (Section 5.3).  The unprotected packet number is part of the
   associated data (A).  When removing packet protection, an endpoint
   first removes the protection from the packet number.

   All QUIC packets other than Version Negotiation and Retry packets are
   protected with an AEAD algorithm [AEAD].  Prior to establishing a
   shared secret, packets are protected with AEAD_AES_128_GCM and a key
   derived from the destination connection ID in the client's first

Thomson & Turner        Expires December 30, 2018              [Page 15]
Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   Initial packet (see Section 5.1.1).  This provides protection against
   off-path attackers and robustness against QUIC version unaware
   middleboxes, but not against on-path attackers.

   All ciphersuites currently defined for TLS 1.3 - and therefore QUIC -
   have a 16-byte authentication tag and produce an output 16 bytes
   larger than their input.

   The key and IV for the packet are computed as described in
   Section 5.1.  The nonce, N, is formed by combining the packet
   protection IV with the packet number.  The 64 bits of the
   reconstructed QUIC packet number in network byte order are left-
   padded with zeros to the size of the IV.  The exclusive OR of the
   padded packet number and the IV forms the AEAD nonce.

   The associated data, A, for the AEAD is the contents of the QUIC
   header, starting from the flags octet in either the short or long
   header.

   The input plaintext, P, for the AEAD is the content of the QUIC frame
   following the header, as described in [QUIC-TRANSPORT].

   The output ciphertext, C, of the AEAD is transmitted in place of P.

   Some AEAD functions have limits for how many packets can be encrypted
   under the same key and IV (see for example [AEBounds]).  This might
   be lower than the packet number limit.  An endpoint MUST initiate a
   key update (Section 6) prior to exceeding any limit set for the AEAD
   that is in use.

5.3.  Packet Number Protection

   QUIC packet numbers are protected using a key that is derived from
   the current set of secrets.  The key derived using the "pn" label is
   used to protect the packet number from casual observation.  The
   packet number protection algorithm depends on the negotiated AEAD.

   Packet number protection is applied after packet protection is
   applied (see Section 5.2).  The ciphertext of the packet is sampled
   and used as input to an encryption algorithm.

   In sampling the packet ciphertext, the packet number length is
   assumed to be 4 octets (its maximum possible encoded length), unless
   there is insufficient space in the packet for sampling.  The sampled
   ciphertext starts after allowing for a 4 octet packet number unless
   this would cause the sample to extend past the end of the packet.  If
   the sample would extend past the end of the packet, the end of the
   packet is sampled.

Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   For example, the sampled ciphertext for a packet with a short header
   can be determined by:

   sample_offset = 1 + len(connection_id) + 4

   if sample_offset + sample_length > packet_length then
       sample_offset = packet_length - sample_length
   sample = packet[sample_offset..sample_offset+sample_length]

   A packet with a long header is sampled in the same way, noting that
   multiple QUIC packets might be included in the same UDP datagram and
   that each one is handled separately.

   sample_offset = 6 + len(destination_connection_id) +
                       len(source_connection_id) +
                       len(payload_length) + 4

   To ensure that this process does not sample the packet number, packet
   number protection algorithms MUST NOT sample more ciphertext than the
   minimum expansion of the corresponding AEAD.

   Packet number protection is applied to the packet number encoded as
   described in Section 4.8 of [QUIC-TRANSPORT].  Since the length of
   the packet number is stored in the first octet of the encoded packet
   number, it may be necessary to progressively decrypt the packet
   number.

   Before a TLS ciphersuite can be used with QUIC, a packet protection
   algorithm MUST be specifed for the AEAD used with that ciphersuite.
   This document defines algorithms for AEAD_AES_128_GCM,
   AEAD_AES_128_CCM, AEAD_AES_256_GCM, AEAD_AES_256_CCM (all AES AEADs
   are defined in [AEAD]), and AEAD_CHACHA20_POLY1305 ([CHACHA]).

5.3.1.  AES-Based Packet Number Protection

   This section defines the packet protection algorithm for
   AEAD_AES_128_GCM, AEAD_AES_128_CCM, AEAD_AES_256_GCM, and
   AEAD_AES_256_CCM.  AEAD_AES_128_GCM and AEAD_AES_128_CCM use 128-bit
   AES [AES] in counter (CTR) mode.  AEAD_AES_256_GCM, and
   AEAD_AES_256_CCM use 256-bit AES in CTR mode.

   This algorithm samples 16 octets from the packet ciphertext.  This
   value is used as the counter input to AES-CTR.

   encrypted_pn = AES-CTR(pn_key, sample, packet_number)

5.3.2.  ChaCha20-Based Packet Number Protection

   When AEAD_CHACHA20_POLY1305 is in use, packet number protection uses
   the raw ChaCha20 function as defined in Section 2.4 of [CHACHA].
   This uses a 256-bit key and 16 octets sampled from the packet
   protection output.

   The first 4 octets of the sampled ciphertext are interpreted as a
   32-bit number in little-endian order and are used as the block count.
   The remaining 12 octets are interpreted as three concatenated 32-bit
   numbers in little-endian order and used as the nonce.

   The encoded packet number is then encrypted with ChaCha20 directly.
   In pseudocode:

   counter = DecodeLE(sample[0..3])
   nonce = DecodeLE(sample[4..7], sample[8..11], sample[12..15])
   encrypted_pn = ChaCha20(pn_key, counter, nonce, packet_number)

5.4.  Receiving Protected Packets

   Once an endpoint successfully receives a packet with a given packet
   number, it MUST discard all packets in the same packet number space
   with higher packet numbers if they cannot be successfully unprotected
   with either the same key, or - if there is a key update - the next
   packet protection key (see Section 6).  Similarly, a packet that
   appears to trigger a key update, but cannot be unprotected
   successfully MUST be discarded.

   Failure to unprotect a packet does not necessarily indicate the
   existence of a protocol error in a peer or an attack.  The truncated
   packet number encoding used in QUIC can cause packet numbers to be
   decoded incorrectly if they are delayed significantly.

5.5.  Use of 0-RTT Keys

   If 0-RTT keys are available (see Section 4.5), the lack of replay
   protection means that restrictions on their use are necessary to
   avoid replay attacks on the protocol.

   A client MUST only use 0-RTT keys to protect data that is idempotent.
   A client MAY wish to apply additional restrictions on what data it
   sends prior to the completion of the TLS handshake.  A client
   otherwise treats 0-RTT keys as equivalent to 1-RTT keys, except that
   it MUST NOT send ACKs with 0-RTT keys.

   A client that receives an indication that its 0-RTT data has been
   accepted by a server can send 0-RTT data until it receives all of the

Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   server's handshake messages.  A client SHOULD stop sending 0-RTT data
   if it receives an indication that 0-RTT data has been rejected.

   A server MUST NOT use 0-RTT keys to protect packets; it uses 1-RTT
   keys to protect acknowledgements of 0-RTT packets.  Clients MUST NOT
   attempt to decrypt 0-RTT packets it receives and instead MUST discard
   them.

   Note:  0-RTT data can be acknowledged by the server as it receives
      it, but any packets containing acknowledgments of 0-RTT data
      cannot have packet protection removed by the client until the TLS
      handshake is complete.  The 1-RTT keys necessary to remove packet
      protection cannot be derived until the client receives all server
      handshake messages.

5.6.  Receiving Out-of-Order Protected Frames

   Due to reordering and loss, protected packets might be received by an
   endpoint before the final TLS handshake messages are received.  A
   client will be unable to decrypt 1-RTT packets from the server,
   whereas a server will be able to decrypt 1-RTT packets from the
   client.

   However, a server MUST NOT process data from incoming 1-RTT protected
   packets before verifying either the client Finished message or - in
   the case that the server has chosen to use a pre-shared key - the
   pre-shared key binder (see Section 4.2.11 of [TLS13]).  Verifying
   these values provides the server with an assurance that the
   ClientHello has not been modified.  Packets protected with 1-RTT keys
   MAY be stored and later decrypted and used once the handshake is
   complete.

   A server could receive packets protected with 0-RTT keys prior to
   receiving a TLS ClientHello.  The server MAY retain these packets for
   later decryption in anticipation of receiving a ClientHello.

6.  Key Update

   Once the 1-RTT keys are established and the short header is in use,
   it is possible to update the keys.  The KEY_PHASE bit in the short
   header is used to indicate whether key updates have occurred.  The
   KEY_PHASE bit is initially set to 0 and then inverted with each key
   update Section 6.

   The KEY_PHASE bit allows a recipient to detect a change in keying
   material without necessarily needing to receive the first packet that
   triggered the change.  An endpoint that notices a changed KEY_PHASE

Thomson & Turner        Expires December 30, 2018              [Page 19]
Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   bit can update keys and decrypt the packet that contains the changed
   bit, see Section 6.

   An endpoint MUST NOT initiate more than one key update at a time.  A
   new key cannot be used until the endpoint has received and
   successfully decrypted a packet with a matching KEY_PHASE.

   A receiving endpoint detects an update when the KEY_PHASE bit doesn't
   match what it is expecting.  It creates a new secret (see Section 7.2
   of [TLS13]) and the corresponding read key and IV.  If the packet can
   be decrypted and authenticated using these values, then the keys it
   uses for packet protection are also updated.  The next packet sent by
   the endpoint will then use the new keys.

   An endpoint doesn't need to send packets immediately when it detects
   that its peer has updated keys.  The next packet that it sends will
   simply use the new keys.  If an endpoint detects a second update
   before it has sent any packets with updated keys it indicates that
   its peer has updated keys twice without awaiting a reciprocal update.
   An endpoint MUST treat consecutive key updates as a fatal error and
   abort the connection.

   An endpoint SHOULD retain old keys for a short period to allow it to
   decrypt packets with smaller packet numbers than the packet that
   triggered the key update.  This allows an endpoint to consume packets
   that are reordered around the transition between keys.  Packets with
   higher packet numbers always use the updated keys and MUST NOT be
   decrypted with old keys.

   Keys and their corresponding secrets SHOULD be discarded when an
   endpoint has received all packets with packet numbers lower than the
   lowest packet number used for the new key.  An endpoint might discard
   keys if it determines that the length of the delay to affected
   packets is excessive.

   This ensures that once the handshake is complete, packets with the
   same KEY_PHASE will have the same packet protection keys, unless
   there are multiple key updates in a short time frame succession and
   significant packet reordering.

                           Figure 4: Key Update

   A packet that triggers a key update could arrive after successfully
   processing a packet with a higher packet number.  This is only
   possible if there is a key compromise and an attack, or if the peer
   is incorrectly reverting to use of old keys.  Because the latter
   cannot be differentiated from an attack, an endpoint MUST immediately
   terminate the connection if it detects this condition.

7.  Security of Initial Messages

   Initial packets are not protected with a secret key, so they are
   subject to potential tampering by an attacker.  QUIC provides
   protection against attackers that cannot read packets, but does not
   attempt to provide additional protection against attacks where the
   attacker can observe and inject packets.  Some forms of tampering -
   such as modifying the TLS messages themselves - are detectable, but
   some - such as modifying ACKs - are not.

   For example, an attacker could inject a packet containing an ACK
   frame that makes it appear that a packet had not been received or to
   create a false impression of the state of the connection (e.g., by
   modifying the ACK Delay).  Note that such a packet could cause a
   legitimate packet to be dropped as a duplicate.  Implementations
   SHOULD use caution in relying on any data which is contained in
   Initial packets that is not otherwise authenticated.

   It is also possible for the attacker to tamper with data that is
   carried in Handshake packets, but because that tampering requires
   modifying TLS handshake messages, that tampering will cause the TLS
   handshake to fail.

8.  QUIC-Specific Additions to the TLS Handshake

   QUIC uses the TLS handshake for more than just negotiation of
   cryptographic parameters.  The TLS handshake validates protocol
   version selection, provides preliminary values for QUIC transport

Thomson & Turner        Expires December 30, 2018              [Page 21]
Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   parameters, and allows a server to perform return routeability checks
   on clients.

8.1.  Protocol and Version Negotiation

   The QUIC version negotiation mechanism is used to negotiate the
   version of QUIC that is used prior to the completion of the
   handshake.  However, this packet is not authenticated, enabling an
   active attacker to force a version downgrade.

   To ensure that a QUIC version downgrade is not forced by an attacker,
   version information is copied into the TLS handshake, which provides
   integrity protection for the QUIC negotiation.  This does not prevent
   version downgrade prior to the completion of the handshake, though it
   means that a downgrade causes a handshake failure.

   TLS uses Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) [RFC7301] to
   select an application protocol.  The application-layer protocol MAY
   restrict the QUIC versions that it can operate over.  Servers MUST
   select an application protocol compatible with the QUIC version that
   the client has selected.

   If the server cannot select a compatible combination of application
   protocol and QUIC version, it MUST abort the connection.  A client
   MUST abort a connection if the server picks an incompatible
   combination of QUIC version and ALPN identifier.

8.2.  QUIC Transport Parameters Extension

   QUIC transport parameters are carried in a TLS extension.  Different
   versions of QUIC might define a different format for this struct.

   Including transport parameters in the TLS handshake provides
   integrity protection for these values.

      enum {
         quic_transport_parameters(0xffa5), (65535)
      } ExtensionType;

   The "extension_data" field of the quic_transport_parameters extension
   contains a value that is defined by the version of QUIC that is in
   use.  The quic_transport_parameters extension carries a
   TransportParameters when the version of QUIC defined in
   [QUIC-TRANSPORT] is used.

   The quic_transport_parameters extension is carried in the ClientHello
   and the EncryptedExtensions messages during the handshake.

Thomson & Turner        Expires December 30, 2018              [Page 22]
Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

   While the transport parameters are technically available prior to the
   completion of the handshake, they cannot be fully trusted until the
   handshake completes, and reliance on them should be minimized.
   However, any tampering with the parameters will cause the handshake
   to fail.

9.  Security Considerations

   There are likely to be some real clangers here eventually, but the
   current set of issues is well captured in the relevant sections of
   the main text.

   Never assume that because it isn't in the security considerations
   section it doesn't affect security.  Most of this document does.

9.1.  Packet Reflection Attack Mitigation

   A small ClientHello that results in a large block of handshake
   messages from a server can be used in packet reflection attacks to
   amplify the traffic generated by an attacker.

   QUIC includes three defenses against this attack.  First, the packet
   containing a ClientHello MUST be padded to a minimum size.  Second,
   if responding to an unverified source address, the server is
   forbidden to send more than three UDP datagrams in its first flight
   (see Section 4.4.3 of [QUIC-TRANSPORT]).  Finally, because
   acknowledgements of Handshake packets are authenticated, a blind
   attacker cannot forge them.  Put together, these defenses limit the
   level of amplification.

9.2.  Peer Denial of Service

   QUIC, TLS and HTTP/2 all contain a messages that have legitimate uses
   in some contexts, but that can be abused to cause a peer to expend
   processing resources without having any observable impact on the
   state of the connection.  If processing is disproportionately large
   in comparison to the observable effects on bandwidth or state, then
   this could allow a malicious peer to exhaust processing capacity
   without consequence.

   QUIC prohibits the sending of empty "STREAM" frames unless they are
   marked with the FIN bit.  This prevents "STREAM" frames from being
   sent that only waste effort.

   While there are legitimate uses for some redundant packets,
   implementations SHOULD track redundant packets and treat excessive
   volumes of any non-productive packets as indicative of an attack.

Internet-Draft                QUIC over TLS                    June 2018

9.3.  Packet Number Protection Analysis

   Packet number protection relies on the packet protection AEAD being a
   pseudorandom function (PRF), which is not a property that AEAD
   algorithms guarantee.  Therefore, no strong assurances about the
   general security of this mechanism can be shown in the general case.
   The AEAD algorithms described in this document are assumed to be
   PRFs.

   The packet number protection algorithms defined in this document take
   the form:

   encrypted_pn = packet_number XOR PRF(pn_key, sample)

   This construction is secure against chosen plaintext attacks (IND-
   CPA) [IMC].

   Use of the same key and ciphertext sample more than once risks
   compromising packet number protection.  Protecting two different
   packet numbers with the same key and ciphertext sample reveals the
   exclusive OR of those packet numbers.  Assuming that the AEAD acts as
   a PRF, if L bits are sampled, the odds of two ciphertext samples
   being identical approach 2^(-L/2), that is, the birthday bound.  For
   the algorithms described in this document, that probability is one in
   2^64.

   Note:  In some cases, inputs shorter than the full size required by
      the packet protection algorithm might be used.

   To prevent an attacker from modifying packet numbers, values of
   packet numbers are transitively authenticated using packet
   protection; packet numbers are part of the authenticated additional
   data.  A falsified or modified packet number can only be detected
   once the packet protection is removed.

   An attacker can guess values for packet numbers and have an endpoint
   confirm guesses through timing side channels.  If the recipient of a
   packet discards packets with duplicate packet numbers without
   attempting to remove packet protection they could reveal through
   timing side-channels that the packet number matches a received
   packet.  For authentication to be free from side-channels, the entire
   process of packet number protection removal, packet number recovery,
   and packet protection removal MUST be applied together without timing
   and other side-channels.

   For the sending of packets, construction and protection of packet
   payloads and packet numbers MUST be free from side-channels that
   would reveal the packet number or its encoded size.

10.  IANA Considerations

   This document does not create any new IANA registries, but it
   registers the values in the following registries:

   o  TLS ExtensionsType Registry [TLS-REGISTRIES] - IANA is to register
      the quic_transport_parameters extension found in Section 8.2.  The
      Recommended column is to be marked Yes.  The TLS 1.3 Column is to
      include CH and EE.
