Abstract

   The Microsoft Windows 2000 implementation of Kerberos introduces a
   new encryption type based on the RC4 encryption algorithm and using
   an MD5 HMAC for checksum.  This is offered as an alternative to using
   the existing DES based encryption types.

   The RC4-HMAC encryption types are used to ease upgrade of existing
   Windows NT environments, provide strong crypto (128-bit key lengths),

1.  Introduction

   The Microsoft Windows 2000 implementation of Kerberos contains new
   encryption and checksum types for two reasons: for export reasons
   early in the development process, 56 bit DES encryption could not be
   exported, and because upon upgrade from Windows NT 4.0 to Windows
   2000, accounts will not have the appropriate DES keying material to
   do the standard DES encryption.  Furthermore, 3DES is not available
   for export, and there was a desire to use a single flavor of
   encryption in the product for both US and international products.

   As a result, there are two new encryption types and one new checksum
   type introduced in Microsoft Windows 2000.

3.  Key Generation

   On upgrade from existing Windows NT domains, the user accounts would
   not have a DES based key available to enable the use of DES base
   encryption types specified in RFC 1510.  The key used for RC4-HMAC is
   the same as the existing Windows NT key (NT Password Hash) for
   compatibility reasons.  Once the account password is changed, the DES
   based keys are created and maintained.  Once the DES keys are
   available DES based encryption types can be used with Kerberos.

   The RC4-HMAC String to key function is defined as follow:

      String2Key(password)

           K = MD4(UNICODE(password))

   The RC4-HMAC keys are generated by using the Windows UNICODE version
   of the password.  Each Windows UNICODE character is encoded in
   little-endian format of 2 octets each.  Then performing an MD4
   [RFC1320] hash operation on just the UNICODE characters of the
   password (not including the terminating zero octets).

   For an account with a password of "foo", this String2Key("foo") will
   return:

           0xac, 0x8e, 0x65, 0x7f, 0x83, 0xdf, 0x82, 0xbe,
           0xea, 0x5d, 0x43, 0xbd, 0xaf, 0x78, 0x00, 0xcc

4.  Basic Operations

   The MD5 HMAC function is defined in [RFC2104].  It is used in this
   encryption type for checksum operations.  Refer to [RFC2104] for
   details on its operation.  In this document this function is referred
   to as HMAC(Key, Data) returning the checksum using the specified key
   on the data.

   The basic MD5 hash operation is used in this encryption type and
   defined in [RFC1321].  In this document this function is referred to
   as MD5(Data) returning the checksum of the data.

   RC4 is a stream cipher licensed by RSA Data Security .  In this
   document the function is referred to as RC4(Key, Data) returning the
   encrypted data using the specified key on the data.

   These encryption types use key derivation.  With each message, the
   message type (T) is used as a component of the keying material.  This
   table summarizes the different key derivation values used in the
   various operations.  Note that these differ from the key derivations
   used in other Kerberos encryption types.  T = the message type,
   encoded as a little-endian four byte integer.

   The lengths of ASCII encoded character strings include the trailing
   terminator character (0).  The concat(a,b,c,...) function will return
   the logical concatenation (left to right) of the values of the
   arguments.  The nonce(n) function returns a pseudo-random number of
   "n" octets.

      K - is the Key
      T - the message type, encoded as a little-endian four byte integer

      CHKSUM(K, T, data)

           Ksign = HMAC(K, "signaturekey")  //includes zero octet at end
           tmp = MD5(concat(T, data))
           CHKSUM = HMAC(Ksign, tmp)

6.  Encryption Types

   There are two encryption types used in these encryption types.  The
   Kerberos constants for these types are:

           #define KERB_ETYPE_RC4_HMAC             23
           #define KERB_ETYPE_RC4_HMAC_EXP         24

   The basic encryption function is defined as follow:

     T = the message type, encoded as a little-endian four byte integer.

           OCTET L40[14] = "fortybits";
           OCTET SK = "signaturekey";

      The header field on the encrypted data in KDC messages is:

           typedef struct _RC4_MDx_HEADER {
               OCTET Checksum[16];
               OCTET Confounder[8];
           } RC4_MDx_HEADER, *PRC4_MDx_HEADER;


           ENCRYPT (K, export, T, data)
           {
               struct EDATA {
                   struct HEADER {
                           OCTET Checksum[16];
                           OCTET Confounder[8];
                   } Header;
                   OCTET Data[0];
               } edata;

               if (export){
                   *((DWORD *)(L40+10)) = T;
                   HMAC (K, L40, 10 + 4, K1);
               }
               else
               {
                   HMAC (K, &T, 4, K1);
               }
               memcpy (K2, K1, 16);
               if (export) memset (K1+7, 0xAB, 9);

               nonce (edata.Confounder, 8);
               memcpy (edata.Data, data);

               edata.Checksum = HMAC (K2, edata);

               }
               else
               {
                   HMAC (K, &T, 4, K1);
               }
               memcpy (K2, K1, 16);
               if (export) memset (K1+7, 0xAB, 9);

               K3 = HMAC (K1, edata.Checksum);

               RC4 (K3, edata.Confounder);
               RC4 (K3, edata.Data);


               // verify generated and received checksums
             checksum = HMAC (K2, concat(edata.Confounder, edata.Data));
               if (checksum != edata.Checksum)
                   printf("CHECKSUM ERROR  !!!!!!\n");
           }

   The KDC message is encrypted using the ENCRYPT function not including
   the Checksum in the RC4_MDx_HEADER.

   The character constant "fortybits" evolved from the time when a 40-
   bit key length was all that was exportable from the United States.
   It is now used to recognize that the key length is of "exportable"
   length.  In this description, the key size is actually 56-bits.

   The pseudo-random operation [RFC3961] for both enctypes above is
   defined as follows:

           pseudo-random(K, S) = HMAC-SHA1(K, S)

   where K is the protocol key and S is the input octet string.  HMAC-
   SHA1 is defined in [RFC2104] and the output of HMAC-SHA1 is the 20-
   octet digest.

7.  Key Strength Negotiation

   A Kerberos client and server can negotiate over key length if they
   are using mutual authentication.  If the client is unable to perform
   full strength encryption, it may propose a key in the "subkey" field
   of the authenticator, using a weaker encryption type.  The server
   must then either return the same key or suggest its own key in the
   subkey field of the AP reply message.  The key used to encrypt data
   is derived from the key returned by the server.  If the client is
   able to perform strong encryption but the server is not, it may
   propose a subkey in the AP reply without first being sent a subkey in
   the authenticator.

8.  GSSAPI Kerberos V5 Mechanism Type

8.1   Mechanism Specific Changes

   The GSSAPI per-message tokens also require new checksum and
   encryption types.  The GSS-API per-message tokens are adapted to
   support these new encryption types.  See [RFC1964] Section 1.2.2.

   The only support quality of protection is:

         #define GSS_KRB5_INTEG_C_QOP_DEFAULT    0x0

   When using this RC4 based encryption type, the sequence number is
   always sent in big-endian rather than little-endian order.

   The Windows 2000 implementation also defines new GSSAPI flags in the
   initial token passed when initializing a security context.  These
   flags are passed in the checksum field of the authenticator.  See
   [RFC1964] Section 1.1.1.

   GSS_C_DCE_STYLE - This flag was added for use with Microsoft's
   implementation of DCE RPC, which initially expected three legs of
   authentication.  Setting this flag causes an extra AP reply to be
   sent from the client back to the server after receiving the server's
   AP reply.  In addition, the context negotiation tokens do not have
   GSSAPI per message tokens - they are raw AP messages that do not
   include object identifiers.

           #define GSS_C_DCE_STYLE                 0x1000

   GSS_C_IDENTIFY_FLAG - This flag allows the client to indicate to the
   server that it should only allow the server application to identify
   the client by name and ID, but not to impersonate the client.

           #define GSS_C_IDENTIFY_FLAG             0x2000

   GSS_C_EXTENDED_ERROR_FLAG - Setting this flag indicates that the
   client wants to be informed of extended error information.  In
   particular, Windows 2000 status codes may be returned in the data
   field of a Kerberos error message.  This allows the client to
   understand a server failure more precisely.  In addition, the server
   may return errors to the client that are normally handled at the
   application layer in the server, in order to let the client try to
   recover.  After receiving an error message, the client may attempt to
   resubmit an AP request.

           #define GSS_C_EXTENDED_ERROR_FLAG       0x4000

   These flags are only used if a client is aware of these conventions
   when using the SSPI on the Windows platform; they are not generally
   used by default.

   When NetBIOS addresses are used in the GSSAPI, they are identified by
   the GSS_C_AF_NETBIOS value.  This value is defined as:

           #define GSS_C_AF_NETBIOS                0x14

   NetBios addresses are 16-octet addresses typically composed of 1 to
   15 characters, trailing blank (ASCII char 20) filled, with a 16-th
   octet of 0x0.

8.2   GSSAPI MIC Semantics

   The GSSAPI checksum type and algorithm is defined in Section 5.  Only
   the first 8 octets of the checksum are used.  The resulting checksum
   is stored in the SGN_CKSUM field .  See [RFC1964] Section 1.2 for
   GSS_GetMIC() and GSS_Wrap(conf_flag=FALSE).

   The GSS_GetMIC token has the following format:

        Byte no         Name        Description
        0..1           TOK_ID     Identification field.
                                  Tokens emitted by GSS_GetMIC() contain
                                  the hex value 01 01 in this field.
        2..3           SGN_ALG    Integrity algorithm indicator.
                                  11 00 - HMAC
        4..7           Filler     Contains ff ff ff ff
        8..15          SND_SEQ    Sequence number field.
        16..23         SGN_CKSUM  Checksum of "to-be-signed data",

8.3   GSSAPI WRAP Semantics

   There are two encryption keys for GSSAPI message tokens, one that is
   128 bits in strength, and one that is 56 bits in strength as defined
   in Section 6.

   All padding is rounded up to 1 byte.  One byte is needed to say that
   there is 1 byte of padding.  The DES based mechanism type uses 8 byte
   padding.  See [RFC1964] Section 1.2.2.3.

   The RC4-HMAC GSS_Wrap() token has the following format:


      Byte no          Name         Description
        0..1           TOK_ID       Identification field.
                                    Tokens emitted by GSS_Wrap() contain
                                    the hex value 02 01 in this field.
        2..3           SGN_ALG      Checksum algorithm indicator.
                                    11 00 - HMAC
        4..5           SEAL_ALG     ff ff - none
                                    00 00 - DES-CBC
                                    10 00 - RC4
        6..7           Filler       Contains ff ff
        8..15          SND_SEQ      Encrypted sequence number field.
        16..23         SGN_CKSUM    Checksum of plaintext padded data,
                                    calculated according to algorithm
                                    specified in SGN_ALG field.
        24..31         Confounder   Random confounder
        32..last       Data         encrypted or plaintext padded data

   The encryption mechanism used for GSS wrap based messages is as
   follow:


           WRAP(Kss, encrypt, direction, export, seq_num, data)
           {
                   struct Token {          // 32 octets
                          struct Header {
                                 OCTET TOK_ID[2];

   The character constant "fortybits" evolved from the time when a 40-
   bit key length was all that was exportable from the United States.
   It is now used to recognize that the key length is of "exportable"
   length.  In this description, the key size is actually 56-bits.

9.  Security Considerations

   Care must be taken in implementing this encryption type because it
   uses a stream cipher.  If a different IV isn't used in each direction
   when using a session key, the encryption is weak.  By using the
   sequence number as an IV, this is avoided.
