Connection Identifiers for DTLS 1.2
draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-07
Abstract
This document specifies the Connection ID (CID) construct for the
Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol version 1.2.
A CID is an identifier carried in the record layer header that gives
the recipient additional information for selecting the appropriate
security association. In "classical" DTLS, selecting a security
association of an incoming DTLS record is accomplished with the help
of the 5-tuple. If the source IP address and/or source port changes
during the lifetime of an ongoing DTLS session then the receiver will
be unable to locate the correct security context.

Internet-Draft DTLS 1.2 Connection ID October 2019
1. Introduction
The Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol was designed
for securing connection-less transports, like UDP. DTLS, like TLS,
starts with a handshake, which can be computationally demanding
(particularly when public key cryptography is used). After a
successful handshake, symmetric key cryptography is used to apply
data origin authentication, integrity and confidentiality protection.
This two-step approach allows endpoints to amortize the cost of the
initial handshake across subsequent application data protection.
Ideally, the second phase where application data is protected lasts
over a longer period of time since the established keys will only
need to be updated once the key lifetime expires.
In the current version of DTLS, the IP address and port of the peer
are used to identify the DTLS association. Unfortunately, in some
cases, such as NAT rebinding, these values are insufficient. This is
a particular issue in the Internet of Things when devices enter
extended sleep periods to increase their battery lifetime. The NAT
rebinding leads to connection failure, with the resulting cost of a
new handshake.
This document defines an extension to DTLS 1.2 to add a CID to the
DTLS record layer. The presence of the CID is negotiated via a DTLS
extension.
2. Conventions and Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC
2119 [RFC2119].
This document assumes familiarity with DTLS 1.2 [RFC6347].
3. The "connection_id" Extension
This document defines the "connection_id" extension, which is used in
ClientHello and ServerHello messages.
The extension type is specified as follows.
enum {
connection_id(TBD1), (65535)
} ExtensionType;
The extension_data field of this extension, when included in the
ClientHello, MUST contain the ConnectionId structure. This structure
Rescorla, et al. Expires April 23, 2020 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft DTLS 1.2 Connection ID October 2019
contains the CID value the client wishes the server to use when
sending messages to the client. A zero-length CID value indicates
that the client is prepared to send with a CID but does not wish the
server to use one when sending. Alternatively, this can be
interpreted as the client wishes the server to use a zero-length CID;
the result is the same.
struct {
opaque cid<0..2^8-1>;
} ConnectionId;
A server willing to use CIDs will respond with a "connection_id"
extension in the ServerHello, containing the CID it wishes the client
to use when sending messages towards it. A zero-length value
indicates that the server will send with the client's CID but does
not wish the client to include a CID (or again, alternately, to use a
zero-length CID).
Because each party sends the value in the "connection_id" extension
it wants to receive as a CID in encrypted records, it is possible for
an endpoint to use a globally constant length for such connection
identifiers. This can in turn ease parsing and connection lookup,
for example by having the length in question be a compile-time
constant. Implementations, which want to use variable-length CIDs,
are responsible for constructing the CID in such a way that its
length can be determined on reception. Such implementations must
still be able to send CIDs of different length to other parties.
Note that there is no CID length information included in the record
itself.
In DTLS 1.2, CIDs are exchanged at the beginning of the DTLS session
only. There is no dedicated "CID update" message that allows new
CIDs to be established mid-session, because DTLS 1.2 in general does
not allow TLS 1.3-style post-handshake messages that do not
themselves begin other handshakes. When a DTLS session is resumed or
renegotiated, the "connection_id" extension is negotiated afresh.
If DTLS peers have not negotiated the use of CIDs then the RFC
6347-defined record format and content type MUST be used.
If DTLS peers have negotiated the use of a CIDs using the ClientHello
and the ServerHello messages then the peers need to take the
following steps.
The DTLS peers determine whether incoming and outgoing messages need
to use the new record format, i.e., the record format containing the
CID. The new record format with the the tls12_cid content type is
Rescorla, et al. Expires April 23, 2020 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft DTLS 1.2 Connection ID October 2019
only used once encryption is enabled. Plaintext payloads never use
the new record type and the CID content type.
For sending, if a zero-length CID has been negotiated then the RFC
6347-defined record format and content type MUST be used (see
Section 4.1 of [RFC6347]) else the new record layer format with the
tls12_cid content type defined in Figure 3 MUST be used.
When transmitting a datagram with the tls12_cid content type, the new
MAC computation defined in Section 5 MUST be used.
For receiving, if the tls12_cid content type is set, then the CID is
used to look up the connection and the security association. If the
tls12_cid content type is not set, then the connection and security
association is looked up by the 5-tuple and a check MUST be made to
determine whether the expected CID value is indeed zero length. If
the check fails, then the datagram MUST be dropped.
When receiving a datagram with the tls12_cid content type, the new
MAC computation defined in Section 5 MUST be used. When receiving a
datagram with the RFC 6347-defined record format the MAC calculation
defined in Section 4.1.2 of [RFC6347] MUST be used.
4. Record Layer Extensions
This specification defines the DTLS 1.2 record layer format and
[I-D.ietf-tls-dtls13] specifies how to carry the CID in DTLS 1.3.
To allow a receiver to determine whether a record has a CID or not,
connections which have negotiated this extension use a distinguished
record type tls12_cid(TBD2). Use of this content type has the
following three implications:
- The CID field is present and contains one or more bytes.
- The MAC calculation follows the process described in Section 5.
- The true content type is inside the encryption envelope, as
described below.
Plaintext records are not impacted by this extension. Hence, the
format of the DTLSPlaintext structure is left unchanged, as shown in
Figure 1.
Rescorla, et al. Expires April 23, 2020 [Page 5]

struct {
ContentType type;
ProtocolVersion version;
uint16 epoch;
uint48 sequence_number;
uint16 length;
opaque fragment[DTLSPlaintext.length];
} DTLSPlaintext;
Figure 1: DTLS 1.2 Plaintext Record Payload.
When CIDs are being used, the content to be sent is first wrapped
along with its content type and optional padding into a
DTLSInnerPlaintext structure. This newly introduced structure is
shown in Figure 2. The DTLSInnerPlaintext byte sequence is then
encrypted. To create the DTLSCiphertext structure shown in Figure 3
the CID is added.
struct {
opaque content[length];
ContentType real_type;
uint8 zeros[length_of_padding];
} DTLSInnerPlaintext;
Figure 2: New DTLSInnerPlaintext Payload Structure.
content Corresponds to the fragment of a given length.
real_type The content type describing the payload.
zeros An arbitrary-length run of zero-valued bytes may appear in the
cleartext after the type field. This provides an opportunity for
senders to pad any DTLS record by a chosen amount as long as the
total stays within record size limits. See Section 5.4 of
[RFC8446] for more details. (Note that the term TLSInnerPlaintext
in RFC 8446 refers to DTLSInnerPlaintext in this specification.)

ContentType special_type = tls12_cid;

special_type The outer content type of a DTLSCiphertext record
carrying a CID is always set to tls12_cid(TBD2). The real content
type of the record is found in DTLSInnerPlaintext.real_type after
decryption.
cid The CID value, cid_length bytes long, as agreed at the time the
extension has been negotiated.
enc_content The encrypted form of the serialized DTLSInnerPlaintext
structure.
All other fields are as defined in RFC 6347.
5. Record Payload Protection
Several types of ciphers have been defined for use with TLS and DTLS
and the MAC calculation for those ciphers differs slightly.
This specification modifies the MAC calculation defined in [RFC6347]
and [RFC7366] as well as the definition of the additional data used
with AEAD ciphers provided in [RFC6347] for records with content type
tls12_cid. The modified algorithm MUST NOT be applied to records
that do not carry a CID, i.e., records with content type other than
tls12_cid.
The following fields are defined in this document; all other fields
are as defined in the cited documents.
cid Value of the negotiated CID.
cid_length 1 byte field indicating the length of the negotiated CID.
length_of_DTLSInnerPlaintext The length (in bytes) of the serialised
DTLSInnerPlaintext.
The length MUST NOT exceed 2^14.
Note "+" denotes concatenation.
5.1. Block Ciphers
The following MAC algorithm applies to block ciphers that do not use
the with Encrypt-then-MAC processing described in [RFC7366].

calculation.

length_of_DTLSInnerPlaintext;
6. Peer Address Update
When a record with a CID is received that has a source address
different than the one currently associated with the DTLS connection,
the receiver MUST NOT replace the address it uses for sending records
to its peer with the source address specified in the received
datagram unless the following conditions are met:
- The received datagram has been cryptographically verified using
the DTLS record layer processing procedures.
Rescorla, et al. Expires April 23, 2020 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft DTLS 1.2 Connection ID October 2019
- The received datagram is "newer" (in terms of both epoch and
sequence number) than the newest datagram received. Reordered
datagrams that are sent prior to a change in a peer address might
otherwise cause a valid address change to be reverted. This also
limits the ability of an attacker to use replayed datagrams to
force a spurious address change, which could result in denial of
service. An attacker might be able to succeed in changing a peer
address if they are able to rewrite source addresses and if
replayed packets are able to arrive before any original.
- There is a strategy for ensuring that the new peer address is able
to receive and process DTLS records. No such test is defined in
this specification.
The above is necessary to protect against attacks that use datagrams
with spoofed addresses or replayed datagrams to trigger attacks.
Note that there is no requirement to use of the anti-replay window
mechanism defined in Section 4.1.2.6 of DTLS 1.2. Both solutions,
the "anti-replay window" or "newer algorithm" will prevent address
updates from replay attacks while the latter will only apply to peer
address updates and the former applies to any application layer
traffic.
Application protocols that implement protection against these attacks
depend on being aware of changes in peer addresses so that they can
engage the necessary mechanisms. When delivered such an event, an
application layer-specific address validation mechanism can be
triggered, for example one that is based on successful exchange of
minimal amount of ping-pong traffic with the peer. Alternatively, an
DTLS-specific mechanism may be used, as described in
[I-D.tschofenig-tls-dtls-rrc].
7. Examples
Figure 4 shows an example exchange where a CID is used uni-
directionally from the client to the server. To indicate that a
zero-length CID we use the term 'connection_id=empty'.

once encryption is enabled. In DTLS 1.2 only one handshake message
is encrypted, namely the Finished message. Since the example shows
Rescorla, et al. Expires April 23, 2020 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft DTLS 1.2 Connection ID October 2019
how to use the CID for payloads sent from the client to the server
only the record layer payloads containing the Finished messages
include a CID. Application data payloads sent from the client to the
server contain a CID in this example as well.
8. Privacy Considerations
The CID replaces the previously used 5-tuple and, as such, introduces
an identifier that remains persistent during the lifetime of a DTLS
connection. Every identifier introduces the risk of linkability, as
explained in [RFC6973].
An on-path adversary observing the DTLS protocol exchanges between
the DTLS client and the DTLS server is able to link the observed
payloads to all subsequent payloads carrying the same ID pair (for
bi-directional communication). Without multi-homing or mobility, the
use of the CID exposes the same information as the 5-tuple.
With multi-homing, a passive attacker is able to correlate the
communication interaction over the two paths and the sequence number
makes it possible to correlate packets across CID changes. The lack
of a CID update mechanism in DTLS 1.2 makes this extension unsuitable
for mobility scenarios where correlation must be considered.
Deployments that use DTLS in multi-homing environments and are
concerned about this aspects SHOULD refuse to use CIDs in DTLS 1.2
and switch to DTLS 1.3 where a CID update mechanism is provided and
sequence number encryption is available.
The specification introduces record padding for the CID-enhanced
record layer, which is a privacy feature not available with the
original DTLS 1.2 specification. Padding allows to inflate the size
of the ciphertext making traffic analysis more difficult. More
details about record padding can be found in Section 5.4 and
Appendix E.3 of RFC 8446.
Finally, endpoints can use the CID to attach arbitrary metadata to
each record they receive. This may be used as a mechanism to
communicate per-connection information to on-path observers. There
is no straightforward way to address this concern with CIDs that
contain arbitrary values. Implementations concerned about this
aspects SHOULD refuse to use CIDs.
9. Security Considerations
An on-path adversary can create reflection attacks against third
parties because a DTLS peer has no means to distinguish a genuine
address update event (for example, due to a NAT rebinding) from one
Rescorla, et al. Expires April 23, 2020 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft DTLS 1.2 Connection ID October 2019
that is malicious. This attack is of concern when there is a large
asymmetry of request/response message sizes.
Additionally, an attacker able to observe the data traffic exchanged
between two DTLS peers is able to replay datagrams with modified IP
address/port numbers.
The topic of peer address updates is discussed in Section 6.
10. IANA Considerations
IANA is requested to allocate an entry to the existing TLS
"ExtensionType Values" registry, defined in [RFC5246], for
connection_id(TBD1) as described in the table below. IANA is
requested to add an extra column to the TLS ExtensionType Values
registry to indicate whether an extension is only applicable to DTLS.
Value Extension Name TLS 1.3 DTLS Only Recommended Reference
--------------------------------------------------------------------
TBD1 connection_id - Y N [[This doc]]
Note: The value "N" in the Recommended column is set because this
extension is intended only for specific use cases. This document
describes an extension for DTLS 1.2 only; it is not to TLS (1.3).
The DTLS 1.3 functionality is described in [I-D.ietf-tls-dtls13].
IANA is requested to allocate tls12_cid(TBD2) in the "TLS ContentType
Registry". The tls12_cid ContentType is only applicable to DTLS 1.2.

Wood, Joseph Salowey, and Sean Turner, for their patience, support
and feedback.
