-1. Abstract
-
- The 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), and provide exportable (meet United States government
- export restriction requirements) encryption.
-
- The 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 Windows 2000.
-

-2. Conventions used in this document
-

-
- Windows 2000 RC4-HMAC Kerberos E-Type June 2000
-
-
- 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 RFC-2119 [2].
-
-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 [6]
- 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 [3]. It is used in this
- encryption type for checksum operations. Refer to [3] 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 [7]. 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 [RSADSI]. A
- compatible cipher is described in [8]. 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 as defined in [9] (RFC-
- 1510BIS) in Section titled "Key Derivation". With each message, the
- message type (T) is used as a component of the keying material. This
- summarizes the different key derivation values used in the various
-
-Swift Category - Informational 2
-
- Windows 2000 RC4-HMAC Kerberos E-Type June 2000
-
-
- operations. Note that these differ from the key derivations used in
- other Kerberos encryption types.
-
- T = 1 for TS-ENC-TS in the AS-Request
- T = 8 for the AS-Reply
- T = 7 for the Authenticator in the TGS-Request
- T = 8 for the TGS-Reply
- T = 2 for the Server Ticket in the AP-Request
- T = 11 for the Authenticator in the AP-Request
- T = 12 for the Server returned AP-Reply
- T = 15 in the generation of checksum for the MIC token
- T = 0 in the generation of sequence number for the MIC token
- T = 13 in the generation of checksum for the WRAP token
- T = 0 in the generation of sequence number for the WRAP token
- T = 0 in the generation of encrypted data for the WRAPPED token
-
- All strings in this document are ASCII unless otherwise specified.
- 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.
-
-5. Checksum Types
-
- There is one checksum type used in this encryption type. The
- Kerberos constant for this type is:
- #define KERB_CHECKSUM_HMAC_MD5 (-138)
-
- The function is defined as follows:
-
- 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.

- BYTE L40[14] = "fortybits";

-

- {
- if (fRC4_EXP){
- *((DWORD *)(L40+10)) = T;
- HMAC (K, L40, 10 + 4, K1);

- if (fRC4_EXP) memset (K1+7, 0xAB, 9);
- HMAC (K1, edata, 16, K3); // checksum is at edata
- RC4(K3, edata + 16, edata_len - 16, edata + 16);
- data_len = edata_len - 16 - 8;
- memcpy (data, edata + 16 + 8, data_len);
-
- // verify generated and received checksums
- HMAC (K2, edata + 16, edata_len - 16, checksum);
- if (memcmp(edata, checksum, 16) != 0)
- printf("CHECKSUM ERROR !!!!!!\n");
- }
-
- The header field on the encrypted data in KDC messages is:
-
- typedef struct _RC4_MDx_HEADER {
- UCHAR Checksum[16];
- UCHAR Confounder[8];
- } RC4_MDx_HEADER, *PRC4_MDx_HEADER;
-
- 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.
-
-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 must be changed to
- support these new encryption types (See [5] Section 1.2.2). The
- sealing algorithm identifier (SEAL_ALG) for an RC4 based encryption
- is:
- Byte 4..5 SEAL_ALG 0x10 0x00 - RC4
-
- The signing algorithm identifier (SGN_ALG) for MD5 HMAC is:
- Byte 2..3 SGN ALG 0x11 0x00 - HMAC
-
- The only support quality of protection is:
- #define GSS_KRB5_INTEG_C_QOP_DEFAULT 0x0
-
- In addition, when using an RC4 based encryption type, the sequence
- number is 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 [5]
- 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 framing - they are raw AP message and do not include object
- identifiers.
- #define GSS_C_DCE_STYLE 0x1000
-
-
-
-Swift Category - Informational 5
-
- Windows 2000 RC4-HMAC Kerberos E-Type June 2000
-
-
- 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 th 15 characters, trailing blank (ascii char 20) filled, with a 16
- octet of 0x0.
-
-8.2 GSSAPI Checksum Type
-
- 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 [5] Section 1.2) for
- GSS_GetMIC() and GSS_Wrap(conf_flag=FALSE).
-
- MIC (K, fRC4_EXP, seq_num, MIC_hdr, msg, msg_len,
- MIC_seq, MIC_checksum)
- {
- HMAC (K, SK, 13, K4);
- T = 15;
- memcpy (T_plus_hdr_plus_msg + 00, &T, 4);
- memcpy (T_plus_hdr_plus_msg + 04, MIC_hdr, 8);
- // 0101 1100 FFFFFFFF
- memcpy (T_plus_hdr_plus_msg + 12, msg, msg_len);
- MD5 (T_hdr_msg, 4 + 8 + msg_len, MD5_of_T_hdr_msg);
- HMAC (K4, MD5_of_T_hdr_msg, CHKSUM);
- memcpy (MIC_checksum, CHKSUM, 8); // use only first 8 bytes
-
- T = 0;
- if (fRC4_EXP){
- *((DWORD *)(L40+10)) = T;
- HMAC (K, L40, 14, K5);
- }else{
- HMAC (K, &T, 4, K5);
-

-
- }
- if (fRC4_EXP) memset(K5+7, 0xAB, 9);
- HMAC(K5, MIT_checksum, 8, K6);
- copy_seq_num_in_big_endian(seq_num, seq_plus_direction);
- //0x12345678
- copy_direction_flag (direction_flag, seq_plus_direction +
- 4); //0x12345678FFFFFFFF
- RC4(K6, seq_plus_direction, 8, MIC_seq);
- }
-
-8.3 GSSAPI Encryption Types
-
- There are two encryption types 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 [5] Section 1.2.2.3.
-
- The encryption mechanism used for GSS wrap based messages is as
- follow:
-
-
- WRAP (K, fRC4_EXP, seq_num, WRAP_hdr, msg, msg_len,
- WRAP_seq, WRAP_checksum, edata, edata_len)
- {
- HMAC (K, SK, 13, K7);
- T = 13;
- PAD = 1;
- memcpy (T_hdr_conf_msg_pad + 00, &T, 4);
- memcpy (T_hdr_conf_msg_pad + 04, WRAP_hdr, 8); // 0101 1100
- FFFFFFFF
- memcpy (T_hdr_conf_msg_pad + 12, msg, msg_len);
- memcpy (T_hdr_conf_msg_pad + 12 + msg_len, &PAD, 1);
- MD5 (T_hdr_conf_msg_pad,
- 4 + 8 + 8 + msg_len + 1,
- MD5_of_T_hdr_conf_msg_pad);
- HMAC (K7, MD5_of_T_hdr_conf_msg_pad, CHKSUM);
- memcpy (WRAP_checksum, CHKSUM, 8); // use only first 8
- bytes
-
- T = 0;
- if (fRC4_EXP){
- *((DWORD *)(L40+10)) = T;
- HMAC (K, L40, 14, K8);
- }else{
- HMAC (K, &T, 4, K8);
- }
- if (fRC4_EXP) memset(K8+7, 0xAB, 9);
- HMAC(K8, WRAP_checksum, 8, K9);
- copy_seq_num_in_big_endian(seq_num, seq_plus_direction);
- //0x12345678
-
-Swift Category - Informational 7
-
- Windows 2000 RC4-HMAC Kerberos E-Type June 2000
-
-
- copy_direction_flag (direction_flag, seq_plus_direction +
- 4); //0x12345678FFFFFFFF
- RC4(K9, seq_plus_direction, 8, WRAP_seq);
-
- for (i = 0; i < 16; i++) K10 [i] ^= 0xF0; // XOR each byte
- of key with 0xF0
- T = 0;
- if (fRC4_EXP){
- *(DWORD *)(L40+10) = T;
- HMAC(K10, L40, 14, K11);
- memset(K11+7, 0xAB, 9);
- }else{
- HMAC(K10, &T, 4, K11);
- }
- HMAC(K11, seq_num, 4, K12);
- RC4(K12, T_hdr_conf_msg_pad + 4 + 8, 8 + msg_len + 1,
- edata); /* skip T & hdr */
- edata_len = 8 + msg_len + 1; // conf + msg_len + pad
- }
-
-
- 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.
