My day job's been demanding too much of my time lately, but I'm finally
getting back to storm WG activity after a few months of too many other
things to do.  Sorry for the hiatus, and here's the status info for
the storm WG's five drafts as I understand things:

iSCSI Consolidated: Completed IESG evaluation, with a number of issues
that need to be resolved.  At least two security issues will be sent to
this list soon, as they need attention from the working group.

iSCSI Features Update (SAM): Completed IETF Last Call.  Needs a revised
version in order to go to the IESG.  I believe that the draft editor
understands what needs to be done; with luck that'll go to IESG Evaluation
this month.

iSCSI MIB: Sent back to MIB Doctors for a re-review of changes.  We're
waiting on them.

RDMAP Extensions: This one's about to expire w/o changes again due to
delays in working on other drafts.  There won't be time for me to do a
detailed technical review and get the new version submitted before the
current version expires.  OTOH, there are some minor issues with the
text that specifies the new IANA registry in section 10.1 - I suggest
that the authors update that text based on the text in the final version
of the RDDP registries draft:

http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-storm-rddp-registries-02.txt

As part of this:
- The registry should be called "RDMAP Message Atomic Operation Subcodes"
	and change from "Code" to "Subcode" elsewhere in the draft.  This
	avoids confusion with the main RDMAP Opcodes.
- Add a sentence to say that an experimental RDMAP opcode has already been
	allocated, and hence there is no need for an experimental atomic
	operation subcode.

While some of the issues with the Consolidated draft require WG attention,
I don't think a meeting will be needed to deal with them, so I don't plan
to ask for meeting time in Orlando in March.

Thanks,
--David

<WG Chair hat OFF>

This email is sent as the shepherd for the iSCSI consolidated draft.

Three issues have arisen around the iSCSI consolidated draft's
IPsec provisions.  In rough order from simpler to more complex,
they are:

a) Need to specify required key lengths
b) Scope of update to RFC 3723 (IP Storage Security)
c) Encryption Algorithm requirements

I don't think the first two are controversial, but the third one
may be.

-- a) Required key lengths

There are a bunch of requirements (MUST or SHOULD) for AES algorithm
implementation that don't specify a key length.

Proposal: The requirements apply to 128 bit keys.  Longer key lengths
(192 bits, 256 bits) are MAY requirements and hence don't need to be
stated.

-- b) Scope of IPsec update to RFC 3723 (IP Storage Security)

RFC 3723's IPsec profile was used by a number of protocols beyond iSCSI,
including FCIP, iFCP and the RDDP (iWarp) protocols.  The effects of
the update to that profile aren't obvious.

Proposal: List all the RFCs that pick up this update in the consolidated
iSCSI draft's "Updates" header and add some text to the Security
Considerations section to explain this.

-- c) Encryption Algorithm requirements

Here's what's currently in the consolidated iSCSI draft:

     - 3DES in CBC mode MUST be implemented [RFC2451].
     - AES in Counter mode SHOULD be implemented [RFC3686].
     - Implementations that support IKEv2 [RFC5996] SHOULD also
       implement AES GCM [RFC4106]

Aside from adding the 128 bit key size requirement, there are a
couple of other concerns:

(1) The MUST for 3DES-CBC has become questionable due to 3DES's
64 bit block size, i.e., the core cipher encrypts or decrypts 64 bits
at a time.

Things start to go awry cryptographically as one approaches the
birthday bound of 32GB (GigaBytes) of data encrypted under the
same key.  Here are a couple of links:

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipsec/current/msg07997.html
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipsec/current/msg08031.html

How far away to stay from that bound is a judgment call, but 32GB
or some fraction thereof is not a lot of data for iSCSI to move.

One could deal with this via rekeying, but the result will be
rather frequent rekeying if one decides to stay at least an order
of magnitude away on a multi-gigabit/sec link.

In contrast, AES has a 128 bit blocksize, and so its birthday
bound is astronomical (2^69 bytes if I have the math right).

AES CBC is the most common mandatory-to-implement mode for
interoperability.

(2) AES CTR was originally selected for its hardware friendliness
(e.g., it pipelines well), even though there was no hardware
friendly integrity MAC algorithm to go with it at the time.  AES GCM
is now the strongly preferred choice, as it provides encryption
and a MAC.


... Now comes the fun ...

Proposal (w/o RFC citations, all AES requirements are for 128 bit keys):

     - 3DES in CBC mode MAY be implemented (previously MUST)
     - AES in CBC mode MUST be implemented (previously implicitly MAY)
     - AES in Counter mode MAY be implemented (previously SHOULD)
     - Implementations that support IKEv2 SHOULD also
       implement AES GCM (new requirement)

This would be accompanied by text that explains the birthday bound
effect of 3DES's 64 bit blocksize, and suggests that implementations
desiring hardware efficiency look to AES GCM rather than AES Counter.

The intent is that these requirements are readily met by widely
available IPsec implementations.

------------------

Please comment.  I'll probably assume that a) key size and b) RFC 3723
IPsec update scope are ok in the absence of objection, but I definitely
want to see some discussion of c) encryption algorithm requirements.

Thanks,
--David

<WG Chair hat OFF>

This email is sent as the shepherd for the iSCSI consolidated draft.

Security review has turned up a couple of issues in iSCSI in-band
authentication.  I want to summarize them for discussion before the
effort is invested in writing detailed text.

I believe that good implementers will get these right, but some
security text appears to be needed.  This is not supposed to affect
existing implementations, so please speak up if something appears
potentially problematic.

(1) iSCSI name association with authenticated identity.  The iSCSI name
is for the initiator or target (e.g., iqn.*); the authenticated identity
is the identity used in the inband authentication protocol (e.g., CHAP
name).

This concern is about how the identity used for authentication aligns with
the iSCSI name for the initiator or target.  Abstractly, the concern is
that someone has to check that Bob is the authenticated identity for an iSC=
SI
initiator that's accessing Bob's storage, otherwise Alice can claim to be
Bob's initiator (iSCSI name) authenticate as herself (Alice as authenticati=
on
identity) and then freely access Bob's storage, which would be bad.

The draft doesn't say much about this, in large part because iSCSI names
are not exactly friendly to existing authentication infrastructure, and
the original design intent was to allow flexibility in identities used with
authentication infrastructure.

Proposal: The draft needs to say something - that something might be to say
that implementations SHOULD be managing authentication so that
impersonation is not possible across iSCSI Names.  The preferred approach
(SHOULD) would be to manage authentication material as triples:
	- iSCSI Name
	- Authentication identity for that name
	- Authentication credentials for that identity
In this case, the name-identity relationship SHOULD be checked in addition
to the authentication of the identity.  This check is simple if the identit=
y
and name are the same, or the identity is algorithmically derived from the
name.

I can think of ways to bind credentials directly to an iSCSI Name, where
the identity is a bystander, although this is a particularly bad idea for
CHAP, as it will have rather unfortunate results when used with an external
server (e.g., RADIUS) that gets the authentication identity, but not the
iSCSI name, making this a "SHOULD NOT" requirement with a warning about
external authentication servers that don't see the iSCSI Names.

(2) Authentication consistency for multi-connection sessions.

When an iSCSI session has multiple connections, either concurrently, or
sequentially (e.g., TCP connection fails, new connection created to recover
the session), it's important that the same initiator be involved in all
the connections, *and* that the initiator authenticate as itself every
time.  There are several pieces to this:
- Authentication SHOULD be consistently used across a session. It's
	not a good idea to mix authenticated and unauthenticated connections
	in the same session.  Mixing authentication mechanisms is probably
	ok, if someone wants to do that, so it may not need to be mentioned.
- The authentication of the iSCSI Name SHOULD be consistent across a sessio=
n,
	preferably by using the same authentication identity.  In the end,
	it's the iSCSI Name that matters, and the same authentication
	identity (see "triples" above) is the simplest way to get there.


Thanks,
--David

WRT 1 - I always thought that the iSCSI name is/will-become the =
authenticated identity and the "tiny bit-strings" used in some =
communities will become a thing of the past - or at best will serve as =
temporary identifiers (something like short addresses).  However if we =
want to accommodate them  we should suggest a way of deriving the =
authenticated identity from the name - e.g., a hash - that binds them =
for good. The target may/should verify that the authenticated identity =
used in the protocol is  correct.  Obviously that assumes that =
authentication identities are small string that can be "allocated" =
arbitrarily - i.e. have no purposeful structure.

   This document specifies extensions to the IETF Remote Direct Memory
   Access Protocol (RDMAP [RFC5040]). RDMAP provides read and write
   services directly to applications and enables data to be transferred
   directly into Upper Layer Protocol (ULP) Buffers without
   intermediate data copies. The extensions specified in this document
   provide the following capabilities and/or improvements: Atomic
   Operations and Immediate Data.

The IESG has received a request from the STORage Maintenance WG (storm)
to consider the following document:
- 'Definitions of Managed Objects for Internet Small Computer System
   Interface (iSCSI)'
  <draft-ietf-storm-iscsimib-03.txt> as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-01-28. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   This document defines a portion of the Management Information Base
   (MIB) for use with network management protocols. In particular, it
   defines objects for managing a client using the Internet Small
   Computer System Interface (iSCSI) protocol (SCSI over TCP).

   This document obsoletes RFC4544.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts director=
ies.
 This draft is a work item of the STORage Maintenance Working Group of the =
IETF.

	Title           : iSCSI Protocol (Consolidated)
	Author(s)       : Mallikarjun Chadalapaka
                          Julian Satran

	Pages           : 342
	Date            : 2013-01-13

Abstract:
  This document describes a transport protocol for SCSI that works
  on top of TCP. The iSCSI protocol aims to be fully compliant with
  the standardized SCSI Architecture Model (SAM-2). RFC 3720
  defined the original iSCSI protocol. RFC 3721 discusses iSCSI
  Naming examples and discovery techniques. Subsequently, RFC 3980
  added an additional naming format to iSCSI protocol. RFC 4850
  followed up by adding a new public extension key to iSCSI. RFC
  5048 offered a number of clarifications and a few improvements and
  corrections to the original iSCSI protocol.


  This document obsoletes RFCs 3720, 3980, 4850 and 5048 by
  consolidating them into a single document and making additional
  updates to the consolidated specification. This document also
  updates RFC 3721 and RFC 3723. The text in this document thus
  supersedes the text in all the noted RFCs wherever there is a
  difference in semantics.

  Note: This version of the draft does not yet incorporate planned
  resolutions to some Last Call comments regarding Kerberos and
  IPsec-related security considerations.

All:

The changes in this version of the draft are the following, almost all to a=
ddress IESG Last Call comments:

* Dropped the "MUST NOT" requirement on punctuation/diacritical characters =
in iSCSI Names (avoiding these is still a "should avoid" and highly recomme=
nded, we simply dropped the "MUST NOT" because it is not enforceable per se=
)
* Cleaned up some redundant text regarding PDU lay-outs etc.
* Added a formal definition of "Response Fence" pointing to pre-existing no=
rmative requirements
* Added a handful of forward references to tie the intro/requirement/exampl=
e pieces of the same concept together
* Done some Unicode-related terminology clean-up
* Added additional security considerations guidance related to CHAP (large =
randomly generated CHAP secrets), including a forward-looking statement tha=
t iSCSI will eventually switch to a stronger authentication mechanism, with=
 some examples cited
* Added some SCSI-level access controls considerations text=20
* Added new acronyms/definitions in a few places
* Made a handful of editorial rewrites for clarity in a few places

The two known items still pending for a -09 version are:

* Kerberos security considerations text for iSCSI authentication (work in p=
rogress)
* Resolution to a few IPSec-related topics (see David's email to the list o=
n January 1, 2013, awaiting WG feedback)

The pdf version of the draft includes change bars for easy comparison.

Let the authors know if you have follow-up questions.

>   This document describes a transport protocol for SCSI that works
>   on top of TCP. The iSCSI protocol aims to be fully compliant with
>   the standardized SCSI Architecture Model (SAM-2). RFC 3720
>   defined the original iSCSI protocol. RFC 3721 discusses iSCSI
>   Naming examples and discovery techniques. Subsequently, RFC 3980
>   added an additional naming format to iSCSI protocol. RFC 4850
>   followed up by adding a new public extension key to iSCSI. RFC
>   5048 offered a number of clarifications and a few improvements and
>   corrections to the original iSCSI protocol.

>   This document obsoletes RFCs 3720, 3980, 4850 and 5048 by

 This draft is a work item of the STORage Maintenance Working Group of the =
IETF.

	Title           : iSCSI Extensions for RDMA Specification
	Author(s)       : Michael Ko
                          Alexander Nezhinsky
	Filename        : draft-ietf-storm-iser-13.txt

Abstract:
   iSCSI Extensions for Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) provides the
   RDMA data transfer capability to iSCSI by layering iSCSI on top of
   an RDMA-Capable Protocol.  An RDMA-Capable Protocol provides RDMA
   Read and Write services, which enable data to be transferred
   directly into SCSI I/O Buffers without intermediate data copies.
   This document describes the extensions to the iSCSI protocol to
   support RDMA services as provided by an RDMA-Capable Protocol.

   This document obsoletes RFC 5046.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

This version addreses the conerns raised by Stephen Kent in his secdir
review of the draft.  For the Security Considerations section, the text on
applicability of the IPsec 2401-series and 4301-series RFCs will be added
in the next version of this draft pending the resolution of the
consolidated iSCSI draft to update RFC 3723 and everything that uses it to
a mix of 2401-series and 4301-series IPsec RFCs.

Quick update on these drafts + the iSER draft

iSCSI Consolidated: New -08 version has appeared to resolve most of the
comments.  There are still some security (and probably other) issues that'l=
l
require a -09 version, including the IPsec profile update

iSCSI Features Update (SAM): New version expected by first week of Feb.
That'll need to be checked against the then-current version of the iSCSI
consolidated draft before going into IESG Evaluation.

iSCSI MIB: Now in IETF Last Call through Jan 28.

RDMAP Extensions: Revised version submitted.

iSER: The IPsec profile update to RFC 3723 came up in this draft as well, a=
nd
that update will have to be addressed in the iSCSI Consolidated draft befor=
e
the iSER draft can go to IESG Evaluation.

The current intent is to have the IPsec profile update to RFC 3723 affect a=
ll
RFCs that use it, including the RDDP (iWARP) RFCs.

I will be on vacation with no email (email is among the things that I *real=
ly*
need a vacation from) for the next couple of weeks, so expect further progr=
ess
towards the end of the first week of Feb.

Thanks,
--David

> - Add a sentence to say that an experimental RDMAP opcode has already bee=

,
