Username/Password Authentication for SOCKS V5
Status of this Memo
This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state
and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
1. Introduction
The protocol specification for SOCKS Version 5 specifies a
generalized framework for the use of arbitrary authentication
protocols in the initial socks connection setup. This document
describes one of those protocols, as it fits into the SOCKS Version 5
authentication "subnegotiation".
Note:
Unless otherwise noted, the decimal numbers appearing in packet-
format diagrams represent the length of the corresponding field, in
octets. Where a given octet must take on a specific value, the
syntax X'hh' is used to denote the value of the single octet in that
field. When the word 'Variable' is used, it indicates that the
corresponding field has a variable length defined either by an
associated (one or two octet) length field, or by a data type field.
2. Initial negotiation
Once the SOCKS V5 server has started, and the client has selected the
Username/Password Authentication protocol, the Username/Password
subnegotiation begins. This begins with the client producing a
Username/Password request:
+----+------+----------+------+----------+
|VER | ULEN | UNAME | PLEN | PASSWD |
+----+------+----------+------+----------+
| 1 | 1 | 1 to 255 | 1 | 1 to 255 |
+----+------+----------+------+----------+

RFC 1929 Username Authentication for SOCKS V5 March 1996
The VER field contains the current version of the subnegotiation,
which is X'01'. The ULEN field contains the length of the UNAME field
that follows. The UNAME field contains the username as known to the
source operating system. The PLEN field contains the length of the
PASSWD field that follows. The PASSWD field contains the password
association with the given UNAME.
The server verifies the supplied UNAME and PASSWD, and sends the
following response:
+----+--------+
|VER | STATUS |
+----+--------+
| 1 | 1 |
+----+--------+
A STATUS field of X'00' indicates success. If the server returns a
`failure' (STATUS value other than X'00') status, it MUST close the
connection.
3. Security Considerations
This document describes a subnegotiation that provides authentication
services to the SOCKS protocol. Since the request carries the
password in cleartext, this subnegotiation is not recommended for
environments where "sniffing" is possible and practical.
