Introduction Message authentication provides data integrity and data origin authentication with respect to the original message source. A Message Authentication Code (MAC) is a key-dependent one way hash function. One popular way to construct a MAC algorithm is to use a block cipher in conjunction with the Cipher-Block-Chaining (CBC) mode of operation. The classic CBC-MAC algorithm, while secure for messages of a pre-selected fixed length [CBC-MAC-2], has been shown to be insecure across messages of varying lengths such as the type found in typical IP datagrams [CBC-MAC-2, section 5]. In fact, it is trivial to produce forgeries for a second message given the MAC of a prior message. [HANDBOOK, section 9.62, p. 354] This memo specifies the use of AES [AES] in CBC mode [MODES] with a set of extensions [XCBC-MAC-1] to overcome this limitation. This new algorithm is named AES-XCBC-MAC-96. Using the AES block cipher, with its increased block size (128 bits) and increased key length (128 bits), provides the new algorithm with the ability to withstand continuing advances in crypto-analytic techniques and computational capability. AES-XCBC-MAC-96 is used as an authentication mechanism within the context of the IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and the Authentication Header (AH) protocols. For further information on ESP, refer to [ESP] and [ROADMAP]. For further information on AH, refer to [AH] and [ROADMAP]. The goal of AES-XCBC-MAC-96 is to ensure that the datagram is authentic and cannot be modified in transit. Data integrity and data origin authentication as provided by AES-XCBC-MAC-96 are dependent upon the scope of the distribution of the secret key. If the key is known only by the source and destination, this algorithm will provide both data origin authentication and data integrity for datagrams sent between the two parties. In addition, only a party with the identical key can verify the hash. 2. Specification of Requirements The keywords "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" that appear in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, RFC 2119 [RFC-2119]. Frankel & Herbert Standards Track [Page 2] RFC 3566 AES-XCBC-MAC-96 Algorithm September 2003 3. Basic CBC-MAC with Obligatory 10* Padding CBC-MAC uses a block cipher for encryption; the block cipher transforms b bits of plaintext to b bits of ciphertext. The basic CBC-MAC [CBC-MAC-1, CBC-MAC-2] with Obligatory 10* Padding over a b-bit block cipher is calculated as follows for a message M: (1) Append a single 1 bit to M. Then append the minimum number of 0 bits to M such that the length of M is a multiple of b. [NOTE: This is 1 of several padding schemes that can be used for CBC-MAC. Several others are described in [MODES].] (2) Break M into n blocks, M[1] ... M[n], where the blocksize of blocks M[1] ... M[n] is b bits (3) Define E[0] = 0x00000000000000000000000000000000 (4) For each block M[i], where i = 1 ... n: XOR M[i] with E[i-1], then encrypt the result with Key K, yielding E[i]. (5) E[n] is the b-bit authenticator. Basic CBC-MAC with obligatory 10* padding has been shown to be secure for messages up to (but not including) a pre-selected fixed length, in which the length is a multiple of the blocksize. This algorithm is not suitable for IPsec for the following reasons: + Any IPsec authenticator must be able to handle messages of arbitrary length. However, the basic CBC-MAC cannot securely handle messages that exceed the pre-selected fixed length. + For messages shorter than the pre-selected fixed length, padding the message to the pre-selected fixed length may necessitate additional encryption operations, adding an unacceptable computational penalty. 4. AES-XCBC-MAC-96 [AES] describes the underlying AES algorithm, while [CBC-MAC-1] and [XCBC-MAC-1] describe the AES-XCBC-MAC algorithm. The AES-XCBC-MAC-96 algorithm is a variant of the basic CBC-MAC with obligatory 10* padding; however, AES-XCBC-MAC-96 is secure for messages of arbitrary length. The AES-XCBC-MAC-96 calculations require numerous encryption operations; this encryption MUST be accomplished using AES with a 128-bit key. Given a 128-bit secret key K, AES-XCBC-MAC-96 is calculated as follows for a message M that Frankel & Herbert Standards Track [Page 3] RFC 3566 AES-XCBC-MAC-96 Algorithm September 2003 consists of n blocks, M[1] ... M[n], in which the blocksize of blocks M[1] ... M[n-1] is 128 bits and the blocksize of block M[n] is between 1 and 128 bits: (1) Derive 3 128-bit keys (K1, K2 and K3) from the 128-bit secret key K, as follows: K1 = 0x01010101010101010101010101010101 encrypted with Key K K2 = 0x02020202020202020202020202020202 encrypted with Key K K3 = 0x03030303030303030303030303030303 encrypted with Key K (2) Define E[0] = 0x00000000000000000000000000000000 (3) For each block M[i], where i = 1 ... n-1: XOR M[i] with E[i-1], then encrypt the result with Key K1, yielding E[i]. (4) For block M[n]: a) If the blocksize of M[n] is 128 bits: XOR M[n] with E[n-1] and Key K2, then encrypt the result with Key K1, yielding E[n]. b) If the blocksize of M[n] is less than 128 bits: i) Pad M[n] with a single "1" bit, followed by the number of "0" bits (possibly none) required to increase M[n]'s blocksize to 128 bits. ii) XOR M[n] with E[n-1] and Key K3, then encrypt the result with Key K1, yielding E[n]. (5) The authenticator value is the leftmost 96 bits of the 128-bit E[n]. NOTE1: If M is the empty string, pad and encrypt as in (4)(b) to create M[1] and E[1]. This will never be the case for ESP or AH, but is included for completeness sake. NOTE2: [CBC-MAC-1] defines K1 as follows: K1 = Constant1A encrypted with Key K | Constant1B encrypted with Key K. However, the second encryption operation is only needed for AES-XCBC-MAC with keys greater than 128 bits; thus, it is not included in the definition of AES-XCBC-MAC-96. Frankel & Herbert Standards Track [Page 4] RFC 3566 AES-XCBC-MAC-96 Algorithm September 2003 AES-XCBC-MAC-96 verification is performed as follows: Upon receipt of the AES-XCBC-MAC-96 authenticator, the entire 128-bit value is computed and the first 96 bits are compared to the value stored in the authenticator field. 4.1. Keying Material AES-XCBC-MAC-96 is a secret key algorithm. For use with either ESP or AH a fixed key length of 128-bits MUST be supported. Key lengths other than 128-bits MUST NOT be supported (i.e., only 128-bit keys are to be used by AES-XCBC-MAC-96). AES-XCBC-MAC-96 actually requires 384 bits of keying material (128 bits for the AES keysize + 2 times the blocksize). This keying material can either be provided through the key generation mechanism or it can be generated from a single 128-bit key. The latter approach has been selected for AES-XCBC-MAC-96, since it is analogous to other authenticators used within IPsec. The reason AES-XCBC-MAC-96 uses 3 keys is so the length of the input stream does not need to be known in advance. This may be useful for systems that do one-pass assembly of large packets. A strong pseudo-random function MUST be used to generate the required 128-bit key. This key, along with the 3 derived keys (K1, K2 and K3), should be used for no purposes other than those specified in the algorithm. In particular, they should not be used as keys in another cryptographic setting. Such abuses will invalidate the security of the authentication algorithm. At the time of this writing there are no specified weak keys for use with AES-XCBC-MAC-96. This does not mean to imply that weak keys do not exist. If, at some point, a set of weak keys for AES-XCBC-MAC-96 are identified, the use of these weak keys MUST be rejected followed by a request for replacement keys or a newly negotiated Security Association. [ARCH] describes the general mechanism for obtaining keying material when multiple keys are required for a single SA (e.g., when an ESP SA requires a key for confidentiality and a key for authentication). In order to provide data origin authentication, the key distribution mechanism must ensure that unique keys are allocated and that they are distributed only to the parties participating in the communication. Frankel & Herbert Standards Track [Page 5] RFC 3566 AES-XCBC-MAC-96 Algorithm September 2003 Current attacks do not necessitate a specific recommended frequency for key changes. However, periodic key refreshment is a fundamental security practice that helps against potential weaknesses of the function and the keys, reduces the information available to a cryptanalyst, and limits the damage resulting from a compromised key. 4.2. Padding AES-XCBC-MAC-96 operates on 128-bit blocks of data. Padding requirements are specified in [CBC-MAC-1] and are part of the XCBC algorithm. If you build AES-XCBC-MAC-96 according to [CBC-MAC-1] you do not need to add any additional padding as far as AES-XCBC-MAC-96 is concerned. With regard to "implicit packet padding" as defined in [AH], no implicit packet padding is required. 4.3. Truncation AES-XCBC-MAC produces a 128-bit authenticator value. AES-XCBC-MAC-96 is derived by truncating this 128-bit value as described in [HMAC] and verified in [XCBC-MAC-2]. For use with either ESP or AH, a truncated value using the first 96 bits MUST be supported. Upon sending, the truncated value is stored within the authenticator field. Upon receipt, the entire 128-bit value is computed and the first 96 bits are compared to the value stored in the authenticator field. No other authenticator value lengths are supported by AES-XCBC-MAC-96. The length of 96 bits was selected because it is the default authenticator length as specified in [AH] and meets the security requirements described in [XCBC-MAC-2]. 4.4. Interaction with the ESP Cipher Mechanism As of this writing, there are no known issues which preclude the use of AES-XCBC-MAC-96 with any specific cipher algorithm. 4.5. Performance For any CBC MAC variant, the major computational effort is expended in computing the underlying block cipher. This algorithm uses a minimum number of AES invocations, one for each block of the message or fraction thereof, resulting in performance equivalent to classic CBC-MAC. The key expansion requires 3 additional AES encryption operations, but these can be performed once in advance for each secret key.

Security Considerations The security provided by AES-XCBC-MAC-96 is based upon the strength of AES. At the time of this writing there are no practical cryptographic attacks against AES or AES-XCBC-MAC-96. As is true with any cryptographic algorithm, part of its strength lies in the correctness of the algorithm implementation, the security of the key management mechanism and its implementation, the strength of the associated secret key, and upon the correctness of the implementation in all of the participating systems. This document contains test vectors to assist in verifying the correctness of AES-XCBC-MAC-96 code. 6. IANA Considerations IANA has assigned AH Transform Identifier 9 to AH_AES-XCBC-MAC. IANA has assigned AH/ESP Authentication Algorithm Value 9 to AES-XCBC-MAC. 7.
