Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) in the Stream Control
Transmission Protocol (SCTP) CRYPTO Chunk
draft-westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-dtls-01
Abstract
This document defines a usage of Datagram Transport Layer Security
(DTLS) 1.2 or 1.3 to protect the content of Stream Control
Transmission Protocol (SCTP) packets using the framework provided by
the SCTP CRYPTO chunk which we name DTLS in SCTP. DTLS in SCTP
provides encryption, source authentication, integrity and replay
protection for the SCTP association with mutual authentication of the
peers. The specification is also targeting very long-lived sessions
of weeks and months and supports mutual re-authentication and
rekeying with ephemeral key exchange. This is intended as an
alternative to using DTLS/SCTP (RFC 6083) and SCTP-AUTH (RFC 4895).

1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
This document describes the usage of the Datagram Transport Layer
Security (DTLS) protocol, as defined in DTLS 1.2 [RFC6347], and DTLS
1.3 [RFC9147], as protection engine in the Stream Control
Transmission Protocol (SCTP), as defined in [RFC9260] with SCTP
CRYPTO chunk [I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk]. This
specification is intended as an alternative to DTLS/SCTP [RFC6083]
and usage of SCTP-AUTH [RFC4895].
This specification provides mutual authentication of endpoints, data
confidentiality, data origin authentication, data integrity
protection, and data replay protection of SCTP packets. Ensuring
these security services to the application and its upper layer

protocol over SCTP. Thus, it allows client/server applications to
communicate in a way that is designed with communications privacy and
preventing eavesdropping and detect tampering or message forgery.
Applications using DTLS in SCTP can use all currently existing
transport features provided by SCTP and its extensions, in some cases
with some limitations, as specified in
[I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk]. DTLS in SCTP supports:
* preservation of message boundaries.
* no limitation on number of unidirectional and bidirectional
streams.
* ordered and unordered delivery of SCTP user messages.
* the partial reliability extension as defined in [RFC3758].
* multi-homing of the SCTP association per [RFC9260].
* the dynamic address reconfiguration extension as defined in
[RFC5061].
* User messages of any size.
* SCTP Packets with a protected set of chunks up to a size of 2^14
bytes.
1.2. Protocol Overview
DTLS in SCTP is a protection engine specification for the SCTP CRYPTO
chunk [I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk] that utilizes DTLS 1.2
or 1.3 for the security functions like key exchange, authentication,
encryption, integrity protection, and replay protection. The basic
functionalities and how things are related are described below.
In a SCTP association initiation where DTLS in SCTP is chosen as the
protection engine for the CRYPTO chunk the DTLS handshake is
exchanged encapsulated in plain DATA chunks with Protection Engine
PPID (see section 10.6 of [I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk])
until an initial DTLS connection has been established. If the DTLS
handshake fails, the SCTP association is aborted. When the DTLS
connection has been established PVALID chunks are exchanged to verify
that no downgrade attack between different protection engines has
occurred. To prevent manipulation, the PVALID chunks are protected
by encapsulating them in DTLS protected CRYPTO chunks.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
Assuming that the PVALID validation is successful the SCTP
association is established and the Upper Layer Protocol (ULP) can
start sending data over the SCTP association. From this point all
chunks will be protected by encapsulating them in DTLS protected
CRYPTO chunks. The SCTP chunks to be included in an SCTP packet are
the plain text application data input to DTLS. The encrypted DTLS
application data record is then encapsulated in the CRYPTO chunk and
the packet is transmitted, see Section 7.
In the receiving SCTP endpoint each incoming SCTP packet on any of
its interfaces and ports are matched to the SCTP association based on
ports and VTAG in the common header. In that association context for
the CRYPTO chunk there will exist reference to one or more DTLS
connections used to protect the data. The DTLS connection actually
used to protect this packet is identified by two DCI bits in the
CRYPTO chunk's flags. Using the identified DTLS session the content
of the CRYPTO chunk is attempted to be processed, including replay
protection, decryption, and integrity checking. And if decryption
and integrity verification was successful the produced plain text of
one or more SCTP chunks are provided for normal SCTP processing in
the identified SCTP association along with associated meta data such
as path received on, original packet size, and ECN bits.
When mutual re-authentication or rekeying with ephemeral key exchange
is needed or desired by either endpoint a new DTLS connection
handshake is performed between the SCTP endpoints. A different DTLS
Connection Index (DCI) than currently used among the CRYPTO chunk
flags are used to indicate that this is a new handshake. When the
handshake has completed the DTLS in SCTP implementation can simply
switch to use this DTLS connection to protect the plain text payload.
After a short while (no longer than 2 min) to enable any outstanding
packets to drain from the network path between the endpoints the old
DTLS connection can be terminated.
The DTLS connection is free to send any alert, handshake message, or
other non-application data to its peer at any point in time. Thus,
enabling DTLS 1.3 Key Updates for example. All non-application data
SHOULD be sent by means of SCTP DATA chunks with Protection Engine
PPID as specified in [I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk].

1.3. Properties of DTLS in SCTP
DTLS in SCTP has a number of properties that are attractive.
* Provides confidentiality, integrity protection, and source
authentication for each packet.
* Provides replay protection on SCTP packet level preventing
malicious replay attacks on SCTP, both protecting the data as well
as the SCTP functions themselves.
* Provides mutual authentication of the endpoints based on any
authentication mechanism supported by DTLS.
* Uses parallel DTLS connections to enable mutual re-authentication
and rekeying with ephemeral key exchange. Thus, enabling SCTP
association lifetimes without known limitations.
* Uses core of DTLS as it is and updates and fixes to DTLS security
properties can be implemented without further changes to this
specification.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
* Secures all SCTP packets exchanged after SCTP association has
reached the established state. Making targeted attacks against
the SCTP protocol and implementation much harder.
* DTLS in SCTP results in no limitations on user message
transmission, those properties are the same as for an unprotected
SCTP association.
* Limited overhead on a per packet basis, with 4 bytes for the
CRYPTO chunk plus the DTLS record overhead. The DTLS overhead is
dependent on the DTLS version.
* Support of SCTP packet plain text payload sizes up to 2^14 bytes.
1.3.1. Benefits Compared to DTLS/SCTP
DTLS/SCTP as defined by [I-D.ietf-tsvwg-dtls-over-sctp-bis] has
several important differences most to the benefit of DTLS in SCTP.
This section reviews these differences.
* Replay Protection in DTLS/SCTP has some limitations due to SCTP-
AUTH [RFC4895] and its interaction with the SCTP implementation
and dependencies on the actual SCTP-AUTH rekeying frequency. DTLS
in SCTP relies on DTLS mechanism for replay protection that can
prevent both duplicates from being delivered as well as preventing
packets from outside the current window to be delivered. Thus, a
stronger protection especially for non-DATA chunk are provided and
protects the SCTP stack from replayed or duplicated packets.
* Encryption in DTLS/SCTP is only applied to ULP data. For DTLS in
SCTP all chunk type after the association has reached established
state will be encrypted. This, makes protocol attacks harder as a
third-party attacker will have less insight into SCTP protocol
state. Also, protocol header information likes PPIDs will also be
encrypted, which makes targeted attacks harder but also make
management and debugging harder.
* DTLS/SCTP Rekeying is complicated and require advanced API or user
message tracking to determine when a key is no longer needed so
that it can be discarded. A DTLS/SCTP key that is prematurely
discarded can result in loss of parts of a user message and
failure of the assumptions on the transport where the sender
believes it delivered and the receiver never gets it. This
usually will result in the need to terminate the SCTP association
to restart the ULP session to avoid worse issues. DTLS in SCTP is
robust to discarding the DTLS key after having switched to a new
established DTLS connection. Any outstanding packets that have
not been decoded yet will simply be treated as lost between the
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
SCTP endpoints and SCTP's retransmission will retransmit any user
message data that requires it. Also, the algorithm for when to
discard a DTLS connection can be much simpler.
* DTLS/SCTP rekeying can put restrictions on user message sizes
unless the right APIs exist to the SCTP implementation to
determine the state of user messages. No such restriction exists
in DTLS in SCTP.
* By using the CRYPTO chunk that is acting on SCTP packet level
instead of user messages the consideration for extensions are
quite different. Only extensions that would affect the common
header or how packets are formed would interact with this
mechanism, any extension that just defines new chunks or
parameters for existing chunks is expected to just work and be
secured by the mechanism. DTLS/SCTP instead interact with
extensions that affects how user messages are handled.
* A known downside is that the defined DTLS in SCTP usage creates a
limitation on the maximum SCTP packet size that can be used of
2^14 bytes. If the DTLS implementation does not support the
maximum DTLS record size the maximum supported packet size might
be even lower. However, this value needs to be compared to the
supported MTU of IP, and are thus in reality often not an actual
limitation. Only for some special deployments or over loopback
may this limitation be visible.
There are several significant differences in regard to implementation
between the two realizations.
* DTLS in SCTP do requires the CRYPTO chunk to be implemented in the
SCTP stack implementation, and not as an adaptation layer above
the SCTP stack which DTLS/SCTP instead requires. This has some
extra challenges for operating system level implementations.
However, as some updates anyway will be required to support the
corrected SCTP-AUTH the implementation burden is likely similar in
this regard.
* DTLS in SCTP can use a DTLS implementation that does not rely on
features from outside of the core protocol, where DTLS/SCTP
required a number of features as listed below:
- DTLS Connection Index to identify which DTLS connection that
should process the DTLS record.
- Support for DTLS records of the maximum size of 16 KB.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
- Optional to support negotiation of maximum DTLS record size
unless not supporting 16 KB records when it is required. Even
if implementing the negotiation, interoperability failure may
occur. DTLS in SCTP will only require supporting DTLS record
sizes that matches the largest IP packet size that endpoint
support or the SCTP implementation.
- Implementation is required to support turning off the DTLS
replay protection.
- Implementation is required to not use DTLS Key-update
functionality. Where DTLS in SCTP is agnostic to its usage,
and it provides a useful tool to ensure that the key lifetime
never is an issue.
The conclusion of these implementation details is that where DTLS in
SCTP can use existing DTLS implementations, including OpenSSL's DTLS
1.2 implementation. It is not known if any DTLS stack exist that
fully support the requirements in DTLS/SCTP. It is expected that a
DTLS/SCTP implementation will have to also extend some DTLS
implementation.

Figure 2: CRYPTO Chunk Structure
DCI: 2 bits (unsigned integer)
DTLS Connection Index is the lower two bits of an DTLS Connection
Index counter. This is a counter implemented in DTLS in SCTP that
is used to identify which DTLS connection instance that is capable
of processing any received packet. This counter is recommended to
be 64-bit to guarantee no lifetime issues for the SCTP
Association.
Flags: 6 bits
Chunk Flag bits not currently used by DTLS in SCTP. They MUST be
set to zero (0) and MUST be ignored on reception. They MAY be
used in future updated specifications for DTLS in SCTP.
Payload: variable length
One or more DTLS records. In cases more than one DTLS record is
included all DTLS records except the last MUST include a length
field. Note that this matches what is specified in DTLS 1.3
[RFC9147] and DTLS 1.2 will always include the length field in
each record.
4. Crypto Chunk Integration
There are a set of requirements stated in
[I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk] that need to be addressed in
this specification, this section deals with those requirements and
how they are met in the current specification.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
4.1. State Machine
The CRYPTO Chunk allows the protection engine to have inband or out-
of-band key establishment. DTLS in SCTP uses inband key
establishment, thus the DTLS handshake establishes shared keys with
the remote peer. As soon as the SCTP State Machine enters PROTECTION
PENDING state, DTLS is responsible for progressing to the PROTECTED
state when DTLS handshake has completed. The DCI counter is
initialized to the value zero that is used for the initial DTLS
handshake.
4.1.1. PROTECTION PENDING state
When entering PROTECTION PENDING state, DTLS will start the handshake
according to Section 6.1.
DTLS protection engine being initialized for a new SCTP association
will set the DCI counter = 0, which implies a DCI field value of 0,
for the initial DTLS connection. The DTLS handshake messages are
transmitted from this endpoint to the peer using DATA chunks with the
PPID value set to Protection Engine Protocol Identifier
[I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk].
When a successful handshake has been completed, DTLS protection
engine will inform CRYPTO chunk Handler that will move SCTP State
Machine into PROTECTED state.
4.1.2. PROTECTED state
In the PROTECTED state the currently active DTLS connection is used
for protection operation of the payload of SCTP chunks in each packet
per below specification. When necessary to meet requirements on
periodic re-authentication of the peer and establishment of new
forward secrecy keys a new parallel DTSL connection is established as
further specified in Section 8.
4.1.3. SHUTDOWN states
When the SCTP association leaves the ESTABLISHED state per [RFC9260]
to be shutdown the DTLS connection is kept and continues to protect
the SCTP packet payloads through the shutdown process.
When the association reaches the CLOSED state as part of the SCTP
association closing process all DTLS connections that existed are
terminated without further transmissions, i.e. DTLS close_notify is
not transmitted.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
4.2. DTLS Connection Handling
It's up to DTLS protection engine to manage the DTLS connections and
their related DCI.
4.2.1. Add a New DTLS Connection
Either peer can add a new DTLS connection to the SCTP association at
any time, but no more than 2 DTLS connections can exist at the same
time. The new DCI value shall be the last active DCI increased by
one modulo 4, this makes the attempt to create a new DTLS connection
to use the same, known, value of DCI from both peers. A new
handshake will be initiated by DTLS using the new DCI. Details of
the handshake are described in Section 6.1.
As either endpoint can initiate a DTLS handshake at the same time,
either endpoint may receive a DTLS ClientHello message when it has
sent its own ClientHello. In this case the ClientHello from the
endpoint that had the DTLS Client role in the establishment of the
previous DTLS connection shall be continued to be processed and the
other dropped.
When the handshake has been completed successfully, the new DTLS
connection will be possible to use for traffic, if the handshake is
not completed successfully, the new DCI value will not be considered
used and a next attempt will reuse that DCI.
4.2.2. Remove an existing DTLS Connection
Either peers can initialize the removal of a DTLS connection from the
current SCTP association when it is no longer the active one, i.e.
when a newer DTLS connection is in use. It is RECOMMENDED to not
initiate removal until at least one SCTP packet protected by the new
DTLS connection has been received, and any transmitted packets
protected using the new DTLS connection has been acknowledge,
alternatively one Maximum Segment Lifetime (120 seconds) has passed
since the last SCTP packet protected by the old DTLS connection was
transmitted.
The closing of the DTLS connection when the SCTP association is in
PROTECTED and ESTABLISHED state is done by having the DTLS connection
send a DTLS close_notify. Note the difference in process for DTLS
1.2 and DTLS 1.3. Where sending the DTLS 1.2 close_notify will
trigger an immediate close also in the peer. Which is why it is
recommended to ensure that one have received packets from the peer
using the new DTLS connection.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
When DTLS closure for a DTLS connection is completed, the related DCI
is released in the DTLS protection engine.
4.3. Error Cases
As DTLS has its own error reporting mechanism by exchanging DTLS
alert messages no new DTLS related cause codes are defined to use the
error handling defined in [I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk].
When DTLS encounters an error it may report that issue using DTLS
alert message to its peer by putting the created DTLS record in a
DATA chunk with Protection Engine PPID and sending it in an SCTP
packet. This is independent of what to do in relation to the SCTP
association. Depending on the severance of the error different paths
can be the result:
Non-critical: the DTLS connection can continue to protect the SCTP
association. In this case the issue may be worth reporting to the
peer using a DTLS alert message, but otherwise continue without
further action.
Critical, but not immediately fatal: If the DTLS connection has a
critical issue, but can still protect packets then a the endpoint
SHOULD attempt to establish a new DTLS connection. If that
succeeds then the SCTP association switches over to the new DTLS
connection and can terminate the old one including reporting the
error. In case the establishment fails, then this critical issue
MUST be reported to the SCTP association so that it can send an
ABORT chunk with the Error in Protection cause code. This will
terminate the SCTP association immediately, provide ULP with
notification of the failure and speeding up any higher layer
management of the failure.
Critical, and immediately fatal: If the DTLS connection fails so
that no further data can be protected (i.e. either sent or
received) with maintained security then it is not possible to
establish a new DTLS connection and the protection engine will
have to indicate this to the SCTP implementation so it can perform
a one sides SCTP association termination. This will lead to an
eventual SCTP association timeout in the peer.
5. DTLS Considerations
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 14]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
5.1. Version of DTLS
This document defines the usage of either DTLS 1.3 [RFC9147], or DTLS
1.2 [RFC6347]. Earlier versions of DTLS MUST NOT be used (see
[RFC8996]). DTLS 1.3 is RECOMMENDED for security and performance
reasons. It is expected that DTLS in SCTP as described in this
document will work with future versions of DTLS.
Only one version of DTLS MUST be used during the lifetime of an SCTP
Association, meaning that the procedure for replacing the DTLS
version in use requires the existing SCTP Association to be
terminated and a new SCTP Association with the desired DTLS version
to be instantiated.
5.2. Configuration of DTLS
5.2.1. General
The DTLS Connection ID SHALL NOT be included in the DTLS records as
it is not needed, the CRYPTO chunk indicates which DTLS connection
the DTLS records are intended for using the DCI bits. Avoiding
overhead and addition implementation requirements on DTLS
implementation.
The DTLS record length field is normally not needed as the CRYPTO
Chunk provides a length field unless multiple records are put in same
chunk payload. If multiple DTLS records are included in one CRYPTO
chunk payload the DTLS record length field MUST be present in all but
the last.
DTLS record replay detection MUST be used.
Sequence number size can be adapted based on how quickly it wraps.
Many of the TLS registries have a "Recommended" column. Parameters
not marked as "Y" are NOT RECOMMENDED to support in DTLS in SCTP.
Non-AEAD cipher suites or cipher suites without confidentiality MUST
NOT be supported. Cipher suites and parameters that do not provide
ephemeral key exchange MUST NOT be supported.
5.2.2. Authentication and Policy Decisions
DTLS in SCTP MUST be mutually authenticated. Authentication is the
process of establishing the identity of a user or system and
verifying that the identity is valid. DTLS only provides proof of
possession of a key. DTLS in SCTP MUST perform identity
authentication. It is RECOMMENDED that DTLS in SCTP is used with
certificate-based authentication. When certificates are used the
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 15]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
application using DTLS in SCTP is responsible for certificate
policies, certificate chain validation, and identity authentication
(HTTPS does for example match the hostname with a subjectAltName of
type dNSName). The application using DTLS in SCTP defines what the
identity is and how it is encoded and the client and server MUST use
the same identity format. Guidance on server certificate validation
can be found in [I-D.ietf-uta-rfc6125bis]. DTLS in SCTP enables
periodic transfer of mutual revocation information (OSCP stapling)
every time a new parallel connection is set up. All security
decisions MUST be based on the peer's authenticated identity, not on
its transport layer identity.
It is possible to authenticate DTLS endpoints based on IP addresses
in certificates. SCTP associations can use multiple IP addresses per
SCTP endpoint. Therefore, it is possible that DTLS records will be
sent from a different source IP address or to a different destination
IP address than that originally authenticated. This is not a problem
provided that no security decisions are made based on the source or
destination IP addresses.
5.2.3. New Connections
Implementations MUST set up new DTLS connections before any of the
certificates expire. It is RECOMMENDED that all negotiated and
exchanged parameters are the same except for the timestamps in the
certificates. Clients and servers MUST NOT accept a change of
identity during the setup of a new connections, but MAY accept
negotiation of stronger algorithms and security parameters, which
might be motivated by new attacks.
Allowing new connections can enable denial-of-service attacks. The
endpoints MUST limit the number of simultaneous connections to two.
To force attackers to do dynamic key exfiltration and limits the
amount of compromised data due to key compromise implementations MUST
have policies for how often to set up new connections with ephemeral
key exchange such as ECDHE. Implementations SHOULD set up new
connections frequently to force attackers to dynamic key extraction.
E.g., at least every hour and every 100 GB of data which is a common
policy for IPsec [ANSSI-DAT-NT-003]. See [I-D.ietf-tls-rfc8446bis]
for a more detailed discussion on key compromise and key exfiltration
in (D)TLS.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
For many DTLS in SCTP deployments the SCTP association is expected to
have a very long lifetime of months or even years. For associations
with such long lifetimes there is a need to frequently re-
authenticate both client and server by setting up new connections.
TLS Certificate lifetimes significantly shorter than a year are
common which is shorter than many expected SCTP associations
protected by DTLS in SCTP.
5.2.4. Padding of DTLS Records
Both SCTP and DTLS contains mechanisms to padd SCTP payloads, and
DTLS records respectively. If padding of SCTP packets are desired to
hide actual message sizes it RECOMMEDED to use the SCTP Padding
Chunck [RFC4820] to generate a consisted SCTP payload size. Support
of this chunk is only required on the sender side. However, if the
PAD chunk is not supported DTLS padding MAY be used.
It needs to be noted that independent if SCTP padding or DTLS padding
is used the padding is not taken into account by the SCTP congestion
control. Extensive use of padding has potential for worsen
congestion situations as the SCTP association will consume more
bandwidth than its derived share by the congestion control.
The use of SCTP PAD chunk is recommened as it at least can enable
future extension or SCTP implementation that account also for the
padding. Use of DTLS padding hides this packet expansion from SCTP.
5.2.5. DTLS 1.2
The updates in Section 13 of [RFC9147] SHALL be followed for DTLS
1.2. DTLS 1.2 MUST be configured to disable options known to provide
insufficient security. HTTP/2 [RFC9113] gives good minimum
requirements based on the attacks that where publicly known in 2022.
The AEAD limits in DTLS 1.3 are equally valid for DTLS 1.2 and SHOULD
be followed for DTLS in SCTP, but are not mandated by the DTLS 1.2
specification.
Use of renegotiation is NOT RECOMMENDED as it is disables in many
implementations and does not provide any benefits in DTLS in SCTP
compared to setting up a new connection. Resumption MAY be used but
does not provide ephemeral key exchange as in DTLS 1.3
5.2.6. DTLS 1.3
DTLS 1.3 is preferred over DTLS 1.2 being a newer protocol that
addresses known vulnerabilities and only defines strong algorithms
without known major weaknesses at the time of publication.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 17]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
DTLS 1.3 requires rekeying before algorithm specific AEAD limits have
been reached. Implementations MAY setup a new DTLS connection
instead of using key update.
In DTLS 1.3 any number of tickets can be issued in a connection and
the tickets can be used for resumption as long as they are valid,
which is up to seven days. The nodes in a resumed connection have
the same roles (client or server) as in the connection where the
ticket was issued. Resumption can have significant latency benefits
for quickly restarting a broken DTLS/SCTP association. If tickets
and resumption are used it is enough to issue a single ticket per
connection.
The PSK key exchange mode psk_ke MUST NOT be used as it does not
provide ephemeral key exchange.
6. Establishing DTLS in SCTP
This section specifies how DTLS in SCTP is established after
Protected Association Parameter with DTLS 1.2 or DTLS 1.3 as
protection engine has been negotiated in the Init and Init-ACK
exchange per [I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk].
6.1. DTLS Handshake
6.1.1. Handshake of initial DTLS connection
As soon the SCTP Association has entered the SCTP state PROTECTION
PENDING as defined by [I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk] the
DTLS handshake procedure is initiated by the endpoint that has
initiated the SCTP association.
The DTLS endpoint will if necessary fragment the handshake into
multiple records each meeting the known or set MTU limit of the path
between SCTP endpoints. Each DTLS handshake message fragment is sent
as a SCTP user message on the same stream where each message is
configured for reliable and in-order delivery with the Protection
Engine PPID. The DTLS instance SHOULD NOT use DTLS retransmission to
repair any packet losses of handshake message fragment. Note: If the
DTLS implementation support configuring a MTU larger than the actual
IP MTU it could be used as SCTP provides reliability and
fragmentation.
If the DTLS handshake is successful in establishing a security
context to protect further communication and the peer identity is
accepted then the SCTP association is informed that it can move to
the PROTECTED state.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 18]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
If the DTLS handshake failed the SCTP association SHALL be aborted
and an ERROR chunk with the Error in Protection error cause, with the
appropriate extra error causes is generated, the right selection of
"Error During Protection Handshake" or "Timeout During Protection
Handshake or Validation".
6.1.2. Handshake of further DTLS connections
When the SCTP Association has entered the ESTABLISHED state, each of
the endpoint can initiate an DTLS handshake.
The DTLS endpoint will if necessary fragment the handshake into
multiple records each meeting the known or set MTU limit of the path
between SCTP endpoints. Each DTLS handshake message fragment is sent
as a SCTP user message on the same stream where each message is
configured for reliable and in-order delivery with the Protection
Engine PPID. The DTLS instance SHOULD NOT use DTLS retransmission to
repair any packet losses of handshake message fragment. Note: If the
DTLS implementation support configuring a MTU larger than the actual
IP MTU it could be used as SCTP provides reliability and
fragmentation.
If the DTLS handshake failed the SCTP association SHALL generate an
ERROR chunk with the Error in Protection error cause, with extra
error causes "Error During Protection Handshake".
6.2. Validation Against Downgrade Attacks
When the SCTP association has entered the PROTECTED state after the
DTLS handshake has completed, the protection against downgrade in the
negotiation of protection engine is performed per
[I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk]. The PVALID chunk will sent
as a DTLS protected CRYPTO chunk payload per Section 7, thus
protecting the plain text chunk.
If the validation completes successful the SCTP association will
enter ESTABLISHED state. ULP data exchanges can now happen and will
be protected together will all other SCTP packets.
7. Processing a CRYPTO Chunk
7.1. Sending
CRYPTO chunk sending happens when SCTP requires transferring control
or DATA chunk(s) to the remote SCTP Endpoint. For a proper handling,
DCI shall be set to an established instance of DTLS connection.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 19]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
SCTP Chunk handler will create the payload of a legacy SCTP packet
according to [RFC9260] and any used SCTP extensions. Such payload
will assume a PMTU that is equal to the value computed by SCTP minus
the size of the CRYPTO Chunk header and DTLS record and
authentication tag overhead. It's up to SCTP Chunk Handler to
implement all the SCTP rules for bundling and retransmission
mechanism. Once ready, the payload will be transferred to DTLS as a
single array of bytes.
Once DTLS has created the related DTLS record (or DTLS records), it
will transfer the encrypted data as an array of bytes to CRYPTO chunk
handler for encapsulation into a CRYPTO chunk and being forwarded to
the SCTP header handler for transmission.
The interface between SCTP and DTLS related to SCTP Payload will need
to carefully evaluate the PMTU as seen by SCTP and DTLS so that each
payload generated by SCTP Chunk Handler will not cause the finished
SCTP packet to exceed the known path MTU unless it is a Path MTUD
discovery packet.
7.2. Receiving
When receiving an SCTP packet containing a CRYPTO Chunk it will
contain an payload of protected SCTP control or data chunks. Since
there's at most one CRYPTO Chunk per SCTP packet, the payload of that
chunk will be transferred to the proper DTLS instance according to
DCI for decryption and processing.
As discussed in CRYPTO Chunk specification when receiving packets
certain meta data will be needed to associate with the protected
CRYPTO chunk payload for SCTP to correctly process it. This includes
packet size, source IP and arrival interface, i.e. path information,
and ECN bits.
When DTLS processes a DTLS record with decryption and integrity
verification and that contains application data, it will output the
data as an array of bytes and transfer it back to the CRYPTO Handler
that delivers it for SCTP chunk handling.
SCTP Chunk handler will threat the array as the payload of an SCTP
packet, thus it will extract all the chunks and handle them according
to [RFC9260] and any supported extension.

Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
8. Parallel DTLS Rekeying
Rekeying in this specification is implemented by replacing the DTLS
connection getting old with a new one. This feature exploits the
capability of parallel DTLS connections and the possibility to add
and remove DTLS connections during the lifetime of the SCTP
Association.
8.1. Criteria for Rekeying
The criteria for rekeying may vary depending on the ULP requirement
on security properties, chosen cipher suits etc. Therefore it is
assumed that the implementation will be configurable by the ULP to
meet its demand.
Likely criteria to impact the need for rekeying through the usage of
new DTLS connection are:
* Maximum time since last authentication of the peer
* Amount of data transferred since last forward secrecy preserving
rekeying
* The cipher suit's maximum key usage being reached. Although for
DTLS 1.3 usage of the Key Update mechanism can generate new keys
without forward secrecy properties.
8.2. Procedure for Rekeying
This specification allows up to 2 DTLS connection to be active at the
same time for the current SCTP Association. The following state
machine applies.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 21]

Figure 3: State Diagram for Rekeying
Trigger for rekeying can either be a local AGING event, triggered by
the DTLS connection meeting the criteria for rekeying, or a REMOTE
AGING event, triggered by receiving a DTLS record on the DCI that
would be used for new DTLS connection. In such case a new DTLS
connection shall be added according to Section 4.2.1 with a new DCI.
As soon as the new DTLS connection completes handshaking, the traffic
is moved from the old one, then the procedure for closing the old
DTLS connection is initiated, see Section 4.2.2.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 22]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
8.3. Race Condition in Rekeying
A race condition may happen when both peer experience local AGING
event at the same time and start creation of a new DTLS connection.
Since the criteria for calculating a new DCI is known and specified
in Section 4.2.1, the peers will use the same DCI for identifying the
new DTLS connection. And the race condition is solved as specified
in Section 4.2.1.
9. PMTU Discovery Considerations
Due to the DTLS record limitation for application data SCTP MUST use
2^14 as input to determine absolute maximum MTU when running PMTUD
and using DTLS in SCTP as protection engine.
The DTLS protection engine MUST provide its maximum overhead for DTLS
records and authentication tags when protecting the SCTP payload.
This so that SCTP PMTUD can take this into consideration and ensure
that produced packets that are not PMTUD probes does not become
oversized. This may require updating during the SCTP associations
lifetime due to future handshakes affecting cipher suit in use, or
changes to record layer configurations.
Note that this implies that DTLS protection engine is expected to
accept application data payloads of potentially larger sizes than
what it configured to use for messages the DTLS implementation
generates itself for signaling.
10. Security Considerations
10.1. General
The security considerations given in [RFC9147], [RFC6347], and
[RFC9260] also apply to this document. BCP 195 [RFC9325] [RFC8996]
provides recommendations and requirements for improving the security
of deployed services that use DTLS. BCP 195 MUST be followed which
implies that DTLS 1.0 SHALL NOT be supported and are therefore not
defined.
10.2. Privacy Considerations
Although DTLS in SCTP provides privacy for the actual user message as
well as almost all chunks, some fields are not confidentiality
protected. In addition to the DTLS record header, the SCTP common
header and the CRYPTO chunk header are not confidentiality protected.
An attacker can correlate DTLS connections over the same SCTP
association using the SCTP common header.
Westerlund, et al. Expires 30 December 2023 [Page 23]
Internet-Draft DTLS in SCTP June 2023
To provide identity protection it is RECOMMENDED that DTLS in SCTP is
used with certificate-based authentication in DTLS 1.3 [RFC9147] and
to not reuse tickets. DTLS 1.2 and DTLS 1.3 with external PSK
authentication does not provide identity protection.
By mandating ephemeral key exchange and cipher suites with
confidentiality DTLS in SCTP effectively mitigate many forms of
passive pervasive monitoring. By recommending implementations to
frequently set up new DTLS connections with (EC)DHE force attackers
to do dynamic key exfiltration and limits the amount of compromised
data due to key compromise.
11. IANA Consideration
This document adds the two new entries listed in Table 1 into the
"CRYPTO Chunk Protection Engine Identifiers" registry in the Stream
Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) Parameters grouping.
11.1. Protection Engine Registration
IANA is requested to register two Protection Engine Identifiers in
the "CRYPTO Chunk Protection Engine Identifiers" registry defined by
[I-D.westerlund-tsvwg-sctp-crypto-chunk]. The entries to be
registered are provided in Table 2.
