If I remember correctly from "Spycatcher", the Soviets misused the one time pad allowing the Verona breaks, by using it twice, not by making slightly weak rannos. Of course, in this business, anything you read/hear could be a cover story. - Carl +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Carl M.

On June 27, Sen. Grassley introduced extensive criminal amendments to the federal racketeering act. S. 974, the "Anti-Electronic Racketeering Act of 1995," would amend U.S. Code sections 18 USC 1961 (criminal RICO statute), 18 USC 1030A (new section on computer crime), 18 USC 2515, 2516 (wiretapping), and 42 USC 2000aa (Privacy Protection Act). This proposed legislation is Very Bad. It would make all encryption software posted to computer networks that are accessible to foreigners illegal *regardless of whether the NSA has classified the software as a munition!!!* Here's the language: "Sec. 1030A. Racketeering-related crimes involving computers "(a) It shall be unlawful-- . . . "(2) to distribute computer software that encodes or encrypts electronic or digital communications to computer networks that the person distributing knows, or reasonably should know, is accessible to foreign nationals and foreign governments, regardless of whether such software has been designated nonexportable." I'm up to my ears in analyses that need to be written, but I'll send around something more complete when I'm able to pull it together. Shari ------- End of Forwarded Message

Moderators provide a great service, and it is finially being recognized as such in a monetary way. I think that this is a great thing! I agree that moderated groups are useful at keeping the SNR high, and are a great choice for those who can't or haven't time to set up their own filters. However, they can't solve the problems that the Internet is popularly supposed to have (e.g. no provisions for eliminating parental responsibility). Even supposing that US ISPs are *prohibited by law* from carrying unmoderated Usenet groups, how does this address all of the other services (current and future) that can be carried by the Internet? Sorry, the horse is out of the stable, and the only 99% control option open to the government now is cutting the phone lines at the border. If an individual (e.g. a parent) wants to limit net access for certain services to emasculated resources, perhaps Microsoft Restrict (TM) and Prodigy can provide a desired service. Otherwise, the solution to the problem has to lie closer to home. -- Roger Williams -- Coelacanth Engineering -- Middleborough, Mass #!/usr/local/bin/perl -s-- -export-a-crypto-system-sig -RSA-in-3-lines-PERL ($k,$n)=(a)ARGV;$m=unpack(H.$w,$m."\0"x$w),$_=`echo "16do$w 2+4Oi0$d*-^1[d2% Sa2/d0<X+d*La1=z\U$n%0]SX$k"[$m*]\EszlXx++p|dc`,s/^.|\W//g,print pack('H*' ,$_)while read(STDIN,$m,($w=2*$d-1+length($n||die"$0 [-d] k n\n")&~1)/2)

SSL RC4 challenge
by Hal 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Here is a challenge to try breaking SSL using the default exportable encryption mode, 40-bit RC4. It consists of a record of a submission of form data which was sent to Netscape's electronic shop order form in "secure" mode. However the data I entered in the form is not my real name and address. The challenge is to break the encryption and recover the name and address info I entered in the form and sent securely to Netscape. (A URL for info on SSL is http://home.netscape.com/newsref/std/SSL.html.) Below is the data which was sent back and forth, along with some annotations to help interpret it. The connection was made to order.netscape.com at port 443, the https port. The following is the first message from client to server, the CLIENT-HELLO message. It is not encrypted. 0x80 0x1c 0x01 0x00 0x02 0x00 0x03 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x10 0x02 0x00 0x80 0xaf 0x84 0xa7 0x79 0xf8 0x13 0x69 0x20 0x25 0x9b 0x53 0xa0 0x60 0xae 0x75 0x51 This is interpreted as follows: 0x80 0x1c Length field: 28 bytes follow in the packet. 0x01 MSG_CLIENT_HELLO 0x00 0x02 CLIENT-VERSION-MSB CLIENT-VERSION-LSB 0x00 0x03 CIPHER-SPECS-LENGTH-MSB CIPHER-SPECS-LENGTH-LSB 0x00 0x00 SESSION-ID-LENGTH-MSB SESSION-ID-LENGTH-LSB 0x00 0x10 CHALLENGE-LENGTH-MSB CHALLENGE-LENGTH-LSB 0x02 0x00 0x80 CIPHER-SPECS-DATA <none> SESSION-ID-DATA 0xaf...0x51 CHALLENGE-DATA [16 bytes] The only cipher spec sent (and hence supported) by the browser is 0x02 0x00 0x80, which is SSL_CK_RC4_128_EXPORT40_WITH_MD5. No session id is sent, hence new key information will be calculated for this session. And 16 bytes of challenge data are sent in the clear; this will be useful as known plaintext returned encrypted by the server later. The following data is then returned by the server, in the SERVER-HELLO message: 0x82 0x2b 0x04 0x00 0x01 0x00 0x02 0x02 0x0d 0x00 0x03 0x00 0x10 0x30 0x82 0x02 0x09 0x30 0x82 0x01 0x72 0x02 0x02 0x00 0x88 0x30 0x0d 0x06 0x09 0x2a 0x86 0x48 0x86 0xf7 0x0d 0x01 0x01 0x04 0x05 0x00 0x30 0x47 0x31 0x0b 0x30 0x09 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x06 0x13 0x02 0x55 0x53 0x31 0x10 0x30 0x0e 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x0b 0x13 0x07 0x54 0x65 0x73 0x74 0x20 0x43 0x41 0x31 0x26 0x30 0x24 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x0a 0x13 0x1d 0x4e 0x65 0x74 0x73 0x63 0x61 0x70 0x65 0x20 0x43 0x6f 0x6d 0x6d 0x75 0x6e 0x69 0x63 0x61 0x74 0x69 0x6f 0x6e 0x73 0x20 0x43 0x6f 0x72 0x70 0x2e 0x30 0x1e 0x17 0x0d 0x39 0x35 0x30 0x32 0x32 0x34 0x30 0x31 0x30 0x39 0x32 0x34 0x5a 0x17 0x0d 0x39 0x37 0x30 0x32 0x32 0x33 0x30 0x31 0x30 0x39 0x32 0x34 0x5a 0x30 0x81 0x97 0x31 0x0b 0x30 0x09 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x06 0x13 0x02 0x55 0x53 0x31 0x13 0x30 0x11 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x08 0x13 0x0a 0x43 0x61 0x6c 0x69 0x66 0x6f 0x72 0x6e 0x69 0x61 0x31 0x16 0x30 0x14 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x07 0x13 0x0d 0x4d 0x6f 0x75 0x6e 0x74 0x61 0x69 0x6e 0x20 0x56 0x69 0x65 0x77 0x31 0x2c 0x30 0x2a 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x0a 0x13 0x23 0x4e 0x65 0x74 0x73 0x63 0x61 0x70 0x65 0x20 0x43 0x6f 0x6d 0x6d 0x75 0x6e 0x69 0x63 0x61 0x74 0x69 0x6f 0x6e 0x73 0x20 0x43 0x6f 0x72 0x70 0x6f 0x72 0x61 0x74 0x69 0x6f 0x6e 0x31 0x16 0x30 0x14 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x0b 0x13 0x0d 0x4f 0x6e 0x6c 0x69 0x6e 0x65 0x20 0x4f 0x72 0x64 0x65 0x72 0x73 0x31 0x15 0x30 0x13 0x06 0x03 0x55 0x04 0x03 0x13 0x0c 0x41 0x72 0x69 0x20 0x4c 0x75 0x6f 0x74 0x6f 0x6e 0x65 0x6e 0x30 0x5a 0x30 0x0d 0x06 0x09 0x2a 0x86 0x48 0x86 0xf7 0x0d 0x01 0x01 0x01 0x05 0x00 0x03 0x49 0x00 0x30 0x46 0x02 0x41 0x00 0xa5 0xa7 0x7b 0x42 0xb1 0x79 0x2d 0x0b 0x35 0x08 0xb4 0x0d 0x74 0x1d 0x46 0x6a 0x29 0x07 0x47 0x08 0xdc 0x3a 0x76 0x36 0xbd 0x7f 0xb3 0xd4 0xa9 0x85 0x9d 0x4b 0x65 0x74 0xc1 0x00 0x56 0xec 0x5a 0x31 0x72 0x23 0x04 0xc1 0xcf 0x78 0x63 0x21 0x77 0x69 0xd9 0xf0 0x61 0xc8 0x73 0xf7 0xdc 0x4c 0xde 0xd2 0x22 0x99 0x79 0xdf 0x02 0x01 0x03 0x30 0x0d 0x06 0x09 0x2a 0x86 0x48 0x86 0xf7 0x0d 0x01 0x01 0x04 0x05 0x00 0x03 0x81 0x81 0x00 0x7e 0x4a 0x28 0x7d 0xba 0xfa 0x41 0x5a 0x19 0x1c 0x9a 0xea 0x6d 0x3b 0x07 0x1c 0x97 0xe0 0xf5 0xf8 0x4c 0xd5 0x92 0x0c 0x1c 0x30 0x49 0x06 0x72 0x42 0x9a 0x3f 0xfc 0x3b 0x11 0x17 0x78 0x7e 0x6c 0x27 0x8a 0x12 0x19 0xf3 0x08 0x18 0x6e 0xe0 0xc3 0xbe 0xe7 0x37 0xbd 0x4e 0xae 0xe1 0x9e 0x4a 0x3b 0xa9 0xbf 0xc0 0x92 0x59 0x2c 0xdb 0x37 0x34 0xc8 0xa0 0xc0 0xba 0xb8 0x6f 0xd3 0xd6 0xc7 0x48 0x88 0xbc 0xd6 0xff 0x7a 0xf7 0x76 0x70 0x2c 0x19 0x07 0xc8 0x7c 0x80 0x29 0x18 0x58 0xfc 0xd1 0x12 0x86 0x99 0x4e 0x32 0xee 0xb9 0xf5 0x11 0x70 0xd5 0x1b 0xf7 0x85 0x5b 0x4a 0x0e 0xd6 0xe6 0x6c 0x52 0xf5 0x8a 0x2c 0x97 0x3e 0x63 0x85 0x57 0x43 0xbc 0x02 0x00 0x80 0xbf 0xeb 0x90 0xf8 0x2c 0x0c 0xe1 0xea 0x18 0xac 0x11 0x4c 0x83 0x14 0x21 0xb6 This is interpreted as follows: 0x82 0x2b Packet length, 555 bytes follow. 0x04 MSG-SERVER-HELLO 0x00 SESSION-ID-HIT 0x01 CERTIFICATE-TYPE 0x00 0x02 SERVER-VERSION-MSB SERVER-VERSION-LSB 0x02 0x0d CERTIFICATE-LENGTH-MSB CERTIFICATE-LENGTH-LSB 0x00 0x03 CIPHER-SPECS-LENGTH-MSB CIPHER-SPECS-LENGTH-LSB 0x00 0x10 CONNECTION-ID-LENGTH-MSB CONNECTION-ID-LENGTH-LSB 0x30...0xbc CERTIFICATE-DATA [525 bytes] 0x02 0x00 0x80 CIPHER-SPECS-DATA 0xbf...0xb6 CONNECTION-ID-DATA [16 bytes] Most of the packet is the certificate. SESSION-ID-HIT is 0 since no session ID was sent by the client. After the 525 (0x020d) bytes of certificate comes the 3 byte code for 40 bit RC4, then the 16 byte connection ID. The main importance of the connection ID data here is that it helps to calculate the session keys as described below. The next message, from the client to the server, is the CLIENT-MASTER-KEY sent mostly in the clear: 0x80 0x55 0x02 0x02 0x00 0x80 0x00 0x0b 0x00 0x40 0x00 0x00 0x0e 0x89 0x94 0xb8 0xbf 0x0e 0xb9 0x2e 0x50 0x44 0x07 0x8c 0x52 0xeb 0xef 0x44 0xc1 0x01 0x4b 0xc1 0x02 0xd2 0x2e 0x37 0x1f 0x1d 0x54 0xc2 0x83 0x45 0x79 0x6b 0xc8 0xe3 0x85 0x17 0xb8 0xd4 0x84 0xc6 0x9f 0xb1 0x6a 0x03 0x2e 0x97 0xae 0x82 0x75 0x10 0xf0 0x7b 0x5f 0x25 0x7b 0x88 0x75 0xc6 0x7a 0x33 0x5f 0xd6 0x96 0x99 0x94 0xd0 0x7a 0x78 0xae 0x50 0x32 0x1a 0xbb 0x66 0x50 It is interpreted as follows: 0x80 0x55 Packet length, 85 bytes follow. 0x02 MSG-CLIENT-MASTER-KEY 0x02 0x00 0x80 CIPHER-KIND 0x00 0x0b CLEAR-KEY-LENGTH-MSB CLEAR-KEY-LENGTH-LSB 0x00 0x40 ENCRYPTED-KEY-LENGTH-MSB ENCRYPTED-KEY-LENGTH-LSB 0x00 0x00 KEY-ARG-LENGTH-MSB KEY-ARG-LENGTH-LSB 0x0e...0x07 CLEAR-KEY-DATA [11 bytes] 0x8c...0x50 ENCRYPTED-KEY-DATA [64 bytes] <none> KEY-ARG-DATA The 11 most significant bytes (88 bits) of "master key" information are sent in the clear as the CLEAR-KEY-DATA. The remaining 40 low-order bits of the 128-bit master key are RSA encrypted using the server's public key, expanding in the process to 64 bytes, and sent as the ENCRYPTED-KEY-DATA. No KEY-ARG-DATA is sent since RC4 doesn't need an initialization vector. Now that these packets have been exchanged, from this point on, all packets are sent encrypted. For each such packet, after the packet length bytes there is a 16-byte Message Authentication Code (MAC). Then comes the RC4 encrypted data itself. Two different session keys are used, both generated from the master key, the 16-byte challenge data, and the 16-byte connection ID data. The CLIENT-READ-KEY, used for data sent from server to client, is calculated as: MD5 (MASTER-KEY, "0", CHALLENGE, CONNECTION-ID). "0" is one byte of 0x30, ascii 0. The CLIENT-WRITE-KEY, used for data sent from client to server, is calculated as: MD5 (MASTER-KEY, "1", CHALLENGE, CONNECTION-ID). "1" is one byte of 0x31, ascii 1. MD5 produces 128 bits of output which are used directly as the key input to the RC4 algorithm. The next message, from server to client, is SERVER-VERIFY. It is sent encrypted: 0x80 0x21 0x37 0x68 0x3a 0x8c 0x7d 0x33 0xb2 0x2f 0xb9 0x66 0xeb 0xd2 0x63 0xcd 0xa7 0xed 0x71 0xa0 0xb6 0x2f 0xb6 0xe2 0x31 0xa4 0x2a 0x81 0xd3 0x25 0x61 0x58 0xbc 0xf0 0xf4 This is interpreted as follows: 0x80 0x21 Packet length, 33 bytes follow 0x37...0xed MAC [16 bytes] 0x71 RC4 encrypted MSG-SERVER-VERIFY (0x05) 0xa0...0xf4 RC4 encrypted CHALLENGE-DATA from CLIENT-HELLO message [16 bytes] The first RC4 encrypted byte is MSG-SERVER-VERIFY (which has a value of 0x05). This is followed by 16 bytes of challenge data from the first client message, encrypted. These 17 bytes represent known plaintext which can be used to easily check any guessed RC4 CLIENT-READ-KEY. Let me make this a little more clear. The first RC4 encryption with the CLIENT-READ-KEY, immediately after key setup, is as follows: Plaintext (MSG-SERVER-VERIFY plus CHALLENGE-DATA): 0x05 0xaf 0x84 0xa7 0x79 0xf8 0x13 0x69 0x20 0x25 0x9b 0x53 0xa0 0x60 0xae 0x75 0x51 Ciphertext (from SERVER-VERIFY packet): 0x71 0xa0 0xb6 0x2f 0xb6 0xe2 0x31 0xa4 0x2a 0x81 0xd3 0x25 0x61 0x58 0xbc 0xf0 0xf4 The next message in the protocol is CLIENT-FINISHED, sent encrypted from client to server: 0x80 0x21 0xed 0x59 0x0a 0x2a 0x80 0x50 0x42 0xec 0xcd 0xed 0x6c 0x96 0x0a 0xab 0x5c 0x0e 0xed 0x55 0xc3 0x21 0x6e 0x34 0x26 0x5b 0x46 0x41 0x35 0x51 0xb7 0xaa 0xec 0x57 0x9f This is interpreted as follows: 0x80 0x21 Packet length, 33 bytes follow 0xed...0x0e MAC [16 bytes] 0xed RC4 encrypted MSG-CLIENT-FINISHED (0x03) 0x55...0x9f RC4 encrypted CONNECTION-ID from SERVER-HELLO [16 bytes] This is the first message sent encrypted with the CLIENT-WRITE-KEY and could also be used as known plaintext to check a guessed key. The next message is SERVER-FINISHED, sent encrypted from server to client: 0x80 0x21 0x79 0x84 0xc6 0xb6 0xde 0xf4 0x4c 0xd2 0x52 0x56 0xdc 0x58 0x23 0xa0 0xfa 0x4d 0x06 0x7d 0x4c 0x12 0x32 0x32 0xea 0xaa 0x5a 0xb6 0xa7 0xb8 0x1a 0x66 0xeb 0x65 0x56 This is interpreted as follows: 0x80 0x21 Packet length, 33 bytes follow 0x79...0x4d MAC [16 bytes] 0x06 RC4 encrypted MSG-SERVER-FINISHED (0x06) 0x7d...0x56 RC4 encrypted SESSION-ID-DATA [16 bytes] The SESSION-ID-DATA has not been previously sent in the clear. It would be used to cache the key info for a future session. >From here on out, the handshaking is done. Every message sent will be encrypted and packetized. The first two bytes are packet length, then 16 bytes of MAC, then the data. First data message from client to server. Presumably it is an http "GET" request, with form information embedded in the URL. This is the main one to try decrypting (starting with 0x6b as the first encrypted byte). 0x82 0xf8 0x07 0x97 0xef 0x99 0x66 0x45 0x48 0x22 0xe4 0xdc 0x31 0xe4 0xf9 0x0b 0xb9 0x98 0x6b 0x99 0x2a 0x09

ends the communication. To try to attack this, the most effective approach would be to calculate CLIENT-READ-KEY by trying all possible values for the 40 least significant bits of the MASTER-KEY, and feeding that into the MD5 formula. Then use the known plaintext in the SERVER-VERIFY message to check the result. Once the proper 40 bit value is found, CLIENT-WRITE-KEY can easily be calculated and the data messages decrypted.

UNWANTED KEYSPACE

I'm in Oakland. There's a great pub (30 taps) right around the corner from my house. Or do you have a place in mind in Walnut Creek for the hoisting? Regards, Anthony "We are what we repeatedly do.

RC4
by Donald M. Kitchen 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

I was trying to throw a few already wasted CPU cycles to the RC4 bit, but had some problems getting the cypher and plain files. (I can't "save next link", only "save current" which sometimes doesn't work well.) So anyway, I decide to run a 24 bit test run on what I've got, using the "extra allocated" keyspace. It says got it at c70014639. Since I know I'm not lucky enough to pick the 5 seconds worth of CPU time that would work, I think someone better send me (by email thanks, lets not clutter the list) the uue of the cypher and plain. I ran the dos version, BTW, but I'm going to compile under Linux. When we decide _which_ key we're going to crack, I could finagle basically full cpu time on about 10 hp9000's for 6 hours a day. Would that help? ;) Don
