RFC 5904 RADIUS Attributes for PKMv1 June 2010
1. Introduction
Privacy Key Management Version 1 (PKMv1) [IEEE.802.16-2004] is a public-key-based authentication and key establishment protocol typically used in fixed wireless broadband network deployments. The protocol utilizes X.509 v3 certificates [[RFC2459](./rfc2459 ""Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificate and CRL Profile"")], RSA encryption [[RFC2437](./rfc2437 ""PKCS #1: RSA Cryptography Specifications Version 2.0"")], and a variety of secret key cryptographic methods to allow an 802.16 Base Station (BS) to authenticate a Subscriber Station (SS) and perform key establishment and maintenance between an SS and BS.
This document defines a set of RADIUS Attributes that are designed to provide support for PKMv1. The target audience for this document consists of those developers implementing RADIUS support for PKMv1; therefore, familiarity with both RADIUS [[RFC2865](./rfc2865 ""Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS)"")] and the IEEE 802.16-2004 standard is assumed.
Please note that this document relies on IEEE.802.16-2004, which references RFC 2437 and RFC 2459, rather than any more recent RFCs on RSA and X.509 certificates (e.g., RFC 3447 and RFC 5280).
2. Acronyms
CA Certification Authority; a trusted party issuing and signing X.509 certificates.

140 PKM-Cryptosuite-List
141 PKM-SAID
142 PKM-SA-Descriptor
143 PKM-Auth-Key3.1. PKM-SS-Cert
Description
The PKM-SS-Cert Attribute is variable length and MAY be
transmitted in the Access-Request message. The Value field is of
type string and contains the X.509 certificate [[RFC2459](./rfc2459 ""Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificate and CRL Profile"")] binding a
public key to the identifier of the Subscriber Station.
The minimum size of an SS certificate exceeds the maximum size of
a RADIUS attribute. Therefore, the client MUST encapsulate the
certificate in the Value fields of two or more instances of the
PKM-SS-Cert Attribute, each (except possibly the last) having a
length of 255 octets. These multiple PKM-SS-Cert Attributes MUST
appear consecutively and in order within the packet. Upon
receipt, the RADIUS server MUST recover the original certificate
by concatenating the Value fields of the received PKM-SS-Cert
Attributes in order.A summary of the PKM-SS-Cert Attribute format is shown below. The fields are transmitted from left to right.

RFC 5904 RADIUS Attributes for PKMv1 June 2010
3.2. PKM-CA-Cert
Description
The PKM-CA-Cert Attribute is variable length and MAY be
transmitted in the Access-Request message. The Value field is of
type string and contains the X.509 certificate [[RFC2459](./rfc2459 ""Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificate and CRL Profile"")] used by
the CA to sign the SS certificate carried in the PKM-SS-Cert
attribute ([Section 3.1](#section-3.1)) in the same message.
The minimum size of a CA certificate exceeds the maximum size of a
RADIUS attribute. Therefore, the client MUST encapsulate the
certificate in the Value fields of two or more instances of the
PKM-CA-Cert Attribute, each (except possibly the last) having a
length of 255 octets. These multiple PKM-CA-Cert Attributes MUST
appear consecutively and in order within the packet. Upon
receipt, the RADIUS server MUST recover the original certificate
by concatenating the Value fields of the received PKM-CA-Cert
Attributes in order.A summary of the PKM-CA-Cert Attribute format is shown below. The fields are transmitted from left to right.

3.3. PKM-Config-Settings
Description
The PKM-Config-Settings Attribute is of type string [[RFC2865](./rfc2865 ""Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS)"")]. It
is 30 octets in length and consists of seven independent fields,
each of which is conceptually an unsigned integer. Each of the
fields contains a timeout value and corresponds to a Type-Length-
Value (TLV) tuple encapsulated in the IEEE 802.16 "PKM
configuration settings" attribute; for details on the contents of
each field, see Section 11.9.19 of [[IEEE.802.16-2004](#ref-IEEE.802.16-2004)]. One
instance of the PKM-Config-Settings Attribute MAY be included in
the Access-Accept message.A summary of the PKM-Config-Settings Attribute format is shown below. The fields are transmitted from left to right.

RFC 5904 RADIUS Attributes for PKMv1 June 2010
3.4. PKM-Cryptosuite-List
Description
The PKM-Cryptosuite-List Attribute is of type string [[RFC2865](./rfc2865 ""Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS)"")] and
is variable length; it corresponds roughly to the "Cryptographic-
Suite-List" 802.16 attribute (see Section 11.19.15 of
[[IEEE.802.16-2004](#ref-IEEE.802.16-2004)]), the difference being that the RADIUS
Attribute contains only the list of 3-octet cryptographic suite
identifiers, omitting the IEEE Type and Length fields.
The PKM-Cryptosuite-List Attribute MAY be present in an Access-
Request message. Any message in which the PKM-Cryptosuite-List
Attribute is present MUST also contain an instance of the Message-
Authenticator Attribute [[RFC3579](./rfc3579 ""RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) Support For Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)"")].
Implementation Note
The PKM-Cryptosuite-List Attribute is used as a building block
to create the 802.16 "Security-Capabilities" attribute
([[IEEE.802.16-2004](#ref-IEEE.802.16-2004)], Section 11.9.13); since this document only
pertains to PKM version 1, the "Version" sub-attribute in that
structure MUST be set to 0x01 when the RADIUS client constructs
it.A summary of the PKM-Cryptosuite-List Attribute format is shown below. The fields are transmitted from left to right.

correspond to those of the Value field of an IEEE 802.16
Cryptographic-Suite attribute.3.7. PKM-AUTH-Key
Description
The PKM-AUTH-Key Attribute is of type string, 135 octets in
length. It consists of 3 fields, described below, which together
specify the characteristics of a PKM authorization key. The PKM-
AUTH-Key Attribute MAY occur in an Access-Accept message. Any
packet that contains an instance of the PKM-AUTH-Key Attribute
MUST also contain an instance of the Message-Authenticator
Attribute [[RFC3579](./rfc3579 ""RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) Support For Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)"")].Zorn Informational [Page 10]

The Lifetime field is 4 octets in length and represents the
lifetime, in seconds, of the authorization key. For more
information, see Section 11.9.4 of [[IEEE.802.16-2004](#ref-IEEE.802.16-2004)].Sequence
The Sequence field is one octet in length. The contents
correspond to those of the Value field of an IEEE 802.16 Key-
Sequence-Number attribute (see [[IEEE.802.16-2004](#ref-IEEE.802.16-2004)], [Section](#section-11.9.5)
[11.9.5](#section-11.9.5)).Key
The Key field is 128 octets in length. The contents correspond to
those of the Value field of an IEEE 802.16 AUTH-Key attribute.
The Key field MUST be encrypted under the public key from the
Subscriber Station certificate ([Section 3.1](#section-3.1)) using RSA encryption
[[RFC2437](./rfc2437 ""PKCS #1: RSA Cryptography Specifications Version 2.0"")]; see Section 7.5 of [[IEEE.802.16-2004](#ref-IEEE.802.16-2004)] for further
details.
Implementation Note
It is necessary that a plaintext copy of this field be returned
in the Access-Accept message; appropriate precautions MUST be
taken to ensure the confidentiality of the key.Zorn Informational [Page 11]
RFC 5904 RADIUS Attributes for PKMv1 June 2010
3.7.1. AUTH-Key Protection
The PKM-AUTH-Key Attribute (Section 3.7) contains the AUTH-Key encrypted with the SS's public key. The BS also needs the AK, so a second copy of the AK needs to be returned in the Access-Accept message.
It is RECOMMENDED that the AK is encapsulated in an instance of the MS-MPPE-Send-Key Attribute [[RFC2548](./rfc2548 ""Microsoft Vendor-specific RADIUS Attributes"")]. However, see Section 4.3.4 of RFC 3579 [[RFC3579](./rfc3579 ""RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) Support For Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)"")] for details regarding weaknesses in the encryption scheme used.
If better means for protecting the Auth-Key are available (such as RADIUS key attributes with better security properties, or means of protecting the whole Access-Accept message), they SHOULD be used instead of (or in addition to) the MS-MPPE-Send-Key Attribute.
4. Table of Attributes
The following table provides a guide to which attributes may be found in which kinds of packets, and in what quantity.
Request Accept Reject Challenge Acct-Req # Attribute 0+ 0 0 0 0 137 PKM-SS-Cert [Note 1] 0+ 0 0 0 0 138 PKM-CA-Cert [Note 2] 0 0-1 0 0 0 139 PKM-Config-Settings 0-1 0 0 0 0 140 PKM-Cryptosuite-List 0-1 0 0 0 0 141 PKM-SAID 0 0+ 0 0 0 142 PKM-SA-Descriptor 0 0-1 0 0 0 143 PKM-Auth-Key 0 0-1 0 0 0 MS-MPPE-Send-Key [Note 3]
[Note 1] No more than one Subscriber Station Certificate may be transferred in an Access-Request packet.
[Note 2] No more than one CA Certificate may be transferred in an Access- Request packet.
[Note 3] MS-MPPE-Send-Key is one possible attribute that can be used to convey the AK to the BS; other attributes can be used instead (see Section 3.7.1).

RFC 5904 RADIUS Attributes for PKMv1 June 2010
The following table defines the meaning of the above table entries.
0 This attribute MUST NOT be present in packet 0+ Zero or more instances of this attribute MAY be present in packet 0-1 Zero or one instance of this attribute MAY be present in packet 1 Exactly one instance of this attribute MUST be present in packet
5. Diameter Considerations
Since the Attributes defined in this document are allocated from the standard RADIUS type space (see Section 7), no special handling is required by Diameter nodes.
6. Security Considerations
Section 4 of RFC 3579 [[RFC3579](./rfc3579 ""RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) Support For Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)"")] discusses vulnerabilities of the RADIUS protocol.
Section 3 of the paper "Security Enhancements for Privacy and Key Management Protocol in IEEE 802.16e-2005" [[SecEn](#ref-SecEn ""Security Enhancements for Privacy and Key Management Protocol in IEEE 802.16e- 2005"")] discusses the operation and vulnerabilities of the PKMv1 protocol.
If the Access-Request message is not subject to strong integrity protection, an attacker may be able to modify the contents of the PKM-Cryptosuite-List Attribute, weakening 802.16 security or disabling data encryption altogether.
If the Access-Accept message is not subject to strong integrity protection, an attacker may be able to modify the contents of the PKM-Auth-Key Attribute. For example, the Key field could be replaced with a key known to the attacker.
See Section 3.7.1 for security considerations of sending the authorization key to the BS.
7. IANA Considerations
IANA has assigned numbers for the following Attributes:
137 PKM-SS-Cert
138 PKM-CA-Cert
139 PKM-Config-Settings
140 PKM-Cryptosuite-List
141 PKM-SAIDZorn Informational [Page 13]
RFC 5904 RADIUS Attributes for PKMv1 June 2010
142 PKM-SA-Descriptor
143 PKM-Auth-KeyThe Attribute numbers are to be allocated from the standard RADIUS Attribute type space according to the "IETF Review" policy [RFC5226].
