    <abstract>
      <t>This document defines a new pre-authentication mechanism for
      the Kerberos protocol.  The mechanism uses a
      password-authenticated key exchange (PAKE) to prevent brute-force
      password attacks, and it may optionally incorporate a second factor.

    <section><name>Introduction</name>
      <t>The Kerberos protocol <xref target="RFC4120"/> commonly uses
      password-derived long-term keys to secure the initial authentication
      exchange between a Kerberos client and a Key Distribution Center (KDC).
      As noted in Section 10 of <xref target="RFC4120"/>, target="RFC4120" section="10" sectionFormat="of"/>, an attacker can
      perform an offline dictionary attack against the password, password; this is performed either by
      initiating an authentication exchange to a principal for which the KDC
      does not require pre-authentication, pre-authentication or after eavesdropping on a
      legitimate authentication exchange that uses encrypted timestamp
      pre-authentication (Section 5.2.7.2 of <xref target="RFC4120"/>).</t> (<xref target="RFC4120" section="5.2.7.2" sectionFormat="of"/>).</t>

      <t>This document defines a pre-authentication mechanism that
      authenticates using long-term keys but is resistant to offline dictionary
      attacks. The mechanism additionally enables the use of second factor second-factor
      authentication without the need for a separately-established separately established secure
      channel, by leveraging the trust relationship established by the shared
      long-term key.</t>

      <section><name>Properties of PAKE</name>
        <t>Password authenticated
        <t>Password-authenticated key exchange (PAKE) algorithms <xref
        target="RFC8125"/> provide several properties which that defend against
        offline dictionary attacks and make them ideal for use in a Kerberos
        pre-authentication mechanism.
        </t>
        <ol>
          <li>Each side of the exchange contributes entropy.</li>
          <li>Passive attackers cannot determine the shared key.</li>
          <li>Active attackers cannot perform a machine-in-the-middle
          attack.</li>
        </ol>
        <t>These properties of PAKE allow us to establish high-entropy
        encryption keys resistant to offline brute force attack, brute-force attacks, even when
        the passwords used are weak (low-entropy).</t> (low entropy).</t>
      </section>
      <section><name>PAKE Algorithm Selection</name>
        <t>The SPAKE algorithm (defined in <xref target="SPAKE"/>) works by
        encrypting the public keys of a Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchange with a
        shared secret. SPAKE is selected for this pre-authentication mechanism
        for the following properties:
        </t>
        <ol>
          <li>Because SPAKE's
          <li>SPAKE's encryption method ensures that the result is a
          member of the underlying group, so it can be used with elliptic curve
          cryptography, which is believed to provide equivalent security levels
          to finite-field DH key exchange at much smaller key sizes.</li>
          <li>It can compute the shared key after just one message from each
          party, minimizing the need for additional round trips and state.</li>
          <li>It requires a small number of group operations, and operations; therefore, it can therefore
          be implemented simply and efficiently.</li>
        </ol>
      </section>
      <section><name>PAKE and Two-Factor Authentication</name>

        <t>Using PAKE in a pre-authentication mechanism also has another
        benefit when used as a component of two-factor authentication (2FA).
        2FA methods often require the secure transfer of plaintext material to
        the KDC for verification. This includes one-time passwords,
        challenge/response signatures signatures, and biometric data. Encrypting this data
        using the long-term secret results in packets that are vulnerable to
        offline brute-force attack attacks on the password, using either an
        authentication tag or statistical properties of the 2FA credentials to
        determine whether a password guess is correct.</t>

        <t>In the One-Time "One-Time Password pre-authentication (OTP) Pre-Authentication"
        <xref target="RFC6560"/>
        specification, target="RFC6560"/>, this problem is mitigated by
        using flexible authentication secure tunneling (FAST) (Section 5.4 of <xref
        target="RFC6113"/>), (<xref
        target="RFC6113" section="5.4" sectionFormat="of"/>), which uses a
        secondary trust relationship to create a secure encryption channel
        within which pre-authentication data can be sent. However, the
        requirement for a secondary trust relationship has proven to be
        cumbersome to deploy and often introduces third parties into the trust
        chain (such as certification authorities). These requirements make it
        difficult to enable FAST without manual configuration of client
        hosts. In contrast, SPAKE pre-authentication,
        in contrast, can create a secure
        encryption channel implicitly, using the key exchange to negotiate a
        high-entropy encryption key. This key can then be used to securely
        encrypt 2FA plaintext data without the need for a secondary trust
        relationship. Further, if the second factor second-factor verifiers are sent at the
        same time as the first factor first-factor verifier, and the KDC is careful to
        prevent timing attacks, then an online brute-force attack cannot be
        used to attack the factors separately.</t>

        <t>For these reasons, this document departs from the advice given in
        Section 1 of
        <xref target="RFC6113">RFC 6113</xref> target="RFC6113" section="1" sectionFormat="of"/>, which states that states:
        "Mechanism designers should design FAST factors, instead of new
        pre-authentication mechanisms outside of FAST." However, the SPAKE
        pre-authentication mechanism does not intend to replace FAST, FAST and may
        be used with it to further conceal the metadata of the Kerberos
        messages.</t>
      </section>

      <section><name>SPAKE Overview</name>
        <t>The SPAKE algorithm can be broadly described in a series of four
        steps:</t>
        <ol>
          <li>Calculation and exchange of the public key</li>
          <li>Calculation of the shared secret (K)</li>
          <li>Derivation of an encryption key (K')</li>
          <li>Verification of the derived encryption key (K')</li>
        </ol>
        <t>In this mechanism, key verification happens implicitly by a
        successful decryption of the 2FA data, data or of a placeholder value when
        no second factor is required. This mechanism uses a tailored method of
        deriving encryption keys from the calculated shared secret K, for
        several reasons: to reasons:</t>
	<ul>
	<li>to fit within the framework of <xref
        target="RFC3961"/>, to

        hash, to

        <t>The SPAKE pre-authentication exchange begins when the client sends
        an initial authentication service request (AS-REQ) without
        pre-authentication data. Upon receipt of this AS-REQ, a KDC which that
        requires pre-authentication and supports SPAKE SHOULD <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14>
        (unless configuration indicates otherwise) reply with a
        KDC_ERR_PREAUTH_REQUIRED error, with METHOD-DATA containing an empty
        PA-SPAKE PA-DATA element (possibly in addition to other PA-DATA
        elements). This message indicates to the client that the KDC supports

      <section><name>Second Pass</name>

        and the client desires wants to use it, the client will generate a new
        AS-REQ message containing a PA-SPAKE PA-DATA element using the support
        choice. This message indicates to the KDC which groups the client
        prefers for the SPAKE operation. The group numbers are defined in the IANA
        "Kerberos SPAKE Groups" registry created by this document. (see <xref target="SPAKE-Groups"/>). The groups group's

        pre-authentication data) with a PA-SPAKE PA-DATA element using the
        challenge choice, choice instead of an empty padata-value. In this case, the
        KDC optimistically selects a group which that the client may not
        support. If the group chosen by the challenge message is supported by
        the client, the client MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> skip to the third pass by issuing an
        AS-REQ with a PA-SPAKE message using the response choice. In this case case,
        no SPAKESupport message is sent by the client, so the first update to
        the transcript hash contains only the KDC's optimistic challenge. If
        the KDC's chosen group is not supported by the client, the client MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14>
        continue to the second pass. In this case case, both the client and KDC MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14>
        reinitialize the transcript hash for the client's support message.
        Clients MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> support this optimization.</t>

        <t>Second, clients MAY <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> skip the first pass and send an AS-REQ with a
        PA-SPAKE PA-DATA element using the support choice. If the KDC accepts
        the support message and generates a challenge, it MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> include a
        PA-ETYPE-INFO2 value within the METHOD-DATA of the
        KDC_ERR_MORE_PREAUTH_DATA_REQUIRED error response, as the client may
        not otherwise be able to compute the initial reply key. If the KDC
        cannot continue with SPAKE (either because the initial reply key type is
        incompatible with SPAKE or because it does not support any of the
        client's groups) but can offer other pre-authentication mechanisms, it

      <t>When the transcript hash is updated with an octet string input, the

A common solution to this problem is achieved by reducing the multiplier
modulo the group order, taking care to ensure constant time operation.

        <t>The conversion of the scalar multiplier for the SPAKE w parameter
        may produce a multiplier that is larger than the order of the group.
        Some group implementations may be unable to handle such a multiplier.
        Others may silently accept such a multiplier, multiplier but proceed to perform
        multiplication that is not constant time. This is only a minor risk in
        most commonly-used commonly used groups, but it is a more serious risk for P-521 due to
        the extra seven high bits in the input octet string. A common solution
        to this problem is achieved by reducing the multiplier modulo the group
        order, taking care to ensure constant time operation.</t>

        <t>A stateless KDC implementation generally must use a PA-FX-COOKIE
        value to remember its private scalar value x and the transcript hash.
        The KDC MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> maintain confidentiality and integrity of the cookie
        value, perhaps by encrypting it in a key known only to the realm's
        KDCs. Cookie values may be replayed by attackers, perhaps by splicing them
        into different SPAKE exchanges. The KDC SHOULD <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> limit the time window of
        replays using a timestamp, and SHOULD it <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> prevent cookie values from being
        applied to other pre-authentication mechanisms or other client
        principals. Within the validity period of a cookie, an attacker can
        replay the final message of a pre-authentication exchange to any of the
        realm's KDCs and make it appear that the client has authenticated.</t>

        <t>The SPAKE pre-authentication mechanism is not designed to provide
        forward secrecy. Nevertheless, some measure of forward secrecy may
        result depending on implementation choices. A passive attacker who
        determines the client long-term key after the exchange generally will
        not be able to recover the ticket session key; however, an attacker who
        also determines the PA-FX-COOKIE encryption key (if the KDC uses an
        encrypted cookie) will be able to recover the ticket session key. If
        the KDC or client retains the x or y value for reuse with the same
        client long-term key, an attacker who recovers the x or y value and the
        long-term key will be able to recover the ticket session key.</t>

<!--[rfced] In Section 10.5, the phrases "encrypted timestamp" and "encrypted
challenge" appear without articles. We have adjusted these terms as follows.  Please review and let us know any objections.

We have provided an example below. Please review these changes in Section 10.5
and confirm they do not alter your intended meaning.

Original:

Client implementations SHOULD provide a configuration option to enable or
disable encrypted timestamp on a per-realm basis to mitigate this attack.

Current:

Client implementations SHOULD provide a configuration option to
enable or disable encrypted timestamping on a per-realm basis to
mitigate this attack.

-->

        <t>Although the SPAKE pre-authentication mechanism is designed to
        prevent an offline dictionary attack by an active attacker posing as
        the KDC, such an attacker can attempt to downgrade the client to
        encrypted timestamp. timestamping. Client implementations SHOULD <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> provide a
        configuration option to enable or disable encrypted timestamp timestamping on a
        per-realm basis to mitigate this attack.</t>

        <t>If the user enters the wrong password, the client might fall back to
        encrypted timestamp timestamping after receiving a KDC_ERR_PREAUTH_FAILED error from
        the KDC, if encrypted timestamp timestamping is offered by the KDC and not disabled
        by client configuration. This fallback will enable a passive attacker
        to mount an offline dictionary attack against the incorrect password,
        which may be similar to the correct password. Client implementations
        SHOULD
        <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> assume that encrypted timestamp timestamping and encrypted challenge challenging are
        unlikely to succeed if SPAKE pre-authentication fails in the second
        pass and SF-NONE was used.</t>

        <t>Like any other pre-authentication mechanism using the client
        long-term key, the SPAKE pre-authentication mechanism does not prevent
        online password guessing attacks. The KDC is made aware of unsuccessful
        guesses,
        guesses and can apply facilities such as rate limiting to mitigate the
        risk of online attacks.</t>

        <t>The selected group's resistance to offline brute-force attacks may

        KDC MAY <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> select a group whose brute-force work factor is less than the
        reply key length. A passive attacker who solves the group discrete
        logarithm problem after the exchange will be able to conduct an offline
        attack against the client long-term key. Although the use of password
        policies and costly, salted string-to-key functions may increase the
        cost of such an attack, the resulting cost will likely not be higher

        <t>The encdata choice of PA-SPAKE can be used in either direction, and direction;
        the factor-specific plaintext does not necessarily indicate a
        direction. However, each encdata message is encrypted using a derived
        key K'[n], with client-originated messages using only odd values of n

        <t>This mechanism does not upgrade the encryption type of the initial
        reply key, key and relies on that encryption type for confidentiality,
        integrity, and pseudo-random pseudorandom functions. If the client long-term key
        uses a weak encryption type, an attacker might be able to subvert the

<!--[rfced] We have a question and changes regarding the terminology used
in this document. Please review carefully and let us know any guidance or
objections where necessary.

a. Regarding the expansion of the abbreviation PAKE:

i: PAKE is expanded as "Password-Authenticated Key Agreement (PAKE)"
in informative reference RFC 8125.  Please confirm that it should
remain "password-authenticated key exchange" in this document (note
that this decision may affect the expansion of SPAKE in the document
title (see our previous query))?

ii: We see instances of "PAKE exchange" or "SPAKE pre-authentication
exchange".  Should "exchange" be removed or the text be rewritten as
the "e" seems to stand for "exchange"?  If so, please let us know how
you'd like to update using Old/New.

b. We see both "factor field" and "factors field" and "group field"
and "groups field".  Should these be made consistent?  If so, which is
preferred?

c.  There are certain times in the document when a label may be
missing for the name of something (e.g., "error code" or "element").
Please keep cases like the following in mind while reviewing the
document and let us know if/how these (and any other instances) should
be updated.

For example, should:

...it MUST reply with a subsequent AS-REQ with a PA-SPAKE PA-DATA
using...

be made:

...it MUST reply with a subsequent AS-REQ with a PA-SPAKE PA-DATA
element using...

d. FYI -  For consistency, we have updated these terms as follows:

i. reply-key to reply key (when in attributive position to match normative reference use and our treatment of public key in past RFCs)

<!--[rfced] Throughout the text, we see uses of phrases like the following:

Example:
The key for this field is K'[1] as specified in Section 7.

Is "as specified in Section 7" added information (nonessential)?  If so, may we put a comma before this type of phrase or put it in parentheses?  Please review all similar occurrences throughout the
document and let us know if other updates should be made as well.-->

<!--[rfced] We have updated <artwork> to <sourcecode type="test-vectors"> in
Appendix C. Please confirm that this is correct and that the "type"
attribute of these sourcecode elements has been set correctly.

The current list of preferred values for "type" is available at
https://www.rfc-editor.org/materials/sourcecode-types.txt. If the current
list does not contain an applicable type, feel free to suggest additions
for consideration. Note that it is also acceptable to leave the "type"
attribute not set.

<!--[rfced] Please review the "Inclusive Language" portion of the online Style
Guide <https://www.rfc-editor.org/styleguide/part2/#inclusive_language>
and let us know if any changes are needed.

For example, please consider whether "traditional" should be updated for
clarity in the text below:

...the traditional KDC authentication provided by the KDC-REP enc-part still applies.

While the NIST website
<https://www.nist.gov/nist-research-library/nist-technical-series-publications-author-instructions#table1>
indicates that this term is potentially biased, it is also ambiguous.
"Tradition" is a subjective term, as it is not the same for everyone.
