| +Secure RTP (SRTP) Reference Implementation
|
| +David A. McGrew
|
| +Cisco Systems, Inc.
|
| +mcgrew@cisco.com
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +This package provides an implementation of the Secure Real-time
|
| +Transport Protocol (SRTP), the Universal Security Transform (UST), and
|
| +a supporting cryptographic kernel. These mechanisms are documented in
|
| +the Internet Drafts in the doc/ subdirectory. The SRTP API is
|
| +documented in include/srtp.h, and the library is in libsrtp.a (after
|
| +compilation). An overview and reference manual is available in
|
| +doc/libsrtp.pdf. The PDF documentation is more up to date than this
|
| +file.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +Installation:
|
| +
|
| +./configure [ options ] # GNU autoconf script
|
| +make # or gmake if needed; use GNU make
|
| +
|
| +The configure script accepts the following options:
|
| +
|
| + --help provides a usage summary
|
| + --disable-debug compile without the runtime debugging system
|
| + --enable-syslog use syslog for error reporting
|
| + --disable-stdout use stdout for error reporting
|
| + --enable-console use /dev/console for error reporting
|
| + --gdoi use GDOI key management (disabled at present)
|
| +
|
| +By default, debbuging is enabled and stdout is used for debugging.
|
| +You can use the above configure options to have the debugging output
|
| +sent to syslog or the system console. Alternatively, you can define
|
| +ERR_REPORTING_FILE in include/conf.h to be any other file that can be
|
| +opened by libSRTP, and debug messages will be sent to it.
|
| +
|
| +This package has been tested on Mac OS X (powerpc-apple-darwin1.4),
|
| +Cygwin (i686-pc-cygwin), and Sparc (sparc-sun-solaris2.6). Previous
|
| +versions have been tested on Linux and OpenBSD on both x86 and sparc
|
| +platforms.

| +Applications
|
| +
|
| + Several test drivers and a simple and portable srtp application
|
| + are included in the test/ subdirectory.

|
| + kernel_driver crypto kernel (ciphers, auth funcs, rng)
|
| + srtp_driver srtp in-memory tests (does not use the network)
|
| + rdbx_driver rdbx (extended replay database)
|
| + roc_driver extended sequence number functions

| + replay_driver replay database (n.b. not used in libsrtp)

| + cipher_driver ciphers
|
| + auth_driver hash functions
|
| +
|
| + The app rtpw is a simple rtp application which reads words from
|
| + /usr/dict/words and then sends them out one at a time using [s]rtp.
|
| + Manual srtp keying uses the -k option; automated key management
|
| + using gdoi will be added later.
|
| +
|
| +usage: rtpw [-d <debug>]* [-k <key> [-a][-e]] [-s | -r] dest_ip dest_port
|
| +or rtpw -l
|
| +
|
| + Either the -s (sender) or -r (receiver) option must be chosen.
|
| +
|
| + The values dest_ip, dest_port are the ip address and udp port to
|
| + which the dictionary will be sent, respectively.
|
| +
|
| + options:
|
| +
|
| + -s (s)rtp sender - causes app to send words
|
| +
|
| + -r (s)rtp receive - causes app to receve words
|
| +
|
| + -k <key> use srtp master key <key>, where the
|
| + key is a hexadecimal value (without the
|
| + leading "0x")
|
| +
|
| + -e encrypt/decrypt (for data confidentiality)
|
| + (requires use of -k option as well)
|
| +
|
| + -a message authentication
|
| + (requires use of -k option as well)
|
| +
|
| + -l list debug modules
|
| +
|
| + -d <debug> turn on debugging for module <debug>
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +In order to get random 30-byte values for use as key/salt pairs , you
|
| +can use the following bash function to format the output of
|
| +/dev/random (where that device is available).
|
| +
|
| +function randhex() {
|
| + cat /dev/random | od --read-bytes=32 --width=32 -x | awk '{ print $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9 $10 $11 $12 $13 $14 $15 $16 }'
|
| +}
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +An example of an SRTP session using two rtpw programs follows:
|
| +
|
| +set k=c1eec3717da76195bb878578790af71c4ee9f859e197a414a78d5abc7451
|
| +

| +set master key/salt to C1EEC3717DA76195BB878578790AF71C/4EE9F859E197A414A78D5ABC7451
|
| +setting SSRC to 2078917053

|
| +Implementation Notes
|
| +
|
| + * The srtp_protect() function assumes that the buffer holding the
|
| + rtp packet has enough storage allocated that the authentication
|
| + tag can be written to the end of that packet. If this assumption
|
| + is not valid, memory corruption will ensue.
|
| +
|
| + * Automated tests for the crypto functions are provided through
|
| + the cipher_type_self_test() and auth_type_self_test() functions.
|
| + These functions should be used to test each port of this code
|
| + to a new platform.
|
| +
|
| + * Replay protection is contained in the crypto engine, and
|
| + tests for it are provided.
|
| +
|
| + * This implementation provides calls to initialize, protect, and
|
| + unprotect RTP packets, and makes as few as possible assumptions
|
| + about how these functions will be called. For example, the
|
| + caller is not expected to provide packets in order (though if
|
| + they're called more than 65k out of sequence, synchronization
|
| + will be lost).
|
| +
|
| + * The sequence number in the rtp packet is used as the low 16 bits
|
| + of the sender's local packet index. Note that RTP will start its
|
| + sequence number in a random place, and the SRTP layer just jumps
|
| + forward to that number at its first invocation. An earlier
|
| + version of this library used initial sequence numbers that are
|
| + less than 32,768; this trick is no longer required as the
|
| + rdbx_estimate_index(...) function has been made smarter.
|
| +
|
| + * The replay window is 128 bits in length, and is hard-coded to this
|
| + value for now.
