RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 20161.  Introduction   IPv6 was designed to improve upon IPv4 in many respects, and   mechanisms for address assignment were one such area for improvement.   In addition to static address assignment and DHCP, stateless   autoconfiguration was developed as a less intensive, fate-shared   means of performing address assignment.  With stateless   autoconfiguration, routers advertise on-link prefixes and hosts   generate their own Interface Identifiers (IIDs) to complete their   addresses.  [RFC7136] clarifies that the IID should be treated as an   opaque value, while [RFC7421] provides an analysis of the 64-bit   boundary in IPv6 addressing (e.g., the implications of the IID length   on security and privacy).  Over the years, many IID generation   techniques have been defined, both standardized and non-standardized:   o  Manual configuration [RFC7707]      *  IPv4 address      *  Service port      *  Wordy      *  Low-byte   o  Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC)      *  IEEE 802 48-bit Media Access Control (MAC) or IEEE 64-bit         Extended Unique Identifier (EUI-64) [RFC2464]      *  Cryptographically generated [RFC3972]      *  Temporary (also known as "privacy addresses") [RFC4941]      *  Constant, semantically opaque (also known as "random")         [Microsoft]      *  Stable, semantically opaque [RFC7217]   o  DHCPv6 based [RFC3315]   o  Specified by transition/co-existence technologies      *  Derived from an IPv4 address (e.g., [RFC5214], [RFC6052])      *  Derived from an IPv4 address and port set ID (e.g., [RFC7596],         [RFC7597], [RFC7599])Cooper, et al.

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 2016      *  Derived from an IPv4 address and port (e.g., [RFC4380])   Deriving the IID from a globally unique IEEE identifier [RFC2464]   [RFC4862] was one of the earliest mechanisms developed (and   originally specified in [RFC1971] and [RFC1972]).  A number of   privacy and security issues related to the IIDs derived from IEEE   identifiers were discovered after their standardization, and many of   the mechanisms developed later aimed to mitigate some or all of these   weaknesses.  This document identifies four types of attacks against   IEEE-identifier-based IIDs and discusses how other existing   techniques for generating IIDs do or do not mitigate those attacks.2.  Terminology   This section clarifies the terminology used throughout this document.   Public address:      An address that has been published in a directory or other public      location, such as the DNS, a SIP proxy [RFC3261], an application-      specific Distributed Hash Table (DHT), or a publicly available      URI.  A host's public addresses are intended to be discoverable by      third parties.   Stable address:      An address that does not vary over time within the same IPv6 link.      Note that [RFC4941] refers to these as "public" addresses, but      "stable" is used here for reasons explained inSection 4.   Temporary address:      An address that varies over time within the same IPv6 link.   Constant IID:      An IPv6 interface identifier that is globally stable.  That is,      the Interface ID will remain constant even if the node moves from      one IPv6 link to another.   Stable IID:      An IPv6 interface identifier that is stable within some specified      context.  For example, an Interface ID can be globally stable      (constant) or could be stable per IPv6 link (meaning that the      Interface ID will remain unchanged as long as the node stays on      the same IPv6 link but may change when the node moves from one      IPv6 link to another).   Temporary IID:      An IPv6 interface identifier that varies over time.Cooper, et al.                Informational                     [Page 4]

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 2016   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and   "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in   [RFC2119].  These words take their normative meanings only when they   are presented in ALL UPPERCASE.3.  Weaknesses in IEEE-Identifier-Based IIDs   There are a number of privacy and security implications that exist   for hosts that use IEEE-identifier-based IIDs.  This section   discusses four generic attack types: correlation of activities over   time, location tracking, address scanning, and device-specific   vulnerability exploitation.  The first three of these rely on the   attacker first gaining knowledge of the IID of the target host.  This   could be achieved by a number of different entities: the operator of   a server to which the host connects, such as a web server or a peer-   to-peer server; an entity that connects to the same IPv6 link as the   target (such as a conference network or any public network); a   passive observer of traffic that the host broadcasts; or an entity   that is on path to the destinations with which the host communicates,   such as a network operator.3.1.  Correlation of Activities over Time   As with other identifiers, an IPv6 address can be used to correlate   the activities of a host for at least as long as the lifetime of the   address.  The correlation made possible by IEEE-identifier-based IIDs   is of particular concern since they last roughly for the lifetime of   a device's network interface, allowing correlation on the order of   years.   As [RFC4941] explains,      [t]he use of a non-changing interface identifier to form addresses      is a specific instance of the more general case where a constant      identifier is reused over an extended period of time and in      multiple independent activities.  Anytime the same identifier is      used in multiple contexts, it becomes possible for that identifier      to be used to correlate seemingly unrelated activity. ... The use      of a constant identifier within an address is of special concern      because addresses are a fundamental requirement of communication      and cannot easily be hidden from eavesdroppers and other parties.      Even when higher layers encrypt their payloads, addresses in      packet headers appear in the clear.   IP addresses are just one example of information that can be used to   correlate activities over time.

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 2016   can all be used to link a host's activities together.  Although IEEE-   identifier-based IIDs are likely to last at least as long or longer   than these other identifiers, IIDs generated in other ways may have   shorter or longer lifetimes than these identifiers depending on how   they are generated.  Therefore, the extent to which a host's   activities can be correlated depends on whether the host uses   multiple identifiers together and the lifetimes of all of those   identifiers.  Frequently refreshing an IPv6 address may not mitigate   correlation if an attacker has access to other longer-lived   identifiers for a particular host.  This is an important caveat to   keep in mind throughout the discussion of correlation in this   document.  For further discussion of correlation, seeSection 5.2.1   of [RFC6973].   As noted in [RFC4941], in some cases correlation is just as feasible   for a host using an IPv4 address as for a host using an IEEE   identifier to generate its IID in its IPv6 address.  Hosts that use   static IPv4 addressing or who are consistently allocated the same   address via DHCPv4 can be tracked as described above.  However, the   widespread use of both NAT and DHCPv4 implementations that assign the   same host a different address upon lease expiration mitigates this   threat in the IPv4 case as compared to the IEEE identifier case in   IPv6.3.2.  Location Tracking   Because the IPv6 address structure is divided between a topological   portion and an interface identifier portion, an interface identifier   that remains constant when a host connects to different IPv6 links   (as an IEEE-identifier-based IID does) provides a way for observers   to track the movements of that host.  In a passive attack on a mobile   host, a server that receives connections from the same host over time   would be able to determine the host's movements as its prefix   changes.   Active attacks are also possible.  An attacker that first learns the   host's interface identifier by being connected to the same IPv6 link,   running a server that the host connects to, or being on path to the   host's communications could subsequently probe other networks for the   presence of the same interface identifier by sending a probe packet   (e.g., ICMPv6 Echo Request, or any other probe packet).  Even if the   host does not respond, the first-hop router will usually respond with   an ICMP Destination Unreachable/Address Unreachable (type 1, code 3)   when the host is not present and be silent when the host is present.   Location tracking based on IP address is generally not possible in   IPv4 since hosts get assigned wholly new addresses when they change   networks.Cooper, et al.                Informational                     [Page 6]

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 20163.3.  Address Scanning   The structure of IEEE-based identifiers used for address generation   can be leveraged by an attacker to reduce the target search space   [RFC7707].  The 24-bit Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) of   MAC addresses, together with the fixed value (0xff, 0xfe) used to   form a Modified EUI-64 interface identifier, greatly help to reduce   the search space, making it easier for an attacker to scan for   individual addresses using widely known popular OUIs.  This erases   much of the protection against address scanning that the larger IPv6   address space could provide as compared to IPv4.3.4.  Device-Specific Vulnerability Exploitation   IPv6 addresses that embed IEEE identifiers leak information about the   device (e.g., Network Interface Card vendor, or even Operating System   and/or software type), which could be leveraged by an attacker with   knowledge of device- or software-specific vulnerabilities to quickly   find possible targets.  Attackers can exploit vulnerabilities in   hosts whose IIDs they have previously obtained or scan an address   space to find potential targets.4.  Privacy and Security Properties of Address Generation Mechanisms   Analysis of the extent to which a particular host is protected   against the attacks described inSection 3 depends on how each of a   host's addresses is generated and used.  In some scenarios, a host   configures a single global address and uses it for all   communications.  In other scenarios, a host configures multiple   addresses using different mechanisms and may use any or all of them.   [RFC3041] (later obsoleted by [RFC4941]) sought to address some of   the problems described inSection 3 by defining "temporary addresses"   for outbound connections.  Temporary addresses are meant to   supplement the other addresses that a device might use, not to   replace them.  They use IIDs that are randomly generated and change   daily by default.  The idea was for temporary addresses to be used   for outgoing connections (e.g., web browsing) while maintaining the   ability to use a stable address when more address stability is   desired (e.g., for IPv6 addresses published in the DNS).   [RFC3484] originally specified that stable addresses be used for   outbound connections unless an application explicitly prefers   temporary addresses.  The default preference for stable addresses was   established to avoid applications potentially failing due to the   short lifetime of temporary addresses or the possibility of a reverse   look-up failure or error.  However, [RFC3484] allowed that   "implementations for which privacy considerations outweigh theseCooper, et al.                Informational                     [Page 7]

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 2016   application-compatibility concerns MAY reverse the sense of this   rule" and instead prefer by default temporary addresses rather than   stable addresses.  Indeed, most implementations (notably including   Windows) chose to default to temporary addresses for outbound   connections since privacy was considered more important (and few   applications supported IPv6 at the time, so application compatibility   concerns were minimal).  [RFC6724] then obsoleted [RFC3484] and   changed the default to match what implementations actually did.   The envisioned relationship in [RFC3484] between stability of an   address and its use in "public" can be misleading when conducting   privacy analysis.  The stability of an address and the extent to   which it is linkable to some other public identifier are independent   of one another.  For example, there is nothing that prevents a host   from publishing a temporary address in a public place, such as the   DNS.  Publishing both a stable address and a temporary address in the   DNS or elsewhere where they can be linked together by a public   identifier allows the host's activities when using either address to   be correlated together.   Moreover, because temporary addresses were designed to supplement   other addresses generated by a host, the host may still configure a   more stable address even if it only ever intentionally uses temporary   addresses (as source addresses) for communication to off-link   destinations.  An attacker can probe for the stable address even if   it is never used as such a source address or advertised outside the   link (e.g., in DNS or SIP).   This section compares the privacy and security properties of a   variety of IID generation mechanisms and their possible usage   scenarios, including scenarios in which a single mechanism is used to   generate all of a host's IIDs and those in which temporary addresses   are used together with addresses generated using a different IID   generation mechanism.  The analysis of the exposure of each IID type   to correlation assumes that IPv6 prefixes are shared by a reasonably   large number of nodes.  As [RFC4941] notes, if a very small number of   nodes (say, only one) use a particular prefix for an extended period   of time, the prefix itself can be used to correlate the host's   activities regardless of how the IID is generated.  For example,   [RFC3314] recommends that prefixes be uniquely assigned to mobile   handsets where IPv6 is used within General Packet Radio Service   (GPRS).  In cases where this advice is followed and prefixes persist   for extended periods of time (or get reassigned to the same handsets   whenever those handsets reconnect to the same network router), hosts'   activities could be correlatable for longer periods than the analysis   below would suggest.Cooper, et al.                Informational                     [Page 8]

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 20164.1.  IEEE-Identifier-Based IIDs   As discussed inSection 3, addresses that use IIDs based on IEEE   identifiers are vulnerable to all four attacks.  They allow   correlation and location tracking for the lifetime of the device   since IEEE identifiers last that long and their structure makes   address scanning and device exploits possible.4.2.  Static, Manually Configured IIDs   Because static, manually configured IIDs are stable, both correlation   and location tracking are possible for the life of the address.   The extent to which location tracking can be successfully performed   depends, to some extent, on the uniqueness of the employed IID.  For   example, one would expect "low byte" IIDs to be more widely reused   than, for example, IIDs where the whole 64 bits follow some pattern   that is unique to a specific organization.  Widely reused IIDs will   typically lead to false positives when performing location tracking.   Whether manually configured addresses are vulnerable to address   scanning and device exploits depends on the specifics of how the IIDs   are generated.4.3.  Constant, Semantically Opaque IIDs   Although a mechanism to generate a constant, semantically opaque IID   has not been standardized, it has been in wide use for many years on   at least one platform (Windows).  Windows uses the random generation   mechanism described in [RFC4941] in lieu of generating an IEEE-   identifier-based IID.  This mitigates the device-specific   exploitation and address-scanning attacks but still allows   correlation and location tracking because the IID is constant across   IPv6 links and time.4.4.  Cryptographically Generated IIDs   Cryptographically Generated Addresses (CGAs) [RFC3972] bind a hash of   the host's public key to an IPv6 address in the SEcure Neighbor   Discovery (SEND) protocol [RFC3971].  CGAs may be regenerated for   each subnet prefix, but this is not required given that they are   computationally expensive to generate.  A host using a CGA can be   correlated for as long as the lifetime of the combination of the   public key and the chosen modifier block since it is possible to   rotate modifier blocks without generating new public keys.  Because   the cryptographic hash of the host's public key uses the subnet   prefix as an input, even if the host does not generate a new public   key or modifier block when it moves to a different IPv6 link, itsCooper, et al.

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 2016   location cannot be tracked via the IID.  CGAs do not allow device-   specific exploitation or address-scanning attacks.4.5.  Stable, Semantically Opaque IIDs   [RFC7217] specifies an algorithm that generates, for each network   interface, a unique random IID per IPv6 link.  The aforementioned   algorithm is employed not only for global unicast addresses, but also   for unique local unicast addresses and link-local unicast addresses   since these addresses may leak out via application protocols (e.g.,   IPv6 addresses embedded in email headers).   A host that stays connected to the same IPv6 link could therefore be   tracked at length, whereas a mobile host's activities could only be   correlated for the duration of each network connection.  Location   tracking is not possible with these addresses.  They also do not   allow device-specific exploitation or address-scanning attacks.4.6.  Temporary IIDs   A host that uses only a temporary address mitigates all four threats.   Its activities may only be correlated for the lifetime of a single   temporary address.   A host that configures both an IEEE-identifier-based IID and   temporary addresses makes the host vulnerable to the same attacks as   if temporary addresses were not in use, although the viability of   some of them depends on how the host uses each address.  An attacker   can correlate all of the host's activities for which it uses its   IEEE-identifier-based IID.  Once an attacker has obtained the IEEE-   identifier-based IID, location tracking becomes possible on other   IPv6 links even if the host only makes use of temporary addresses on   those other IPv6 links; the attacker can actively probe the other   IPv6 links for the presence of the IEEE-identifier-based IID.   Device-specific vulnerabilities can still be exploited.  Address   scanning is also still possible because the IEEE-identifier-based   address can be probed.   If the host instead generates a constant, semantically opaque IID to   use in a stable address for server-like connections together with   temporary addresses for outbound connections (as is the default in   Windows), it sees some improvements over the previous scenario.  The   address-scanning attacks and device-specific exploitation attacks are   no longer possible because the OUI is no longer embedded in any of   the host's addresses.  However, correlation of some activities across   time and location tracking are both still possible because the   semantically opaque IID is constant.  And once an attacker has   obtained the host's semantically opaque IID, location tracking isCooper, et al.                Informational                    [Page 11]

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 2016   possible on any network by probing for that IID, even if the host   only uses temporary addresses on those networks.  However, if the   host generates but never uses a constant, semantically opaque IID, it   mitigates all four threats.   When used together with temporary addresses, the stable, semantically   opaque IID generation mechanism [RFC7217] improves upon the previous   scenario by limiting the potential for correlation to the lifetime of   the stable address (which may still be lengthy for hosts that are not   mobile) and by eliminating the possibility for location tracking   (since a different IID is generated for each subnet prefix).  As in   the previous scenario, a host that configures but does not use a   stable, semantically opaque address mitigates all four threats.4.7.  DHCPv6 Generation of IIDs   The security and privacy implications of DHCPv6-based addresses will   typically depend on whether the client requests an IA_NA (Identity   Association for Non-temporary Addresses) or an IA_TA (Identity   Association for Temporary Addresses) [RFC3315] and the specific   DHCPv6 server software being employed.   DHCPv6 temporary addresses have the same properties as SLAAC   temporary addresses (seeSection 4.6).  On the other hand, the   properties of DHCPv6 non-temporary addresses typically depend on the   specific DHCPv6 server software being employed.  Recent releases of   most popular DHCPv6 server software typically lease random addresses   with a similar lease time as that of IPv4.  Thus, these addresses can   be considered to be "stable, semantically opaque".  [DHCPv6-IID]   specifies an algorithm that can be employed by DHCPv6 servers to   generate "stable, semantically opaque" addresses.   On the other hand, some DHCPv6 software leases sequential addresses   (typically low-byte addresses).  These addresses can be considered to   be stable addresses.  The drawback of this address generation scheme   compared to "stable, semantically opaque" addresses is that, since   they follow specific patterns, they enable IPv6 address scans.4.8.  Transition and Coexistence Technologies   Addresses specified based on transition or coexistence technologies   that embed an IPv4 address within an IPv6 address are not included in   Table 1 because their privacy and security properties are inherited   from the embedded address.  For example, Teredo [RFC4380] specifies a   means to generate an IPv6 address from the underlying IPv4 address   and port, leaving many other bits set to zero.  This makes it   relatively easy for an attacker to scan for IPv6 addresses by   guessing the Teredo client's IPv4 address and port (which for manyCooper, et al.

RFC 7721             IPv6 Address Generation Privacy          March 2016   NATs is not randomized).  For this reason, popular implementations   (e.g., Windows) began deviating from the standard by including 12   random bits in place of zero bits.  This modification was later   standardized in [RFC5991].   Some other transition technologies (e.g., [RFC5214], [RFC6052])   specify means to generate an IPv6 address from an underlying IPv4   address without a port.  Such mechanisms thus make it much easier for   an attacker to conduct an address scan than for mechanisms that   require finding a port number as well.   Finally, still other mechanisms (e.g., [RFC7596], [RFC7597],   [RFC7599]) are somewhere in between, using an IPv4 address and a port   set ID (which for many NATs is not randomized).  In general, such   mechanisms are thus typically as easy to scan as in the Teredo   example above without the 12-bit mitigation.5.  Miscellaneous Issues with IPv6 Addressing5.1.  Network Operation   It is generally agreed that IPv6 addresses that vary over time in a   specific IPv6 link tend to increase the complexity of event logging,   trouble-shooting, enforcement of access controls and quality of   service, etc.  As a result, some organizations disable the use of   temporary addresses [RFC4941] even at the expense of reduced privacy   [Broersma].5.2.  Compliance   Some IPv6 compliance testing suites required (and might still   require) implementations to support IEEE-identifier-based IIDs in   order to be approved as compliant.  This document recommends that   compliance testing suites be relaxed to allow other forms of address   generation that are more amenable to privacy.5.3.  Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs)   Some IPv6 addressing techniques might be covered by Intellectual   Property rights, which might limit their implementation in different   operating systems.  [CGA-IPR] and [KAME-CGA] discuss the IPRs on   CGAs.6.  Security Considerations   This whole document concerns the privacy and security properties of   different IPv6 address generation mechanisms.Cooper, et al.
