Comment on DERIVE and B2BUAs

Viktor,

An interesting draft addressing a known problem space. Dan Wing has already pointed out similarities with draft-wing-sip-e164-rrc (now expired). I fear the present draft will not work in the presence of B2BUAs along the path of the INVITE request, since these tend to change things like call-ID, to-tag and from-tag. Since B2BUAs, and SBCs in particular, are the main reasons why RFC 4474 will not work, any solution has to be able to work through these devices.

> Creation_date:     2008-10-25
> WG ID:             Indvidual Submission
> Number_of_pages: 24
> Abstract:
> This document provides a simple mechanism to prevent an attacker from
> presenting a forged "From" header field.  It offers an end-to-end
> identity assumption which does not require any previous association
> or trust relationship between administrative domains or the UAs.  The
> UAS verifies the "From" header by subscribing to the Dialog Event
> package [RFC 4235] at the AOR in the "From" header field.  If the
> entity calling is registered under this AOR, it will confirm that it
> is calling by sending some valid dialog state.  In this case, the
> identity of the caller is considered to be verified.
