Introduction IKEv1 [RFC2409] and its related documents for ISAKMP [RFC2408] and IPsec DOI [RFC2407] were obsoleted by IKEv2 [RFC4306] in December 2005. The latest version of IKEv2 at the time of writing was published in 2014 in [RFC7296]. The Internet Key Exchange (IKE) version 2 has replaced version 1 over 15 years ago. IKEv2 has now seen wide deployment and provides a full replacement for all IKEv1 functionality. No new modifications or new algorithms have been accepted for IKEv1 for at least a decade. IKEv2 addresses various issues present in IKEv1, such as IKEv1 being vulnerable to amplification attacks. This document specifies the deprecation of IKEv1, and requests IANA to close all IKEv1 registries. IKEv1 MUST NOT be deployed. Algorithm implementation requirements and usage guidelines for IKEv2 [RFC8247] and ESP/AH [RFC8223] gives guidance to implementors but limits that guidance to avoid broken or weak algorithms. It does not deprecate algorithms that have aged and are no longer in use, but leave these algorithms in a state of "MAY be used". This document deprecates those algorithms that are no longer advised but for which there are no known attacks resulting in their earlier deprecation. 2. Requirements Language 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 BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. Wouters Expires May 23, 2020 [Page 2] Internet-Draft Deprecation of IKEv1 and some algorithms November 2019 3. Deprecating IKEv1 IKEv1 is deprecated and MUST NOT be deployed. Systems running IKEv1 should be upgraded and reconfigured to run IKEv2. Systems that support IKEv1 but not IKEv2 are most likely also unsuitable candidates for continued operation. Such unsupported systems have a much higher chance of containing an implementation vulnerability that will never be patched. IKEv1 systems can be abused for packet amplification attacks. IKEv1 systems most likely do not support modern algorithms such as AES-GCM or CHACHA20_POLY1305 and quite often only support or have been configured to use the very weak Diffie-Hellman Groups 2 and 5. IKEv1 systems must be upgraded or replaced by IKEv2 systems. IKEv1 and its way of using Preshared Keys (PSKs) protects against quantum computer based attacks. IKEv2 updated its use of PSK to improve the error reporting, but at the expense of post-quantum security. If post-quantum security is required, these systems should be migrated to use IKEv2 Postquantum Preshared Keys (PPK) [draft-ietf-ipsecme-qr-ikev2]. Some IKEv1 implementations support Labeled IPsec, a method to negotiate an addition Security Context selector to the SPD, but this method was never standarized in IKEv1. Those IKEv1 systems that require Labeled IPsec should migrate to an IKEv2 system supporting Labeled IPsec as specified in [draft-ietf-ipsecme-labeled-ipsec]. EDITOR NOTE: This document is expected to be released only after the PPK draft has become an RFC. While the same could be said for Labeled IPsec, there is no IKEv1 RFC that specifies Labeled IPsec, so pointing to a draft here does not demote a reference from RFC to a draft. 4. Deprecating obsolete algorithms This document deprecates the following algorithms: o Encryption Algorithms: RC5, IDEA, CAST, Blowfish, and the unspecified 3IDEA, ENCR_DES_IV64 and ENCR_DES_IV32 o PRF Algorithms: the unspecified PRF_HMAC_TIGER o Integrity Algorithms: HMAC-MD5-128 o Diffie-Hellman groups: none Wouters Expires May 23, 2020 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Deprecation of IKEv1 and some algorithms November 2019 5. Security Considerations There are only security benefits by deprecating IKEv1 for IKEv2. The deprecated algorithms have long been in disuse and are no longer actively deployed or researched. It presents an unknown security risk that is best avoided. Additionally, these algorithms not being supported in implementations simplifies those implementations and reduces the accidental use of these deprecated algorithms through misconfiguration or downgrade attacks. 6. IANA Considerations This document instructs IANA to mark all IKEv1 registries as DEPRECATED. Additionally, this document instructs IANA to add an additional Status column to the IKEv2 Transform Type registries and mark the following entries as DEPRECATED: Transform Type 1 - Encryption Algorithm IDs Number Name Status ------ --------------- ------ 1 ENCR_DES_IV64 DEPRECATED [this document] 2 ENCR_DES DEPRECATED [RFC8247] 4 ENCR_RC5 DEPRECATED [this document] 5 ENCR_IDEA DEPRECATED [this document] 6 ENCR_CAST DEPRECATED [this document] 7 ENCR_BLOWFISH DEPRECATED [this document] 8 ENCR_3IDEA DEPRECATED [this document] 9 ENCR_DES_IV32 DEPRECATED [this document] Figure 1 Transform Type 2 - Pseudorandom Function Transform IDs Number Name Status ------ ------------ ---------- 1 PRF_HMAC_MD5 DEPRECATED [RFC8247] 1 PRF_HMAC_TIGER DEPRECATED [this document] Figure 2 Wouters Expires May 23, 2020 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Deprecation of IKEv1 and some algorithms November 2019 Transform Type 3 - Integrity Algorithm Transform IDs Number Name Status ------ ----------------- ---------- 1 AUTH_HMAC_MD5_96 DEPRECATED [RFC8247] 3 AUTH_DES_MAC DEPRECATED [RFC8247] 4 AUTH_KPDK_MD5 DEPRECATED [RFC8247] 6 AUTH_HMAC_MD5_128 DEPRECATED [this document] 7 AUTH_HMAC_SHA1_160 DEPRECATED [this document] Figure 3 Transform Type 4 - Diffie Hellman Group Transform IDs Number Name Status ------ ---------------------------- ---------- 1 768-bit MODP Group DEPRECATED [RFC8247] 22 1024-bit MODP Group with 160-bit Prime Order Subgroup DEPRECATED [RFC8247] Figure 4 All entries not mentioned here should receive no value in the new Status field. This document instructs IANA to close and mark as obsolete the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) Attributes registries as well as the "Magic Numbers" for ISAKMP Protocol registries. 7. References 7.1.
