Abstract The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) [1] provides a standard method for transporting multi-protocol datagrams over point-to-point links. PPP defines an extensible Link Control Protocol and a family of Network Con- trol Protocols (NCPs) for establishing and configuring different net- work-layer protocols. This document describes version two of Microsoft's PPP CHAP dialect (MS- CHAP-V2). MS-CHAP-V2 is similar to, but incompatible with, MS-CHAP ver- sion one (MS-CHAP-V1, described in [9]). In particular, certain proto- col fields have been deleted or reused but with different semantics. In addition, MS-CHAP-V2 features mutual authentication. The algorithms used in the generation of various MS-CHAP-V2 protocol Zorn [Page 1] INTERNET-DRAFT MS-CHAP-V2 July 1998 fields are described in an appendix. 3. Introduction Where possible, MS-CHAP-V2 is consistent with both MS-CHAP-V1 and stan- dard CHAP. Briefly, the differences between MS-CHAP-V2 and MS-CHAP-V1 are: * MS-CHAP-V2 is enabled by negotiating CHAP Algorithm 0x81 in LCP option 3, Authentication Protocol. * MS-CHAP-V2 provides mutual authentication between peers by piggybacking a peer challenge on the Response packet and an authenticator reponse on the Success packet. * The calculation of the "Windows NT compatible challenge response" sub-field in the Response packet has been changed to include the peer challenge and the user name. * In MS-CHAP-V1, the "LAN Manager compatible challenge response" sub-field was always sent in the Response packet. This field has been replaced in MS-CHAP-V2 by the Peer-Challenge field. * The format of the Message field in the Failure packet has been changed. * The Change Password (version 1) and Change Password (version 2) packets are no longer supported. They have been replaced with a single Change-Password packet. 4. Specification of Requirements In this document, the key words "MAY", "MUST, "MUST NOT", "optional", "recommended", "SHOULD", and "SHOULD NOT" are to be interpreted as described in [2]. 5. LCP Configuration The LCP configuration for MS-CHAP-V2 is identical to that for standard CHAP, except that the Algorithm field has value 0x81, rather than the MD5 value 0x05. PPP implementations which do not support MS-CHAP-V2, but correctly implement LCP Config-Rej, should have no problem dealing with this non-standard option. Zorn [Page 2] INTERNET-DRAFT MS-CHAP-V2 July 1998 6. Challenge Packet The MS-CHAP-V2 Challenge packet is identical in format to the standard CHAP Challenge packet. MS-CHAP-V2 authenticators send an 16-octet challenge Value field. Peers need not duplicate Microsoft's algorithm for selecting the 16-octet value, but the standard guidelines on randomness [1,2,7] SHOULD be observed. Microsoft authenticators do not currently provide information in the Name field. This may change in the future. 7. Response Packet The MS-CHAP-V2 Response packet is identical in format to the standard CHAP Response packet. However, the Value field is sub-formatted differ- ently as follows: 24 octets: Peer-Challenge 24 octets: NT-Response 1 octet : Flags The Peer-Challenge field is a 16-octet random number. As the name implies, it is generated by the peer and is used in the calculation of the NT-Response field, below. Peers need not duplicate Microsoft's algorithm for selecting the 16-octet value, but the standard guidelines on randomness [1,2,7] SHOULD be observed. The NT-Response field is an encoded function of the password, the user name, the contents of the Peer-Challenge field and the received chal- lenge as output by the routine GenerateNTResponse() (see section A.1, below). The Windows NT password is a string of 0 to (theoretically) 256 case-sensitive Unicode [8] characters. Current versions of Windows NT limit passwords to 14 characters, mainly for compatibility reasons; this may change in the future. When computing the NT-Response field con- tents, only the user name is used, without any associated Windows NT domain name. This is true regardless of whether a Windows NT domain name is present in the Name field (see below). The Flag field is reserved for future use and MUST be zero. The Name field is a string of 0 to (theoretically) 256 case-sensitive ASCII characters which identifies the peer's user account name. The Windows NT domain name may prefix the user's account name (e.g. "BIGCO\johndoe" where "BIGCO" is a Windows NT domain containing the user account "johndoe"). If a domain is not provided, the backslash should Zorn [Page 3] INTERNET-DRAFT MS-CHAP-V2 July 1998 also be omitted, (e.g. "johndoe"). 8. Success Packet The Success packet is identical in format to the standard CHAP Success packet. However, the Message field contains a 42-octet authenticator response string of the form "S=" where is a 20 octet number encoded in ASCII as 40 hexadec- imal digits. The hexadecimal digits A-F (if present) MUST be uppercase. This number is derived from the challenge from the Challenge packet, the Peer-Challenge and NT-Response fields from the Response packet, and the peer password as output by the routine GenerateAuthenticatorResponse() (see section A.6, below). The authenticating peer MUST verify the authenticator response when a Success packet is received. The method for verifying the authenticator is described in section A.7, below. If the authenticator response is either missing or incorrect, the peer MUST end the session. 9. Failure Packet The Failure packet is identical in format to the standard CHAP Failure packet. There is, however, formatted text stored in the Message field which, contrary to the standard CHAP rules, does affect the operation of the protocol. The Message field format is: "E=eeeeeeeeee R=r C=cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc V=vvvvvvvvvv" where The "eeeeeeeeee" is the ASCII representation of a decimal error code (need not be 10 digits) corresponding to one of those listed below, though implementations should deal with codes not on this list gracefully. 646 ERROR_RESTRICTED_LOGON_HOURS 647 ERROR_ACCT_DISABLED 648 ERROR_PASSWD_EXPIRED 649 ERROR_NO_DIALIN_PERMISSION 691 ERROR_AUTHENTICATION_FAILURE 709 ERROR_CHANGING_PASSWORD The "r" is an ASCII flag set to '1' if a retry is allowed, and '0' if not. When the authenticator sets this flag to '1' it disables Zorn [Page 4] INTERNET-DRAFT MS-CHAP-V2 July 1998 short timeouts, expecting the peer to prompt the user for new cre- dentials and resubmit the response. The "cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc" is the ASCII representation of a hexadecimal challenge value. This field MUST be exactly 32 octets long and MUST be present. The "vvvvvvvvvv" is the ASCII representation of a decimal version code (need not be 10 digits) indicating the password changing pro- tocol version supported on the server. For MS-CHAP-V2, this value SHOULD always be 3. Implementations should accept but ignore additional text they do not recognize. 10. Change-Password Packet The Change-Password packet does not appear in either standard CHAP or MS-CHAP-V1. It allows the peer to change the password on the account specified in the preceding Response packet. The Change-Password packet should be sent only if the authenticator reports ERROR_PASSWD_EXPIRED (E=648) in the Message field of the Failure packet. This packet type is supported by recent versions of Windows NT 4.0, Win- dows 95 and Windows 98. It is not supported by Windows NT 3.5, Windows NT 3.51, or early versions of Windows NT 4.0, Windows 95 and Windows 98. The format of this packet is as follows: 1 octet : Code 1 octet : Identifier 2 octets : Length 516 octets : Encrypted-Password 16 octets : Encrypted-Hash 24 octets : Peer-Challenge 24 octets : NT-Response 2-octet : Flags Code 7 Identifier The Identifier field is one octet and aids in matching requests and replies. The value is the Identifier of the received Failure packet to which this packet responds plus 1. Length Zorn [Page 5] INTERNET-DRAFT MS-CHAP-V2 July 1998 586 Encrypted-Password This field contains the PWBLOCK form of the new Windows NT pass- word encrypted with the old Windows NT password hash, as output by the NewPasswordEncryptedWithOldNtPasswordHash() routine (see sec- tion A.8, below). Encrypted-Hash This field contains the old Windows NT password hash encrypted with the new Windows NT password hash, as output by the OldNtPass- wordHashEncryptedWithNewNtPasswordHash() routine (see section A.11, below). Peer-Challenge A 16-octet random quantity, as described in the Response packet description. NT-Response The NT-Response field (as described in the Response packet description), but calculated on the new password and the challenge received in the Failure packet. Flags This field is two octets in length. It is a bit field of option flags where 0 is the least significant bit of the 16-bit quantity. The format of this field is illustrated in the following diagram: 1 5 4 3 2 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Bits 0-15 Reserved, always clear (0). 11. Security Considerations As an implementation detail, the authenticator SHOULD limit the number of password retries allowed to make brute-force password guessing attacks more difficult.

After the parity of the key has been fixed, every eighth bit is a parity bit and the number of bits that are set (1) in each octet is odd; i.e., odd parity. Note that many DES engines do not check parity, how- ever, simply stripping the parity bits. The following example illus- trates the values resulting from the use of the password "MyPw" to gen- erate a pair of DES keys (e.g., for use in the NtPasswordHashEncrypted- WithBlock() described in Appendix A.12). 0-to-256-unicode-char Password: 4D 79 50 77 16-octet PasswordHash: FC 15 6A F7 ED CD 6C 0E DD E3 33 7D 42 7F 4E AC First "raw" DES key (initial 7 octets of password hash): FC 15 6A F7 ED CD 6C First parity-corrected DES key (eight octets): FD 0B 5B 5E 7F 6E 34 D9 Second "raw" DES key (second 7 octets of password hash) 0E DD E3 33 7D 42 7F Second parity-corrected DES key (eight octets): 0E 6E 79 67 37 EA 08 FE Zorn [Page 17]
