Introduction • SIP authentication scheme • HTTP Digest authentication protocol • not providing security at an acceptable level. • S/MIME (Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) • user’s certificates • no consolidated authority • SIP over SSL (SIPL) • requires end user’s certificate • increase the workload of SIP proxy servers.
Introduction Fig. HTTP Digest authentication scheme for SIP-based service.
Motivation • HTTP Digest authentication protocolflaw • Lack of mutual authentication between the client and the server. • Previously configure password table, and it cannot apply todifferent network domains. • The header filed of SIP message. • Goal • No need any password table. • Achieves mutual authentication for communication parties with different SIP domains. • Change password quickly and securely.

Scheme - Mutual authentication and session key agreement public channel
Scheme - Password change Step 1: Compute Check equal: continue not equal: stop. Step 2: change password, enter new password and compute
Security analysis • Replay attack • Forgery attack • Offline password guessing attack • Man-in-the-middle attack • Insider attack • Signaling attack • Session key security • Known-key security • Perfect forward secrecy
Performance evaluation Table. The performance evolution of our scheme. Th: the time spent in simple hashing operation; Taec: the time spent in point addition of elliptic curve; Tmec: the time spent in scalar multiplication of elliptic curve.

Advantage vs. weakness • Advantage • Achieves mutual authentication and session key agreement. • Does not need to maintain any password or verification table in the server. • Prevents various possible attacks induced by open networks and the standard of SIP message. • Can be applied to authenticate the users with different SIP domains. • Provides users to update password quickly and securely. • Avoid key escrow problem. • Weakness • If user’s password is leaked and smart card loss, all stored in the smart card secret parameters are exposed.
Comment • This paper let SIP message achieve mutual authentication, but it is run between server and user, not end-to-end. • The header filed of SIP message contain some content of individuals or other confidential information. This paper dose not protect them, but [12] proposed the Integrity-Auth header to solve.
