1.  Introduction

   QUIC [I-D.tsvwg-quic-protocol] [I-D.hamilton-quic-transport-protocol] provides a multiplexed
   transport for HTTP [RFC7230] semantics that provides several key
   advantages over HTTP/1.1 [RFC7230] or HTTP/2 [RFC7540] over TCP
   [RFC0793].

   The custom security protocol designed for

   This document describes how QUIC can be secured using Transport Layer
   Security (TLS) version 1.3 [I-D.ietf-tls-tls13].  TLS 1.3 provides
   critical latency improvements for connection establishment. establishment over
   previous versions.  Absent packet loss, most new connections can be
   established with and secured within a single round trip; on subsequent
   connections between the same client and server, the client can often
   send application data immediately, that is, zero round trip setup.  TLS 1.3 uses a similar design and aims to provide
   the same set of improvements.

   This document describes how the standardized TLS 1.3 might serve as can act a
   security layer for component of QUIC.  The same design could work for TLS 1.2,
   though few of the benefits QUIC provides would be realized due to the
   handshake latency in versions of TLS prior to 1.3.

   Alternative Designs:  There are other designs that are possible; and
      many of these alternative designs are likely to be equally good.
      The point of this document is to articulate a coherent single
      design.  Notes like this throughout the document are used describe
      points where alternatives were considered.

   Note:  This is a rough draft.  Many details have not been ironed out.
      Ryan is not responsible for any errors or omissions.

1.1.  Notational Conventions

   The words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "SHOULD", and "MAY" are used in this
   document.  It's not shouting; when they are capitalized, they have
   the special meaning defined in [RFC2119].

2.  Protocol Overview

   QUIC [I-D.tsvwg-quic-protocol] [I-D.hamilton-quic-transport-protocol] can be separated into
   several modules:

   1.  The basic frame envelope describes the common packet layout.
       This layer includes connection identification, version
       negotiation, and includes the indicators markers that allow the framing,
       public reset, framing and FEC modules
       public reset to be identified.

   2.  The public reset is an unprotected frame packet that allows an
       intermediary (an entity that is not part of the security context)
       to request the termination of a QUIC connection.

   3.  The forward error correction (FEC) module provides redundant
       entropy that allows for  Version negotiation frames are used to be repaired in event agree on a common version
       of loss. QUIC to use.

   4.  Framing comprises most of the QUIC protocol.  Framing provides a
       number of different types of frame, each with a specific purpose.
       Framing supports frames for both congestion management and stream
       multiplexing.  Framing additionally provides a liveness testing
       capability (the PING frame).

   5.  Crypto  Encryption provides confidentiality and integrity protection for
       frames.  All frames are protected after based on keying material
       derived from the handshake completes TLS connection running on stream 1.  Prior to
       this, data is protected with the 0-RTT keys.

   6.  Multiplexed streams are the primary payload of QUIC.  These
       provide reliable, in-order delivery of data and are used to carry
       the encryption handshake and transport parameters (stream 1),
       HTTP header fields (stream 3), and HTTP requests and responses.

       Frames for managing multiplexing include those for creating and
       destroying streams as well as flow control and priority frames.

   7.  Congestion management includes packet acknowledgment and other
       signal required to ensure effective use of available link
       capacity.

   8.  A complete TLS connection is run on stream 1.  This includes the
       entire TLS record layer.  As the TLS connection reaches certain
       states, keying material is provided to the QUIC encryption layer
       for protecting the remainder of the QUIC traffic.

   9.  HTTP mapping provides an adaptation to HTTP that is based on
       HTTP/2.

   The relative relationship of these components are pictorally
   represented in Figure 1.

   This document describes a replacement of defines the cryptographic parts of QUIC.  This includes
   the handshake messages that are exchanged on stream 1, plus the
   record protection that is used to encrypt and authenticate all other
   frames.

2.1.  Handshake Overview

   TLS 1.3 provides two basic handshake modes of interest to QUIC:

   o  A full handshake in which the client is able to send application
      data after one round trip and the server immediately after
      receiving the first message from the client.

   o  A 0-RTT handshake in which the client uses information about the
      server to send immediately.  This data can be replayed by an
      attacker so it MUST NOT carry a self-contained trigger for any
      non-idempotent action.

   A simplified TLS 1.3 handshake with 0-RTT application data is shown
   in Figure 2, see [I-D.ietf-tls-tls13] for more options. options and details.

       Client                                             Server

       ClientHello
      (Finished)
      (0-RTT Application Data)
      (end_of_early_data)        -------->
                                                     ServerHello
                                            {EncryptedExtensions}
                                            {ServerConfiguration}
                                                    {Certificate}
                                              {CertificateVerify}
                                                       {Finished}
                                <--------      [Application Data]
      {Finished}                -------->

      [Application Data]        <------->      [Application Data]

                    Figure 2: TLS Handshake with 0-RTT

   Two additional variations on this basic handshake exchange are
   relevant to this document:

   o  The server can respond to a ClientHello with a HelloRetryRequest,
      which adds an additional round trip prior to the basic exchange.
      This is needed if the server wishes to request a different key
      exchange key from the client.  HelloRetryRequest might is also be used to
      verify that the client is correctly able to receive packets on the
      address it claims to have (see Section 4.2). 6.3).

   o  A pre-shared key mode can be used for subsequent handshakes to
      avoid public key operations.  This might be is the basis for 0-RTT, 0-RTT data,
      even if the remainder of the connection is protected by a new
      Diffie-Hellman exchange.

3.  QUIC over  TLS Structure in Stream 1

   QUIC completes its cryptographic handshake on stream 1, which means
   that the negotiation of keying material happens within after the QUIC
   protocol.  QUIC over TLS does the same, relying on
   protocol has started.  This simplifies the ordered
   delivery guarantees provided by use of TLS since QUIC is
   able to ensure that the TLS handshake packets are delivered reliably
   and in order.

      +-----+---------+
      | TLS |  HTTP   |
      +-----+----------+------------+
      |    Streams     | Congestion |
      +----------------+------------+
      |          Frames             |
      |                +------------+
      |                |    FEC     +--------+
      |     +----------+------------+ Public |
      |     | TLS Record Protection | Reset  |
      +-----+-----------------------+--------+
      |               Envelope               |
      +--------------------------------------+

      +--------------------------------------+

                          Figure 3: QUIC over TLS

   In this design the

   QUIC envelope Stream 1 carries QUIC frames until the a complete TLS
   handshake completes.  After the handshake successfully completes connection.  This includes the
   key exchange, QUIC frames are then protected by
   TLS record
   protection.

   QUIC stream 1 is used to exchange TLS handshake packets. layer in its entirety.  QUIC provides for reliable and in-order in-
   order delivery of the TLS handshake
   messages. messages on this stream.

   Prior to the completion of the TLS handshake, QUIC frames can be
   exchanged.  However, these frames are not authenticated or
   confidentiality protected.  Section 6 5 covers some of the implications
   of this design.

   Alternative Design:  TLS could be used to protect the entire design and limitations on QUIC
      envelope. operation during this phase.

   Once complete, QUIC version negotiation could be subsumed by TLS and
      ALPN [RFC7301].  The only unprotected packets frames are then public
      resets and ACK frames, both of which could be given first octet
      values that would easily distinguish them from other TLS packets.
      This requires that the protected using QUIC sequence numbers be moved to the
      outside of the record. record
   protection, see Section 4.  Mapping of QUIC to QUIC over TLS

   Several changes to the structure

3.1.  Handshake and Setup Sequence

   The integration of QUIC are necessary to make with a
   layered design practical.

   These changes produce the TLS handshake is shown in more detail
   in Figure 4.  In this
   handshake, 3.  QUIC STREAM "STREAM" frames on stream 1 carry the TLS
   handshake.  QUIC is responsible for ensuring that the handshake
   packets are re-
   sent re-sent in case of loss and that they can be ordered
   correctly.

   QUIC operates without any record protection until the handshake
   completes, just as TLS over TCP does not include record protection
   for the handshake messages.  Once complete, QUIC frames and forward
   error control (FEC) messages are encapsulated in using TLS record
   protection.

4.1.  Protocol and Version Negotiation

   The QUIC version negotiation mechanism TLS
      Handshake keys.

   If 0-RTT is used to negotiate not possible, then the
   version of QUIC that is used prior to client does not send frames
   protected by the completion of 0-RTT key (@B).  The only key transition on the
   handshake.  However, this packet
   client is from cleartext (@A) to 1-RTT protection (@C).

   If 0-RTT data is not authenticated, enabling an
   active attacker accepted by the server, then the server sends
   its handshake messages without protection (@A).  The client still
   transitions from @A to force a version downgrade.

   To ensure that @B, but it can stop sending 0-RTT data and
   progress immediately to 1-RTT data when it receives a cleartext
   ServerHello.

4.  QUIC version downgrade Record Protection

   QUIC provides a record protection layer that is not forced responsible for
   authenticated encryption of packets.  The record protection layer
   uses keys provided by an attacker,
   version information is copied into the TLS handshake, which provides connection and authenticated encryption
   to provide confidentiality and integrity protection for the content
   of packets.

   Different keys are used for QUIC negotiation. and TLS record protection.  Having
   separate QUIC and TLS record protection means that TLS records can be
   protected by two different keys.  This doesn't prevent
   version downgrade during redundancy is maintained for
   the handshake, though it does prevent a
   connection from completing with a downgraded version, see
   Section 6.1.

   ISSUE: sake of simplicity.

4.1.  Key Phases

   The transition to use of a new QUIC version negotiation has poor performance in key occurs immediately after
   sending the
      event TLS handshake messages that produced the key transition.
   Every time that a client new set of keys is forced to downgrade from their preferred
      version.

4.2.  Source Address Validation

   QUIC implementations describe a source address token.  This used for protecting outbound
   messages, the KEY_PHASE bit in the public flags is an
   opaque blob that a server provides to clients when they first use a
   given source address. toggled.  The client returns this token in subsequent
   KEY_PHASE bit on unencrypted messages as a return routeability check.  That is, the client returns
   this token to prove that it is able to receive packets at 0.

   The KEY_PHASE bit on the source
   address that it claims.

   Since this token public flags is opaque and consumed only by the server, it can be
   included most significant bit
   (0x80).

   The KEY_PHASE bit allows a recipient to detect a change in keying
   material without needing to receive the TLS 1.3 configuration identifier for 0-RTT
   handshakes.  Servers message that use 0-RTT triggers the
   change.  This avoids head-of-line blocking around transitions between
   keys without relying on trial decryption.

   The following transitions are advised defined:

   o  The client transitions to provide new
   configuration identifiers using 0-RTT keys after every handshake sending the
      ClientHello.  This causes the KEY_PHASE bit on packets sent by the
      client to avoid passive
   linkability of connections be set to 1.

   o  The server transitions to using 0-RTT keys before sending the
      ServerHello, but only if the early data from the same client.

   A server that client is under load might include
      accepted.  This transition causes the same information in KEY_PHASE bit on packets
      sent by the
   cookie extension/field of a HelloRetryRequest.  (Note: server to be set to 1.  If the current
   version of TLS 1.3 does not include server rejects 0-RTT
      data, the ability to include server's handshake messages are sent without QUIC-level
      record protection with a cookie
   in HelloRetryRequest.)

5.  Record Protection

   Each KEY_PHASE of 0.  TLS handshake messages
      will still be protected by TLS record is encapsulated in protection based on the QUIC envelope. TLS
      handshake traffic keys.

   o  The server transitions to using 1-RTT keys after sending its
      Finished message.  This provides
   length information, which means that causes the length field can KEY_PHASE bit to be dropped set to 0 if
      early data was accepted, and 1 if the server rejected early data.

   o  The client transitions to 1-RTT keys after sending its Finished
      message.  Subsequent messages from the client will then have a
      KEY_PHASE of 0 if 0-RTT data was sent, and 1 otherwise.

   o  Both peers start sending messages protected by a new key
      immediately after sending a TLS record. KeyUpdate message.  The sequence number value of
      the KEY_PHASE bit is changed each time.

   At each point, both keying material (see Section 4.2) and the AEAD
   function used by TLS record protection is changed to deal interchanged with the potential values that are
   currently in use for protecting outbound packets.  Once a change of
   keys has been made, packets to be dropped or lost.  The QUIC with higher sequence number numbers MUST use the
   new keying material until a newer set of keys (and AEAD) are used.
   The exception to this is used in place that retransmissions of the monotonically increasing TLS
   record sequence number.  This means handshake
   packets MUST use the keys that they were originally protected with.

   Once a packet protected by a new key has been received, a recipient
   SHOULD retain the TLS record protection
   employed is closer previous keys for a short period.  Retaining old
   keys allows the recipient to DTLS decode reordered packets around a change
   in both its form and the guarantees that
   are provided.

   QUIC keys.  Keys SHOULD be discarded when an endpoints has a single, contiguous sequence number space.  In comparison,
   TLS restarts its received all
   packets with sequence number each time that record protection
   keys are changed.  The numbers lower than the lowest sequence number restart in TLS ensures
   used for the new key, or when it determines that a
   compromise reordering of the current traffic those
   packets is unlikely.  0-RTT keys SHOULD be retained until the
   handshake is complete.

   The KEY_PHASE bit does not allow an attacker to
   truncate the directly indicate which keys are in use.
   Depending on whether 0-RTT data that is was sent after a key update by sending

   different KEY_PHASE values.

4.1.1.  Retransmission of TLS Handshake Messages

   TLS handshake messages need to be
   discarded). retransmitted with the same level
   of cryptographic protection that was originally used to protect them.
   Newer keys cannot be used to protect QUIC does not rely on there being packets that carry TLS
   messages.

   A client would be unable to decrypt retransmissions of a continuous sequence server's
   handshake messages that are protected using the 1-RTT keys, since the
   calculation of the application data packets; QUIC uses authenticated repair mechansims
   that operate above keys depends on the layer contents of encryption.  QUIC can therefore
   operate without restarting sequence numbers.

5.1.  TLS Handshake Encryption

   TLS 1.3 adds encryption for
   the handshake messages.

   This introduces an
   additional transition between different record protection keys during restriction means the handshake.  A consequence creation of this is that it becomes more
   important an exception to explicitly identify the transition from one set of
   requirement to always use new keys for sending once they are
   available.  A server MUST mark the retransmitted handshake messages
   with the same KEY_PHASE as the original messages to allow a recipient
   to distinguish the next (see Section 5.2).

5.2. messages.

4.1.2.  Key Update

   Each time that

   Once the TLS record protection keys are changed, handshake is complete, the KEY_PHASE bit allows for the
   processing of messages without having to receive the TLS KeyUpdate
   message initiating that triggers the change could be lost. key update.  This results in
   subsequent packets being indecipherable allows endpoints to start
   using updated keys immediately without the peer concern that receives
   them.  Key changes happen a lost
   KeyUpdate will cause their messages to be indecipherable to their
   peer..

   An endpoint MUST NOT initiate more than one key update at a time.  A
   new key update cannot be sent until the conclusion of the handshake and and
   immediately after endpoint has received a
   matching KeyUpdate message.

   TLS relies on message from its peer; or, if the endpoint did not
   initiate the original key update, it has received an ordered, reliable transport and therefore provides
   no other mechanism acknowledgment
   of its own KeyUpdate.

   This ensures that there are at most two keys to ensure distinguish between
   at any one time, for which the KEY_PHASE bit is sufficient.

      Initiating Peer                    Responding Peer

   @M KeyUpdate
                       New Keys -> @N
   @N QUIC Frames
                         -------->
                                               KeyUpdate @N
                         <--------
     -- Initiating Peer can initiate another KeyUpdate --
    @N Acknowledgment
                         -------->
     -- Responding Peer can initiate another KeyUpdate --

                           Figure 4: Key Update

   As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, there is never a situation where
   there are more than two different sets of keying material that might
   be received by a peer receives the message
   initiating peer.

   A server cannot initiate a key change prior to receiving update until it has received the subsequent messages
   that are
   client's Finished message.  Otherwise, packets protected using by the new key.
   updated keys could be confused for retransmissions of handshake
   messages.  A similar mechanism here would
   introduce head-of-line blocking.

   The simplest solution here is to steal client cannot initiate a single bit from key update until it has
   received an acknowledgment that its Finished message has been
   received.

   Note:  This models the
   unprotected part of key changes in the QUIC header that signals handshake as a key updates, similar
   to how DTLS signals update
      initiated by the epoch on each packet.  The epoch bit is
   encoded into 0x80 of server, with the QUIC public flags.

   Each time Finished message in the epoch bit changes, an attempt is made to update place of
      KeyUpdate.

4.2.  QUIC Key Expansion

   The following table shows QUIC keys, when they are generated and the
   TLS secret from which they are derived:

       +-------+----------------------+----------------------------+
       | Key   | TLS Secret           | Phase                      |
       +-------+----------------------+----------------------------+
       | 0-RTT | early_traffic_secret | "QUIC 0-RTT key expansion" |
       |       |                      |                            |
       | 1-RTT | traffic_secret_N     | "QUIC 1-RTT key expansion" |
       +-------+----------------------+----------------------------+

   0-RTT keys are those keys that are used in resumed connections prior
   to read.  Peers the completion of the TLS handshake.  Data sent using 0-RTT keys
   might be replayed and so has some restrictions on its use, see
   Section 5.2.  0-RTT keys are prohibited from used after sending or receiving a
   ClientHello.

   1-RTT keys are used after the TLS handshake completes.  There are
   potentially multiple sets of 1-RTT keys; new 1-RTT keys are created
   by sending a TLS KeyUpdate messages until they see message.  1-RTT keys are used after
   sending a reciprocal Finished or KeyUpdate to prevent message.

   The complete key expansion uses the chance that a transition is undetected same process for key expansion as a result
   defined in Section 7.3 of two changes [I-D.ietf-tls-tls13].  For example, the
   Client Write Key for the data sent immediately after sending the TLS
   Finished message is:

      label = "QUIC 1-RTT key expansion, client write key"
      client_write = HKDF-Expand-Label(traffic_secret_0, label,
                                       "", key_length)

   This results in this bit. a label input to HKDF that includes a two-octet
   length field, the string "TLS 1.3, QUIC 1-RTT key expansion, client
   write key" and a zero octet.

   The transition QUIC record protection initially starts without keying material.
   When the TLS state machine produces the corresponding secret, new
   keys are generated from cleartext the TLS connection and used to encrypted packets protect the
   QUIC record protection.

   The Authentication Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) [RFC5116]
   function used is exempt from
   this limit of the same one key change.  Two key changes occur during that is negotiated for use with the
   handshake.  The server sends packets in TLS
   connection.  For example, if TLS is using the clear, plus
   TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256, the AEAD_AES_128_GCM
   function is used.

4.3.  QUIC AEAD application

   Regular QUIC packets are protected using handshake by an AEAD [RFC5116].  Version
   negotiation and application data keys.  With only public reset packets are not protected.

   Once TLS has provided a
   single bit available to discriminate between keys, key, the contents of regular QUIC packets
   immediately after any TLS messages have been sent are protected
   with by
   the application data keys will have AEAD selected by TLS.

   The key, K, for the same bit value AEAD is either the Client Write Key or the Server
   Write Key, derived as
   cleartext packets.  This condition will be easily identified and
   handled, likely defined in Section 4.2.

   The nonce, N, for the AEAD is formed by discarding combining either the application Client
   Write IV or Server Write IV with the sequence numbers.  The 48 bits
   of the reconstructed QUIC sequence number (see Section 4.4) in
   network byte order is left-padded with zeros to the N_MAX parameter
   of the AEAD (see Section 4 of [RFC5116]).  The exclusive OR of the
   padded sequence number and the IV forms the AEAD nonce.

   The associated data, since A, for the
   encrypted packets will be highly unlikely AEAD is an empty sequence.

   The input plaintext, P, for the AEAD is the contents of the QUIC
   frame following the packet number, as described in
   [I-D.hamilton-quic-transport-protocol]

   The output ciphertext, C, of the AEAD is transmitted in place of P.

   Prior to TLS providing keys, no record protection is performed and
   the plaintext, P, is transmitted unmodified.

   Note:  QUIC defined a null-encryption that had an additional, hash-
      based checksum for cleartext packets.  This might be valid.

5.3. added here,
      but it is more complex.

4.4.  Sequence Number Reconstruction

   Each peer maintains a 48-bit send sequence number that is incremented with each
   every packet that is sent (even retransmissions). sent, including retransmissions.  The least
   significant 8-, 16-, 32-, or 48-bits of this number is encoded in the
   QUIC sequence number field in every packet.

   A 16-bit send epoch
   number is maintained; the epoch is incremented each time new record
   protection keying material is used.  The least significant bit of the
   epoch number is encoded into the epoch bit (0x80) of the QUIC public
   flags.

   A receiver maintains the same values, but recovers values based on
   the packets it receives.  This is based on the sequence number of
   packets that it has received.  A simple scheme predicts the receive
   sequence number of an incoming packet by incrementing the sequence
   number of the most recent packet to be successfully decrypted by one
   and expecting the sequence number to be within a range centered on
   that value.  The receive epoch value is incremented each time that
   the epoch bit (0x80) changes.

   The sequence number used for record protection is

   A more sophisticated algorithm can almost double the 64-bit value
   obtained search space by concatenating
   checking backwards from the epoch and most recent sequence number, both in
   network byte order.

5.4.  Alternative Design: Exporters

   An exporter could be used to provide keying material for a QUIC-
   specific record protection.  This could draw on the selected cipher
   suite and received (or
   abandoned) packet.  If a packet was received, then the TLS record protection design so packet
   contains a sequence number that the overall effort
   required to design and analyze is kept minimal.

   One concern with using exporters greater than the most recent
   sequence number.  If no such packet was found, the number is that TLS doesn't define an
   exporter for use prior assumed
   to be in the end of smaller window centered on the handshake.  That means next sequence number, as
   in the
   creation of simpler scheme.

   Note:  QUIC has a special exporter for use single, contiguous sequence number space.  In
      comparison, TLS restarts its sequence number each time that record
      protection keys are changed.  The sequence number restart in protecting 0-RTT data.
   That's a pretty sharp object to leave lying around, and it's not
   clear what the properties we could provide.  (That doesn't mean TLS
      ensures that
   there wouldn't be demand for such a thing, compromise of the possibility has
   already been raised.)

   An exporter-based scheme might opt current traffic keys does not
      allow an attacker to use truncate the handshake traffic
   keys data that is sent after a key
      update by sending additional packets under the old key (causing
      new packets to protect be discarded).  QUIC does not assume a reliable
      transport and is therefore required to handle attacks where
      packets during the handshake, relying instead on are dropped in other ways.  TLS maintains a separate protection
      sequence number that is used for record protection on the TLS handshake records.
      connection that is hosted on stream 1.  This complicates
   implementations somewhat, so an exporter might still be used.

   In the end, using an exporter doesn't alter the design significantly.
   Given the risks, a modification sequence number is
      reset according to the record protocol is probably
   safer.

6. rules in the TLS protocol.

5.  Pre-handshake QUIC Messages

   Implementations MUST NOT exchange data on any stream other than
   stream 1 prior to the completion of the TLS handshake completing. handshake.  However, QUIC
   requires the use of several types of frame for managing loss
   detection and recovery.  In addition, it might be useful to use the
   data acquired during the exchange of unauthenticated messages for
   congestion management.

   This section generally only applies to TLS handshake messages from
   both peers and acknowledgments of the packets carrying those
   messages.  In many cases, the need for servers to provide
   acknowledgments is minimal, since the messages that clients send are
   small and implicitly acknowledged by the server's responses.

   The actions that a peer takes as a result of receiving an
   unauthenticated packet needs tobe to be limited.  In particular, state
   established by these packets cannot be retained once record
   protection commences.

   There are several approaches possible for dealing with
   unauthenticated packets prior to handshake completion:

   o  discard and ignore them

   o  use them, but reset any state that is established once the
      handshake completes

   o  use them and authenticate them afterwards; failing the handshake
      if they can't be authenticated

   o  save them and use them when they can be properly authenticated

   o  treat them as a fatal error

   Different strategies are appropriate for different types of data.
   This document proposes that all strategies are possible depending on
   the type of message.

   o  Transport parameters and options are made usable and authenticated
      as part of the TLS handshake (see Section 6.1). 6.2).

   o  Most unprotected messages are treated as fatal errors when
      received except for the small number necessary to permit the
      handshake to complete (see Section 6.2). 5.1).

   o  Protected packets can either be discarded, but can be discarded or saved and later used
      (see Section 6.3).

6.1.  QUIC Extension

   A client describes characteristics of the transport protocol it
   intends to conduct with the server in a new QUIC-specific extension
   in its ClientHello.  The server uses this information to determine
   whether it wants to continue the connection, request source address
   validation, or reject the connection.  Having this information
   unencrypted permits this check to occur prior to committing the
   resources needed to complete the initial key exchange.

   If the server decides to complete the connection, it generates a
   corresponding response and includes it in the EncryptedExtensions
   message.

   These parameters are not confidentiality-protected when sent by the
   client, but the server response is protected by the handshake traffic
   keys.  The entire exchange is integrity protected once the handshake
   completes.

   This information is not used by TLS, but can be passed to the QUIC
   protocol as initialization parmeters.

   The "quic_parameters" extension contains a declarative set of
   parameters that establish QUIC operating parameters and constrain the
   behaviour of a peer.  The connection identifier and version are first
   negotiated using QUIC, and are included in the TLS handshake in order
   to provide integrity protection.

      enum {
          receive_buffer(0),
          (65535)
      } QuicTransportParameterType;

      struct {
          QuicTransportParameterType type;
          uint32 value;
      } QuicTransportParameter;

      uint32 QuicVersion;

      enum {
          (65535)
      } QuicOption;

      struct {
          uint64 connection_id;
          QuicVersion quic_version;
          QuicVersion supported_quic_versions<0..2^8-1>;
          uint32 connection_initial_window;
          uint32 stream_initial_window;
          uint32 implicit_shutdown_timeout;
          QuicTransportParameter transport_parameters<0..2^16-1>;
          QuicOption options<0..2^8-2>;
      } QuicParametersExtension;

   This extension MUST be included if a QUIC version is negotiated.  A
   server MUST NOT negotiate QUIC if this extension is not present.

   Based on the values offered by a client a server MAY use the values
   in this extension to determine whether it wants to continue the
   connection, request source address validation, or reject the
   connection.  Since this extension is initially unencrypted, the
   server can use the information prior to committing the resources
   needed to complete a key exchange.

   If the server decides to use QUIC, this extension MUST be included in
   the EncryptedExtensions message.

   The parameters are:

   connection_id:  The 64-bit connection identifier for the connection,
      as selected by the client.

   quic_version:  The currently selected QUIC version that is used for
      the connection.  This is the version negotiated using the
      unauthenticated QUIC version negotiation (Section 4.1).

   supported_quic_versions:  This is a list of supported QUIC versions
      for each peer.  A client sends an empty list if the version of
      QUIC being used is their preferred version; however, a client MUST
      include their preferred version if this was not negotiated using
      QUIC version negotiation.  A server MUST include all versions that
      it supports in this list.

   connection_initial_window:  The initial value for the connection flow
      control window for the endpoint, in octets.

   connection_initial_window:  The initial value for the flow control
      window of new streams created by the peer endpoint, in octets.

   implicit_shutdown_timeout:  The time, in seconds, that a connection
      can remain idle before being implicitly shutdown.

   transport_parameters:  A list of parameters for the QUIC connection,
      expressed as key-value pairs of arbitrary length.  The
      QuicTransportParameterType identifies each parameter; duplicate
      types are not permitted and MUST be rejected with a fatal
      illegal_parameter alert.  Type values are taken from a single
      space that is shared by all QUIC versions.

      ISSUE:  There is currently no way to update the value of
         parameters once the connection has started.  QUIC crypto
         provided a SCFG message that could be sent after the connection
         was established.

   options:  A list of options that can be negotiated for a given
      connection.  These are set during the initial handshake and are
      fixed thereafter.  These options are used to enable or disable
      optional features in the protocol.  The set of features that are
      supported across different versions might vary.  A client SHOULD
      include all options that it is willing to use.  The server MAY
      select any subset of those options that apply to the version of
      QUIC that it selects.  Only those options selected by the server
      are available for use.

      Note:  This sort of optional behaviour seems like it could be
         accommodated adequately by defining new versions of QUIC for
         each experiment.  However, as an evolving protocol, multiple
         experiments need to be conducted concurrently and continuously.
         The options parameter provides a flexible way to regulate which
         experiments are enabled on a per-connection basis.

5.1.  Unprotected Frames Prior to Handshake Completion

   This section describes the handling of messages that are sent and
   received prior to the completion of the TLS handshake.

   Sending and receiving unprotected messages is hazardous.  Unless
   expressly permitted, receipt of an unprotected message of any kind
   MUST be treated as a fatal error.

6.2.1.

5.1.1.  STREAM Frames

   "STREAM" frames for stream 1 are permitted.  These carry the TLS
   handshake messages.

   Receiving unprotected "STREAM" frames that do not contain TLS
   handshake messages for other streams MUST be
   treated as a fatal error.

6.2.2.

5.1.2.  ACK Frames

   "ACK" frames are permitted prior to the handshake being complete.
   However, an unauthenticated
   Information learned from "ACK" frame can only be used to obtain
   NACK ranges.  Timestamps MUST NOT frames cannot be included in an unprotected ACK
   frame, entirely relied upon,
   since these might be modified by an attacker with the intent
   of altering congestion control response.  Information on FEC-revived
   packets is redundant, since use of FEC in this phase is prohibited. able to inject these packets.  Timing and packet
   retransmission information from "ACK" frames MAY be sent a second time once record protection is
   enabled.  Once protected, timestamps can be included.

   Editor's Note:  This prohibition critical to the
   functioning of the protocol, but these frames might be a little too strong, but
      this is the spoofed or
   altered.

   Endpoints MUST NOT use an unprotected "ACK" frame to acknowledge data
   that was protected by 0-RTT or 1-RTT keys.  An endpoint MUST ignore
   an unprotected "ACK" frame if it claims to acknowledge data that was
   protected data.  Such an acknowledgement can only obviously safe option.  If the amount serve as a denial
   of damage
      that service, since an attacker endpoint that can do by modifying timestamps read protected data is limited, then
      it might be OK always
   permitted to permit send protected data.

   An endpoint SHOULD use data from unprotected or 0-RTT-protected "ACK"
   frames only during the inclusion of timestamps.  Note that
      an attacker need not initial handshake and while they have
   insufficient information from 1-RTT-protected "ACK" frames.  Once
   sufficient information has been obtained from protected messages,
   information obtained from less reliable sources can be on-path to inject an ACK.

6.2.3. discarded.

5.1.3.  WINDOW_UPDATE Frames

   Sending a

   "WINDOW_UPDATE" frames MUST NOT be sent unprotected.

   Though data is exchanged on stream 1 might be necessary 1, the initial flow control window
   is is sufficiently large to permit allow the completion TLS handshake to complete.
   This limits the maximum size of the TLS handshake, particularly in cases where the
   certification path is lengthy.  To avoid stalling due to flow control
   exhaustion, "WINDOW_UPDATE" frames with stream 1 are permitted.

   Receiving a "WINDOW_UPDATE" frame on streams other than 1 MUST be
   treated as handshake and would prevent a fatal error.
   server or client from using an abnormally large certificate chain.

   Stream 1 is exempt from the connection-level flow control window.

   The position

5.1.4.  Denial of Service with Unprotected Packets

   Accepting unprotected - specifically unauthenticated - packets
   presents a denial of service risk to endpoints.  An attacker that is
   able to inject unprotected packets can cause a recipient to drop even
   protected packets with a matching sequence number.  The spurious
   packet shadows the flow control window genuine packet, causing the genuine packet to be
   ignored as redundant.

   Once the TLS handshake is complete, both peers MUST ignore
   unprotected packets.  The handshake is complete when the server
   receives a client's Finished message and when a client receives an
   acknowledgement that their Finished message was received.  From that
   point onward, unprotected messages can be reset safely dropped.  Note that
   the client could retransmit its Finished message to defaults
   once the server, so
   the server cannot reject such a message.

   Since only TLS handshake packets and acknowledgments are sent in the
   clear, an attacker is complete. able to force implementations to rely on
   retransmission for packets that are lost or shadowed.  Thus, an
   attacker that intends to deny service to an endpoint has to drop or
   shadow protected packets in order to ensure that their victim
   continues to accept unprotected packets.  The ability to shadow
   packets means that an attacker does not need to be on path.

   ISSUE:  This might result would not be an issue if QUIC had a randomized starting
      sequence number.  If we choose to randomize, we fix this problem
      and reduce the denial of service exposure to on-path attackers.
      The only possible problem is in authenticating the window
   position initial value,
      so that peers can be sure that they haven't missed an initial
      message.

   In addition to denying endpoints messages, an attacker to generate
   packets that cause no state change in a recipient.  See Section 7.2
   for either a discussion of these risks.

   To avoid receiving TLS packets that contain no useful data, a TLS
   implementation MUST reject empty TLS handshake records and any record
   that is not permitted by the connection TLS state machine.  Any TLS application
   data or stream 1 being smaller alerts - other than a single end_of_early_data at the
   number
   appropriate time - that is received prior to the end of octets the handshake
   MUST be treated as a fatal error.

5.2.  Use of 0-RTT Keys

   If 0-RTT keys are available, the lack of replay protection means that have been sent
   restrictions on those streams.  A
   "WINDOW_UPDATE" frame might therefore be their use are necessary to prevent avoid replay attacks on
   the
   connection from being stalled.

   Note:  This is protocol.

   A client MUST only potentially problematic for servers, who might
      need use 0-RTT keys to send large certificate chains.  In other cases, this is
      unlikely given protect data that QUIC - like HTTP [RFC7230] - is a protocol
      where the server is unable idempotent.
   A client MAY wish to apply additional restrictions on what data it
   sends prior to exercise the opportunity completion of the TLS
      presents handshake.  A client
   otherwise treats 0-RTT keys as equivalent to send first.

      If 1-RTT keys.

   A client that receives an indication that its 0-RTT data has been
   accepted by a server can send 0-RTT data until it receives all of the
   server's handshake messages.  A client SHOULD stop sending 0-RTT data
   if it receives an indication that 0-RTT data has a large certificate chain, or later modifications
      or extensions been rejected.  In
   addition to QUIC permit the server a ServerHello without an early_data extension, an
   unprotected handshake message with a KEY_PHASE bit set to 0 indicates
   that 0-RTT data has been rejected.

   A client SHOULD send first, its end_of_early_data alert only after it has
   received all of the server's handshake messages.  Alternatively
   phrased, a client
      might reduce the chance of stalling due is encouraged to flow control in this
      first round trip by setting larger values for use 0-RTT keys until 1-RTT keys
   become available.  This prevents stalling of the initial stream
      and connection flow control windows and
   allows the client to send continuously.

   A server MUST NOT use 0-RTT keys to protect anything other than TLS
   handshake messages.  Servers therefore treat packets protected with
   0-RTT keys as equivalent to unprotected packets in determining what
   is permissible to send.  A server protects handshake messages using
   the "quic_parameters"
      extension (Section 6.1).

   Editor's Note:  Unlike "ACK", 0-RTT key if it decides to accept a 0-RTT key.  A server MUST
   still include the prohibition on "WINDOW_UPDATE" is
      much less of an imposition on implementations.  And, given that early_data extension in its ServerHello message.

   This restriction prevents a
      spurious "WINDOW_UPDATE" might be used server from responding to create a great deal of
      memory pressure on an endpoint, request using
   frames protected by the restriction seems justifiable.
      Besides, I understand 0-RTT keys.  This ensures that all
   application data from the server are always protected with keys that
   have forward secrecy.  However, this one a lot better.

6.2.4.  FEC Packets

   FEC packets MUST NOT results in head-of-line blocking
   at the client because server responses cannot be sent prior to completing decrypted until all
   the TLS handshake.
   Endpoints MUST treat receipt of an unprotected FEC packet as a fatal
   error.

6.3. server's handshake messages are received by the client.

5.3.  Protected Frames Prior to Handshake Completion

   Due to reordering and loss, protected packets might be received by an
   endpoint before the final handshake messages are received.  If these
   can be decrypted successfully, such packets MAY be stored and used
   once the handshake is complete.

   Unless expressly permitted below, encrypted packets MUST NOT be used
   prior to completing the TLS handshake, in particular the receipt of a
   valid Finished message and any authentication of the peer.  If
   packets are processed prior to completion of the handshake, an
   attacker might use the willingness of an implementation to use these
   packets to mount attacks.

   TLS handshake messages are covered by record protection during the
   handshake, once key agreement has completed.  This means that
   protected messages need to be decrypted to determine if they are TLS
   handshake messages or not.  Similarly, "ACK" and "WINDOW_UPDATE"
   frames might be needed to successfully complete the TLS handshake.

   Any timestamps present in "ACK" frames MUST be ignored rather than
   causing a fatal error.  Timestamps on protected frames MAY be saved
   and used once the TLS handshake completes successfully.

   An endpoint MUST MAY save the last protected "WINDOW_UPDATE" frame it
   receives for each stream and apply the values once the TLS handshake
   completes.

   Editor's Note:  Ugh.  This last one is pretty ugly.  Maybe we should
      just make  Failing to do this might result in temporary stalling of
   affected streams.

6.  QUIC-Specific Additions to the TLS Handshake

   QUIC uses the TLS handshake exempt from flow control up for more than just negotiation of
   cryptographic parameters.  The TLS handshake validates protocol
   version selection, provides preliminary values for QUIC transport
   parameters, and allows a server to perform return routeability checks
   on clients.

6.1.  Protocol and Version Negotiation

   The QUIC version negotiation mechanism is used to negotiate the
      Finished message.  Then we can prohibit unauthenticated
      "WINDOW_UPDATE" messages.  We would still likely want
   version of QUIC that is used prior to account
      for the packets sent and received, since completion of the
   handshake.  However, this packet is not authenticated, enabling an
   active attacker to do otherwise would
      create some hairy special cases.  That means force a version downgrade.

   To ensure that stalling a QUIC version downgrade is
      possible, but not forced by an attacker,
   version information is copied into the TLS handshake, which provides
   integrity protection for the QUIC negotiation.  This does not prevent
   version downgrade during the handshake, though it means that we can avoid ugly rules like such a
   downgrade causes a handshake failure.

   Protocols that use the
      above.

7.  Connection ID

   The QUIC connection transport MUST use Application Layer
   Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) [RFC7301].  The ALPN identifier serves for the
   protocol MUST be specific to identify the QUIC version that it operates over.
   When constructing a connection and to
   allow ClientHello, clients MUST include a server to resume list of all
   the ALPN identifiers that they support, regardless of whether the
   QUIC version that they have currently selected supports that
   protocol.

   Servers SHOULD select an existing connection from a new application protocol based solely on the
   information in the ClientHello, not using the QUIC version that the
   client
   address has selected.  If the protocol that is selected is not
   supported with the QUIC version that is in case of mobility events.  However, use, the server MUST
   either send a QUIC version negotiation packet if this creates is possible, or
   fail the connection otherwise.

6.2.  QUIC Extension

   QUIC defines an
   identifier that a passive observer [RFC7258] can extension for use to correlate
   connections. with TLS.  That extension defines
   transport-related parameters.  This provides integrity protection for
   these values.  Including these in the TLS 1.3 offers connection resumption using pre-shared keys, which handshake also allows make the
   values that a client sets available to send 0-RTT application data.  This mode could
   be used to continue a connection rather server one-round trip
   earlier than rely on a publicly
   visible correlator. parameters that are carried in QUIC frames.  This only requires
   document does not define that servers produce extension.

6.3.  Source Address Validation

   QUIC implementations describe a new
   ticket on every connection and source address token.  This is an
   opaque blob that a server might provide to clients do not resume from the
   same ticket more than once. when they first
   use a given source address.  The advantage of relying on 0-RTT modes for mobility events client returns this token in
   subsequent messages as a return routeability check.  That is, the
   client returns this token to prove that it is able to receive packets
   at the source address that
   this it claims.  This prevents the server from
   being used in packet reflection attacks (see Section 7.1).

   A source address token is also more robust.  If opaque and consumed only by the server.
   Therefore it can be included in the TLS 1.3 pre-shared key identifier
   for 0-RTT handshakes.  Servers that use 0-RTT are advised to provide
   new point pre-shared key identifiers after every handshake to avoid
   linkability of attachment results in
   contacting connections by passive observers.  Clients MUST use a
   new pre-shared key identifier for every connection that they
   initiate; if no pre-shared key identifier is available, then
   resumption is not possible.

   A server instance - one that lacks is under load might include a source address token in
   the session state -
   then cookie extension of a fallback HelloRetryRequest.  (Note: the current
   version of TLS 1.3 does not include the ability to include a cookie
   in HelloRetryRequest.)

6.4.  Priming 0-RTT

   QUIC uses TLS without modification.  Therefore, it is easy.

   The main drawback with possible to use
   a clean restart or anything resembling pre-shared key that was obtained in a
   restart is TLS connection over TCP to
   enable 0-RTT in QUIC.  Similarly, QUIC can provide a pre-shared key
   that accumulated state can be lost.  Aside from progress used to enable 0-RTT in TCP.

   All the restrictions on incomplete requests, the state use of 0-RTT apply, and the HPACK header compression
   table could certificate
   MUST be quite valuable.  Existing QUIC implementations considered valid for both connections, which will use
   different protocol stacks and could use different port numbers.  For
   instance, HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 operate over TLS and TCP, whereas QUIC
   operates over UDP.

   Source address validation is not completely portable between
   different protocol stacks.  Even if the
   connection ID to route packets to source IP address remains
   constant, the server that port number is handling the
   connection, which avoids likely to be different.  Packet
   reflection attacks are still possible in this sort situation, though the
   set of problem. hosts that can initiate these attacks is greatly reduced.  A lightweight state resurrection extension
   server might be used choose to avoid
   having source address validation for such a
   connection, or allow an increase to recreate any expensive state.

8. the amount of data that it sends
   toward the client without source validation.

7.  Security Considerations

   There are likely to be some real clangers here eventually, but the
   current set of issues is well captured in the relevant sections of
   the main text.

   Never assume that because it isn't in the security considerations
   section it doesn't affect security.  Most of this document does.

9.

7.1.  Packet Reflection Attack Mitigation

   A small ClientHello that results in a large block of handshake
   messages from a server can be used in packet reflection attacks to
   amplify the traffic generated by an attacker.

   Certificate caching [RFC7924] can reduce the size of the server's
   handshake messages significantly.

   A client SHOULD also pad [RFC7685] its ClientHello to at least 1024
   octets (TODO: tune this value).  A server is less likely to generate
   a packet reflection attack if the data it sends is a small multiple
   of the data it receives.  A server SHOULD use a HelloRetryRequest if
   the size of the handshake messages it sends is likely to exceed the
   size of the ClientHello.

7.2.  Peer Denial of Service

   QUIC, TLS and HTTP/2 all contain a messages that have legitimate uses
   in some contexts, but that can be abused to cause a peer to expend
   processing resources without having any observable impact on the
   state of the connection.  If processing is disproportionately large
   in comparison to the observable effects on bandwidth or state, then
   this could allow a malicious peer to exhaust processing capacity
   without consequence.

   QUIC prohibits the sending of empty "STREAM" frames unless they are
   marked with the FIN bit.  This prevents "STREAM" frames from being
   sent that only waste effort.

   TLS records SHOULD always contain at least one octet of a handshake
   messages or alert.  Records containing only padding are permitted
   during the handshake, but an excessive number might be used to
   generate unnecessary work.  Once the TLS handshake is complete,
   endpoints SHOULD NOT send TLS application data records unless it is
   to hide the length of QUIC records.  QUIC packet protection does not
   include any allowance for padding; padded TLS application data
   records can be used to mask the length of QUIC frames.

   While there are legitimate uses for some redundant packets,
   implementations SHOULD track redundant packets and treat excessive
   volumes of any non-productive packets as indicative of an attack.
