I don't think swapping a passive attack for an active attack is trivial. After all, that's much of the premise of 7258. 2. It's not just a matter of "passive attack" but rather of the fact that SDES turns any logs/debugging/traffic monitoring/etc. that contains the SDP into toxic waste that has to be carefully guarded. > So if folks want to make a bigger, scarier warning label to put on SDES to > guide people away from it, sure, fine.

We all agree that (1) SDES is bad (2) We have better alternatives in the form of DTLS-SRTP and (eventually) MLS-SRTP. So, precisely what harm is it doing to tell people that and that they shouldn't use SDES in favor of that. "consternation" is not a real harm. -Ekr > --Richard > > On Tue, Jul 27, 2021 at 7:08 PM John Mattsson <john.mattsson= > 40ericsson.com@dmarc.ietf.org> wrote: > >> westhawk thp@westhawk.co.uk wrote: >> >> >> >> >> On 26 Jul 2021, at 23:30, Kirsty P <Kirsty.p=40ncsc.gov.uk@dmarc.ietf.org> <<Kirsty.p=40ncsc.gov.uk@dmarc.ietf.org>> >wrote: >> >> >> >> >> >> SDP Security Descriptions is NOT RECOMMENDED and Historic: consensus was >sub-optimal.
