A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Privacy Enhancements and Assessments Research Group RG of the IRTF. Title : Network-Based Website Fingerprinting Authors : Ian Goldberg Tao Wang Christopher A. Wood Filename : draft-irtf-pearg-website-fingerprinting-00.txt Pages : 21 Date : 2020-02-26 Abstract: The IETF is well on its way to protecting connection metadata with protocols such as DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS, and work-in- progress towards encrypting the TLS SNI. However, more work is needed to protect traffic metadata, especially in the context of web traffic. In this document, we survey Website Fingerprinting attacks, which are a class of attacks that use machine learning techniques to attack web privacy, and highlight metadata leaks used by said attacks. We also survey proposed mitigations for such leakage and discuss their applicability to IETF protocols such as TLS, QUIC, and HTTP. We endeavor to show that Website Fingerprinting attacks are a serious problem that affect all Internet users, and we pose open problems and directions for future research in this area. The IETF datatracker status page for this draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-pearg-website-fingerprinting/ There are also htmlized versions available at: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-irtf-pearg-website-fingerprinting-00 https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-irtf-pearg-website-fingerprinting-00 Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
