This way there no > "accidental" RTP connections. As Eric R. would probably tell you, you not only have to worry about bid-down attacks (and they're important), but also the "threat model" for rtcweb is that we don't trust: a) the JS application b) the service provider/website to maintain security and privacy for our conversation. The JS application may be malicious or may have been subverted without knowledge of the provider, or the provider may have been compromised (by an attacker or by legal force) even if they're not actively evil. If you mandate SRTP (and use DTLS-SRTP), then the application and the website never have access to the keys, and you have end-to-end security (modulo gateways). If you combine that with the identity mechanisms from ekr's draft/presentation at Taipei, and you have verified, no MITM, end-to-end encryption. (Without identity info, we have no way to detect a MITM attack, especially if brokered by the service provider.) Side note: SDES generally has the same problem; the JS app and service provider/website have access to the keys. (With some pain we might be able to encrypt the SDES keys themselves, but I'm not sure that's practical.) The "interop with legacy needs no SRTP or optional SRTP" argument fails if we have to go through a gateway to get to legacy equipment anyways. And though I've tried hard to find a practical way around it, the 'consent' requirements handled by using ICE/etc end up requiring us to use a gateway. If you're using a gateway to talk to legacy devices and/or PSTN gateways, you can include SRTP in the gateway for the webrtc side. -- Randell Jesup randell-ietf@jesup.org
