6. Acknowledgements

The authors of the document would like to thank Randy Turner, Ashwini S.T., Kevin Luehrs, Sam Sankoorikal, and Juergen Quittek for their valuable feedback. The authors would like to especially thank Juergen Schoenwaelder for his patient and fine-combed review and detailed comments as a MIB doctor. The NAT MIB is much clearer and flatter as a result of Juergen's suggestions.

7. Security Considerations

It is clear that this MIB can potentially be useful for configuration. Unauthorized access to the write-able objects could cause a denial of service and/or widespread network disturbance. Hence, the support for SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. At this writing, no security holes have been identified beyond those that SNMP Security is itself intended to address. These relate primarily to controlled access to sensitive information and the ability to configure a device - or which might result from operator error, which is beyond the scope of any security architecture. There are a number of managed objects in this MIB that may contain information that may be sensitive from a business perspective, in that they may represent NAT bind and session information. The NAT bind and session objects reveal the identity of private hosts that are engaged in a session with external end nodes. A curious outsider
ToP   noToC   RFC4008 - Page 60
   could monitor these two objects to assess the number of private hosts
   being supported by the NAT device.  Further, a disgruntled former
   employee of an enterprise could use the NAT bind and session
   information to break into specific private hosts by intercepting the
   existing sessions or originating new sessions into the host.  There
   are no objects that are sensitive in their own right, such as
   passwords or monetary amounts.  It may even be important to control
   GET access to these objects and possibly to encrypt the values of
   these objects when they are sent over the network via SNMP.  Not all
   versions of SNMP provide features for such a secure environment.

   SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 did not include adequate security.
   Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPSec),
   even then, there is no control as to who on the secure network is
   allowed to access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects
   in this MIB.

   It is recommended that the implementers consider the security
   features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework (see [RFC3410], section
   8), including full support for the SNMPv3 cryptographic mechanisms
   (for authentication and privacy).

   Further, deployment of SNMP versions prior to SNMPv3 is NOT
   RECOMMENDED.  Instead, it is RECOMMENDED to deploy SNMPv3 and to
   enable cryptographic security.  It is then a customer/operator
   responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an
   instance of this MIB module is properly configured to give access to
   the objects only to those principals (users) that have legitimate
   rights to indeed GET or SET (change/create/delete) them.
