6. Security Considerations

This MIB module relates to an agent that will provide metropolitan public Internet access. As such, improper manipulation of the objects represented by this MIB module may result in denial of service to a large number of end-users [6]. Manipulation of the docsIetfQosServiceClassTable and docsIetfQosServiceClassPolicyTable may allow an end-user to increase his or her service levels, or affect other end-users in either a positive or negative manner. In addition, manipulation of docsIetfQosServiceFlowLogControl could allow an attacker to remove logs of packet and byte counts forwarded on a Service Flow. If such logs were used for billing, the attacker would obtain free service. There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB module with a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations. These are the tables and objects and their sensitivity/vulnerability: o The docsIetfQosServiceClassTable provides a template of QOS parameters such as maximum rate limits for a named service class. Changing these parameters would allow an attacker to obtain an unauthorized class of service. o The docsIetfQosServiceClassPolicyTable applies CMTS vendor proprietary policies for packet forwarding, including dropping, scheduling, notification, or other policies. Changing this table could allow an attacker to deny service to all subscribers of the CMTS or could grant the attacker unauthorized forwarding policies. o The docsIetfQosServiceFlowLogControl object controls the deletion of entries in the docsIetfQosServiceFlowLogTable, which acts as a historical "detail record" of DOCSIS Service Flow packets and bytes transmitted. Such records may be used for billing purposes, so the unauthorized deletion of the records can result in free service. Some of the readable objects in this MIB module (i.e., objects with a MAX-ACCESS other than not-accessible) may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. It is thus important to
Top   ToC   RFC4323 - Page 85
   control even GET access to these objects and possibly to even encrypt
   the values of these objects when sending them over the network via
   SNMP.  These are the tables and objects and their
   sensitivity/vulnerability:

     o    Unauthorized SNMP GET access of the docsIetfQosPktClassTable
          or docsIetfQosPHSTable can allow an attacker to learn IP
          addresses permitted to have enhanced quality of service, for
          possible spoofing.  This table typically contains the IP
          addresses involved in voice-over-IP sessions, for example.

     o    Unauthorized SNMP GET access of the docsIetfQosParamSetTable
          allows an attacker to learn the names of Service Classes that
          are permitted to have enhanced QoS service, and the values of
          that enhanced service.  That name can be referenced in an
          unauthorized DOCSIS cable modem configuration file to obtain
          enhanced service.

     o    Unauthorized SNMP GET access of the
          docsIetfQosServiceFlowTable can tell an attacker when Service
          Flows are active, e.g., when a voice-over-IP call is in
          progress.

          Unauthorized SNMP GET access of the
          docsIetfQosServiceFlowLogTable can expose private information
          about network usage.

     o    Unauthorized SNMP GET access of the
          docsIetfQosServiceFlowStatsTable,
          docsIetfQosUpstreamStatsTable,
          docsIetfQosDynamicServiceStatsTable,
          docsIetfQosServiceFlowLogTable, and
          docsIetfQosCmtsMacToSrvFlowTable can tell an attacker the
          volume of traffic to and from any Service Flow in the system,
          resulting in loss of privacy of the amount and direction of
          data transfer.

   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 module.  It is RECOMMENDED that implementers consider the
   security features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework (see [15],
   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
Top   ToC   RFC4323 - Page 86
   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.

7. IANA Considerations

The MIB module in this document uses the following IANA-assigned OBJECT IDENTIFIER values recorded in the SMI Numbers registry: Descriptor OBJECT IDENTIFIER Value -------------- ----------------------- docsIetfQosMIB { mib-2 127 }
