The SASL mechanism name for a GSS-API mechanism is the concatenation The SASL mechanism name for a GSS-API mechanism is the concatenation
of the string "GS2-" and the Base32 encoding [5] (with an upper case of the string "GS2-" and the Base32 encoding [5] (with an upper case
alphabet) of the first ten bytes of the binary SHA-1 hash [4] string alphabet) of the first ten bytes of the binary SHA-1 hash [4] string

3.2. Computing mechanism names manually 3.2. Computing Mechanism Names Manually
The SASL mechanism name may be computed manually. This is useful The SASL mechanism name may be computed manually. This is useful
when the set of supported GSS-API mechanisms is known in advance. It when the set of supported GSS-API mechanisms is known in advance. It

SASL mechanism. The computed mechanism name can be used directly in SASL mechanism. The computed mechanism name can be used directly in
the implementation, and the implementation need not concern itself the implementation, and the implementation need not concern itself
with that the mechanism is part of a mechanism family. with that the mechanism is part of a mechanism family.
3.3. Example 3.3. Example
For example, the OID for the SPKM-1 mechanism [12] is For example, the OID for the SPKM-1 mechanism [12] is
1.3.6.1.5.5.1.1. The ASN.1 DER encoding of the OID is 06 07 2b 06 01 1.3.6.1.5.5.1.1. The ASN.1 DER encoding of the OID is 06 07 2b 06 01
05 05 01 01. The SHA-1 hash of the ASN.1 DER encoding is 05 05 01 01. The SHA-1 hash of the ASN.1 DER encoding is
1cf8f42b5a9f80fae9f831226d5d9d56278661ad. The Base32 encoding of the 1cf8f42b5a9f80fae9f831226d5d9d56278661ad. The Base32 encoding of the
first ten bytes of this is "dt4pik22t6epv2py". Thus the SASL first ten bytes of this is "dt4pik22t6epv2py". Thus the SASL
mechanism name for the SPKM-1 GSSAPI mechanism is "GS2- mechanism name for the SPKM-1 GSSAPI mechanism is "GS2-
DT4PIK22T6EPV2PY". DT4PIK22T6EPV2PY".

5. Protocol overview 5. Channel Bindings
[[This section is tentative further discussion on the topic. This
was written to provide an example of how the details of how one
approach to this concept could look like. There are other approaches
that may be preferable.]]
The GS2 mechanism provide its own token field for channel bindings,
in addition to the "chan_binding" parameter in the GSS-API context
functions. The reason for this is that the GS2 mechanism wish to
provide an option to proceed even if the channel bindings does not
match. The GSS-API framework specifies that authentication cannot
proceed if channel bindings does not match. The GSS-API framework
also does not specify the kind of privacy layer the channel binding
should be transferred under, thus making it possible for attackers to
modify it to always make channel binding negotiation succeed.
The client can select, using the "Native Channel Bindings" bit,
whether it wishes to use the "chan_bindings" parameter in the GSS-API
layer or not. If it wishes to use this, it is not possible to
continue after a failed channel binding negotiation.
A client that wish to continue with the authentication even if the
channel bindings does not match, set the "Native Channel Binding" bit
to 0. It MUST use the channel binding field in the GS2 token. It
MUST set the "chan_binding" parameter in the calls to
GSS_Init_sec_context to GSS_Accept_sec_context to NULL. The
application MUST set the "client_qops" field to include privacy
protection (to protect the SASL application data), and MAY set the
"client_cbqops" to no security layer (to avoid performance
degradation due to two security layers).
If a client do not wish to continue the authentication if channel
binding negotiation fails, or wishes to use the channel binding in
the GSS-API layer, it will set the "Native Channel Binding" bit to 1
in its first token. It MUST use both the channel binding field in
the GS2 token and the "chan_binding" parameter in the calls to
GSS_Init_sec_context and GSS_Accept_sec_context. The authentication
will fail in the GSS-API layer if the channel bindings does not
match, and thus the "client_qops" and "client_cbqops" MUST be set to
the same value. It MAY be set to no security layer (to avoid
performance degradation due to two security layers).
For TLS, the channel binding data is specified in the next section.
For other security layers, channel binding data will have to
specified elsewhere, and this specification will have to be updated
with explicit considerations.
[[All channel bindings should go into a separate document.]]
5.1. Name Of Tls Channel For Use As Channel Binding
The TLS Pseudo-Random Function (PRF) generate, using the constant
string "TLS channel binding", and based on the master secret and the
random values established during a TLS handshake, a 64 octet string
that make up the SASL channel binding data.
Using the terminology of TLS [13], the channel binding data is
computed as follows:
SASL_channel_binding =
PRF(SecurityParameters.master_secret,
"TLS channel binding",
SecurityParameters.server_random +
SecurityParameters.client_random) [0..64];
The derived data is intended to be used as a name of the TLS channel
that is cryptographically bound to the channel, for use in
authentication mechanisms tunneled over TLS.
