RE: OpenBSC Digest, Vol 35, Issue 30

Hi, Thank you very much for your response, This make me believe in this project, I have just found that there are released Nightly Builds for Osmocom GSM related software. I will reinstall my server with one of this builds and try everything again, Basically I was following procedure from Site, on my Debian server but was stucked with dependencies which I were not able to compile, Libosmo-sccp, Libosmo-netif, libosmo-abis https://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Build_from_Source I will come back with questions after I tried again.

So something like seeding with getrandom() result should be fine? Might also make sense to periodically re-seed from /dev/urandom / getrandom(), like every 100 TMSIs, or based on a timeout might be easier to implement. I would try to avoid any predictability here. Having a fixed time interval would be known to an attackers. So if he was somehow able to reduce/exhaust the entropy at the known time for re-seeding, it would be bad. Similar for "every 100 TMSIs", which is something under control of any attacker as he can control the number of location updates via the public radio interface [to some extent] and thus control the time at whcih re-seeding is done. Maybe I'm going overboard here, but I think if you want to re-seed, you want to ideally do it at a non-predictable and non-controllable point in time. Like a random time interval ;) For long-term stable key (Ki/Op) generation for provisioning SIM cards + populating a HLR, I would certainly opt for using stronger randomness sources. However, I don't think we actually implement that anywhere, do we? what does openssh use for public/private keypair generation? I'm not sure you can compare the requirements for generation of RSA public/private keys with those for generation of symmetric keys. You can find different recommendations in the literature. But I guess that's mainly due to the fact that people usually assume you have long-term stable public/private keys and short-lived symmetric session keys. In our case, it's long-lived symmetric keys. But as indicated, I think our focus is to find a proper solution for generation of TMSIs and for random numbers used in authentication challenges. K/OPc pair generation is not supported in current Osmocom tools anyway, as we presume the SIM cards already have sufficiently random key material and those keys are entered into the HLR.

I notice though that we do still have open doors for a lot of nonsense being sent to it without proper validation or error messages. GET 42 existing-variable.trailing.names.ignored more nonsense following being ignored in effect is identical to: GET 42 existing-variable So we should probably enforce that there is no ignored nonsense... I agree. Should we also enforce a numeric command ID? I'm not following here. Where would that numeric command ID comning from? GET currently-any-id-is-possible-even-\t-\n-is-accepted my-command this is also not intended, I'm quite sure. Going back to the OsmoHLR CTRL commands -- they are implemented in a way that doesn't match the CTRL interface ways. Let's collapse them. SET enable-ps <IMSI> SET disable-ps <IMSI> SET status-ps <IMSI> indeed, this is not proper. SET subscriber.by-imsi.123456789098765.ps-enabled 1 SET subscriber.by-imsi.123456789098765.ps-enabled 0 GET subscriber.by-imsi.123456789098765.ps-enabled makes a lot of sense to me. We can also expand this later to things like GET subscriber.by-imsi.123456789098765.status SET subscriber.by-imsi.123456789098765.msisdn 2345 GET subscriber.by-msisdn.2342.status SET subscriber.by-msisdn.2342.ps-enabled 0 GET subscriber.by-imei.987654321234565.imsi looks good! We could leave the enable-ps, disable-ps, status-ps commands in place in case anyone is using it yet. I assume no-one is though. I don't think we need to keep compatibility at this point. -- - Harald Welte <laforge@gnumonks.org<mailto:laforge@gnumonks.org>> http://laforge.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ "Privacy in residential applications is a desirable marketing option."

But the sysmoUSIM cards sold at shop.sysmocom.de<http://shop.sysmocom.de> are fairly inexpensive for a pack of 10, so a bricked (U)SIM shouldn't be too big of a tragedy - or is there another dimension to this problem which I am missing? If you are anywhere near local to me (California, USA) I could give you one of my sysmoUSIM cards, but I am guessing it probably won't help you as I bought the cheaper version without the ADM1 keys - for my application (production testing of my GSM MS hardware) it doesn't matter what the programming of the (U)SIM happens to be.
