# Introduction to libSRTP
This package provides an implementation of the Secure Real-time
Transport Protocol (SRTP), the Universal Security Transform (UST), and
a supporting cryptographic kernel. The SRTP API is documented in include/srtp.h,
and the library is in libsrtp2.a (after compilation).
This document describes libSRTP, the Open Source Secure RTP library
from Cisco Systems, Inc. RTP is the Real-time Transport Protocol, an
IETF standard for the transport of real-time data such as telephony,
audio, and video, defined by [RFC 3550](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3550.txt).
Secure RTP (SRTP) is an RTP profile for providing confidentiality to RTP data
and authentication to the RTP header and payload. SRTP is an IETF Standard,
defined in [RFC 3711](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3711.txt), and was developed
in the IETF Audio/Video Transport (AVT) Working Group. This library supports
all of the mandatory features of SRTP, but not all of the optional features. See
the [Supported Features](#supported-features) section for more detailed information.
This document is also used to generate the documentation files in the /doc/
folder where a more detailed reference to the libSRTP API and related functions
can be created (requires installing doxygen.). The reference material is created
automatically from comments embedded in some of the C header files. The
documentation is organized into modules in order to improve its clarity. These
modules do not directly correspond to files. An underlying cryptographic kernel
provides much of the basic functionality of libSRTP but is mostly undocumented
because it does its work behind the scenes.

# libSRTP Overview
libSRTP provides functions for protecting RTP and RTCP. RTP packets
can be encrypted and authenticated (using the `srtp_protect()`
function), turning them into SRTP packets. Similarly, SRTP packets
can be decrypted and have their authentication verified (using the
`srtp_unprotect()` function), turning them into RTP packets. Similar
functions apply security to RTCP packets.
The typedef `srtp_stream_t` points to a structure holding all of the
state associated with an SRTP stream, including the keys and
parameters for cipher and message authentication functions and the
anti-replay data. A particular `srtp_stream_t` holds the information
needed to protect a particular RTP and RTCP stream. This datatype
is intentionally opaque in order to better seperate the libSRTP
API from its implementation.
Within an SRTP session, there can be multiple streams, each
originating from a particular sender. Each source uses a distinct
stream context to protect the RTP and RTCP stream that it is
originating. The typedef `srtp_t` points to a structure holding all of
the state associated with an SRTP session. There can be multiple
stream contexts associated with a single `srtp_t`. A stream context
cannot exist indepent from an `srtp_t`, though of course an `srtp_t` can
be created that contains only a single stream context. A device
participating in an SRTP session must have a stream context for each
source in that session, so that it can process the data that it
receives from each sender.
In libSRTP, a session is created using the function `srtp_create()`.
The policy to be implemented in the session is passed into this
function as an `srtp_policy_t` structure. A single one of these
structures describes the policy of a single stream. These structures
can also be linked together to form an entire session policy. A linked
list of `srtp_policy_t` structures is equivalent to a session policy.
In such a policy, we refer to a single `srtp_policy_t` as an *element*.
An `srtp_policy_t` strucutre contains two `crypto_policy_t` structures
that describe the cryptograhic policies for RTP and RTCP, as well as
the SRTP master key and the SSRC value. The SSRC describes what to
protect (e.g. which stream), and the `crypto_policy_t` structures
describe how to protect it. The key is contained in a policy element
because it simplifies the interface to the library. In many cases, it
is desirable to use the same cryptographic policies across all of the
streams in a session, but to use a distinct key for each stream. A
`crypto_policy_t` structure can be initialized by using either the
`crypto_policy_set_rtp_default()` or `crypto_policy_set_rtcp_default()`
functions, which set a crypto policy structure to the default policies
for RTP and RTCP protection, respectively.

## Secure RTP Background
In this section we review SRTP and introduce some terms that are used
in libSRTP. An RTP session is defined by a pair of destination
transport addresses, that is, a network address plus a pair of UDP
ports for RTP and RTCP. RTCP, the RTP control protocol, is used to
coordinate between the participants in an RTP session, e.g. to provide
feedback from receivers to senders. An *SRTP session* is
similarly defined; it is just an RTP session for which the SRTP
profile is being used. An SRTP session consists of the traffic sent
to the SRTP or SRTCP destination transport addresses. Each
participant in a session is identified by a synchronization source
(SSRC) identifier. Some participants may not send any SRTP traffic;
they are called receivers, even though they send out SRTCP traffic,
such as receiver reports.
RTP allows multiple sources to send RTP and RTCP traffic during the
same session. The synchronization source identifier (SSRC) is used to
distinguish these sources. In libSRTP, we call the SRTP and SRTCP
traffic from a particular source a *stream*. Each stream has its own
SSRC, sequence number, rollover counter, and other data. A particular
choice of options, cryptographic mechanisms, and keys is called a
*policy*. Each stream within a session can have a distinct policy
applied to it. A session policy is a collection of stream policies.
A single policy can be used for all of the streams in a given session,
though the case in which a single *key* is shared across multiple
streams requires care. When key sharing is used, the SSRC values that
identify the streams **must** be distinct. This requirement can be
enforced by using the convention that each SRTP and SRTCP key is used
for encryption by only a single sender. In other words, the key is
shared only across streams that originate from a particular device (of
course, other SRTP participants will need to use the key for
decryption). libSRTP supports this enforcement by detecting the case
in which a key is used for both inbound and outbound data.

<a name="supported-features"></a>
## Supported Features
This library supports all of the mandatory-to-implement features of
SRTP (as defined in [RFC 3711](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3711.txt)). Some of these
features can be selected (or de-selected) at run time by setting an
appropriate policy; this is done using the structure `srtp_policy_t`.
Some other behaviors of the protocol can be adapted by defining an
approriate event handler for the exceptional events; see the SRTPevents
section in the generated documentation.
Some options that are described in the SRTP specification are not
supported. This includes
- key derivation rates other than zero,
- the cipher F8,
- the use of the packet index to select between master keys.
The user should be aware that it is possible to misuse this libary,
and that the result may be that the security level it provides is
inadequate. If you are implementing a feature using this library, you
will want to read the Security Considerations section of [RFC 3711](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3711.txt).
In addition, it is important that you read and understand the
terms outlined in the [License and Disclaimer](#license-and-disclaimer) section.

<a name="implementation-notes"></a>
## Implementation Notes
* The `srtp_protect()` function assumes that the buffer holding the
rtp packet has enough storage allocated that the authentication
tag can be written to the end of that packet. If this assumption
is not valid, memory corruption will ensue.
* Automated tests for the crypto functions are provided through
the `cipher_type_self_test()` and `auth_type_self_test()` functions.
These functions should be used to test each port of this code
to a new platform.
* Replay protection is contained in the crypto engine, and
tests for it are provided.
* This implementation provides calls to initialize, protect, and
unprotect RTP packets, and makes as few as possible assumptions
about how these functions will be called. For example, the
caller is not expected to provide packets in order (though if
they're called more than 65k out of sequence, synchronization
will be lost).
* The sequence number in the rtp packet is used as the low 16 bits
of the sender's local packet index. Note that RTP will start its
sequence number in a random place, and the SRTP layer just jumps
forward to that number at its first invocation. An earlier
version of this library used initial sequence numbers that are
less than 32,768; this trick is no longer required as the
`rdbx_estimate_index(...)` function has been made smarter.
* The replay window for (S)RTCP is hardcoded to 128 bits in length.

# Installing and Building libSRTP
To install libSRTP, download the latest release of the distribution
from [https://github.com/cisco/libsrtp/releases](https://github.com/cisco/libsrtp/releases).
You probably want to get the most recent release. Unpack the distribution and
extract the source files; the directory into which the source files
will go is named `libsrtp-A-B-C` where `A` is the version number, `B` is the
major release number and `C` is the minor release number.
libSRTP uses the GNU `autoconf` and `make` utilities (BSD make will not work; if
both versions of make are on your platform, you can invoke GNU make as
`gmake`.). In the `libsrtp` directory, run the configure script and then
make:
~~~.txt
./configure [ options ]
make
~~~
The configure script accepts the following options:
Option | Description
-------------------------------|--------------------
\-\-help \-h | Display help
\-\-enable-debug-logging | Enable debug logging in all modules
\-\-enable-log-stdout | Enable logging to stdout
\-\-enable-openssl | Enable OpenSSL crypto engine
\-\-enable-openssl-kdf | Enable OpenSSL KDF algorithm
\-\-with-log-file | Use file for logging
\-\-with-openssl-dir | Location of OpenSSL installation
By default there is no log output, logging can be enabled to be output to stdout
or a given file using the configure options.
This package has been tested on the following platforms: Mac OS X
(powerpc-apple-darwin1.4), Cygwin (i686-pc-cygwin), Solaris
(sparc-sun-solaris2.6), RedHat Linux 7.1 and 9 (i686-pc-linux), and
OpenBSD (sparc-unknown-openbsd2.7).

# Applications
Several test drivers and a simple and portable srtp application are
included in the `test/` subdirectory.
Test driver | Function tested
--------- | -------
kernel_driver | crypto kernel (ciphers, auth funcs, rng)
srtp_driver | srtp in-memory tests (does not use the network)
rdbx_driver | rdbx (extended replay database)
roc_driver | extended sequence number functions
replay_driver | replay database
cipher_driver | ciphers
auth_driver | hash functions
The app `rtpw` is a simple rtp application which reads words from
`/usr/dict/words` and then sends them out one at a time using [s]rtp.
Manual srtp keying uses the -k option; automated key management
using gdoi will be added later.
usage:
~~~.txt
rtpw [[-d <debug>]* [-k|b <key> [-a][-e <key size>][-g]] [-s | -r] dest_ip dest_port] | [-l]
~~~
Either the -s (sender) or -r (receiver) option must be chosen. The
values `dest_ip`, `dest_port` are the IP address and UDP port to which
the dictionary will be sent, respectively.
The options are:
Option | Description
--------- | -------
-s | (S)RTP sender - causes app to send words
-r | (S)RTP receive - causes app to receive words
-k <key> | use SRTP master key <key>, where the key is a hexadecimal (without the leading "0x")
-b <key> | same as -k but with base64 encoded key
-e <keysize> | encrypt/decrypt (for data confidentiality) (requires use of -k option as well) (use 128, 192, or 256 for keysize)
-g | use AES-GCM mode (must be used with -e)
-a | message authentication (requires use of -k option as well)
-l | list the available debug modules
-d <debug> | turn on debugging for module <debug>
In order to get random 30-byte values for use as key/salt pairs , you
can use the following bash function to format the output of
`/dev/random` (where that device is available).
~~~.txt
function randhex() {
cat /dev/random | od --read-bytes=32 --width=32 -x | awk '{ print $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9 $10 $11 $12 $13 $14 $15 $16 }'
}
~~~
An example of an SRTP session using two rtpw programs follows:
~~~.txt
set k=c1eec3717da76195bb878578790af71c4ee9f859e197a414a78d5abc7451
[sh1]$ test/rtpw -s -k $k -e 128 -a 0.0.0.0 9999

## Example Code
This section provides a simple example of how to use libSRTP. The
example code lacks error checking, but is functional. Here we assume
that the value ssrc is already set to describe the SSRC of the stream
that we are sending, and that the functions `get_rtp_packet()` and
`send_srtp_packet()` are available to us. The former puts an RTP packet
into the buffer and returns the number of octets written to that
buffer. The latter sends the RTP packet in the buffer, given the
length as its second argument.
~~~.c
srtp_t session;
srtp_policy_t policy;
// Set key to predetermined value
uint8_t key[30] = {0x00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07,
0x08, 0x09, 0x0A, 0x0B, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x0E, 0x0F,
0x10, 0x11, 0x12, 0x13, 0x14, 0x15, 0x16, 0x17,
0x18, 0x19, 0x1A, 0x1B, 0x1C, 0x1D};
// initialize libSRTP
srtp_init();
// set policy to describe a policy for an SRTP stream
crypto_policy_set_rtp_default(&policy.rtp);
crypto_policy_set_rtcp_default(&policy.rtcp);
policy.ssrc = ssrc;
policy.key = key;
policy.next = NULL;
// allocate and initialize the SRTP session
srtp_create(&session, &policy);
// main loop: get rtp packets, send srtp packets
while (1) {
char rtp_buffer[2048];
unsigned len;
len = get_rtp_packet(rtp_buffer);
srtp_protect(session, rtp_buffer, &len);
send_srtp_packet(rtp_buffer, len);
}
