Hi,as requested here is a patch in order to take into account Encryption and Authentication keys for ESP in hexa. You only have to write your key with 0x first. In this case if the key is not in 8-bit unit, it will be considered as starting with a "0" (4 bits). Excepted this case, the key should be completely written, even if it starts with "0x00".
Nevertheless, if the box contains a key with white spaces before "0x", it will be taken into account. Ie if the ESP preference contains " 0xffffff", it will not be considered as an hexadecimal key (4 white spaces before 0x). I do not think it is a problem but please tell me if it is, I will correct this.
Moreover I noticed an editorial issue in the Author files ;-). IPsec should be written like this and not IP-sec.
could you please update this ? best regards,ps : in attachment, you will also get some examples for using Hexadecimal keys (preference and capture files, IPsec policy for setkey).
ps2 : sorry for the off-by-one errors ;-( --- Frederic Roudaut Filonenko Alexander-AAF013 wrote:
Frederic,Thank you for the response. While adding this feature, do you plan to add another checkbox in the ESP preferences so the user can switch between ASCII/hex modes for encryption keys?

You're right for the key. To enter binary keys you need to modify the dissector. It should easy to adapt. If needed, I could easily add this but however not before the beginning of september.Sorry for that. best regards, -- Frederic Roudaut Filonenko Alexander-AAF013 a �crit :Frederic,I am using ESP decryption features of your dissector and it is very useful. I have one question though. How can I use arbitrary (non-ASCII) encryption key with preferences available for ESP? Is the key limited to ASCII characters only?Thank you, Alex -----Original Message-----From: Filonenko Alexander-AAF013 Sent: Friday, February 24, 2006 4:43 PMTo: 'Ethereal development' Subject: RE: [Ethereal-dev] IPsec Dissector to decrypt ESP Payload Frederic, I find IPsec functionality you have added to the dissector very useful. Hope I can provide you with some feedback in a few weeks.

It does not use openssl anymore. If gnutls is installed, all should work.Thus, now it should decrypt and dissect (transport/tunnel/several encapsulations ...) :- NULL Encryption Algorithm - TripleDES-CBC [RFC2451] : keylen 192 bits. - AES-CBC with 128-bit keys [RFC3602] : keylen 128 and 192/256 bits. - AES-CTR [RFC3686] : keylen 160/224/288 bits. The remaining 32 bits will be used as nonce. - DES-CBC [RFC2405] : keylen 64 bits I also have added : - BLOWFISH-CBC : keylen 128 bits. - TWOFISH-CBC : keylen 128/256 bits.You have to indicate the Authentication algorithm even if all Algorithms since it uses 12 bytes in the Auth field should work (have a look to the README to understand why I put it;-) ). If you consider I have to throw it away please tell me. HMAC-SHA1-96 [RFC2404] NULL AES-XCBC-MAC-96 [RFC3566] HMAC-MD5-96 [RFC2403] In the attachment you will get : - this dissector - a new README- some example capture files with associated preferences files (and setkey config files)Best Regards, ---- Frederic -- Fr�d�ric ROUDAUT IRISA-INRIA, Campus de Beaulieu, 35042 Rennes cedex, France Tl: +33 (0) 2 99 84 71 44, Fax: +33 (0) 2 99 84 71 71_______________________________________________ Ethereal-dev mailing list Ethereal-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.ethereal.com/mailman/listinfo/ethereal-dev
