15th Annual Computer Security Applications Conference (ACSAC '99)
Using Checkable Types in Automatic Protocol Analysis
Phoenix, Arizona
December 06-December 10
ISBN: 0-7695-0346-2
Stephen H. Brackin, Arca Systems / Exodus Communications
The Automatic Authentication Protocol Analyzer, 2nd Version (AAPA2) is a fast, completely automatic tool for formally analyzing cryptographic protocols. It correctly identifies vulnerabilities or their absence in 43 of 51 protocols studied in the literature, and it finds errors in previously asserted authentication properties of two large commercial protocols. This paper describes the AAPA2 and its modeling of type, equality, and inequality tests performed by protocol participants. This description includes defining the AAPA2's Interface Specification Language, 2nd Version (ISL2), which expresses user assumptions about identifiably distinct plaintext types.
