This document analyzes security issues around implementation and
use of the Direct Data Placement Protocol (DDP) and Remote Direct
Memory Access Protocol (RDMAP). It first defines an architectural
model for an RDMA Network Interface Card (RNIC), which can
implement DDP or RDMAP and DDP. The document reviews various
attacks against the resources defined in the architectural model
and the countermeasures that can be used to protect the system.
Attacks are grouped into those that can be mitigated by using secure
communication channels across the network, attacks from Remote Peers,
and attacks from Local Peers. Attack categories include spoofing,
tampering, information disclosure, denial of service, and elevation of privilege. [STANDARDS TRACK]
