The Session PEERing for Multimedia INTerconnect working group
(SPEERMINT) provides a peering framework that leverages the building
blocks of existing IETF-defined protocols such as SIP and ENUM for
the interconnection between SIP Service Providers (SSPs). The
objective of this document is to identify and enumerate SPEERMINT-
specific threat vectors and to give guidance for implementers on
selecting appropriate countermeasures. Security requirements for
SPEERMINT which have been derived from the threats detailed in this
document can be found in RFC 6271; this document provides concrete
countermeasures to meet those SPEERMINT security requirements. In
this document, the different security threats related to SPEERMINT
are classified into threats to the Lookup Function (LUF), to the
Location Routing Function (LRF), to the Signaling Function (SF), and
to the Media Function (MF) of a specific SIP Service Provider.
Various instances of the threats are briefly introduced inside the
classification. Finally, existing security solutions for SIP and
RTP/RTCP are presented to describe countermeasures currently
available for such threats. Each SSP may have connections to one or
more remote SSPs through peering or transit contracts. A potentially
compromised remote SSP which attacks other SSPs is out of the scope
of this document; this document focuses on attacks on an SSP from
outside the trust domain such an SSP may have with other SSPs.
