WTF is SCTP

SCTP was created because TCP with its flow control bears too much overhead for modern multimedia protocols. It combines characteristics of UDP and TCP, without head-of-line blocking, to ensure optimal transfer. Error forward correction is included by CRC and flow control is not byte oriented but sequence oriented, being more adapted to multimedia application.

Moreover multi-homing is supported, meaning clients with multiple addresses can be serviced in one stream. Several streams can then be transported in one packet, so less sockets need to be opened as in TCP or UDP. The protocol is not widely spread although being standardized in 2000. And most important, a SCTP socket implementation is missing for programming languages. Nevertheless, it is predominantly used in the regime of telecommunication.

This tutorial will teach you about the configuration of T2 core to activate the SCTP flow stream dissector and give a short introduction to the SCTP plugin.

This is not a tutorial about SCTP, a good overview about the packet structure can be found here: SCTP Note that the tutorial is valid for a version 0.8.13lmw2 and higher.

Preparation

First, restore T2 into a pristine state by removing all unnecessary or older plugins from the plugin folder ~/.tranalyzer/plugins:

t2build -e -y

Are you sure you want to empty the plugin folder '/home/wurst/.tranalyzer/plugins' (y/N)? yes
Plugin folder emptied

Then compile the following plugins:

t2build tranalyzer2 protoStats basicFlow basicStats sctpDecode txtSink

...
BUILD SUCCESSFUL

If you did not create a separate data and results directory yet, please do it now in another bash window, that facilitates your workflow:

mkdir ~/data ~/results

The sample PCAP used in this tutorial can be downloaded here: sctp-multi.pcap.

Please save it in your ~/data folder.

Now you’re all set. Let’s start with the SCTP pcap in T2 default mode.

Invoke t2 with the pcap, store the results it in your ~/results folder and also generate a packet file:

t2 -r ~/data/sctp-multi.pcap -w ~/results/ -s

Only 2 flows. One A and B.

Looking at the plugin end report, a summary of the number of packets and aggregated states is supplied. Two flows are created, so one communication between two peers. A summary of the SCTP statistics and type bitfields is present and can be decoded using tawk -V.

As no sctpStat appears in the end report we have no grave errors, these are the defined bits which can appear:

tawk -V sctpStat

The sctpStat column is to be interpreted as follows:

   bit | sctpStat | Description
   =============================================================================
     0 | 0x01     | Adler32 error
     1 | 0x02     | CRC32 error
     2 | 0x04     | Chunk padded
     3 | 0x08     | Chunk truncated

     4 | 0x10     | 3 Ack
     5 | 0x20     | Type Field overflow
     6 | 0x40     | Do not report
     7 | 0x80     | Stop processing of the packet

But we see these control and type flags:

tawk -V sctpCFlags=0xc7 -V sctpTypeBF=0x0c0f

The sctpCFlags column with value 0xc7 is to be interpreted as follows:

   bit | sctpCFlags | Description
   =============================================================================
     0 | 0x01       | Last segment
     1 | 0x02       | First segment
     2 | 0x04       | Ordered delivery
     6 | 0x40       | Transmission sequence number Error
     7 | 0x80       | Association Sequence Number Error


The sctpTypeBF column with value 0x0c0f is to be interpreted as follows:

   bit | sctpTypeBF | Description
   =============================================================================
     0 | 0x0001     | Payload data
     1 | 0x0002     | Initiation
     2 | 0x0004     | Initiation acknowledgement
     3 | 0x0008     | Selective acknowledgement
    10 | 0x0400     | State cookie
    11 | 0x0800     | Cookie acknowledgement

The Transmission sequence number error can happen, when either packet get lost or swapped. The sctpTypeBF contains the aggregated chunk content types over all flows. So an SCTP flow which is in progress and not terminated yet.

Nevertheless, a quasi normal SCTP stream. Now, open the flow file under your ~/results directory.

Here are the two flows, but they indicate there are more streams hidden. The maximum announced number of in/out streams (sctpIS and sctpOS) is 17, while the actual data channels (sctpMaxDSNum) is 11. A list of all chunk types can be acquired by invoking the following tawk command:

The packet mode shows all SCTP streams information in one packet aggregated into one column separated by ; (sctpChunkType_Sid_Flags_Len): This column reports chunk type, the stream ID, the chunk flags and the chunk length. We will discuss more about this later

Oups, no layer 4 SCTP packet info? Why??? By default we switched the SCTP statistics in protoStats off, as most users did not need it. So let’s switch it on and rerun t2 without packet mode to save time (If you had a 100 GB pcap, then you would realize the difference :-))

t2conf protoStats -D SCTP_STAT=1 && t2build protoStats

t2 -r ~/data/sctp-multi.pcap -w ~/results/sctp/

Looking into the protocols file note that the SCTP has now an entry for port 7, the Echo protocol, including packet count. Nevertheless, the Description Echo is misleading, as SCTP ports are not compliant with the standard TCP/UDP port designation.

Now let’s look what happens when we activate the SCTP dissect mode of T2 core, meaning that we add the SCTP stream ID to the flow hash.

T2 in SCTP stream dissect mode

The anteater has a unique flow concept for SCTP, which dissects the chunk streams and converts them into T2 flows. In order to enable this function the SCTP stream dissect mode has to be enabled via the SCTP_ACTIVATE constant in the core configuration of networkHeaders.h. It is off by default, to optimize performance for the default user.

tranalyzer2

vi src/networkHeaders.h

...
/* ========================================================================== */
/* ------------------------ USER CONFIGURATION FLAGS ------------------------ */
/* ========================================================================== */
...
#define SCTP_ACTIVATE     0 // 0: standard flows
                            // 1: activate SCTP chunk streams -> flows
                            // 2: activate SCTP association -> flows
                            // 3: activate SCTP Chunk & association -> flows
#define SCTP_STATFINDEX   1 // 0: findex increments
                            // 1: findex constant for all SCTP streams in a packet

SCTP_ACTIVATE has several modes. If set to 1 the chunk stream ID is added to the flow hash, hence each data chunk stream is sorted into one unique flow. Option 2 activates the association mode, thus the verification tag is added to the flow. And in mode 3, both will be added to the flow. Note, that 2 and especially 3 might collide with the port and IP address hash content. So it is advisable to think before what you want to aggregate. E.g. for mode 3 the aggregation of the IP and ports should be switched off via AGGREGATIONFLAG in tranalyzer.h. As they are redundant. In mode 2, if AGGREGATIONFLAG is set to ignore IPs and ports you must be aware that now several flows are aggregated into one SCTP association flow, hence content flags and content itself is aggregated as well. Just to let you know, that the concept is powerful, but you need to know what you want to achieve.

So enable SCTP chunk stream in the core and re-invoke t2 with the -s option.

t2conf tranalyzer2 -D SCTP_ACTIVATE=1 && t2build -R

t2 -r ~/data/sctp-multi.pcap -w ~/results/ -s

Note, in the fourth line SCTP indicates that the core now dissects the protocol and creates independent flows for each SCTP stream.

And now T2 creates 24 flows (12 A flows and 12 B flows) or 12 communication streams.

Move to your results window again and open the ~/results/sctp-multi_flows.txt file. Note that every flow is labeled with the same flowInd (1), as all SCTP stream flows are from one original flow. But sctpDSNum denotes the stream ID, or SCTP Data Stream Number.

If you look at the packets file you will see that the flowInd is always 1 and there are several packet numbers with the same pktNo. Now every chunk has its own packet line and thus is easier to post process. Moreover all T2 plugins can now operate on SCTP packets/flows like in other protocols e.g. TCP and selection by tawk according to flows and streams is facilitated.

If you like every stream flow to be labelled with a separate index, then disable SCTP_STATFINDEX, recompile and rerun t2:

t2conf tranalyzer2 -D SCTP_STATFINDEX=0 && t2build -R

t2 -r ~/data/sctp-multi.pcap -w ~/results/ -s

Now each flow stream has a different flowInd. So you can easily discern which packet belongs to which stream flow by the flowInd alone, unless there are more packets. Nevertheless, if there are more flows of any protocol present to you, the flowInd to packet relation is then unique but difficult to extract. If you want to treat streams individually independent of packet flow association, this is the mode of choice.

Now the packet numbers can be assigned also to the flow stream directly, they match now sctpChunk_Sid + 1 in this special case. If there are more flows around, this is not the case. Nevertheless, if you extracted a SCTP connection consisting of many streams, this mode considerably facilitates the post processing with tawk:

Note that different flowInd can originate from the same packet and now different streams in a packet have the same packet number, e.g. pktNo = 5.

Now lets try the SCTP association -> flows mode which aggregates all packets of an SCTP association into one flow, iff the default 4 tuple aggregation IPs and ports is disabled, the protocol is used to segregate the SCTP flows from all other protocols. See the Flexible Flow Aggregation tutorial.

So enable SCTP mode 2 and mask the IPs and the upper range or the ports, as the lower is default 1, then recompile and rerun t2 on the pcap.

t2conf tranalyzer2 -D SCTP_ACTIVATE=2 -D AGGREGATIONFLAG=0x1e -D SRCIP4CMSK=0 -D DSTIP4CMSK=0 -D SRCPORTHW=65535 -D DSTPORTHW=65535 && t2build -R

t2 -r ~/data/sctp-multi.pcap -w ~/results/sctp/sctp-multi -s

Note that basicStats only sees the network, as the mask is now /0, the ports are all aggregated in one flow and only the SCTP association counts. So we expect 2 flows, but we see 3, why?

Ahhh, the first flow contains the SCTP_CT_INIT packet where the verification tag is 0. Oups.

If you switch now to mode 3 then the result is the same as with mode 1, except when more IP streams are involved, but I do not have traffic for that, which I can publish.

t2conf tranalyzer2 -D SCTP_ACTIVATE=3 && t2build -R

t2 -r ~/data/sctp-multi.pcap -w ~/results/sctp/sctp-multi -s

...

Then you have 25 instead of 24, for the same reasons. This is experimental, so have patience or give us hints how to improve the anteater.

Now we look into the plugin sctpDecode, which dissects more the chunk information, also currently experimental and programmed according to my needs, so please comment.

sctpDecode

This plugin was designed for a troubleshooting job we had to do at a customer. I will add more in due time, or please give feedback to the anteater email. Then, your request will be integrated.

So what can be configured? Move to the sctpDecode/src directory and open sctpDecode.h.

sctpDecode

vi src/sctpDecode.h

The plugin computes the different checksums in use, either CRC32 or Adler. By default they are disabled, because it adds unnecessary load if somebody is not interested in that.

Switch on CRC32 as our pcap uses CRC32. Also reset SCTP_STATFINDEX to 1 via t2conf, recompile all and rerun t2 using again also the -s packet option.

t2conf tranalyzer2 -D SCTP_STATFINDEX=1

t2conf sctpDecode -D SCTP_CRCADL32CHK=1 -D SCTP_CHNKVAL=1

t2build -R

...

The status reports that there are no checksum errors in sctpStat. But there are communication errors regarding sequence and association numbers. We had them earlier in the end report remember?

tawk -V sctpCFlags=0xc7

The sctpCFlags column with value 0xc7 is to be interpreted as follows:

   bit | sctpCFlags | Description
   =============================================================================
     0 | 0x01       | Last segment
     1 | 0x02       | First segment
     2 | 0x04       | Ordered delivery
     6 | 0x40       | Transmission sequence number Error
     7 | 0x80       | Association Sequence Number Error

Also the SCTP type bitfield in the end report is gone, because now we list the explicit types in the flow file. If you look into the flow file, you will note that the bitfield is now replaced by the sctpType column listing all unique appearing SCTP stream types separated by ;.

Same happens to the packet file, so we go directly to the human readable config. If you like a human readable output set SCTP_CHNKVAL to 2, recompile sctpDecode and rerun t2.

t2conf sctpDecode -D SCTP_CHNKVAL=2 && t2build sctpDecode

t2 -r ~/data/sctp-multi.pcap -w ~/results/sctp/sctp-multi -s

Now the type is human readable.
