+Abstract
+
+ The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) [1] provides a standard method for
+ transporting multi-protocol datagrams over point-to-point links. PPP
+ defines an extensible Link Control Protocol and a family of Network
+ Control Protocols (NCPs) for establishing and configuring different
+ network-layer protocols.
+
+ This document describes version two of Microsoft's PPP CHAP dialect
+ (MS-CHAP-V2). MS-CHAP-V2 is similar to, but incompatible with, MS-
+ CHAP version one (MS-CHAP-V1, described in [9]). In particular,
+ certain protocol fields have been deleted or reused but with
+ different semantics. In addition, MS-CHAP-V2 features mutual
+ authentication.
+
+ The algorithms used in the generation of various MS-CHAP-V2 protocol
+ fields are described in section 8. Negotiation and hash generation
+ examples are provided in section 9.
+
+Specification of Requirements
+
+ In this document, the key words "MAY", "MUST, "MUST NOT", "optional",
+ "recommended", "SHOULD", and "SHOULD NOT" are to be interpreted as
+ described in [3].

+RFC 2759 Microsoft MS-CHAP-V2 January 2000
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ Where possible, MS-CHAP-V2 is consistent with both MS-CHAP-V1 and
+ standard CHAP. Briefly, the differences between MS-CHAP-V2 and MS-
+ CHAP-V1 are:
+
+ * MS-CHAP-V2 is enabled by negotiating CHAP Algorithm 0x81 in LCP
+ option 3, Authentication Protocol.
+
+ * MS-CHAP-V2 provides mutual authentication between peers by
+ piggybacking a peer challenge on the Response packet and an
+ authenticator response on the Success packet.
+
+ * The calculation of the "Windows NT compatible challenge response"
+ sub-field in the Response packet has been changed to include the
+ peer challenge and the user name.
+
+ * In MS-CHAP-V1, the "LAN Manager compatible challenge response"
+ sub-field was always sent in the Response packet. This field has
+ been replaced in MS-CHAP-V2 by the Peer-Challenge field.
+
+ * The format of the Message field in the Failure packet has been
+ changed.
+
+ * The Change Password (version 1) and Change Password (version 2)
+ packets are no longer supported. They have been replaced with a
+ single Change-Password packet.
+
+2. LCP Configuration
+
+ The LCP configuration for MS-CHAP-V2 is identical to that for
+ standard CHAP, except that the Algorithm field has value 0x81, rather
+ than the MD5 value 0x05. PPP implementations which do not support
+ MS-CHAP-V2, but correctly implement LCP Config-Rej, should have no
+ problem dealing with this non-standard option.
+
+3. Challenge Packet
+
+ The MS-CHAP-V2 Challenge packet is identical in format to the
+ standard CHAP Challenge packet.
+
+ MS-CHAP-V2 authenticators send an 16-octet challenge Value field.
+ Peers need not duplicate Microsoft's algorithm for selecting the 16-
+ octet value, but the standard guidelines on randomness [1,2,7] SHOULD
+ be observed.
+
+ Microsoft authenticators do not currently provide information in the
+ Name field. This may change in the future.
+
+
+
+Zorn Informational [Page 3]
+
+RFC 2759 Microsoft MS-CHAP-V2 January 2000
+
+
+4. Response Packet
+
+ The MS-CHAP-V2 Response packet is identical in format to the standard
+ CHAP Response packet. However, the Value field is sub-formatted
+ differently as follows:
+
+ 16 octets: Peer-Challenge
+ 8 octets: Reserved, must be zero
+ 24 octets: NT-Response
+ 1 octet : Flags
+
+ The Peer-Challenge field is a 16-octet random number. As the name
+ implies, it is generated by the peer and is used in the calculation
+ of the NT-Response field, below. Peers need not duplicate
+ Microsoft's algorithm for selecting the 16-octet value, but the
+ standard guidelines on randomness [1,2,7] SHOULD be observed.
+
+ The NT-Response field is an encoded function of the password, the
+ user name, the contents of the Peer-Challenge field and the received
+ challenge as output by the routine GenerateNTResponse() (see section
+ 8.1, below). The Windows NT password is a string of 0 to
+ (theoretically) 256 case-sensitive Unicode [8] characters. Current
+ versions of Windows NT limit passwords to 14 characters, mainly for
+ compatibility reasons; this may change in the future. When computing
+ the NT-Response field contents, only the user name is used, without
+ any associated Windows NT domain name. This is true regardless of
+ whether a Windows NT domain name is present in the Name field (see
+ below).
+
+ The Flag field is reserved for future use and MUST be zero.
+
+ The Name field is a string of 0 to (theoretically) 256 case-sensitive
+ ASCII characters which identifies the peer's user account name. The
+ Windows NT domain name may prefix the user's account name (e.g.
+ "BIGCO\johndoe" where "BIGCO" is a Windows NT domain containing the
+ user account "johndoe"). If a domain is not provided, the backslash
+ should also be omitted, (e.g. "johndoe").
+
+5. Success Packet
+
+ The Success packet is identical in format to the standard CHAP
+ Success packet. However, the Message field contains a 42-octet
+ authenticator response string and a printable message. The format of
+ the message field is illustrated below.
+
+ "S=<auth_string> M=<message>"
+
+
+
+
+
+Zorn Informational [Page 4]
+
+RFC 2759 Microsoft MS-CHAP-V2 January 2000
+
+
+ The <auth_string> quantity is a 20 octet number encoded in ASCII as
+ 40 hexadecimal digits. The hexadecimal digits A-F (if present) MUST
+ be uppercase. This number is derived from the challenge from the
+ Challenge packet, the Peer-Challenge and NT-Response fields from the
+ Response packet, and the peer password as output by the routine
+ GenerateAuthenticatorResponse() (see section 8.7, below). The
+ authenticating peer MUST verify the authenticator response when a
+ Success packet is received. The method for verifying the
+ authenticator is described in section 8.8, below. If the
+ authenticator response is either missing or incorrect, the peer MUST
+ end the session.
+
+ The <message> quantity is human-readable text in the appropriate
+ charset and language [12].
+
+6. Failure Packet
+
+ The Failure packet is identical in format to the standard CHAP
+ Failure packet. There is, however, formatted text stored in the
+ Message field which, contrary to the standard CHAP rules, does affect
+ the operation of the protocol. The Message field format is:
+
+ "E=eeeeeeeeee R=r C=cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc V=vvvvvvvvvv
+M=<msg>"
+
+ where
+
+ The "eeeeeeeeee" is the ASCII representation of a decimal error
+ code (need not be 10 digits) corresponding to one of those listed
+ below, though implementations should deal with codes not on this
+ list gracefully.
+
+ 646 ERROR_RESTRICTED_LOGON_HOURS
+ 647 ERROR_ACCT_DISABLED
+ 648 ERROR_PASSWD_EXPIRED
+ 649 ERROR_NO_DIALIN_PERMISSION
+ 691 ERROR_AUTHENTICATION_FAILURE
+ 709 ERROR_CHANGING_PASSWORD
+
+ The "r" is an ASCII flag set to '1' if a retry is allowed, and '0'
+ if not. When the authenticator sets this flag to '1' it disables
+ short timeouts, expecting the peer to prompt the user for new
+ credentials and resubmit the response.
+
+ The "cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc" is the ASCII representation
+ of a hexadecimal challenge value. This field MUST be exactly 32
+ octets long and MUST be present.
+
+
+
+
+Zorn Informational [Page 5]
+
+RFC 2759 Microsoft MS-CHAP-V2 January 2000
+
+
+ The "vvvvvvvvvv" is the ASCII representation of a decimal version
+ code (need not be 10 digits) indicating the password changing
+ protocol version supported on the server. For MS-CHAP-V2, this
+ value SHOULD always be 3.
+
+ <msg> is human-readable text in the appropriate charset and
+ language [12].
+
+7. Change-Password Packet
+
+ The Change-Password packet does not appear in either standard CHAP or
+ MS-CHAP-V1. It allows the peer to change the password on the account
+ specified in the preceding Response packet. The Change-Password
+ packet should be sent only if the authenticator reports
+ ERROR_PASSWD_EXPIRED (E=648) in the Message field of the Failure
+ packet.
+
+ This packet type is supported by recent versions of Windows NT 4.0,
+ Windows 95 and Windows 98. It is not supported by Windows NT 3.5,
+ Windows NT 3.51, or early versions of Windows NT 4.0, Windows 95 and
+ Windows 98.
+
+ The format of this packet is as follows:
+
+ 1 octet : Code
+ 1 octet : Identifier
+ 2 octets : Length
+ 516 octets : Encrypted-Password
+ 16 octets : Encrypted-Hash
+ 16 octets : Peer-Challenge
+ 8 octets : Reserved
+ 24 octets : NT-Response
+ 2-octet : Flags
+
+ Code
+ 7
+
+ Identifier
+ The Identifier field is one octet and aids in matching requests
+ and replies. The value is the Identifier of the received Failure
+ packet to which this packet responds plus 1.
+
+ Length
+ 586

+
+
+ Encrypted-Password
+ This field contains the PWBLOCK form of the new Windows NT
+ password encrypted with the old Windows NT password hash, as
+ output by the NewPasswordEncryptedWithOldNtPasswordHash() routine
+ (see section 8.9, below).
+
+ Encrypted-Hash
+ This field contains the old Windows NT password hash encrypted
+ with the new Windows NT password hash, as output by the
+ OldNtPasswordHashEncryptedWithNewNtPasswordHash() routine (see
+ section 8.12, below).
+
+ Peer-Challenge
+ A 16-octet random quantity, as described in the Response packet
+ description.
+
+ Reserved
+ 8 octets, must be zero.
+
+ NT-Response
+ The NT-Response field (as described in the Response packet
+ description), but calculated on the new password and the challenge
+ received in the Failure packet.
+
+ Flags
+ This field is two octets in length. It is a bit field of option
+ flags where 0 is the least significant bit of the 16-bit quantity.
+ The format of this field is illustrated in the following diagram:
+
+ 1
+ 5 4 3 2 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ | |

+9. Examples
+
+ The following sections include protocol negotiation and hash
+ generation examples.
+
+9.1. Negotiation Examples
+
+ Here are some examples of typical negotiations. The peer is on the
+ left and the authenticator is on the right.
+
+ The packet sequence ID is incremented on each authentication retry
+ response and on the change password response. All cases where the
+ packet sequence ID is updated are noted below.
+
+ Response retry is never allowed after Change Password. Change
+ Password may occur after response retry.

+
+9.3. Example of DES Key Generation
+
+ DES uses 56-bit keys, expanded to 64 bits by the insertion of parity
+ bits. After the parity of the key has been fixed, every eighth bit
+ is a parity bit and the number of bits that are set (1) in each octet
+ is odd; i.e., odd parity. Note that many DES engines do not check
+ parity, however, simply stripping the parity bits. The following
+ example illustrates the values resulting from the use of the password
+ "MyPw" to generate a pair of DES keys (e.g., for use in the
+ NtPasswordHashEncryptedWithBlock() described in section 8.13).
+
+ 0-to-256-unicode-char Password:
+ 4D 79 50 77
+
+ 16-octet PasswordHash:
+ FC 15 6A F7 ED CD 6C 0E DD E3 33 7D 42 7F 4E AC
+
+ First "raw" DES key (initial 7 octets of password hash):
+ FC 15 6A F7 ED CD 6C
+
+ First parity-corrected DES key (eight octets):
+ FD 0B 5B 5E 7F 6E 34 D9
+
+ Second "raw" DES key (second 7 octets of password hash)
+ 0E DD E3 33 7D 42 7F
+
+ Second parity-corrected DES key (eight octets):
+ 0E 6E 79 67 37 EA 08 FE
+
+10. Security Considerations
+
+ As an implementation detail, the authenticator SHOULD limit the
+ number of password retries allowed to make brute-force password
+ guessing attacks more difficult.
