CORBA34 — Server Authentication

Open Closed All
  • Key: CORBA34-301
  • Legacy Issue Number: 6312
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Adiron, LLC ( Polar Humenn)
  • Summary:

    As I understood it, the Firewall Traversal specification was to use new
    CSIv2 Compound Identity types to give the target server the complex
    principal composed of the client and the authenticating firewall traversal
    path. The server was to be authenticated to the client in much the same
    way. This functionality appears to be missing in the specification. It is
    easily fixed by returning a CSIv2 IdentityTokenSeq from a successful
    firewall negotiation, specifying the backwards firewall authentication
    trail from the server to the client.
