+Abstract
+
+ This document defines a Pseudo-Random Function (PRF) extension to the
+ Generic Security Service Applicatoin Programming Interface (GSS-API)
+ for keying application protocols given an established GSS-API
+ security context. The primary intended use of this function is to
+ key secure session layers that don't or cannot use GSS-API
+ per-message MIC (message integrity check) and wrap tokens for session
+ protection.

+
+
+2. Introduction
+
+ A need has arisen for users of the GSS-API to key applications'
+ cryptographic protocols using established GSS-API security contexts.
+ Such applications can use the GSS-API for authentication, but not for
+ transport security (for whatever reasons), and since the GSS-API does
+ not provide a method for obtaining keying material from established
+ security contexts such applications cannot make effective use of the
+ GSS-API.
+
+ To address this need we define a pseudo-random function (PRF)
+ extension to the GSS-API.

+3. GSS_Pseudo_random()
+
+ Inputs:
+
+ o context CONTEXT handle,
+ o prf_in OCTET STRING,
+ o desired_output_len INTEGER
+
+ Outputs:
+
+ o major_status INTEGER,
+ o minor_status INTEGER,
+ o prf_out OCTET STRING
+
+ Return major_status codes:
+ o GSS_S_COMPLETE indicates no error.
+ o GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT indicates that a null context has been provided
+ as input.
+ o GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED indicates that an expired context has been
+ provided as input.
+ o GSS_S_UNAVAILABLE indicates that the mechanism lacks support for
+ this function.
+ o GSS_S_FAILURE indicates failure or lack of support; the minor
+ status code may provide additional information.
+
+ This function applies the established context's mechanism's keyed PRF
+ function to the input data (prf_in), keyed with key material
+ associated with the given security context and outputs the resulting
+ octet string (prf_out) of desired_output_len length.
+
+ The output string of this function MUST be a pseudo-random function
+ [GGM1][GGM2] of the input keyed with key material from the
+ established security context -- the chances of getting the same
+ output given different input parameters should be exponentially
+ small.
+
+ This function, applied to the same inputs by an initiator and
+ acceptor using the same established context, MUST produce the *same
+ results* for both, the initiator and acceptor, even if called
+ multiple times for the same context.
+
+ Mechanisms MAY limit the output of the PRF according, possibly in
+ ways related to the types of cryptographic keys available for the PRF
+ function, thus the prf_out output of GSS_Pseudo_random() MAY be
+ smaller than requested.

+
+
+4. Security Considerations
+
+ Care should be taken in properly designing a mechanism's PRF
+ function.
+
+ GSS mechanisms' PRF functions should use a key derived from contexts'
+ session keys and should preserve the forward security properties of
+ the mechanisms' key exchanges.
