<p>XMPP is designed for sending relatively small fragments of XML between network entities (see &xmppcore;) and is not designed for sending binary data. However, sometimes it is desirable to send binary data to another entity that one has discovered on the XMPP network (e.g., to send a file). Therefore it is valuable to have a generic protocol for streaming binary data between any two entities on an XMPP network. The main application for such a bytestreaming technology is file transfer as specified in &xep0096; and &xep0234;. However, other applications are possible, which is why it is important to develop a generic protocol rather than one that is specialized for a particular application such as file transfer.</p>

<p>Note: Because either party can attempt to establish a bytestream (this is formalized in &xep0260;), the Requester and the Target roles apply to a particular S5B negotiation, and do not map to the Initiator and Responder roles from &xep0166; in a fixed way. For example, during a Jingle negotiation the Initiator might first take on the role of an S5B Requester but if that first bytestreams negotiation fails then the Jingle Responder might take on the role of an S5B Requester.</p>

<p>When one occupant of a &xep0045; conference sends an S5B invitation to another occupant, the MUC room obscures the real JID of the Target from the Requester and the real JID of the Requester from the Target. This means that the two parties do not have the same view of the information needed to calculate the DST.ADDR. To overcome this problem, the Requester SHOULD calculate the DST.ADDR based on the SID, its real JID, and the room JID (room@host/nick) of the Target, then include the calculated hash as the value of a 'dstaddr' attribute on the &QUERY; element. The Requester then sends the IQ-set to the Target's room JID because it does not know the Target's real JID.</p>

<p>The <query/> element is the container for all in-band communications. This element MUST be qualified by the "http://jabber.org/protocol/bytestreams" namespace.

<p>An example follows.</p>

<p>The "sid" specifies the bytestream session identifier. The value of this attribute is any character data.</p>

<p>The <streamhost/> element conveys the network connection information. At least one instance MUST be present in the initial IQ-set from the Requester to the Target. If multiple instances of this element are present, each one MUST be a separate host/port combination.</p>

<p>The <query/> element is the container for all in-band communications. This element MUST be qualified by the "http://jabber.org/protocol/bytestreams" namespace. Depending on the use case, this element contains multiple <streamhost/> elements, a single <streamhost-used/> element, or a single <activate/> element.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The 'sid' attribute specifies the bytestream session identifier. The value of this attribute is any character data.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The 'mode' attribute specifies the mode to use, either "tcp" or "udp". If this attribute is not included, the default value of "tcp" MUST be assumed.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The <streamhost/> element conveys the network connection information. At least one instance MUST be present in the initial IQ-set from the Requester to the Target. If multiple instances of this element are present, each one MUST be a separate host/port combination.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The <streamhost-used/> element informs the Requester about the StreamHost to which the Target has connected. It MUST be present in the IQ-set from the Target to the Requester, and there MUST be only one instance.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The <activate/> element is used to request activation of a unidirectional or bidirectional bytestream. It MUST be present in the IQ-set sent from the Requester to the Proxy after the Requester receives an IQ-result from the Target, and there MUST be only one instance.</p>

<p>The <streamhost/> element contains the bytestream connection information. This element has attributes for the StreamHost's JID, network host/address, and network port. This element MUST NOT contain any XML character data or child elements.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The "jid" attribute specifies the StreamHost's JID. This attribute MUST be present, and MUST be a valid JID for communication over XMPP.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The "host" attribute specifies the host to connect to. This attribute MUST be present. The value MUST be either an IPv4 or IPv6 address, or a resolvable DNS domain name.</p>
|
||||||
|
<p>The "port" attribute specifies the port to connect to. This attribute MAY be present. The value MUST be a valid port number in decimal form.</p>

<p>When communicating the available hosts, the Requester MUST the host and port.</p>

<p>This proposal does not include a method for securing or encrypting SOCKS5 bytetreams.

<section2 topic='Session Hijacking' anchor='security-hijack'>
|

|
<p>In the absence of end-to-end encryption of the negotiation stanzas between the Requester and the Target, a passive attacker (eavesdropper) could authenticate to the bytestream before the Target, thus preventing the Target from connecting and also hijacking the data sent from the Requester.</p>

<section2 topic='Denial of Service' anchor='security-dos'>
|
||||||
|
<p>A SOCKS5 Bytestreams Proxy can be subject to denial of service attacks (e.g., generating a large number of session requests that are never activated). A Proxy SHOULD monitor usage from particular Requesters and blacklist them if their usage is excessive.</p>

<p>The use of the SHA-1 algorithm to hash the SID, Requester's JID, and Target's JID is not security-critical. Therefore, the known weaknesses of SHA-1 are not of significant concern in this protocol.</p>
