[cifs-protocol] [MS-NRPC] Problem encrypting data when use AES based Netlogon SChannel

[Moh Yen Liew]

Hi Metze/Mike:
	Finally, I get the AES-based schannel working with windows 2008r2 domain now, thank you for your clue and help! 

	The [MS-NRPC].pdf have following incorrect and misleading information:  
 	1.  The spec (section 3.3.4.2.1 step 8) did not clearly mention how to construct the initialization vector for data encryption. 
	      The correct ivec to use in encrypting the data is 
		seqNum + encrypted(confounder)  
	2. When AES encryption type is negotiated, the auth signature to use is NL_AUTH_SHA2_SIGNATURE (which confounder offset=48), as mentioned in section 2.2.1.3.3  
	     However, one have to put the confounder at offset=24, which is same offset as NL_AUTH_SIGNATURE.  

Thanks,
Yen

Hi,

>    According to MS-NRPC pg 111, bit 17 (indicated as  bit R) of  negotiable flag is actually referring to  "supports the NetrServerPasswordSet2 functionality".  
> In the packet trace that attached earlier, I had successfully negotiated the session key (from pkt 519-523) with the DC using unprotected RPC and established the SChannel.    
> However, when sending the encrypted message (encrypted with AES-key derived from the session key) over Schannel to DC, DC   responded with DCE RPC fault with error = 0x00000721.

Take a look at this branch, it contains working code, at least it worked
a year ago against w2k8r2.

Maybe that helps.
