This document specifies enhancements to the Constrained Application
Protocol (CoAP) that mitigate security issues in particular use
cases. The Echo option enables a CoAP server to verify the freshness
of a request or to force a client to demonstrate reachability at its
claimed network address. The Request-Tag option allows the CoAP
server to match block-wise message fragments belonging to the same
request. This document updates RFC 7252 with respect to the
following: processing requirements for client Tokens, forbidding
non-secure reuse of Tokens to ensure response-to-request binding when
CoAP is used with a security protocol, and amplification mitigation
(where the use of the Echo option is now recommended).
This document is a product of the Constrained RESTful Environments Working
Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
