Analyzing Internet security protocols
Alec Yasinsac, J. Childs · 2002
In this paper, we show how a novel tool for analyzing classical cryptographic protocols can be used to model and analyze the more complex Internet security protocol families. We discuss the modifications that were necessary in the tool and how the tool illuminates flaws in the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. We also show how a flaw carried over to TLS from the Secure Sockets Layer protocol (the predecessor of TLS) was illustrated using our tool.
