However, especially malicious entry nodes, which know the client's identity, can also observe the whole communication on their link to the client and, thus, conduct several de-anonymization attacks. To limit this exposure and to impede corresponding attacks, we propose to multipath traffic between the client and the middle node to reduce the information an attacker can obtain at a single vantage point. To facilitate the deployment, only clients and selected middle nodes need to implement our approach, which works transparently for the remaining legacy nodes. Furthermore, we let clients control the splitting strategy to prevent any external manipulation.}, language = {en} } @misc{HillerPennekampDahlmannsetal., author = {Hiller, Jens and Pennekamp, Jan and Dahlmanns, Markus and Henze, Martin and Panchenko, Andriy and Wehrle, Klaus}, title = {Tailoring Onion Routing to the Internet of Things: Security and Privacy in Untrusted Environments}, series = {Proceedings of the 27th annual IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols (IEEE ICNP 2019), Chicago, Illinois, USA, October 2019}, journal = {Proceedings of the 27th annual IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols (IEEE ICNP 2019), Chicago, Illinois, USA, October 2019}, publisher = {IEEE Press}, isbn = {978-1-7281-2700-2}, issn = {2643-3303}, doi = {10.1109/ICNP.2019.8888033}, pages = {12}, abstract = {An increasing number of IoT scenarios involve mobile, resource-constrained IoT devices that rely on untrusted networks for Internet connectivity. In such environments, attackers can derive sensitive private information of IoT device owners, e.g., daily routines or secret supply chain procedures, when sniffing on IoT communication and linking IoT devices and owner. Furthermore, untrusted networks do not provide IoT devices with any protection against attacks from the Internet. Anonymous communication using onion routing provides a well-proven mechanism to keep the relationship between communication partners secret and (optionally) protect against network attacks. However, the application of onion routing is challenged by protocol incompatibilities and demanding cryptographic processing on constrained IoT devices, rendering its use infeasible. To close this gap, we tailor onion routing to the IoT by bridging protocol incompatibilities and offloading expensive cryptographic processing to a router or web server of the IoT device owner. Thus, we realize resource-conserving access control and end-toend security for IoT devices. To prove applicability, we deploy onion routing for the IoT within the well-established Tor network enabling IoT devices to leverage its resources to achieve the same grade of anonymity as readily available to traditional devices.}, language = {en} } @misc{PennekampHenzeHohlfeldetal., author = {Pennekamp, Jan and Henze, Martin and Hohlfeld, Oliver and Panchenko, Andriy}, title = {Hi Doppelg{\"a}nger: Towards Detecting Manipulation in News Comments}, series = {Companion Proceedings of the 2019 World Wide Web Conference (WWW '19 Companion), 4th Workshop on Computational Methods in Online Misbehavior (CyberSafety '19), May 13-17, 2019, San Francisco, CA, USA}, journal = {Companion Proceedings of the 2019 World Wide Web Conference (WWW '19 Companion), 4th Workshop on Computational Methods in Online Misbehavior (CyberSafety '19), May 13-17, 2019, San Francisco, CA, USA}, publisher = {ACM}, address = {New York}, isbn = {978-1-4503-6675-5}, doi = {10.1145/3308560.3316496}, pages = {197 -- 205}, language = {en} } @misc{HillerHenzeZimmermannetal., author = {Hiller, Jens and Henze, Martin and Zimmermann, Torsten and Hohlfeld, Oliver and Wehrle, Klaus}, title = {The Case for Session Sharing: Relieving Clients from TLS Handshake Overheads}, series = {2019 IEEE 44th LCN Symposium on Emerging Topics in Networking (LCN Symposium), 14-17 Oct. 2019, Osnabr{\"u}ck, Germany}, journal = {2019 IEEE 44th LCN Symposium on Emerging Topics in Networking (LCN Symposium), 14-17 Oct. 2019, Osnabr{\"u}ck, Germany}, publisher = {IEEE}, isbn = {978-1-7281-2561-9}, doi = {10.1109/LCNSymposium47956.2019.9000667}, pages = {9}, abstract = {In recent years, the amount of traffic protected with Transport Layer Security (TLS) has significantly increased and new protocols such as HTTP/2 and QUIC further foster this emerging trend. However, protecting traffic with TLS has significant impacts on network entities. While the restrictions for middleboxes have been extensively studied, addressing the impact of TLS on clients and servers has been mostly neglected so far. Especially mobile clients in emerging 5G and IoT deployments suffer from significantly increased latency, traffic, and energy overheads when protecting traffic with TLS. In this paper, we address this emerging topic by thoroughly analyzing the impact of TLS on clients and servers and derive opportunities for significantly decreasing latency of TLS communication and downsizing TLS management traffic, thereby also reducing TLSinduced server load. We propose a protocol compatible redesign of TLS session management to use these opportunities and showcase their potential based on mobile device traffic and mobile web-browsing traces. These show promising potentials for latency improvements by up to 25.8\% and energy savings of up to 26.3\%.}, language = {en} } @misc{PennekampHenzeZinnenetal., author = {Pennekamp, Jan and Henze, Martin and Zinnen, Andreas and Lanze, Fabian and Wehrle, Klaus and Panchenko, Andriy}, title = {CUMUL \& Co: High-Impact Artifacts for Website Fingerprinting Research}, series = {38th Annual Computer Security Applications Conference (ACSAC 2022), Austin, Texas, USA, December 5-9, 2022.}, journal = {38th Annual Computer Security Applications Conference (ACSAC 2022), Austin, Texas, USA, December 5-9, 2022.}, pages = {6}, abstract = {Anonymous communication on the Internet is about hiding the relationship between communicating parties. At NDSS '16, we presented a new website fingerprinting approach, CUMUL, that utilizes novel features and a simple yet powerful algorithm to attack anonymization networks such as Tor. Based on pattern observation of data flows, this attack aims at identifying the content of encrypted and anonymized connections. Apart from the feature generation and the used classifier, we also provided a large dataset to the research community to study the attack at Internet scale. In this paper, we emphasize the impact of our artifacts by analyzing publications referring to our work with respect to the dataset, feature extraction method, and source code of the implementation. Based on this data, we draw conclusions about the impact of our artifacts on the research field and discuss their influence on related cybersecurity topics. Overall, from 393 unique citations, we discover more than 130 academic references that utilize our artifacts, 61 among them are highly influential (according to SemanticScholar), and at least 43 are from top-ranked security venues.
