      <!--OddPage--><h2><span class="secno">1. </span>Introduction</h2><p><em>This section is non-normative.</em></p>
      <p>
        Various groups have been defining APIs designed to enable
        Web sites and applications access to device resources, including geolocation [<cite><a href="#bib-GEOLOCATION-API" rel="biblioentry" class="bibref">GEOLOCATION-API</a></cite>], personal information such as calendar and contacts [<cite><a href="#bib-CONTACTS-API" rel="biblioentry" class="bibref">CONTACTS-API</a></cite>],
        system information [<cite><a href="#bib-SYSINFOAPI" rel="biblioentry" class="bibref">SYSINFOAPI</a></cite>] such as network information, etc. Much of this information is sensitive and can be misused.</p>

      <p>This document outlines "user story" use cases 
      for security and access 
      control for device APIs and derives requirements from these
      cases. Although security and access control is related to
      privacy, this document does not discuss privacy specifically as
      there is another document specific to privacy [<cite><a href="#bib-DAP-PRIVACY-REQS" rel="biblioentry" class="bibref">DAP-PRIVACY-REQS</a></cite>].
      </p> 

      <div class="section" id="defs">
	<h3><span class="secno">1.1 </span>Definition</h3>
        <p>A <dfn id="dfn-non-safe-api">non-safe API</dfn> is an API that shares sensitive
        user information or makes a commitment for the user to a
        third-party (e.g. paying a fee).</p>

    <div id="interactions" class="informative section">
      <!--OddPage--><h2><span class="secno">2. </span>Access Control Interactions</h2><p><em>This section is non-normative.</em></p>
      <p>Three main types of interactions have been identified for
      controlling access to non-safe APIS:</p> 
      <ul>
        <li>based on granular user consent, for every first call of a sensitive API,</li>
        <li>based on user consent for a set of APIs at once, packaged into a single interaction (e.g. at “installation” time),</li>
        <li>or delegated by the user to a third party that sets new default interactions for APIs based on the requesting script.</li>
      </ul>

      <p>These interactions can be relevant both for a Web site accessed through a browser, or an installable Web application (e.g. a widget [<cite><a href="#bib-WIDGETS" rel="biblioentry" class="bibref">WIDGETS</a></cite>]) accessed through a dedicated runtime engine.</p>

    <div class="section" id="userconsent">
      <h3><span class="secno">2.1 </span>Granular User Consent</h3>
      <div class="section" id="userconsent-story-1">
        <h4><span class="secno">2.1.1 </span>User Story: Unknown restaurant Web site</h4>
	<div class="story">
	<p>Alice uses her browser to get more information on a restaurant her friends have told her about. The Web site of the restaurant offers to give her indications on how to come from where she stands to their location, as well as to send automatically a SMS to reserve a table for lunch.</p>
	<p>Alice follows a link to the direction page, and her browser
	asks her unintrusively to confirm she wants to share her current
	location with the map service provider embedded in the Web
	restaurant site. After considering issues related to sharing this
	information, she decides to share her current location. Upon consenting to sharing her location through the browser, she gets detailed directions to the restaurant.</p>
	<p>Her browser then displays a non-modal prompt asking if she wants to send an SMS to make a reservation at the restaurant. She is not interested and simply ignores the prompt.</p>
	</div>
	<h4 id="analysis">Analysis</h4>

	<p>Access to non-safe APIs from web pages or applications with
	which the user has no pre-established relationship must only be
	granted after explicit user consent, and that consent needs to be
	granted for each non-safe API separately. Note that it isn't
	obvious whether this consent is truly informed, or that the user
	understands all the issues involved. This is discussed further
	elsewhere [<cite><a href="#bib-DAP-PRIVACY-REQS" rel="biblioentry" class="bibref">DAP-PRIVACY-REQS</a></cite>].</p> 

	<p>The user may need to gather more information before making a decision on granting access to a given API: e.g. reading the site privacy policy or getting more information on what the collected data will be used for. To make it possible for the user to make an informed decision, the user consent interactions need to be non-blocking.</p>

	</div>
      <div class="section" id="userconsent-story-2">
	<h4><span class="secno">2.1.2 </span>User Story: Widget of unknown source using the camera</h4>
	<div class="story">
	<p>Bob receives from Alice a mobile widget that she says is used to create a crowd-sourced view of their city. While Bob trusts Alice, he is not sure how trustable that particular widget is.</p>
	<p>He runs it in his widget runtime engine in untrusted mode; the widget is only able to take pictures when Bob explicitly press the shutter button of the phone; the geolocation of the pictures is only sent along with the pictures when Bob agrees to it.</p>
	</div>
	<h4 id="analysis-1">Analysis</h4>

        <p>
          An un-trusted widget (e.g.. unsigned widget or widget signed by an
          unknown or untrusted authority) should be treated in the
          same manner as an unknown web site, since the risks
          are the same.</p>


	<p>To make it easier for the user to understand what he is
    granting access to, the access control interactions need to be as
    integrated as possible as a part of the task specific workflow,
    thus not necessarily appearing as a permission dialog. Relying on
    the user pressing the shutter button to take a picture is more
    effective than asking him if he agrees with sharing a picture.</p> 

        <p>Prompts should be eliminated whenever possible. Many prompts do not provide  any meaningful security because:</p> 
          <ul>
            <li>they don't provide the user with the information
            needed to make an 
            informed security decision;</li>
            <li>with modal prompts, the user is inclined simply to
            dismiss the prompt and permit the operation 
            just because that's what's needed for the application to
            continue.</li>
          </ul>

        <p>
          If prompts are shown and dismissed as a matter of routine,
          then the user is 
          less inclined to take any security decision seriously, which further
          undermines the effectiveness of a user-driven access control system.

        <h4><span class="secno">2.2.1 </span>User Story: Web application for email</h4>
	<div class="story">
	<p>Alice uses a Web application as her email client, and considers it trustable.</p>
	<p>Her service provider offers to use a set of advanced features that requires access to off-line storage, addressbook integration, access to a dedicated storage space on her device, and interactions through the microphone.</p>
	<p>Rather than being prompted every so often to grant permission to use these features, Alice is offered to approve all these accesses in a batch, as part of an installation procedure that identifies these extra-permissions.</p>
	<p>Alice follows that procedure and is no longer prompted for these permissions for this application; she still gets prompted when her email client asks for her geolocation since that permission was not part of the batch approval.</p>
	</div>

	<h4 id="analysis-2">Analysis</h4>

	<p>Once a user has established a certain level of trust with a service provider, she is more likely to want to approve permissions as a batch rather than having to respond to prompt every so often that might slow down her work, or might make her miss an additional feature of the application.</p>

	<p>Similarly, the user can be offered to validate a set of permissions in a batch when installing a widget, where the permissions can be identified through the <code>feature</code> element [<cite><a href="#bib-WIDGETS" rel="biblioentry" class="bibref">WIDGETS</a></cite>].</p>

	<p>To that end, the various permissions that are bound to APIs need to identified.</p>

	<p>To establish trust, a few basic parameters may be used, among which:</p>
	<ul>
	  <li><dfn id="dfn-identity">identity</dfn>&nbsp;— ensuring that the privileges are granted to the application from the trusted provider itself, to avoid phishing attacks;</li>
	  <li><dfn id="dfn-reputation">reputation</dfn>&nbsp;— if others have reviewed positively an application, the user is more likely to trust it; reputation is itself linked to identity, either as a way to identify the source of the recommandation (e.g. approval from a network operator), or as a way to identify the aggregator of recommendations;</li>
	  <li><dfn id="dfn-context">context</dfn>&nbsp;— a user is more likely to trust an application that requests permissions that make sense to her use of the said application.</li>
	</ul>

        <p>
          Identity and reputation may be established in different ways; one of the most common being
          through a validated signature on the widget or application package,
          with a corresponding verification of the trust chain to a trusted root.

	<p>In many professional contexts, allowing access to private or sensors data available through connected devices creates an unacceptable risk.</p>
	<p>In these contexts, being able to enforce and update a policy that determines who can make use of these data across devices and platforms can be a decisive aspect of the adoption of a given technology.</p>
	<p>To that end, it should be possible to describe
	platform-independent and declarative policies that determine which
	APIs can be used from what Web site or application.</p>

Remembering earlier decisions and
maintaining these choices when changing devices either across vendors or
device versions has value to the user. This may also be the case when
wishing to have the same choices on multple devices. It should be
possible to transfer or share a 
representation of user choices across devices at any time.

        <p>
          The landscape that is being created 
          is the enablement of
          cross-platform, cross-device, easy to develop, highly functional
          applications based on browser technology. Experience with
          security attacks suggests that the increase of scope and
          power of the Device APIs raises the potential for attacks of
          increasing significance. This section outlines some known threats.
        </p>
        <p>
          Up until now no major malware incident
          has affected the mobile industry, but risks increase as
          adoption and convergence increases. There have been attempts: the
          MMS-spreading Commwarrior virus is probably the most infamous, along
          with the Spyware tool, Flexispy. An additional factor in
          avoiding mobile security issues to date has been the fact that
          mobile platforms have been too fragmented and complex
          to provide an attractive target. Existing modus
          operandi from technology-related attacks can provide indicators
          as to the types of attack and abuse that can be expected on
          widgets and web applications as device APIs are opened up
          and the size of the mobile market increases.

        <div class="section" id="premium-rate-abuse">
          <h3><span class="secno">A.1 </span>Premium Rate Abuse</h3>
          <p>A widget that seems benign but is actually spewing out
          SMSs to premium rate numbers without the user’s
          knowledge. This could be modified from an original safe
          widget such as a game. For the malware author, the key
          piece to solve is to dupe the user into thinking that the
          SMS capability is something that is part of the original
          application. Examples of this have been seen in the past,
          created from games and this model could be used for
          ‘dialers’ too (which plagued the desktop world in the
          days of dial-up networking). There have been recent
          warnings about this kind of abuse from security firms.

        <div class="section" id="privacy-breach">
          <h3><span class="secno">A.2 </span>Privacy Breach</h3>
          <p>An application that gains access to locations, contacts
          and gallery, silently uploading the data in the background
          to a site owned by the attacker. This is something that
          has been a clear goal for attackers already. There have
          been numerous high-profile examples in the past in the
          mobile world. Celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Miley
          Cyrus and Lindsay Lohan have all had private pictures,
          phone numbers and voicemails stolen from devices or
          networks in clear breach of their privacy. There has been
          embarrassment for teachers who had their pictures and
          videos copied by the children in their class and spread
          around school. The most high-profile case in the UK of a
          mobile related privacy breach was that of the News of the
          World's use of voicemail hacking to gain access to private
          information about Royalty. The Royal editor, Clive Goodman
          was jailed for four months and the editor, Andy Coulson
          resigned over this blatant privacy breach. Given the
          appetite for breaching privacy, users need to be safe in
          the knowledge that their personal data will not leak in
          any way. 
          </p>
<p>
Another example is turning on the camera or audio remotely to obtain
audio, video or photo information without permission.

          <h3><span class="secno">A.3 </span>Integrity Breach</h3>
          <p>A widget that replaces the voicemail number with a
          premium rate number instead? There are number of reasons
          why an attacker would want to breach the integrity of
          the device. Simply changing the telephone number of the
          voicemail that is stored on the device could be enough
          to make an attacker a lot of money. Users usually have a
          shortcut key to their voicemail and may not notice for a
          long time that anything is wrong. A more sinister use
          could be to plant evidence on a device. Pictures, files
          and even criminal contacts could potentially be
          anonymously planted all without the user's consent or
          knowledge. Proving innocence could suddenly become very
          difficult. 
          There are also a number of reasons why somebody would want to steal
          data. The contents of corporate e-mails would be very
          interesting to a competitor, as would sabotaging data
          stored in spreadsheets and presentations on the target
          phone.

          <h3><span class="secno">A.4 </span>Phishing</h3>
          <p>
            Widgets contain web content making it is easy to duplicate
            and masquerade as something legitimate… perhaps a bank? 
          </p>
          <p> 
            In January 2010, Google removed a number of applications
            from the Android Market which were supposed to be banking
            applications for a number of different banks worldwide. It
            is unclear whether these applications were intentional
            phishing applications. The removal was based on a breach
            of terms and conditions surrounding copyright. The episode
            however highlighted the phishing potential. Widgets
            contain web content, therefore it is very easy to
            duplicate the look and feel of something that  the user
            trusts and proceed to abuse that trust either by stealing
            credentials or by manipulating money transfers.

            These are of course just examples to consider in relation to how we
            would manage the policies for device APIs and are of course not
            exhaustive. Alongside the device-API specific examples
            above, we still 
             need to consider traditional web threats which pose a
            significant risk 
and lots of other types of attack which should be considered in a 
 formal threat model.
