radius-audit - A RADIUS authentication server audit tool
radius-audit allows to conduct configuration audits of RADIUS (RFC 2865) servers setup as authentication servers in a 802.1X environment.
More specifically, radius-audit can help auditing the TLS (RFC 5246) configuration of a RADIUS server, as well as discovering authorized EAP (RFC 3748) authentication methods. It can be used by network or system administrators to check the configuration of a RADIUS server, or by pentesters conducting a security audit.
Installation
This tool is based on Scapy. A recent version of Scapy is recommended. It can be installed as described in the official documentation.
The requirements.txt
file contains the list of packages required in order to run radius-audit. Apart from Scapy, the current version of the tool only requires pyroute2. pyroute2 is used to setup network interfaces, and to benefit from the nl80211 drivers of the Linux kernel.
Note that radius-audit is compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3.
Usage
Available arguments are given in the help message (-h
argument). The different types of scans that radius-audit can perform are described in the following sections.
Wired 802.1X or Wi-Fi
The iface
argument is mandatory, and is used to provide the network interface that will be used to send and receive the Ethernet frames on a wired network, or to send the 802.11 frames when auditing a wireless network.
TLS configuration audit
TLS scan example
The following example shows how to start a TLS scan.
ra -iface eth0 --tls-scan
In case of error, an EAP Failure
response is sent, without any hint regarding the cause of the error. For this reason, in order to make sure that a specific SSL / TLS version is not supported, one has to loop through all the available ciphersuites.
Several other options are available. For example, it is possible to start the scan from a specific TLS version (up to TLS 1.2, starting from SSLv2) using the -min-tls-version
command line argument. The first SSL / TLS version for which measurements will be performed can be one of the following: sslv2
, sslv3
, tls10
, tls11
, tls12
. The following example shows how to launch a scan starting from TLS 1.1:
ra -iface eth0 --tls-scan -min-tls-version tls11
TLS - Specific TLS versions and ciphersuites
The user can provide specific SSL/TLS versions and ciphersuites using the -tls-versions
and -tls-ciphers
options:
ra -iface eth0 -tls-versions tls10,tls11,tls12 -tls-ciphers 0x0033,0x0035,0x0039,0xc013,0xc014,0x002f,0xc030

TLS - Test with a specific "TLS-based" EAP authentication method
By default, radius-audit will use the EAP-TLS method to perform the scan. However, it is possible to use another "TLS-based EAP" method by adding the -with-eap-method
command line argument. In the following example, the EAP-TTLS authentication method will be used.
ra -iface eth0 -tls-versions tls12 -tls-ciphers 0x002f -with-eap-method ttls
Accepted TLS 1.2 TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
radius-audit is able to perform scans for the following "TLS-based" EAP methods:
Phase 1 authentication - Supported EAP methods enumeration
radius-audit allows to enumerate "phase 1" EAP authentication methods that are available. The following example shows how to perform such a scan using the --discover-phase-1
command line argument:
ra -iface eth0 --discover-phase-1

This example shows that the targeted RADIUS server seem to support several "TLS-based" EAP authentication methods: EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, PEAP, and EAP-FAST.
At the beginning of the authentication process, when an EAP request for a given authentication method is received, radius-audit assumes that this method is supported by the authentication server. radius-audit then tries to restart the authentication process with another method using the desired authentication type in a Legacy Nak
response. This allows to speed up the enumeration process when a given authentication method is supported.
A few examples
Use a wireless interface
radius-audit can be used on a Wi-Fi network. In order to do so, the SSID must be given by the user via the-ssid
command line argument.
ra -iface wlan1 -ssid demo-wpa2-eap --tls-scan
If an attempt is made to perform a scan on a Wi-Fi network which does not support 802.1X authentication (PSK), a warning message is issued:
ra -iface wlan1 -ssid demo-wpa2-psk --discover-phase-1
WARNING: (demo-wpa2-psk) AKM is not IEEE 802.1X / PMKSA caching.
Specify an identity
The -identity
command line argument allows to perform the scan with a user-defined identity. When it is not provided, anonymous
is used as a default value. The identity
is sent in response to the EAP Identity
request that begins the EAP authentication process.
ra -iface eth0 -identity johndoe --tls-scan
Output format
The --json-output
command line argument can be used to print the results in JSON format:
ra -iface eth0 --tls-scan -min-tls-version tls11 --json-output

How to speed up the scanning process ?
An administrator may be able to tune the timers available on the authenticator (switch, Wi-Fi access point) or on the server. For example, the quietPeriod timer value on the authenticators may be decreased in order to speed up the process (for more information, one can read the IEEE Std 802.1X-2004 standard). On Cisco switches, the following command, applied to an interface, allows to decrease the quietPeriod to 1 second.
sw(config-if)# dot1x timeout quiet-period 1
