However, we have also observed that SRv6 is beginning to extend toward customer site devices, e.g., SD-WAN and enterprise network deployments. Both of the scenarios can be deployed in third-party clouds or at customer sites. This introduces certain security risks, such as packet injection and path manipulation attacks. Section 6 of {[}I-D.draft-ietf-spring-srv6-security{]} identifies these risks as well, including Section 6.2.1 on Modification Attacks and Section 6.2.3 on Packet Insertion. This proposal mitigates these risks by enhancing the HMAC mechanism defined in {[}RFC8754{]}.}, }
