I prefer the first. In terms of how to document it, we have examples of
that already in IKEv2 spec.

With such a possible attack published, auditors are going to force
large installations to use the safer (and longer) version anyway, as
it is up to the gateway to decide.
Are you saying that currently large installations use the 6-message
version of IKEv2?

Issue #98: 1 or two round trips for resumption
Greetings again. Tracker issue #98 is the same as the message that
Pasi sent to the mailing list last month; see
<http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipsec/current/msg04050.h
tml>. There is disagreement among the authors of the session
resumption draft how to deal with this issue.
One proposal is to add text similar to Pasi's to the document in
order to let implementers understand all the things that they might
need to do to prevent damage from a replay attack. If this is the
method chosen, it should probably be as a section in the main body
of the document, not as a "security consideration" because the
issues are more operational than security.
A different proposal is to get rid of the one-round-trip mode and
have the protocol always take two round trips. This prevents the
attack that Pasi brings up, at a higher cost for the clients and
server.
If you have a preference between these two proposal, please state
it now.
