Source Ports in Abuse Reporting Format (ARF) Reports Abstract This document defines an additional header field for use in Abuse Reporting Format (ARF) reports to permit the identification of the source port of the connection involved in an abuse incident. This document updates RFC 6591. Status of This Memo This is an Internet Standards Track document. This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It represents the consensus of the IETF community. It has received public review and has been approved for publication by the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG). Further information on Internet Standards is available in Section 2 of RFC 5741.

These reports are used to report incidents of email abuse. ARF was extended by [AUTHFAILURE-REPORT] to enable the reporting of email authentication failures. These specifications provided for the source IP address to be included in a report. As explained in [LOG], the deployment of IP address sharing techniques requires the source port values to be included in reports if unambiguous identification of the origin of abuse is to be achieved. This document defines an ARF reporting field to contain this information and provides guidance for its use. 2. Keywords The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [KEYWORDS]. 3. Source-Port Field Definition A new ARF header field called "Source-Port" is defined. When present in a report, it MUST contain the client port of the TCP connection from which the reported message originated, corresponding to the "Source-IP" field that contains the client address of that same connection, thereby describing completely the origin of the abuse incident. Per, [ABNF], the formal syntax is: source-port = "Source-Port:" [CFWS] 1*5DIGIT [CFWS] CRLF

"CFWS", which represents email-style comments or folding white space, is imported from [MAIL]. When any report is generated that includes the "Source-IP" field (see Section 3.2 of [ARF]), this field SHOULD also be present, unless the port number is unavailable. Use of this field is RECOMMENDED for reports generated per [AUTHFAILURE-REPORT] (see Section 3.1 of that document). 4. Time Accuracy [LOG] underscores the importance reports that include source port source ports can be recycled very Provider environments. The same here. of accurate clocks when generating information because of the fact that quickly in Internet Service considerations described there apply

Report generators that include an Arrival-Date report field MAY choose to express the value of that date in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) to enable simpler correlation with local records at sites that are following the provisions of [LOG]. 5. IANA Considerations IANA has added the following entry to the "Feedback Report Header Fields" registry: Field Name: Description: received Source-Port TCP source port from which the original message was

Security Considerations This extension introduces no new security considerations not already covered in [ARF]. Some security considerations related to the general topic of source port logging can be found in [LOG].
