AddAVPair(T, Id, Value)

An auxiliary function that is used to manage AV pairs in NTLM messages. It is defined as follows.

 AddAvPair(T,   Id, Value) {
       STRING T
       USHORT Id
       STRING Value
       T = ConcatenationOf(T, Id)
       T = ConcatenationOf(T, Length(Value))
       T = ConcatenationOf(T, Value)
 }
 

3.2.5.1.1

ComputeResponse(...)

A function that computes the NT response, LM responses, and key exchange key from the response keys and challenge.

3.1.5.1.2, 3.2.5.1.2, 3.3.1, 3.3.2

ConcatenationOf(string1, string2, ... stringN)

Indicates the left-to-right concatenation of the string parameters, from the first string to the Nnth. Any numbers are converted to strings and all numeric conversions to strings retain all digits, even nonsignificant ones. The result is a string. For example, ConcatenationOf(0x00122, "XYZ", "Client") results in the string "00122XYZClient."

Indicates a 32-bit CRC calculated over M.

3.4.3, 3.4.4

DES(K, D)

Indicates the encryption of an 8-byte data item D with the 7-byte key K using the Data Encryption Standard (DES) algorithm in Electronic Codebook (ECB) mode. The result is 8 bytes in length ([FIPS46-2]).

3.3.1, 3.4.5.1

DESL(K, D)

Indicates the encryption of an 8-byte data item D with the 16-byte key K using the Data Encryption Standard Long (DESL) algorithm. The result is 24 bytes in length. DESL(K, D) is computed as follows.

 ConcatenationOf(   DES(K[0..6], D), \
 DES(K[7..13],   D), DES( \
 ConcatenationOf(K[14..15],   Z(5)), D));

Note K[] implies a key represented as a character array.
