A QUIC(K) Way Through Your Firewall?
[article]

pre-print
The QUIC protocol is a new approach to combine encryption and transport layer stream abstraction into one protocol to lower latency and improve security. However, the decision to encrypt transport layer functionality may limit the capabilities of firewalls to protect networks. To identify these limitations we created a test environment and analyzed generated QUIC traffic from the viewpoint of a middlebox. This paper shows that QUIC indeed exposes traditional stateful firewalls to UDP hole
