Method for requesting video stream address, method for authenticating video stream address request, and apparatuses

Abstract

The embodiments of the present invention provide a method for requesting a video stream address, a method for authenticating a video stream address request, and apparatuses. The method for requestingthe video stream address includes the following steps that: an original key value in an encrypted state is acquired from the storage space of a client; the original key value in the encrypted state isdecrypted; the original key value, first information representing target live streaming and second information which is allocated to the client in advance by a live streaming server are encrypted atleast, so that an authentication key value is obtained; a video stream address request containing the authentication key value and the first information is sent to the live streaming server, so that the live streaming server can obtain the pre-stored original key value and the second information, perform encryption on the basis of the original key value, the first information, and the second information so as to obtain a reference key value, and sends a video stream address to the client if the authentication key value is consistent with the reference key value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a method and a device for requesting a video stream address and requesting authentication for the video stream address. Background technique [0002] According to the target live broadcast that the user needs to watch, the client requests the video stream address of the target live broadcast from the live broadcast server, and then pulls the video stream of the target live broadcast from the video stream address for the user to watch. In the prior art, the client sends a video stream address request to the live server, and the request carries a key Key value for authentication. The server checks whether the Key value in the request is consistent with the preset Key value. If the Key value in the request is consistent with the preset Key, the server passes the authentication on the client and returns the video stream address to the client. [0003] However, criminals often int...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, criminals often intercept the Key value from the client through debugging breakpoints, and use the Key value to deceive the live broadcast server to provide the video stream address, and then provide the live video stream address to other people, thus bypassing the live broadcast server to illegally provide live streaming

[0004] Therefore, the existing technology has technical problems of how to improve the security of the client Key value and how to improve the authentication reliability of the video stream request
