OK, I'm taking a note to make it a MUST in general in the next draft, and we can dial back from there if there are honest, specific use cases where it doesn't make sense.
Thanks. -- Justin On Dec 2, 2014, at 3:35 PM, Bill Mills <wmills_92...@yahoo.com<mailto:wmills_92...@yahoo.com>> wrote: +1 for "Making authentication to the introspection endpoint a MUST if additional attributes are present is OK" On Tuesday, December 2, 2014 12:15 PM, John Bradley <ve7...@ve7jtb.com<mailto:ve7...@ve7jtb.com>> wrote: Many of the proprietary introspection protocols in use return scope, role or other meta data for the RS to make its access policy decision on. One of the reasons for using opaque tokens rather than JWT is to prevent leakage of that info. Making authentication to the introspection endpoint a MUST if additional attributes are present is OK, I might even be inclined to say that authentication of some sort is always required, but that might be going a bit far for some use cases. We have a lot of proprietary ways to do this from IBM, Layer 7, Ping etc. It would be nice if we could standardize it. Precluding other attributes would not be helpful for adoption. One issue that we haven’t addressed in this spec is what happens if there are multiple AS for the RS and how it would decide what introspection endpoint to use. Perhaps that needs to be a extension, leaving this for the simple case. However having more than on e AS per RS is not as unusual as it once was in larger environments. John B.

Doesn't mean you need TLS *into* the RS (C->RS) with a good PoP token. Can you explain how this is related to "act on behalf of"? I don't see any connection. -- Justin On Dec 2, 2014, at 2:09 PM, Bill Mills <wmills_92...@yahoo.com<mailto:wmills_92...@yahoo.com>> wrote: Fetching the public key for a token might be fine, but what if the introspection endpoint returns the symmetric key? Data about the user? Where does this blur the line between this and "act on behalf of"?

The signature and the token identifier are two different things. The identifier doesn't do an attacker any good on its own without the verifiable signature that's associated with it and the request. What I'm saying is that you introspect the identifier and get back something that lets you, the RS, check the signature. -- Justin On Dec 2, 2014, at 1:40 PM, Bill Mills <wmills_92...@yahoo.com<mailto:wmills_92...@yahoo.com>> wrote: "However, I think it's very clear how PoP tokens would work. ..." I don't know if that's true. POP tokens (as yet to be fully defined) would then also have a TLS or transport security requirement unless there is token introspection client auth in play I think. Otherwise I can as an attacker take that toklen and get info about it that might be useful, and I don't think that's what we want. -bill _______________________________________________ OAuth mailing list OAuth@ietf.org<mailto:OAuth@ietf.org> https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/oauth
