Thanks for taking the time to propose specific text, Phil.  That’s really 
helpful.  I’ll plan to incorporate a version of this in the draft addressing 
WGLC comments.

I agree with Vladimir’s observation that it’s difficult to come up with a 
general-purpose resource discovery mechanism.  That in part, is because, as 
Brian points out, there’s often not a 1:1 relationship between authorization 
servers and resource servers.  As I’ve written before, I do encourage the 
working group to work on creating solutions to resource discovery that will 
work for some common use cases.  But the good news is that while resource 
discovery requires new invention, authorization server discovery does not.

The name change seems appropriate given that the WG members have decided not to

If the consensus is to limit the scope of the specification, then I suggest the 
following security considerations text.



Resource Discovery



Secure discovery of resource endpoints is out-of-scope of this specification. 
This specification assumes that the client has already securely discovered the 
correct resource endpoint and that the client has correctly selected the 
correct corresponding discovery for OAuth Authorization server. Implementers 
MUST consider that if an incorrect resource endpoint was discovered by the 
client that an attacker will be able to set up a man-in-the-middle proxy to a 
real resource server without detection by the authorization server or the 
client.

I support that. This was the primary concern of everyone who felt uncomfortable 
with the original draft with WebFinger-based discovery in it, so it should be 
included.







It may be more appropriate to even include this text in the introduction as a 
cautionary "red flag" to implementers.
+1







Once again, I strongly urge the WG to actually include a method for the client 
to discovery that the oauth cliet has correctly discovered an authorization 
server that is willing and able to issue access tokens for a given resource 
endpoint. I believe this relationship is critical to security of OAuth in cases 
where resource endpoints are discovered dynamically.  Of course willing and 
able means that the AS believes that the endpoint is legitimate.

The more I think about this topic, the more pessimistic I get that there is a 
good solution to this :)

Thanks for your thoughts, Vladimir.  I’m increasingly inclined to accept your 
suggestion to change the title from “OAuth 2.0 Discovery” to “OAuth 2.0 
Authorization Server Discovery”.  While the abstract already makes it clear 
that the scope of the document is AS discovery, doing so in the title seems 
like it could help clarify things, given that a lot of the discussion seems to 
be about resource discovery, which is out of scope of the document.







I’m not saying that resource discovery isn’t important – it is – but unlike 
authorization server discovery, where there’s lots of existing practice, 
including using the existing data format for describing OAuth implementations 
that aren’t being used with OpenID Connect, there’s no existing practice to 
standardize for resource discovery.  The time to create a standard for that 
seems to be after existing practice has emerged.  It *might* or might not use 
new metadata values in the AS discovery document, but that’s still to be 
determined.  The one reason to leave the title as-is is that resource discovery 
might end up involving extensions to this metadata format in some cases.







I think an analogy to the core OAuth documents RFC 6749 and RFC 6750 applies.  
6749 is about the AS.  6750 is about the RS.  The discovery document is about 
the AS.  We don’t yet have a specification or existing practice for RS 
discovery, which would be the 6750 analogy.







In summary, which title do people prefer?



·       “OAuth 2.0 Discovery”



·       “OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server Discovery”

Subject: Re: [OAUTH-WG] OAuth 2.0 Discovery Location







In OIDC the discovery doc is of great utility to developers and integrators. 
Developers also tend to find it a more accurate and complete description of how 
to set up a client for a particular deployment, compared to traditional online 
docs, which may be not be up to date, or even missing. Very much like 
auto-generated Swagger and JavaDocs.



Here are some example OIDC discovery docs:



https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration 
<https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration><https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration>



https://www.paypalobjects.com/.well-known/openid-configuration 
<https://www.paypalobjects.com/.well-known/openid-configuration><https://www.paypalobjects.com/.well-known/openid-configuration>



https://login.microsoftonline.com/fabrikamb2c.onmicrosoft.com/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration
 
<https://login.microsoftonline.com/fabrikamb2c.onmicrosoft.com/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration><https://login.microsoftonline.com/fabrikamb2c.onmicrosoft.com/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration>





With this discovery document in place setup of identity federation can then be 
easily scripted. For example:



http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_providers_create_oidc_verify-thumbprint.html
 
<http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_providers_create_oidc_verify-thumbprint.html><http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_providers_create_oidc_verify-thumbprint.html>





Now, does that dictate any particular app architecture? My reading of the spec 
is that it doesn't, and it shouldn't either. By staying neutral on the topics 
of RS discovery and registering RPs with RSs. And how one arrives at the 
".well-known/...". I'm not even sure that resource discovery should be a topic 
of this WG. Perhaps to this end, and to prevent confusion that the spec is 
trying to do something more, a more specific title would suit it better. E.g. 
"AS Discovery".

I agree that for some OAuth profiles, one or more resource servers will have to

have also described wanting to discover authorization servers starting from 
resource servers.  There isn’t a standard practice for any of this, which is 
why it’s intentionally left out of the current specification.



Once the IANA OAuth Discovery Metadata Registry has been established, which 
will happen after the current specification has been approved, it will be easy 
for subsequent specifications to document existing practice for different OAuth 
profiles and register discovery metadata values supporting them.  Some of those 
values will likely define ways to discover resource servers, when applicable.



But first, we need to finish the existing spec, so that the registry enabling 
these extensions gets established in the first place.

None of Nat or John or I are suggesting that additional related functionality

will possibly use application-specific .well-known values.  I’m sure there’s 
other things I haven’t even thought about.  All of these depend upon having a

possibly to register additional discovery metadata values.



So by all means, the working group should continue discussing inventing 
possible new related mechanisms that make sense in some contexts.  At the same 
time, we can finish standardizing the already widely deployed core 
functionality that all of these mechanisms will need.

I am suggesting that part of the discovery solution has to be the client 
indicating what resource endpoint it wants the oauth configuration data for.



So if res.example.evil.com 
<http://res.example.evil.com/><http://res.example.evil.com/> is not a valid 
resource endpoint for as.example.com 
<http://as.example.com/><http://as.example.com/> the authz discovery should 
fail in some way (eg return nothing).



There may be better ways to do this. Eg combine discovery. Or change the order 
of discovery.



One of OAuth's strength's and weaknesses is that the target of authorization 
(the resource) is never specified. It is often bound up in the client 
registration and an often implied 1:1 relationship between resource and as. 
Given that in discovery phase registration has not yet occurred it seems 
important that the client know it has a valid combination of endpoints etc.



This is why I was disappointed about wglc on discovery. We had a starting point 
for group adoption but we haven't really defined the full requirements IMO.



I am on vacation or I would put some thought into some draft changes or a new 
draft. I apologize I can't do it now.

The way oauth-meta works is that



1. RS tells the client where the AS is.

2. AS tells the client which RS endpoints the token can be used.



Even if there is a bad AS with a valid certs that proxies to the good RS, the 
client will not send the token there as the authz server will say that is not 
the place the client may want to send the token to.

Nat,



I’m not sure that having the resource server tell the client where its 
authorization server is secure by itself. The relationship between the 
Authorization Server and the Resource server need to be bound together in one 
of the discovery endpoints (the resource and/or the oauth service discovery).



If a client discovers a fake resource server that is proxying for a real 
resource server the current discovery spec will not lead the client to 
understand it has the wrong resource server. Rather the fake resource service 
will just have a fake discovery service. The hacker can now intercept resource 
payload as well as tokens because they were able to convince the client to use 
the legit authorization service but use the token against the hackers proxy.



The OAuth Discovery service needs to confirm to the client that the server is 
able to issue tokens for a stated resource endpoint.



This not only works in normal OAuth but should add security even to UMA 
situations.

Couldn't the document only describe the metadata?

I quite like the idea of draft-sakimura-oauth-meta if you really want to do 
discovery, and leave it open to implementers / to other specs to define a 
.well-known URL for "auto-configuration".

The metadata described here would then either be used as-is, at any URL, 
returned as draft-sakimura-oauth-meta metadata at the RS; or as a basis for 
other metadata specs (like OpenID Connect).

With draft-sakimura-oauth-meta's "duri" and the "scope" attribute of 
WWW-Authenticate response header, you have everything you need to proceed



Yup. That's one of the requirements to be RESTful, is it not?



In OAuth's case, the resource and the authorization server are usually tightly 
coupled. (Otherwise, you need another specs like UMA.)

So, the resource server should be able to tell either the location of the authz 
endpoint. In some trusted environment, the resource may as well return the 
location of the authz server configuration data. In these cases, you do not 
have to decide on what .well-known uri as you say. This frees up developers 
from configuration file location collisions etc. We should strive not to 
pollute the uri space as much as possible.



(well, except if there are several ASs each with different scopes; sounds like 
an edge-case to me though; maybe RFC6750 should instead be updated with such a 
parameter such that an RS could return several WWW-Authenticate: Bearer, each 
with its own "scope" and "duri" value?)



Yeah, I guess it is an edge case. I would rather like to see these authz 
servers to develop a trust framework under which they can agree on a single set 
of common scope parameter values.

Nat
