It could, but that would require an explicit decision by the OpenID Connect working group to make existing RPs incompatible with new OPs, breaking interoperability. That’s not a decision we should make lightly or without a compelling reason to do so.

Many of its requirements come from OpenID Connect but some of them are intentionally incompatible – such as requiring that Basic authentication not be supported, whereas Connect requires that it be supported. It’s a different ecosystem with different requirements. Don’t get me wrong, I support PKCE where it makes sense, such as when you’re doing bare OAuth without OpenID Connect. But trying to impose an unnecessary requirement on a working and secure ecosystem will just create grief for us and our customers and lessen our credibility as stewards of the OAuth ecosystem. -- Mike From: Aaron Parecki <aa...@parecki.com<mailto:aa...@parecki.com>> Sent: Wednesday, May 6, 2020 12:29 PM To: Steinar Noem <stei...@udelt.no<mailto:stei...@udelt.no>> Cc: Phillip Hunt <phil.h...@independentid.com<mailto:phil.h...@independentid.com>>; Mike Jones <michael.jo...@microsoft.com<mailto:michael.jo...@microsoft.com>>; oauth@ietf.org<mailto:oauth@ietf.org> Subject: Re: [OAUTH-WG] OAuth 2.1 - require PKCE? I should add that even some OpenID Connect profiles require PKCE, such as FAPI: https://openid.net/specs/openid-financial-api-part-1.html#authorization-server So the precedent for requiring PKCE already exists within some OpenID Connect profiles.

Yes it adds new MUST requirements. But what about OIDC would break other than required implementation of PKCE to support 2.1?

The Security BCP already requires that ASs support PKCE: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-security-topics-15#section-2.1.1 Are you suggesting that the Security BCP change that requirement as well? If so, that's a discussion that needs to be had ASAP. If not, then that's an implicit statement that it's okay for OpenID Connect implementations to not be best-practice OAuth implementations. And if that's the case, then I also think it's acceptable that they are not complete OAuth 2.1 implementations either.

There are hundreds of implementations (including the 141 certified ones at https://openid.net/certification/), none of which have ever been required to support PKCE. Therefore, most don’t. Per feedback already provided, I believe that OAuth 2.1 should align with the guidance already in the draft Security BCP, requiring EITHER the use of PKCE or the OpenID Connect nonce. Trying to retroactively impose unnecessary requirements on existing deployments is unlikely to succeed and will significantly reduce the relevance of the OAuth 2.1 effort. In particular, authorization servers shouldn’t be required to support PKCE when they already support the OpenID Connect nonce. And clients shouldn’t reject responses from servers that don’t support PKCE when they do contain the OpenID Connect nonce. Doing so would unnecessarily break things and create confusion in the marketplace. -- Mike From: OAuth <oauth-boun...@ietf.org<mailto:oauth-boun...@ietf.org>> On Behalf Of Dick Hardt Sent: Wednesday, May 6, 2020 10:48 AM To: oauth@ietf.org<mailto:oauth@ietf.org> Subject: [OAUTH-WG] OAuth 2.1 - require PKCE? Hello! We would like to have PKCE be a MUST in OAuth 2.1 code flows. This is best practice for OAuth 2.0. It is not common in OpenID Connect servers as the nonce solves some of the issues that PKCE protects against. We think that most OpenID Connect implementations also support OAuth 2.0, and hence have support for PKCE if following best practices. The advantages or requiring PKCE are: - a simpler programming model across all OAuth applications and profiles as they all use PKCE - reduced attack surface when using S256 as a fingerprint of the verifier is sent through the browser instead of the clear text value - enforcement by AS not client - makes it easier to handle for client developers and AS can ensure the check is conducted What are disadvantages besides the potential impact to OpenID Connect deployments? How significant is that impact?
