                OAuth 2.0 Pushed Authorization Requests
                        draft-ietf-oauth-par-10

Abstract

   This document defines the pushed authorization request (PAR)
   endpoint, which allows clients to push the payload of an OAuth 2.0
   authorization request to the authorization server via a direct
   request and provides them with a request URI that is used as
   reference to the data in a subsequent call to the authorization
   endpoint.

1.  Introduction

   A pushed authorization request (PAR), defined by this document,
   enables an OAuth [RFC6749] client to push the payload of an
   authorization request directly to the authorization server.  A
   request URI value is received in in exchange, which is used as
   reference to the authorization request payload data in a subsequent
   call to the authorization endpoint via the user agent.

   In OAuth [RFC6749] authorization request parameters are typically
   sent as URI query parameters via redirection in the user agent.  This
   is simple but also yields challenges:

   *  There is no cryptographic integrity and authenticity protection.
      An attacker could, for example, modify the scope of access
      requested or swap the context of a payment transaction by changing
      scope values.  Although protocol facilities exist to enable
      clients or users to detect some such changes, preventing
      modifications early in the process is a more robust solution.

   *  There is no mechanism to ensure confidentiality of the request
      parameters.  Although HTTPS is required for the authorization
      endpoint, the request data passes through the user agent in the
      clear and query string data can inadvertently leak to web server
      logs and to other sites via referer.  The impact of such leakage
      can be significant, if personally identifiable information or
      other regulated data is sent in the authorization request (which
      might well be the case in identity, open banking, and similar
      scenarios).

   *  Authorization request URLs can become quite large, especially in
      scenarios requiring fine-grained authorization data, which might
      cause errors in request processing.

   JWT Secured Authorization Request (JAR) [I-D.ietf-oauth-jwsreq]
   provides solutions for the security challenges by allowing OAuth
   clients to wrap authorization request parameters in a request object,
   which is a signed and optionally encrypted JSON Web Token (JWT)
   [RFC7519].  In order to cope with the size restrictions, JAR
   introduces the "request_uri" parameter that allows clients to send a
   reference to a request object instead of the request object itself.

   This document complements JAR by providing an interoperable way to
   push the payload of an authorization request directly to the
   authorization server in exchange for a "request_uri" value usable at
   the authorization server in a subsequent authorization request.

   PAR fosters OAuth security by providing clients a simple means for a
   confidential and integrity protected authorization request.  Clients
   requiring an even higher security level, especially cryptographically
   confirmed non-repudiation, are able to use JWT-based request objects
   as defined by [I-D.ietf-oauth-jwsreq] in conduction with PAR.

Internet-Draft                  OAuth PAR                      July 2021


   PAR allows the authorization server to authenticate the client before
   any user interaction happens.  The increased confidence in the
   identity of the client during the authorization process allows the
   authorization server to refuse illegitimate requests much earlier in
   the process, which can prevent attempts to spoof clients or otherwise
   tamper with or misuse an authorization request.

   Note that HTTP "POST" requests to the authorization endpoint via the
   user agent, as described in Section 3.1 of [RFC6749] and
   Section 3.1.2.1 of [OIDC], could also be used to cope with the
   request size limitations described above.  However, it's only
   optional per [RFC6749] and, even when supported, it is a viable
   option for traditional web applications but is prohibitively
   difficult to use with native mobile applications.  As described in
   [RFC8252] those apps use platform-specific APIs to open the
   authorization request URI in the system browser.  When a native app
   launches a browser, however, the resultant initial request is
   constrained to use the "GET" method.  Using "POST" for the
   authorization request would require the app to first direct the
   browser to open a URI that the app controls via "GET" while somehow
   conveying the sizable authorization request payload and then have the
   resultant response contain content and script to initiate a cross-
   site form "POST" towards the authorization server.  PAR is simpler to
   use and has additional security benefits described above.

1.1.  Introductory Example

   In traditional OAuth 2.0, a client typically initiates an
   authorization request by directing the user agent to make an HTTP
   request like the following to the authorization server's
   authorization endpoint (extra line breaks and indentation for display
   purposes only):

    GET /authorize?response_type=code
     &client_id=CLIENT1234&state=duk681S8n00GsJpe7n9boxdzen
     &redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fclient.example.org%2Fcb HTTP/1.1
    Host: as.example.com

   Such a request could instead be pushed directly to the authorization
   server by the client with a "POST" request to the PAR endpoint as
   illustrated in the following example (extra line breaks and
   whitespace for display purposes only).  The client can authenticate
   (e.g., using JWT client assertion based authentication as shown)
   because the request is made directly to the authorization server.

    Host: as.example.com
    Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

     wbLjeIYwqWUu-ywgvvufl_0sQJftNs3bzjIrP0BV9rRG-3eI1Ksh0kQ1CwvzA

   The authorization server responds with a request URI:

    HTTP/1.1 201 Created
    Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store
    Content-Type: application/json

    {
      "request_uri": "urn:example:bwc4JK-ESC0w8acc191e-Y1LTC2",
      "expires_in": 90
    }

   The client uses the request URI value to create the subsequent
   authorization request by directing the user agent to make an HTTP
   request to the authorization server's authorization endpoint like the
   following (extra line breaks and indentation for display purposes
   only):

    GET /authorize?client_id=CLIENT1234
     &request_uri=urn%3Aexample%3Abwc4JK-ESC0w8acc191e-Y1LTC2 HTTP/1.1
    Host: as.example.com

1.2.  Conventions and Terminology

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
   14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
   capitals, as shown here.

   This specification uses the terms "access token", "authorization
   server", "authorization endpoint", "authorization request", "token
   endpoint", and "client" defined by The OAuth 2.0 Authorization
   Framework [RFC6749].

2.  Pushed Authorization Request Endpoint

   The pushed authorization request endpoint is an HTTP API at the
   authorization server that accepts HTTP "POST" requests with
   parameters in the HTTP request message body using the "application/x-
   www-form-urlencoded" format with a character encoding of UTF-8 as
   described in Appendix B of [RFC6749].  The PAR endpoint URL MUST use
   the "https" scheme.

   Authorization servers supporting PAR SHOULD include the URL of their
   pushed authorization request endpoint in their authorization server
   metadata document [RFC8414] using the
   "pushed_authorization_request_endpoint" parameter as defined in
   Section 5.

   The endpoint accepts the authorization request parameters defined in
   [RFC6749] for the authorization endpoint as well as all applicable
   extensions defined for the authorization endpoint.  Some examples of
   such extensions include PKCE [RFC7636], Resource Indicators
   [RFC8707], and OpenID Connect [OIDC].  The endpoint MAY also support
   sending the set of authorization request parameters as a request
   object according to [I-D.ietf-oauth-jwsreq] and Section 3.

   The rules for client authentication as defined in [RFC6749] for token
   endpoint requests, including the applicable authentication methods,
   apply for the PAR endpoint as well.  If applicable, the
   "token_endpoint_auth_method" client metadata [RFC7591] parameter
   indicates the registered authentication method for the client to use
   when making direct requests to the authorization server, including
   requests to the PAR endpoint.  Similarly, the
   "token_endpoint_auth_methods_supported" authorization server metadata
   [RFC8414] parameter lists client authentication methods supported by
   the authorization server when accepting direct requests from clients,
   including requests to the PAR endpoint.

   Due to historical reasons there is potential ambiguity regarding the
   appropriate audience value to use when employing JWT client assertion
   based authentication (defined in Section 2.2 of [RFC7523] with
   "private_key_jwt" or "client_secret_jwt" authentication method names
   per Section 9 of [OIDC]).  To address that ambiguity the issuer
   identifier URL of the authorization server according to [RFC8414]
   SHOULD be used as the value of the audience.  In order to facilitate
   interoperability the authorization server MUST accept its issuer
   identifier, token endpoint URL, or pushed authorization request
   endpoint URL as values that identify it as an intended audience.

2.1.  Request

   A client sends the parameters that comprise an authorization request
   directly to the PAR endpoint.  A typical parameter set might include:
   "client_id", "response_type", "redirect_uri", "scope", "state",
   "code_challenge", and "code_challenge_method" as shown in the example
   below.  However, the pushed authorization request can be composed of
   any of the parameters applicable for use at authorization endpoint
   including those defined in [RFC6749] as well as all applicable
   extensions.  The "request_uri" authorization request parameter is one
   exception, which MUST NOT be provided.

   The request also includes, as appropriate for the given client, any
   additional parameters necessary for client authentication (e.g.,
   "client_secret", or "client_assertion" and "client_assertion_type").
   Such parameters are defined and registered for use at the token
   endpoint but are applicable only for client authentication.  When
   present in a pushed authorization request, they are relied upon only
   for client authentication and are not germane to the authorization
   request itself.  Any token endpoint parameters that are not related
   to client authentication have no defined meaning for a pushed
   authorization request.  The "client_id" parameter is defined with the
   same semantics for both authorization requests and requests to the
   token endpoint; as a required authorization request parameter, it is
   similarly required in a pushed authorization request.

   The client constructs the message body of an HTTP "POST" request with
   "x-www-form-urlencoded" formatted parameters using a character
   encoding of UTF-8 as described in Appendix B of [RFC6749].  If
   applicable, the client also adds its authentication credentials to
   the request header or the request body using the same rules as for
   token endpoint requests.

   This is illustrated by the following example (extra line breaks in
   the message body for display purposes only):

     GQ

   The authorization server MUST process the request as follows:

   1.  Authenticate the client in the same way as at the token endpoint
       (Section 2.3 of [RFC6749]).

   2.  Reject the request if the "request_uri" authorization request
       parameter is provided.

   3.  Validate the pushed request as it would an authorization request
       sent to the authorization endpoint.  For example, the
       authorization server checks whether the redirect URI matches one
       of the redirect URIs configured for the client and also checks
       whether the client is authorized for the scope for which it is
       requesting access.  This validation allows the authorization
       server to refuse unauthorized or fraudulent requests early.  The
       authorization server MAY omit validation steps that it is unable
       to perform when processing the pushed request, however, such
       checks MUST then be performed when processing the authorization
       request at the authorization endpoint.

   The authorization server MAY allow clients with authentication
   credentials to establish per-authorization-request redirect URIs with
   every pushed authorization request.  Described in more detail in
   Section 2.4, this is possible since, in contrast to [RFC6749], this
   specification gives the authorization server the ability to
   authenticate clients and validate client requests before the actual
   authorization request is performed.

2.2.  Successful Response

   If the verification is successful, the server MUST generate a request
   URI and provide it in the response with a "201" HTTP status code.
   The following parameters are included as top-level members in the
   message body of the HTTP response using the "application/json" media
   type as defined by [RFC8259].

   *  "request_uri" : The request URI corresponding to the authorization
      request posted.  This URI is a single-use reference to the
      respective request data in the subsequent authorization request.
      The way the authorization process obtains the authorization
      request data is at the discretion of the authorization server and
      out of scope of this specification.  There is no need to make the
      authorization request data available to other parties via this
      URI.

   *  "expires_in" : A JSON number that represents the lifetime of the
      request URI in seconds as a positive integer.  The request URI
      lifetime is at the discretion of the authorization server but will
      typically be relatively short (e.g., between 5 and 600 seconds).

   The format of the "request_uri" value is at the discretion of the
   authorization server but it MUST contain some part generated using a
   cryptographically strong pseudorandom algorithm such that it is
   computationally infeasible to predict or guess a valid value (see
   Section 10.10 of [RFC6749] for specifics).  The authorization server
   MAY construct the "request_uri" value using the form
   "urn:ietf:params:oauth:request_uri:<reference-value>" with
   "<reference-value>" as the random part of the URI that references the
   respective authorization request data.

   The "request_uri" value MUST be bound to the client that posted the
   authorization request.

   The following is an example of such a response:

    HTTP/1.1 201 Created
    Content-Type: application/json
    Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store

    {
     "request_uri":
       "urn:ietf:params:oauth:request_uri:6esc_11ACC5bwc014ltc14eY22c",
     "expires_in": 60
    }

2.3.  Error Response

   The authorization server returns an error response with the same
   format as is specified for error responses from the token endpoint in
   Section 5.2 of [RFC6749] using the appropriate error code from
   therein or from Section 4.1.2.1 of [RFC6749].  In those cases where
   Section 4.1.2.1 of [RFC6749] prohibits automatic redirection with an
   error back to the requesting client and hence doesn't define an error
   code, for example when the request fails due to a missing, invalid,
   or mismatching redirection URI, the "invalid_request" error code can
   be used as the default error code.  Error codes defined by OAuth
   extension can also be used when such an extension is involved in the
   initial processing of authorization request that was pushed.  Since
   initial processing of the pushed authorization request does not
   involve resource owner interaction, error codes related to user
   interaction, such as "consent_required" defined by [OIDC], are never
   returned.

   If the client is required to use signed request objects, either by
   authorization server or client policy (see [I-D.ietf-oauth-jwsreq],
   section 10.5), the authorization server MUST only accept requests
   complying with the definition given in Section 3 and MUST refuse any
   other request with HTTP status code 400 and error code
   "invalid_request".

   In addition to the above, the PAR endpoint can also make use of the
   following HTTP status codes:

   *  405: If the request did not use the "POST" method, the
      authorization server responds with an HTTP 405 (Method Not
      Allowed) status code.

   *  413: If the request size was beyond the upper bound that the
      authorization server allows, the authorization server responds
      with an HTTP 413 (Payload Too Large) status code.

   *  429: If the number of requests from a client during a particular
      time period exceeds the number the authorization server allows,
      the authorization server responds with an HTTP 429 (Too Many
      Requests) status code.

   The following is an example of an error response from the PAR
   endpoint:

    HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
    Content-Type: application/json
    Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store

    {
      "error": "invalid_request",
      "error_description":
        "The redirect_uri is not valid for the given client"
    }

2.4.  Management of Client Redirect URIs

   OAuth 2.0 [RFC6749] allows clients to use unregistered "redirect_uri"
   values in certain circumstances or for the authorization server to
   apply its own matching semantics to the "redirect_uri" value
   presented by the client at the authorization endpoint.  However, the
   OAuth Security BCP [I-D.ietf-oauth-security-topics] as well as OAuth
   2.1 [I-D.ietf-oauth-v2-1] require an authorization server exactly
   match the "redirect_uri" parameter against the set of redirect URIs
   previously established for a particular client.  This is a means for
   early detection of client impersonation attempts and prevents token
   leakage and open redirection.  As a downside, this can make client
   management more cumbersome since the redirect URI is typically the
   most volatile part of a client policy.

   The exact matching requirement MAY be relaxed when using PAR for
   clients that have established authentication credentials with the
   authorization server.  This is possible since, in contrast to a
   traditional authorization request, the authorization server
   authenticates the client before the authorization process starts and
   thus ensures it is interacting with the legitimate client.  The
   authorization server MAY allow such clients to specify "redirect_uri"
   values that were not previously registered with the authorization
   server.  This will give the client more flexibility (e.g., to mint
   distinct redirect URI values per authorization server at runtime) and
   can simplify client management.  It is at the discretion of the
   authorization server to apply restrictions on supplied "redirect_uri"
   values, e.g., the authorization server MAY require a certain URI
   prefix or allow only a query parameter to vary at runtime.

   Note: The ability to set up transaction specific redirect URIs is
   also useful in situations where client ids and corresponding
   credentials and policies are managed by a trusted 3rd party, e.g. via
   client certificates containing client permissions.  Such an
   externally managed client could interact with an authorization server
   trusting the respective 3rd party without the need for an additional
   registration step.

3.  The "request" Request Parameter

   Clients MAY use the "request" parameter as defined in JAR
   [I-D.ietf-oauth-jwsreq] to push a request object JWT to the
   authorization server.  The rules for processing, signing, and
   encryption of the request object as defined in JAR
   [I-D.ietf-oauth-jwsreq] apply.  Request parameters required by a
   given client authentication method are included in the "application/
   x-www-form-urlencoded" request directly, and are the only parameters
   other than "request" in the form body (e.g.  Mutual TLS client
   authentication [RFC8705] uses the "client_id" HTTP request parameter
   while JWT assertion based client authentication [RFC7523] uses
   "client_assertion" and "client_assertion_type").  All other request
   parameters, i.e., those pertaining to the authorization request
   itself, MUST appear as claims of the JWT representing the
   authorization request.

   The following is an example of a pushed authorization request using a
   signed request object with the same authorization request payload as
   the example in Section 2.1.  The client is authenticated with JWT
   client assertion based authentication [RFC7523] (extra line breaks
   and whitespace for display purposes only):

4.  Authorization Request

   The client uses the "request_uri" value returned by the authorization
   server to build an authorization request as defined in
   [I-D.ietf-oauth-jwsreq].  This is shown in the following example
   where the client directs the user agent to make the following HTTP
   request (extra line breaks and indentation for display purposes
   only):




Lodderstedt, et al.      Expires 30 January 2022               [Page 14]

Internet-Draft                  OAuth PAR                      July 2021


    GET /authorize?client_id=s6BhdRkqt3&request_uri=urn%3Aietf%3Aparams
     %3Aoauth%3Arequest_uri%3A6esc_11ACC5bwc014ltc14eY22c HTTP/1.1
    Host: as.example.com

   Since parts of the authorization request content, e.g. the
   "code_challenge" parameter value, are unique to a particular
   authorization request, the client MUST only use a "request_uri" value
   once.  Authorization servers SHOULD treat "request_uri" values as
   one-time use but MAY allow for duplicate requests due to a user
   reloading/refreshing their user agent.  An expired "request_uri" MUST
   be rejected as invalid.

   The authorization server MUST validate authorization requests arising
   from a pushed request as it would any other authorization request.
   The authorization server MAY omit validation steps that it performed
   when the request was pushed, provided that it can validate that the
   request was a pushed request, and that the request or the
   authorization server's policy has not been modified in a way that
   would affect the outcome of the omitted steps.

   Authorization server policy MAY dictate, either globally or on a per-
   client basis, that PAR is the only means for a client to pass
   authorization request data.  In this case, the authorization server
   will refuse, using the "invalid_request" error code, to process any
   request to the authorization endpoint that does not have a
   "request_uri" parameter with a value obtained from the PAR endpoint.

   Note: authorization server and clients MAY use metadata as defined in
   Section 5 and Section 6 to signal the desired behavior.

5.  Authorization Server Metadata

   The following authorization server metadata [RFC8414] parameters are
   introduced to signal the server's capability and policy with respect
   to PAR.

   "pushed_authorization_request_endpoint"  The URL of the pushed
      authorization request endpoint at which a client can post an
      authorization request to exchange for a "request_uri" value usable
      at the authorization server.

   "require_pushed_authorization_requests"  Boolean parameter indicating
      whether the authorization server accepts authorization request
      data only via PAR.  If omitted, the default value is "false".

   Note that the presence of "pushed_authorization_request_endpoint" is
   sufficient for a client to determine that it may use the PAR flow.  A
   "request_uri" value obtained from the PAR endpoint is usable at the

   authorization endpoint regardless of other authorization server
   metadata such as "request_uri_parameter_supported" or
   "require_request_uri_registration" [OIDC.Disco].

6.  Client Metadata

   The Dynamic Client Registration Protocol [RFC7591] defines an API for
   dynamically registering OAuth 2.0 client metadata with authorization
   servers.  The metadata defined by [RFC7591], and registered
   extensions to it, also imply a general data model for clients that is
   useful for authorization server implementations even when the Dynamic
   Client Registration Protocol isn't in play.  Such implementations
   will typically have some sort of user interface available for
   managing client configuration.  The following client metadata
   parameter is introduced by this document to indicate whether pushed
   authorization requests are required for the given client.

   "require_pushed_authorization_requests"  Boolean parameter indicating
      whether the only means of initiating an authorization request the
      client is allowed to use is PAR.  If omitted, the default value is
      "false".

7.  Security Considerations

7.1.  Request URI Guessing

   An attacker could attempt to guess and replay a valid request URI
   value and try to impersonate the respective client.  The
   authorization server MUST consider the considerations given in JAR
   [I-D.ietf-oauth-jwsreq], section 10.2, clause (d) on request URI
   entropy.

7.2.  Open Redirection

   An attacker could try to register a redirect URI pointing to a site
   under his control in order to obtain authorization codes or launch
   other attacks towards the user.  The authorization server MUST only
   accept new redirect URIs in the pushed authorization request from
   authenticated clients.

7.3.  Request Object Replay

   An attacker could replay a request URI captured from a legitimate
   authorization request.  In order to cope with such attacks, the
   authorization server SHOULD make the request URIs one-time use.

Internet-Draft                  OAuth PAR                      July 2021


7.4.  Client Policy Change

   The client policy might change between the lodging of the request
   object and the authorization request using a particular request
   object.  It is therefore recommended that the authorization server
   check the request parameter against the client policy when processing
   the authorization request.

7.5.  Request URI Swapping

   An attacker could capture the request URI from one request and then
   substitute it into a different authorization request.  For example,
   in the context of OpenID Connect, an attacker could replace a request
   URI asking for a high level of authentication assurance with one that
   requires a lower level of assurance.  Clients SHOULD make use of PKCE
   [RFC7636], a unique "state" parameter [RFC6749], or the OIDC "nonce"
   parameter [OIDC] in the pushed request object to prevent this attack.

8.  Privacy Considerations

   OAuth 2.0 is a complex and flexible framework with broad-ranging
   privacy implications due to the very nature of it having one entity
   intermediate user authorization to data access between two other
   entities.  The privacy considerations of all of OAuth are beyond the
   scope of this document, which only defines an alternative way of
   initiating one message sequence in the larger framework.  Using PAR,
   however, may improve privacy by reducing the potential for
   inadvertent information disclosure since it passes the authorization
   request data directly between client and authorization server over a
   secure connection in the message body of an HTTP request, rather than
   in the query component of a URL that passes through the user agent in
   the clear.

      published RFC 8707

   *  Added metadata in support of pushed authorization requests only

      "request_uri"

   *  Clarified timing of request validation

   *  Add some guidance/options on the request URI structure

   *  Add the key used in the request object example so that a reader
      could validate or recreate the request object signature

   *  Update to draft-ietf-oauth-jwsreq-25 and added note regarding
      "require_signed_request_object"
