draft-erdtman-ace-rpcc-02
Abstract
This document describes Transport Layer Security (TLS) authentication

1. Introduction
This document describes Transport Layer Security (TLS) authentication
using Raw-Public-Key and Pre-Shared-Key as the mechanism for OAuth
client authentication. Examples of endpoint requiring client
authentication are token and introspection.
The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework [RFC6749] defines a shared
secret method of client authentication but also allows for the
definition and use of additional client authentication mechanisms
when interacting with the authorization server's token endpoint.
This document describes two additional mechanisms of client
authentication utilizing Raw-Public-Key [RFC7250] and Pre-Shared-Key
TLS [RFC4279], which provide better security characteristics than
shared secrets.
To get most bennefits and improved security with these new client
credential types it is recomended to use the 'one credential per
Client Software Instance' paradigm. This can be achived by letting
the client dynamicly register as described in [RFC7591].
1.1. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

2. Pre-Shared-Key for Client Authentication
The following section defines, as an extension of OAuth 2.0,
Section 2.3 [RFC6749], using Pre-Shared-Key with TLS [RFC4279] to
authenticate the client. This method is registered as
'tls_client_psk' in "OAuth Token Endpoint Authentication Methods"
registry. If this method is to be used, the client and the
Authorization Server MUST share a secret key, and they MUST agree on
an identifier for this key.
The (D)TLS handshake MUST be done according to [RFC4279], with the
client indicating support for one or more Pre-Shared-Key cipher
suites and authorization server selecting a Pre-Shared-Key cipher
suite. In order to enable the authorization server to select the
correct pre-shared-key the client MUST send the key identifier in the
psk-identity field of the ClientKeyExchange message. How the
authorization server maps the identifier to a pre-shared-key, and to
a specific client is out of scope for this specification.
Note that the key identifier MUST be 2^16 bytes or shorter, in order
to fit into the psk-identity field.
3. Raw-Public-Key for Client Authentication
The following section defines, as an extension of OAuth 2.0,
Section 2.3 [RFC6749], the use of Raw-Public-Key with (D)TLS
[RFC7250] to authenticate the client. This method is registered as
'tls_client_rpk' in "OAuth Token Endpoint Authentication Methods"
registry.
The (D)TLS handshake MUST be done according to [RFC7250], with the
client indicating support for Raw-Public-Key certificates and the
authorization server asking client send its Raw Public Key
certificate. Since the client cannot send an explicit client or key
identifier in the handshake, the authorization server MUST derive a
client identifier from RPK that the client uses.
Note to implementers: Authorization servers can use the following
method to map a Raw Public Key to a client identifier: The client
identifier is generated from the Raw Public Key using the procedure
specified in section 3 of [RFC6920]. The digest is calculated on the
Raw Public Key only (not on the SubjectPublicKeyInfo used in the
handshake). An example is shown in Figure 1.

Information URI Format
4. Dynamic Registration
For dynamic registration of a RPK this specification registers the
new parameter 'rpk' to the Client Registration Metadata Registry.
When used this parameter MUST contain a JSON Web Key representing the
public key of the client. When 'rpk' is present in the registration
request 'token_endpoint_auth_method' MUST include 'tls_client_rpk'.
For dynamic registration of a PSK this specification registers the
new parameter 'psk' to the Client Registration Metadata Registry.
When used this parameter MUST contain a JSON Web Key representing the
key of the client. When registering the client can include the key
in the registrations request or the authorisation can generate the
key and return it. If the 'psk' attribute is present in a request
'token_endpoint_auth_method' MUST include 'tls_client_psk'. To
request the authorisation server to generate the key the client
includes 'tls_client_psk' in 'token_endpoint_auth_method' but does
not send 'psk' attribute.
The 'jwks' and 'jwks_uri' is not used to avoid conflict and confusion
with application layer keys.
