"OAuth 2.0 Dynamic Client Registration Protocol” [1] is nearly finished and provides the possibility to register additional “Client Metadata”.
OAuth 2.0 does not define any matching algorithm for the redirect_uris. The latest information on that topic I could find is [1], which is 5 years old. Is there any more recent discussion about it? I’d suggest to add an OPTIONAL “redirect_uris_matching_method” client metadata. Possible valid values could be: * “exact”: The “redirect_uri" provided in a redirect-based flow must match exactly one of of the provided strings in the “redirect_uris” array. * “prefix”: The "redirect_uri" must begin with one of the “redirect_uris”. (e.g. "http://example.com/path/subpath” would be valid with [“http://example.com/path/“, “http://example.com/otherpath/”]) * “regex”: The provided “redirect_uris” are threatened as regular expressions, which the “redirect_uri” will be matched against. (e.g. “http://subdomain.example.com/path5/“ would be valid with [“^http:\\/\\/[a-z]+\\.example\\.com\\/path\\d+\\/“] If not defined the server can choose any supported method, so we do not break existing implementations. On the other side it allows an client to make sure that a server supports a specific matching algorithm required by the client. ATM a client has no possibility to know how a server handles the redirect_uris.
