(1) The requirement in the paragraph below excerpted from "3. Requesting a JWT Access Token":
*If it receives a request for an access token containing more than one resource parameter, an authorization server issuing JWT access tokens MUST reject the request and fail with "invalid_request" as described in section 4.1.2.1 of [RFC6749] or with "invalid_target" as defined in section 2 of [RFC8707]. See Section 2.2 and Section 5 for more details on how this measure ensures there's no confusion on to what resource the access token granted scopes apply.* apparently conflicts with RFC 8707. I'm afraid vendors that support RFC 8707 won't support this draft unless the requirement is loosened, for example from MUST to SHOULD. (2) Regarding another paragraph shown below from the same section. *If the request does not include a resource parameter, the authorization server MUST use in the aud claim a default resource indicator. If a scope parameter is present in the request, the authorization server SHOULD use it to infer the value of the default resource indicator to be used in the aud claim. The mechanism through which scopes are associated to default resource indicator values is outside the scope of this specification. If the values in the scope parameter refer to different default resource indicator values, the authorization server SHOULD reject the request with invalid_scope as described in section 4.1.2.1 of [RFC6749].* The rule described here whereby to determine the default value of the "aud" claim is unintelligible. In addition, I don't think the rule referring to the "scope" parameter is worth being defined. That "aud" is missing but "scope" is available is enough for resource servers. In other words, if "aud" is determined based on the "scope", why do we have to set "aud" redundantly? Requiring the "aud" as a MUST claim is the reason that this draft has to introduce philosophy about "aud" that may conflict with other specifications and may not be supported by all implementers. I would suggest changing "REQUIRED" to "OPTIONAL". Best Regards, Takahiko Kawasaki Authlete, Inc.
