Abstract:
This specification profiles the Assertion Framework for OAuth 2.0
Client Authentication and Authorization Grants [RFC7521], the JWT
Profile for OAuth 2.0 Client Authentication and Authorization Grants
[RFC7523], and OAuth 2.0 Attestation-Based Client Authentication
[I-D.draft-ietf-oauth-attestation-based-client-auth] to enable the
use of SPIFFE Verifiable Identity Documents (SVIDs) as client
credentials in OAuth 2.0. It defines how OAuth clients with SPIFFE
credentials can authenticate to OAuth authorization servers using
their JWT-SVIDs, WIT-SVIDs, or X.509-SVIDs without the need for
client secrets. This approach enhances security by enabling seamless
integration between SPIFFE-enabled workloads and OAuth authorization
servers while eliminating the need to distribute and manage shared
secrets such as static client secrets.
