Allow to use operator token for device authentication in OpenID Auth code flow

  • Discussed https://github.com/camaraproject/IdentityAndConsentManagement/issues/232 and https://github.com/camaraproject/IdentityAndConsentManagement/pull/238 .

  • The discussion centered on whether operator tokens could securely authenticate devices in the Authorization Code (Auth Code) flow or if they only serve as identifiers in CAMARA context.

  • Skeptics highlighted that operator tokens, in their current form, cannot authenticate a device. They only identify the device, similar to providing an MSISDN or IP address.

  • It was proposed that tokens be enhanced with attributes such as app IDs or IP addresses in order to improve security.

  • CAMARAโ€™s Role: Some members emphasized that CAMARA should remain agnostic about the token enhancement process. If external specifications (e.g., TS 43 or ASAC) standardize a secure operator token, CAMARA could acknowledge and document it.

  • Summary of Action Items:

    • Clarify CAMARAโ€™s stance on operator tokensโ€™ authentication capabilities in the Auth Code flow.

    • Explore the feasibility of adopting enhanced operator tokens while maintaining alignment with existing standards and guidelines.

    • Gather more feedback on scenarios where operator tokens could provide value without compromising security.

Consent URL API vs OIDC consent collection

  • The group discussed the proposed Consent URL API, which aims to allow standalone consent collection via a URL, independent of OIDC authentication flows. https://github.com/camaraproject/IdentityAndConsentManagement/issues/224

  • Participants expressed differing opinions about the necessity and implications of the Content URL API. Some argued it was a flexible approach to gathering user consent, while others worried it deviated from existing standards and introduced fragmentation risks.

  • Telefรณnica emphasized that the existing network-based authentication definitions in CAMARA might be disrupted if new authentication mechanisms are introduced without careful consideration. They highlighted potential interoperability issues and the need to rework previous agreements.

  • Deutsche Telekom questioned whether the proposal should move forward as a sandbox API or aim for standardization. They expressed concerns about imposing implementation burdens on all operators and suggested further exploration of alternatives within existing standards.

  • Both sides acknowledged strong opposing views and suggested involving additional participants to achieve consensus.
