Hi all,

discussion about Mix-Up and CnP seems to have stopped after the session in BA - at least in the OAuth WG. There is a discussion about mitigations in OpenId Connect going on at the OpenId Connect mailing list.

I'm very much interested to find a solution within the OAuth realm as I'm not interested to either implement two solutions (for OpenId Connect and OAuth) or adopt a OpenId-specific solution to OAuth (use id! tokens in the front channel). I therefore would like to see progress and propose to continue the discussion regarding mitigations for both threats.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-mix-up-mitigation-00 proposes reasonable mitigations for both attacks. There are alternatives as well:
- mix up:
-- AS specific redirect uris
-- Meta data/turi (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sakimura-oauth-meta-07#section-5)
- CnP:
-- use of the nonce parameter (as a distinct mitigation beside state for counter XSRF)

Anyone having an opinion?

best regards,
Torsten.
