Agreed - that’s why we disabled request_uri by default and added
extensibility points to implement validation.

I thought it is odd that this was not mentioned in the typical “security
considerations” in the OIDC spec..

If the AS can’t validate the request_uri it may also open itself up to SSRF
attacks where a malicious client uses the request_uri to probe/attack
resources inside the AS’s private network. This was a crucial part of the
recent Capital One breach for example [1].  ForgeRock currently requires
strict validation of request_uris against a client-specific whitelist for
exactly this reason.

NB some clients might legitimately be on that private network (eg
microservices) so changing to a global whitelist for all clients is
undesirable.

Well, embedding a client_id claim in the JWE header in order to achieve
"request parameters outside the request object should not be referred to"
is like "putting the cart before the horse". Why do we have to avoid using
the traditional client_id request parameter so stubbornly?

The last paragraph of Section 3.2.1
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-3.2.1> of RFC 6749 says as
follows.

*A client MAY use the "client_id" request parameter to identify itself when
sending requests to the token endpoint.  In the "authorization_code"
"grant_type" request to the token endpoint, an unauthenticated client MUST
send its "client_id" to prevent itself from inadvertently accepting a code
intended for a client with a different "client_id".  This protects the
client from substitution of the authentication code.  (It provides no
additional security for the protected resource.)*


If the same reasoning applies, a client_id must always be sent with request
/ request_uri because client authentication is not performed at the
authorization endpoint. In other words, *an unauthenticated client (every
client is unauthenticated at the authorization endpoint) MUST send its
"client_id" to prevent itself from inadvertently accepting a request object
for a client with a different "client_id".*

Identifying the client in JAR request_uri requests can be really useful so
that an AS which requires request_uri registration to prevent DDoS attacks
and other checks can do those without having to index all request_uris
individually. I mentioned this before.

I really wonder what the reasoning of the IESG reviewers was to insist on
no params outside the JAR JWT / request_uri.

I'm beginning to realise this step of the review process isn't particularly
transparent to WG members.
