OAuth 2.0 Framework

This library is the Authelia OAuth 2.0 Framework which is internally used to deliver OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect 1.0 Flows to its users.

Notable Implemented or Intended Differences

In an effort to assist users who wish to use this library we aim to maintain the following list of differences:

• Module path changed from github.com/ory/fosite to authelia.com/provider/oauth2.
• Documentation:
  • Add spec support documentation
• Overhaul testing:
  • Ensure all tests and subtests are well named
  • Ensure all tests are simplified where possible
  • Restore/Implement conformance tests
• Rename interfaces and implementations:
  • OAuth2Provider to Provider.
  • Fosite to TBA.
• Minimum dependency is go version 1.21
• Replace string values with constants where applicable ^commit
• Simplify the internal JWT logic to leverage github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/v5 or other such libraries
• Implement internal JWKS logic
• Higher Debug error information visibility (Debug Field includes the complete RFC6749 error with debug information if available)
• Fixes:
  • Basic Scheme Rejects Special Characters ^commit
  • RFC9068 must condition ignored ^commit
  • Arguments are treated as case-insensitive ^commit
  • Refresh Flow:
    • Requested scope ignored ^commit
    • Original request id not set early enough ^commit
  • PKCE Flow:
    • Session generated needlessly ^commit
    • Failure to fetch session causes an error even when not enforced ^commit
  • OpenID Flows:
    • Absence of Redirect URI does not result in an error ^commit
  • Decode id_token_hint with correct signer
  • Write Revocation Response does not correctly error ^commit
  • Invalid Token base 64 error not mapped to RFC
  • Auth Request omitted Response Mode not validated
  • Refresh Grant if Token Invalid/Expired status is not 400 ^commit
  • Access Token iat and nbf in JWT Profile always original claims ^commit
• Features:
  • Requested Audience Policy (many clients do not support the parameter)
  • PAR Flow:
    • Per-Client Enforcement Policy
  • PKCE Flow:
    • Per-Client Enforcement Policy
  • CoreStrategy:
    • Customizable Token Prefix ^commit
    • Automatic NewCoreStrategy which provides either:
      • JWT Profile Core Strategy (if a jwt.Signer is provided)
      • HMAC-based Core Strategy
    • JWT Profile Per Client
  • Introspection JWT Responses
  • Introspection Client Authentication
  • Custom Form Post Response Writer
  • UserInfo support
  • RFC8628: OAuth 2.0 Device Authorization Grant support ^commit

    • RFC9207: OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server Issuer Identification support ^commit
    • Response Type None ^commit
  • Revocation Flow per policy can decide to revoke Refresh Tokens on request ^commit
  • Client Authentication Rework:
    • General Refactor
    • Prevent Multiple Client Authentication Methods
    • Client Secret Validation Interface
    • JWE support for Client Authentication and Issuance
  • Testing Package (mocks, etc)
  • Clock Drift Support
  • Key Management
  • Injectable Clock Configurator
  • Support s_hash ^commit
• Removal of the following dependencies:
  • go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace

We however:

• Acknowledge the amazing hard work of the ORY developers in making such an amazing framework that we can do this with.
• Plan to continue to contribute back to te ORY fosite and related projects.
• Have ensured the licensing is unchanged in this fork of the library.
