Notes from UMA telecon 2016-12-115

http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/UMA+telecon+2016-12-15 MinutesRoll call Quorum was not reached. Critical mass was reached. Approve minutes Approve minutes of UMA telecon 2016-12-01 <http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/UMA+telecon+2016-12-01>: Deferred. Logistics - *Dec 16:* Legal subgroup meets as usual - *Dec 22:* meet as usual; RSVP – Dec 23: no Legal subgroup meeting Who's not available for next Thursday? Andi, Cigdem, François. Work on UMA.next issues * Use Cases for FHIR Security Authorization with Patient Consent <http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/download/attachments/17760302/Use%2…> (aka "cascading OAuth"):* Mike Davis is the security architect for the Dept of Veterans Affairs. Kathleen, Mohammad, and Tony are on the security architecture team and have been working on enabling patient choice. What they'll show is what they've been working on for the HIMSS '17 conference. They've developed a profile that integrates patient and enterprise access control systems. Kathleen notes that Adrian has articulated the "multiple portals problem" in the past. The Word document linked from above "cascades" authorization decisions. This version of the doc makes both parts OAuth-based, where the token expires within a period of time. They had demonstrated UMA in 2015. This next level is where there are multiple authorities governing access – different sources of policy. The VA is a US federal agency. As such, it makes its IP available freely. The notion is that there are at least two AS's. There is an external third-party authorization server connect to a consent directive management system. A "consent directive" is an authorization policy stored in a FHIR server in FHIR-dictated form. That's not UMA, but a FHIR server has the capability to query that in order to enforce a decision. The flow starts with a client requesting some data. The client is redirected, or is hinted to go to the local AS, where it asks for an RPT. At this point, the overarching policies in the organization are checked. It's determined whether the patient's consent is needed. If so, a second hint is produced after the token is issued, and it proceeds to get a "patient consent token", which here is called an RPT. Verification and introspection later needs to take place, with each relevant AS. Data labeling and transformation subsequently takes place, which is not related to UMA. They have a beta implementation of this right now. Adrian: What is the resource that is being registered? There's the HEART profile, and the Argonaut profile. These talk about what you're supposed to register in terms of the permission structure. What goes into the scope portion is basically the security labels. If you're only supposed to have non-confidential data, that goes in. The resource ID portion, according to the spirit of HEART and other profiles, that gets registered is Alice/Medication, followed by the necessary clearances. It's a standard UMA server. What connects the AS's is the patient identity. This allows finding the relevant policies that the patient has filed. Eve: If these are UMA AS's, are these all RPTs, and are the hints all need_info hints? This is still classic UMA, and this is all being done with permission registration (which would now be called requesting permissions on behalf of the client), only having a different party making the request. Eve suggests that a next step could be a detailed message flow for the swimlane and numbered list on pages 11-12 of the Word document. Colin: Encourages looking at Consent Receipts as well. Eve: Is this a way for an RS to constrain what an RO can share so as to control its liability in a technical, vs. just legal fashion? Kathleen: Yes, but it's also a way to ensure central patient policy *information* management of their own policies per se, not just have a central administration point. Next steps: Decide if we want to make this a part of UMA2. *Set math:* Decision 1: What to do when the client has pre-registered parsimoniously but the rest of the scope ecosystem has been more generous? 1. Client pre-registers for scopes at the AS (dynamically, or out of band, or updates a previous registration, etc.) 2. Client attempts access, nominally "using some scope" by virtue of making an API call 3. RS requests one or more permissions on the client's behalf 4. Client requests an RPT, possibly explicitly requesting one or more scopes 5. (At some point) RO configures the AS with some policy conditions, which would ultimately grant the client (on the RqP's behalf) some permissions with some scopes 6. AS grants the client (on the RqP's behalf) permissions with some scopes 1a. *What if, in #1, client registers for only A, B, C, but in #3 and/or #5, the AS gets the idea that it's supposed to grant a permission that involves scope X?* 1b. *What if (given the RO/RS context above), in #4, client requests X even though it only registered for A, B, C?* Note that there is no requirement that a client has to pre-register for scopes. And there's no hard semantic for scope pre-registration, so the act doesn't necessarily mean "I can handle only these scopes". And we can fast see the day coming where scope pre-registration becomes so awkward because of its implicit association with only some resources in many OAuth-protected APIs that *resource* pre-registration will become available (scopes are *explicitly* associated with specific resources in UMA already). Eve had tried a "least privilege" strawman in email was to mask out scope X from any client that didn't pre-register for it. But we can't seem to think of a reason to deny granting that permission. Mike S could imagine a really paranoid trust model that would have the AS deny granting it, though. So do we want to be deterministic, or continue to allow the AS to use discretion? E.g., see the wording in Core V1.0.1 Sec 3.5.2 <https://docs.kantarainitiative.org/uma/rec-uma-core-v1_0_1.html#authorizati…> about partial fulfillment of scopes vs. rejection. Ishan: At least coming up with a maximal list of scopes and saying it's okay to mask it or not would be *more*deterministic. If an UMA AS is also an OIDC OP, would conflicts arise? We don't want that. (The WG call officially ended, and Eve Cigdem continued.) 1c. *What discretion or determinism should there be around #3?* In Core V1.0.1 Sec 3.2 <https://docs.kantarainitiative.org/uma/rec-uma-core-v1_0_1.html#register-pe…>, we currently say that the RS has to request a permission that at least suffices for what the client attempted. Of course, there is even some discretion in figuring this out. But it still seems practical to continue requiring the RS to request something minimally sufficing, and then – because it alone is authoritative for resource boundary management and complexity – enabling requesting of multiple permissions (that is, multiple resources) as required or desired, along with multiple scopes on those resources, based on its judgment as we have been saying all along. It's a matter not only of resource boundary management but also of stinginess/permissiveness. Client pre-registration of scopes seems so discretionary and so unclear as to its purpose that we think it shouldn't be relied on as any guidance towards UMA normative text. Maybe in future, it *might* be more meaningful if an RS could register its resources for protection in a way that allows clients to pre-register for *resources with scopes* (generically, outside of an RO context). But for now, this isn't possible. At that later time, we could extend UMA to allow clients to request specific resources when asking for an RPT in #4. We're not willing to define this mechanism as an extension to dynamic client registration, or as an OOB mechanism. (Or are we? A way to do it either dynamically or OOB would be to use something like the optional RReg type property (see RSR V1.01. Sec 2.2.1 <https://docs.kantarainitiative.org/uma/rec-oauth-resource-reg-v1_0_1.html#c…>), or an extension scopetype property or whatever, to convey the generic resource type you mean. From there, you could drill down on the scopes you mean, with an array. Etc. A client could use an object that leverages all this stuff to pre-register in some fashion for the specific scopes it can handle. Probably way too ambitious for UMA2, but there's an obvious path for how to extend it if someone wants to do this.) The way we're heading in our logic, #4 – the client requesting scopes – is something that's kind of unattractive because of this scope/resource skew. However, we had made this decision to add it because OAuth allows it, and because of the presumption that the client "knows its own mind", has to know the API, and therefore has to code to the scopes. Should we consider the above analysis to be sufficient new information to make us reconsider the new functionality we've added (client requesting scopes at the token endpoint, and the associated invalid_scope error)? Or should we consider it directly relevant to the AS's calculation, as in *1b* above? It's a kind of dynamic addition to whatever is in the permission ticket. The client – presumably acting on behalf of the RqP no matter whether the RqP is human or enterprise – has two opportunities to express the latter's wishes, or perhaps three. In #1, pre-registration for scopes is an act that takes place outside of any RqP's context, so that has nothing to do with the RqP, so let's not count that. In #2, the client actually attempts access, so that's a direct expression of a wish for access of a particular kind to something, directly at the RS itself. So we should take that very seriously (and do, according to the discussion above). In #4, the client currently has the ability to request scopes, a la OAuth, though we haven't been super-clear about the semantic of such a request: is it on the RqP's behalf, or is it on the client's own behalf, or what? Our previous discussion leading to this decision leans more on the side of the client's own behalf, connected somewhat to things like pre-registration. So, how much do we actually care – in set math reality – what the client requests at token-endpoint run time? Is it more important than pre-registration for scopes, and if so, by how much? *AI:* Eve and Cigdem: Draft sample spec text for "set math", with a choice point between client scope request effect options.

Reminder - Cloud Identity Summit Call for Presentations
by Andrew Hindle 15 Dec '16

15 Dec '16

Hi Following up on Eve's kind reminder at the top of today's WG call, and with my CIS content chair hat on, here is the URL for the CIS Call for Presentations: www.cloudidentitysummit.com/cfp Submissions are due by *Friday 6th January*. If you don't have anything else exciting planned for the late December / early January period (or if you need a break from the exciting things you *do* have planned!) - I encourage you to put in a submission or two. With some much exciting work going on both from a spec. and an architecture/use-case perspective, I'm hoping to see lots of interesting proposals come through from the UMA community :) If anyone is unfamiliar with CIS and needs some background on this core industry event, please let me know. And if you are a new or infrequent presenter: we are starting a speaker mentor program this year - just put a note in your submission if you think that would be of interest to you. Thanks! --&e -- ------------------------------ Hindle Consulting Limited is a company registered in England and Wales. Company number: 8888564.

Set math discussion setup
by Eve Maler 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

I'd like to try and structure our discussion for talking about set math, and also a use case that is hopefully just complex enough for discussion. (If this use case spurs ideas for other contrasting/better use cases, let's try and formulate them in a similar fashion for comparison's sake.) Thanks to Vlad on the APAC sync call for helping me think this through! The relevant sequence is: - (Long before) RS publishes API and its scopes, and client is developed according to those scopes - Say anything at all about this in the spec? - (Long before) Client registers with RS/API publisher to use only those scopes it intends to use - Does this make sense to tackle in the spec at any level? - Client attempts resource access at RS with no token -- giving no further overt context to the RS about what it wants - RS requests permission(s) on client's behalf at AS, based on knowledge of the parameters of the attempt - Used to be called "registering a permission" and it had to be singular, but it's now called "requesting permissions on behalf of the client" and can be plural (multiple resources) - Right now, as it was in UMA1, we require the RS to request permissions that are "sufficient" for the client's access attempt -- this is up for discussion - Client brings permission ticket from RS to RS, requesting an RPT - Client couldn't ask for specific scopes before, but now it optionally can - After the authorization process, if success, AS grants some set of permissions - Right now, as it was in UMA1, the AS is allowed to grant some permissions or no permissions if it's the case that only some of the RO's policy conditions were satisfied -- this is up for discussion Use case: - Alice uses an UMA-protected cloud file system API (RS), with *files* and *folders* as protectable resources. - Folders have scopes *read*, *write*, and *search*. - Files have scopes *read*, *write*, and *execute*. - Folders can contain files and other folders, and any one file can more than one "folder parent". However, this is known only to the RS, not to the AS. - The RS is able to tell a distinct RO and AS for every location URI for a file or folder by means of an internal mapping process. - Alice has resources with names as follows (let's use the name as the ID, for clarity of discussion): - folder "deciduous-trees' - folder "evergreen-trees" - file "birch" in folder "deciduous-trees' - file "larch" in folder "deciduous-trees' - file "fir" in folder "evergreen-trees' - file "yew" in folder "deciduous-trees' and folder "evergreen-trees" We need to answer the following questions (and which others?): - The client attempts to read file "birch". - Presumably the RS can request permission birch:read from the AS on the client's behalf. Can it request: - birch:read+write and also larch:read+write? - *Only* deciduous-trees:read without birch:read if its access control semantics (something like "folders contain/cover files") means that access to a folder confers access to contained files? - *Only* birch:write? Our current UMA1-based wording says no since this wouldn't be sufficient for what the client attempted. - What other permutations? - The client attempts to write a change to file "yew". The RS requests permission for yew:write on the client's behalf (definitely okay). The client takes the resulting permission ticket to the AS's token endpoint. - If the client includes no scopes in its request for an RPT: - If it meets the operative policy conditions only for "write", can we assume that the AS should only ever issue a permission for yew:write? - Are there any circumstances in which having the AS "surround"/extend what the RS requested ever makes sense, such as issuing a permission for yew:read+write or perhaps deciduous-trees:write and evergreen-trees:write? - If the client includes scopes in its request for an RPT, such as read and execute (keeping in mind that the client knows nothing about resource IDs per se and that scopes can differ per "resource type" as they do in this example): - Should the RS interpret this request as referring to the "closest" applicable resource, such as the file on which access was attempted in this case? The "execute" scope only makes sense on files, not folders. What if this logic doesn't make sense in the case of some other API? (We have written up an "invalid_scope" error already, but it may be underspecified.) *Eve Maler*Cell +1 425.345.6756 | Skype: xmlgrrl | Twitter: @xmlgrrl

Client reg for scopes not including X, policy allowing scope X, claims fulfilling that policy...
by Eve Maler 12 Dec '16

12 Dec '16

(Edited the subject line and broke up this thread into two for clarity...) I *think* this subject line captures at least many of the key elements of the interesting conundrum we face here, looking at the thread below. (And notice that it doesn't say that the claims are only about the RqP vs. the client, nor that the claims are provided "live" vs. represented by proxy in a PCT. Check me if I'm wrong about those details!) Justin notes that traditional OAuth implementations draw a hard line, seeming to interpret the "different" text of 6749 only in a "reduction" sense even if it could be interpreted in an "expansion" sense as well. Some strawman thinking-out-loud: What are the reasons that a client registers for scopes in the first place? If it's to express capabilities the client can handle, is it even meaningful for a client to be granted access to a scope it can't use? If the registration for scopes acts as a per-client mask, then it's a kind of least-privilege solution that makes sense in the context of every client the requesting party uses. If the client gains more capabilities and later registers for more scopes, and then attempts access using a new scope, perhaps a PCT that's in place will easily and silently grant that client the necessary access. If the requesting party is forced through an unpleasant interactive flow or something based on poor claims management or TTL strategies, that's an argument for a higher-quality authorization server, not a more permissive release of scopes. *Eve Maler*Cell +1 425.345.6756 | Skype: xmlgrrl | Twitter: @xmlgrrl On Thu, Dec 8, 2016 at 10:03 AM, Justin Richer <jricher(a)mit.edu> wrote: > For my action item from Eve’s post, I would suggest this wording: > > Note: In step 3, the client attempts access to a protected resource with > no token, and in step 4, the resource server requests permissions on behalf > of that client at the authorization server.

Draft minutes of UMA telecon 2016-12-01

http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/UMA+telecon+2016-12-01 MinutesRoll call Quorum was reached. Approve minutes Approve minutes of UMA telecon 2016-11-10 <http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/UMA+telecon+2016-11-10>: Moved by Andi, seconded by John: APPROVED by unanimous consent. Logistics No meetings next week at all (no Dec 8 or Dec 9 meeting). Dec 15 and Dec 16: regular meetings. Dec 22: WG meeting. Dec 23: no Legal meeting. Eve reviewed the "spec end game" timeline as shown above. Work on UMA.next issues *UMA's essential characterization:* Previously we called it a profile. Now it's called a framework, including mention of its extension grant. What's the right characterization? Though UMA has fewer MAYs and SHOULDs than OAuth, it's still general. Framework, application, extension, profile... Only profile is outright inaccurate if it's the only word used. John W suggests "make use of" instead of "leveraging". *AI:* Justin: Please look at the new Note wording in Core 09 Sec 1.4 to see if a) it's okay and b) this wording could replace some instances of the wording that now appears in multiple places in the spec. *Set math:* Eve left out a relevant step in her set math email; the set of scopes that the RS registered at the AS could have a bearing on later steps. If the client only ever registered for *n* scopes out of *m* possible ones, then even if it later asks for more, the *n* scopes are a hard mask/limiting factor. Registering for scopes is simply a part of client registration, so we don't have to talk about the mechanism at all, just the effects of it. Today, clients register for scopes, and the scopes map in some relationship to resources (API calls/endpoints) determined by the API publisher (or the open API that the publisher adheres to). The same is true of UMA, except that the relationship is reified in the RReg interface by virtue of the resource description document that is registered from RS to AS, through a resource ID. (Note that there is an I-D floated in the OAuth WG that has a similar kind of resource ID...) What's weird is registering for scopes – which describe a strange universe of resources – vs specific resources or resource types or suchlike. Apparently the OAuth WG is discussing the latter as client registration upgrades. How can a client dynamically add a scope that they didn't register for in the beginning? Or delete? Well, shouldn't that be for the client registration protocol to figure out? But if the policy conditions have been satisfied, maybe the authorization assessment should still result in granting the permission with the scope requested. Maybe we can "future-proof" against client registration getting smarter and allowing registration for resources or resource types or something. *AI: *All: Please review and respond to the "Set math discussion setup <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/kantara-initiative-uma-wg/sxmvh8ykU…>" email so we can decide key set math questions as expeditiously and thoroughly as possible. Instructions: - Revise abstract and intro to account for characterization discussion. - Define "resource" as separate from "protected resource". Put an xref to the Sec 1.4.3 explanation about how an RS MAY manage complex resources. Attendees As of 3 Oct 2016, quorum is 6 of 11.

Notes from UMA legal telecon 2016-12-02

http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/UMA+legal+subgroup+note… 2016-12-02 - Use case collection and impact on concept mapping - End-of-year planning and news Attending: Eve, John W, Kathleen, Ann, Paul Eve spoke with Tim Reiniger this week, and they contemplated his being able to help with our mapping and use case gathering exercise. ISO 29100 <http://www.iso.org/iso/home/store/catalogue_tc/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumbe…> (free to download – John will provide the download site), an international standard, has definitions of the actors and roles – so this is particularly useful for our generic purposes. (Note the scenario table. Scenarios g and h involve third parties, so those are about something like "downstream" access/sharing/disclosure.) So our current thinking is that we could make good progress on this exercise in short order. We looked at GDPR <http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A52012PC0011>'s Article 6 to explore its rules for enabling a processor to do its stuff. We're hoping to find use case archetypes that are ones our audience most wants to see solved, which can drive a limited number of mappings. Otherwise it will be hard to get our arms around the "toolkits" we want to create. We actually want to solve an unlimited number of use cases, only we want to do it by cleverly developing tools that are responsive and parameterizable to those use cases, using limited resources. Thinking of which use cases we want to collect: Having some health and some IoT and some public-sector is good, but we want to spread them around. See these BSC DG notes <http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/BSC/2016-11+%28November+201…> for three. The NZ POC of UMA <http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/Case+Study%3A+Users+Man…> has a ton. We should invite all of our privacy eagles and legal eagles to contribute their use cases from personal experience. *AI:* Eve: Talk to Colin to get the logistics into the works. After our meeting on Dec 16, we officially have no Legal meetings scheduled for the end of the year! Eve suggests publicizing ad hoc "editorial meetings" to the subgroup, and everyone joining as they can. That way, we can try and live up to our very new mission statement about 2016 deliverables.

Let's focus on use case brainstorming and collecting concept mapping questions. I have a quick update on our efforts to develop interim end-of-year deliverables. Oh, and I did update our mission statement as agreed. *Eve Maler*Cell +1 425.345.6756 | Skype: xmlgrrl | Twitter: @xmlgrrl
