  Third-Party Token-based Authentication and Authorization for Session
                       Initiation Protocol (SIP)
                 draft-ietf-sipcore-sip-token-authnz-17

Abstract

   This document defines the "Bearer" authentication scheme for the
   Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), and a mechanism by which user
   authentication and SIP registration authorization is delegated to a
   third party, using the OAuth 2.0 framework and OpenID Connect Core
   1.0.  This document updates RFC 3261 to provide guidance on how a SIP
   User Agent Client (UAC) responds to a SIP 401/407 response that
   contains multiple WWW-Authenticate/Proxy-Authenticate header fields.

1.  Introduction

   The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [RFC3261] uses the same
   framework as HTTP [RFC7230] to authenticate users: a simple
   challenge-response authentication mechanism that allows a SIP User
   Agent Server (UAS), proxy or registrar to challenge a SIP User Agent
   Client (UAC) request and allows the UAC to provide authentication
   information in response to that challenge.

   OAuth 2.0 [RFC6749] defines a token-based authorization framework to
   allow an OAuth client to access resources on behalf of its user.

Internet-Draft    3rd-Party Token-based AuthNZ for SIP          May 2020


   The OpenID Connect 1.0 specification [OPENID] defines a simple
   identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol, which enables OAuth/
   OpenID clients to verify the identity of the user based on the
   authentication performed by a dedicated authorization server (AS),
   referred to as OpenID Provider (OP), as well as to obtain basic
   profile information about the user.

   This document defines the "Bearer" authentication scheme for the
   Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), and a mechanism by which user
   authentication and SIP registration authorization is delegated to a
   third party, using the OAuth 2.0 framework and OpenID Connect Core
   1.0.  This kind of user authentication enables single sign-on, which
   allows the user to authenticate once and gain access to both SIP and
   non-SIP services.

   This document also updates [RFC3261], by defining the UAC procedures
   when a UAC receives a 401/407 response with multiple WWW-
   Authenticate/Proxy-Authenticate header fields, providing challenges
   using different authentication schemes for the same realm.


1.1.  Terminology

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP
   14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
   capitals, as shown here.


1.2.  Applicability

   This document covers cases where grants that allow the UAC to obtain
   an access token from the AS are used.  Cases where the UAC is not
   able to obtain an access token (e.g., in the case of an authorization
   code grant) are not covered.


1.3.  Token Types and Formats

   The tokens used in third-party authorization depend on the type of
   AS.

   An OAuth AS provides the following tokens to a successfully
   authorized UAC:

   *  Access token: the UAC will use this token to gain access to
      services by providing the token to a SIP server.

Internet-Draft    3rd-Party Token-based AuthNZ for SIP          May 2020


   *  Refresh token: the UAC will present this token to the AS to
      refresh a stale access token.

   An OP returns an additional token:

   *  ID Token: this token contains a SIP URI associated with the user
      and other user-specific details that will be consumed by the UAC.

   Tokens can be represented in two different formats:

   *  Structured Token: a token that consists of a structured object
      that contains the claims associated with the token, e.g., JSON Web
      Token (JWT) as defined in [RFC7519].

   *  Reference Token: a token that consists of an opaque string that is
      used to obtain the details of the token and its associated claims,
      as defined in [RFC6749].

   Access Tokens are represented in one of the above two formats.
   Refresh Tokens usually are represented in a reference format, as this
   token is consumed only the AS that issued the token.  ID Token is
   defined as a structured token in the form of a JWT.


1.4.  Example Flows

1.4.1.  Registration

   Figure 1 below shows an example of a SIP registration, where the
   registrar informs the UAC about the AS from which the UAC can obtain
   an access token.

                    Figure 1: Example Registration Flow

   In step [1], the UAC starts the registration process by sending a SIP
   REGISTER request to the registrar without any credentials.

   In step [2], the registrar challenges the UA, by sending a SIP 401
   (Unauthorized) response to the REGISTER request.  In the response,
   the registrar includes information about the AS to contact in order
   to obtain a token.

   In step [3], the UAC interacts with the AS via an out-of-scope
   mechanism, potentially using the OAuth Native App mechanism defined
   in [RFC8252].  The AS authenticates the user and provides the UAC
   with the tokens needed to access the SIP service.

   In step [4], the UAC retries the registration process by sending a
   new REGISTER request that includes the access token that the UAC
   obtained in the step above.

   The registrar validates the access token.  If the access token is a
   reference token, the registrar MAY perform an introspection
   [RFC7662], as in steps [5] and [6], in order to obtain more
   information about the access token and its scope, per [RFC7662].
   Otherwise, after the registrar validates the token, it inspects its
   claims and acts upon it.

   In step [7], once the registrar has successfully verified and
   accepted the access token, it sends a 200 (OK) response to the
   REGISTER request.


1.4.2.  Registration with Preconfigured AS

   Figure 2 shows an example of a SIP registration where the UAC has
   been preconfigured with information about the AS from which to obtain
   the access token.

   In step [1], the UAC interacts with the AS using an out-of-scope
   mechanism, potentially using the OAuth Native App mechanism defined
   in [RFC8252].  The AS authenticates the user and provides the UAC
   with the tokens needed to access the SIP service.

   In step [2], the UAC initiates the registration process by sending a
   new REGISTER request that includes the access token that the UAC
   obtained in the step above.

   The registrar validates the access token.  If the access token is a
   reference token, the registrar MAY perform an introspection
   [RFC7662], as in steps [4] and [5], in order to obtain more
   information about the access token and its scope, per [RFC7662].
   Otherwise, after the registrar validates the token, it inspects its
   claims and acts upon it.

   In step [5], once the registrar has successfully verified and
   accepted the access token, it sends a 200 (OK) response to the
   REGISTER request.


2.  SIP Procedures

   Section 22 of [RFC3261] defines the SIP procedures for the Digest
   authentication mechanism.  The same procedures apply to the Bearer
   authentication mechanism, with the changes described in this section.

2.1.  UAC Behavior

2.1.1.  Obtaining Tokens and Responding to Challenges

   When a UAC sends a request without credentials (or with invalid
   credentials), it could receive either a 401 (Unauthorized) response
   with a WWW-Authenticate header field or a 407 (Proxy Authentication
   Required) response with a Proxy-Authenticate header field.  If the
   WWW-Authenticate or Proxy-Authenticate header field indicates
   "Bearer" scheme authentication and contains an address to an AS, the
   UAC contacts the AS in order to obtain tokens, and includes the
   requested scopes, based on a local configuration (Figure 1).  The UAC
   MUST check the AS URL received in the 401/407 response against a list
   of trusted ASs configured on the UAC, in order to prevent several
   classes of possible vulnerabilities when a client blindly attempts to
   use any provided AS.

Internet-Draft    3rd-Party Token-based AuthNZ for SIP          May 2020


   The detailed OAuth2 procedure to authenticate the user and obtain
   these tokens is out of scope of this document.  The address of the AS
   might already be known to the UAC via configuration.  In such cases,
   the UAC can contact the AS for tokens before it sends a SIP request
   (Figure 2).  Procedures for native applications are defined in
   [RFC8252].  When using the mechanism defined in [RFC8252] the user of
   the UAC will be directed to interact with the AS using a web browser,
   allowing the AS to prompt the user for multi-factor authentication,
   to redirect the user to third-party identity providers, and to enable
   the use of single sign-on sessions.

   The tokens returned to the UAC depend on the type of AS: an OAuth AS
   provides an access token and optionally a refresh token [RFC6749].
   The refresh token is only used between the UAC and the AS.  If the AS
   provides a refresh token to the UAC, the UAC uses it to request a new
   access token from the AS before the currently used access token
   expires ([RFC6749], Section 1.5).  If the AS does not provide a
   refresh token, the UAC needs to re-authenticate the user, in order to
   get a new access token, before the currently used access token
   expires.  An OP returns an additional ID Token that contains claims
   about the authentication of the user by an authorization server.  The
   ID Token can potentially include other optional claims about the
   user, e.g. the SIP URI, that will be consumed by the UAC and later
   used to register with the registrar.

   If the UAC receives a 401/407 response with multiple WWW-
   Authenticate/Proxy-Authenticate header fields, providing challenges
   using different authentication schemes for the same realm, the UAC
   provides credentials for one of the schemes that it supports, based
   on local policy.

   NOTE: At the time of writing this document, detailed procedures for
   the cases where a UAC receives multiple different authentication
   schemes had not been defined.  A future specification might define
   such procedures.

   NOTE: The address of the AS might be known to the UAC e.g., using
   means of configuration, in which case the UAC can contact the AS in
   order to obtain the access token before it sends SIP request without
   credentials.

2.1.2.  Protecting the Access Token

   [RFC6749] mandates that access tokens are protected with TLS when in
   transit.  However, SIP makes use of intermediary SIP proxies, and TLS
   only guarantees hop-to-hop protection when used to protect SIP
   signaling.  Therefore the access token MUST be protected in a way so
   that only authorized SIP servers will have access to it.  SIP
   endpoints that support this document MUST use encrypted JSON Web
   Tokens (JWT) [RFC7519] for encoding and protecting access tokens when
   they are included in SIP requests, unless some other mechanism is
   used to guarantee that only authorized SIP endpoints have access to
   the access token.  TLS can still be used for protecting traffic
   between SIP endpoints and the AS, as defined in [RFC6749].


2.1.3.  REGISTER Request

   The procedures in this section apply when the UAC has received a
   challenge that contains a "Bearer" scheme, and the UAC has obtained a
   token as specified in Section 2.1.1.

   The UAC sends a REGISTER request with an Authorization header field
   containing the response to the challenge, including the Bearer scheme
   carrying a valid access token in the request, as specified in
   [RFC6750].

   Note that, if there were multiple challenges with different schemes,
   then the UAC may be able to successfully retry the request using non-
   Bearer credentials.

   Typically, a UAC will obtain a new access token for each new binding,
   However, based on local policy, a UAC MAY include an access token
   that has been used for another binding associated with the same
   Address Of Record (AOR) in the request.

   If the access token included in a REGISTER request is not accepted,
   and the UAC receives a 401 response or a 407 response, the UAC
   follows the procedures in Section 2.1.1.


2.1.4.  Non-REGISTER Request

   The procedures in this section apply when the UAC has received a
   challenge that contains a "Bearer" scheme, and the UAC has obtained a
   token as specified in Section 2.1.1.

Internet-Draft    3rd-Party Token-based AuthNZ for SIP          May 2020


   When the UAC sends a request, it MUST include an Authorization header
   field with a Bearer scheme, carrying a valid access token obtained
   from the AS indicated in the challenge, in the request, as specified
   in [RFC6750].  Based on local policy, the UAC MAY include an access
   token that has been used for another dialog, or for another stand-
   alone request, if the target of the new request is the same.

   If the access token included in a request is not accepted, and the
   UAC receives a 401 response or a 407 response, the UAC follows the
   procedures in Section 2.1.1.


2.2.  User Agent Server (UAS) and Registrar Behavior

   When a UAS or registrar receives a request that fails to contain
   authorization credentials acceptable to it, the UAS/registrar SHOULD
   challenge the request by sending a 401 (Unauthorized) response.  If
   the UAS/registrar chooses to challenge the request, and is willing to
   accept an access token as a credential, it MUST include a WWW-
   Authenticate header field in the response that indicates "Bearer"
   scheme and includes an AS address, encoded as an https URI [RFC7230],
   from which the UAC can obtain an access token.

   When a UAS or registrar receives a SIP request that contains an
   Authorization header field with an access token, the UAS/registrar
   MUST validate the access token, using the procedures associated with
   the type of access token (Structured or Reference) used, e.g.,
   [RFC7519].  If the token provided is an expired access token, then
   the UAS/registrar MUST reply with a 401 (Unauthorized) response, as
   defined in section 3 of [RFC6750].  If the validation is successful,
   the UAS/registrar can continue to process the request using normal
   SIP procedures.  If the validation fails, the UAS/registrar MUST
   reply with 401 (Unauthorized) response.


2.3.  Proxy Behavior

   When a proxy receives a request that fails to contain authorization
   credentials acceptable to it, it SHOULD challenge the request by
   sending a 407 (Proxy Authentication Required) response.  If the proxy
   chooses to challenge the request, and is willing to accept an access
   token as a credential, it MUST include a Proxy-Authenticate header
   field in the response that indicates "Bearer" scheme and includes an
   AS address, encoded as an https URI [RFC7230], from which the UAC can
   obtain an access token.

Internet-Draft    3rd-Party Token-based AuthNZ for SIP          May 2020


   When a proxy wishes to authenticate a received request, it MUST
   search the request for Proxy-Authorization header fields with 'realm'
   parameters that match its realm.  It then MUST successfully validate
   the credentials from at least one Proxy-Authorization header field
   for its realm.  When the scheme is "Bearer", the proxy MUST validate
   the access token, using the procedures associated with the type of
   access token (Structured or Reference) used, e.g., [RFC7519].


3.  Access Token Claims

   The type of services to which an access token grants access can be
   determined using different methods.  The methods used and the access
   provided by the token are based on local policy agreed between the AS
   and the registrar.

   If an access token is encoded as a JWT, it will contain a list of
   claims [RFC7519], including both registered and application-specific
   claims.  The registrar can grant access to services based on such
   claims, some other mechanism, or a combination of claims and some
   other mechanism.  If an access token is a reference token, the
   registrar will grant access based on some other mechanism.  Examples
   of such other mechanisms are introspection [RFC7662] and user profile
   lookups.


4.  WWW-Authenticate Response Header Field

   This section uses ABNF [RFC5234] to describe the syntax of the WWW-
   Authenticate header field when used with the "Bearer" scheme to
   challenge the UAC for credentials, by extending the 'challenge'
   parameter defined by [RFC3261].

   challenge  =/  ("Bearer" LWS bearer-cln *(COMMA bearer-cln))
   bearer-cln = realm / scope-param / authz-server-param / error-param /
                auth-param
   realm = <defined in RFC3261>
   scope-param = "scope" EQUAL DQUOTE scope DQUTE
   scope = <defined in RFC6749>
   authz-server-param = "authz_server" EQUAL DQUOTE authz-server DQUOTE
   authz-server = https-URI
   https-URI = <defined in RFC7230>
   error-param = "error" EQUAL DQUOTE error DQUOTE
   error = <defined in RFC6749>
   auth-param = <defined in RFC3261>

   The authz_server parameter contains the HTTPS URI, as defined in
   [RFC7230], of the AS.  The UAC can discover metadata about the AS
   using a mechanism like the one defined in [RFC8414].

   The realm and auth-param parameters are defined in [RFC3261].

   Per [RFC3261], the realm string alone defines the protection domain.
   [RFC3261] states that the realm string must be globally unique and
   recommends that the realm string contain a hostname or domain name.
   It also states that the realm string should be a human-readable
   identifier that can be rendered to the user.

   The scope and error parameters are defined in [RFC6749].

   The scope parameter can be used by the registrar/proxy to indicate to
   the UAC the minimum scope that must be associated with the access
   token to be able to get service.  As defined in [RFC6749], the value
   of the scope parameter is expressed as a list of space-delimited,
   case-sensitive strings.  The strings are defined by the AS.  The
   values of the scope parameter are out of scope of this document.  The
   UAC will use the scope provided by the registrar to contact the AS
   and obtain a proper token with the requested scope.

   The error parameter could be used by the registrar/proxy to indicate
   to the UAC the reason for the error, with possible values of
   "invalid_token" or "invalid_scope".


5.  Security Considerations

   The security considerations for OAuth are defined in [RFC6749].  The
   security considerations for bearer tokens are defined in [RFC6750].
   The security considerations for JSON Web Tokens (JWT) are defined in
   [RFC7519].  These security considerations also apply to SIP usage of
   access token as defined in this document.

   [RFC6749] mandates that access tokens are protected with TLS when in
   transit.  However, SIP makes have use of intermediary SIP proxies,
   and TLS only guarantees hop-to-hop protection when used to protect
   SIP signaling.  Therefore the access token MUST be protected in a way
   so that only authorized SIP servers will have access to it.  SIP
   endpoints that support this document MUST use encrypted JSON Web
   Tokens (JWT) [RFC7519] for encoding and protecting access tokens when
   they are included in SIP requests, unless some other mechanism is
   used to guarantee that only authorized SIP endpoints have access to
   the access token.  TLS can still be used for protecting traffic
   between SIP endpoints and the AS, as defined in [RFC6749].

   Single Sign-On (SSO) enables the user to use one set of credentials
   to authenticate once and gain access to multiple SIP and non-SIP
   services using access token(s).  If the SSO login is compromised,
   that single point of compromise has a much broader effect than is the
   case without SSO.  Further, an attacker can often use a compromised
   account to set up Single Sign-On for other services that the victim
   has not established an account with, and sometimes can even switch a
   dedicated account into Single-Sign-On mode, creating a still broader
   attack.

   Because of that, it is critical to make sure that extra security
   measures be taken to safeguard credentials used for Single Sign-On.
   Examples of such measures include long passphrase instead of a
   password, enabling multi-factor factor authentication, and the use of
   the native platform browser when possible, as defined in [RFC8252].

   Although this is out of scope for this document, it is important to
   carefully consider the claims provided in the tokens used to access
   these services to make sure of the privacy of the user accessing
   these services.  As mentioned above, this document calls for
   encrypting JWT representing the access token.

   It is important that both parties participating in SSO provide
   mechanisms for users to sever the SSO relationship, so that it is
   possible without undue difficulty to mitigate a compromise that has
   already happened.

   The operator of a Single-Sign-On authentication system has access to
   private information about sites and services that their users log
   into, and even, to some extent, about their usage patterns.  It's
   important to call these out in privacy disclosures and policies, and
   to make sure that users can be aware of the tradeoffs between
   convenience and privacy when they choose to use SSO.

   When a registrar chooses to challenge a REGISTER request, if the
   registrar can provide access to different levels of services, it is
   RECOMMENDED that the registrar includes a scope in the response in
   order to indicate the minimum scope needed to register and access
   basic services.  The access token might include an extended scope
   that gives the user access to more advanced features beyond basic
   services.  In SIP, the AS administrator will typically decide what
   level of access is provided for a given user.

   The UAC MUST check the AS URL received in the 401/407 response
   against a list of trusted ASs configured on the UAC, in order to
   prevent several classes of possible vulnerabilities when a client
   blindly attempts to use any provided AS.
