New issue 635: one-time use of request_uri causing error

Nat Sakimura:

From: Dec 13 Call: 

It was found in Australia that one-time usage for request\_uri in PAR causes errors in some browser-to-app interactions.

A combination of browser and virus checker was consuming the PAR uri by the time the client got the PAR response.

May need some guidance regarding relaxing the strict one-time usage of PAR uri.

Wording from PAR:

> Authorization servers SHOULD treat request\_uri values as one-time use but MAY allow for duplicate requests due to a user reloading/refreshing their user agent.

[https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9126.html#section-4](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9126.html#section-4)

Relaxing one-time usage may be dangerous but might be practical

May write implementation advice/note that these situations may arise

Dima is going to open the issue. We are going to reach out to the Stuttgart team to find if it is a show-stopper if we relax it.
