[Openid-specs-mobile-profile] login_hint behaviour

Hi guys,

Thanks a lot for your responses, I still have a doubt…., please consider next use case:


  1.  The "sub" value is supported as login_hint (is something that we were talking last week with Matthieu from Orange).
  2.  A Service Provider use Mobile Connect as a 2nd factor authentication. The Service Provider already know who the user is, probably he/she has been authenticated using another credentials, (banks use case). It sends the login_hint of the user to re-authenticate him to authorize a transaction for example.
  3.  The OIDC provider is not able to realize who the user is (it doens't support this kind of login_hint, or another reason)

If the OIDC prompts the user to enter the MSISDN and he introduces one that is different from the expected with the login_hint provided in the authentication request, the Service Provider will receive a "sub" different from the expected. Could this use case be possible?

Best,
Gonza.

Asunto: Re: [Openid-specs-mobile-profile] login_hint behaviour

So far and in contrast to id token hint, I interpreted the login hint as "nice to have but not a strong requirement". The semantics you describe is much stronger. I was unable to find a text in the spec describing the use case we are discussing. Can you refer to some text?

Sending an error that authentication is needed.  The client needs to retry without prompt=none so the user can sort it out at the AS.

Clients sending users off to reauth need to be able to deal with the case of a different user coming back.

Hi John,

what behavior would you expect if the user id in the login hint conflicts with the user id of the existing session and prompt != none?

Best regards,
Torsten.

Agreed.

The exception would be in the prompt=none case where you can’t display a UI.

If the login hint or id_token hint is for a different account than the one with the current session you would need to return a error that authentication is required.

Hi Gonzalo,

I would suggest to ignore invalid login_hint values and prompt the user again. As the parameter name suggests, it is just a hint.

best regards,
Torsten.

Hi guys,


We are testing our IDGW and we have a doubt about the behaviour that it should be have regarding the authentication in case of a login_hint is provided in the authentication request. Anyone of you can help us in this topic?

If the MNO is not able to resolve who is the user which the login_hint refers to, what should it do? Return an error or prompt the user to introduce its MSISDN?. In case of asking the user for its MSISDN it could happen that the MSISDN is not the same as the one referred by the login_hint (from the Service Provider side).

Best,
Gonza.
