Abstract:
   The GSS-API Naming Extensions define new APIs that extend the GSS-API
   naming model to support name attribute transfer between GSS-API
   peers.  Historically, this set of functions has been used to obtain
   the authorization information contained in some sort of authorization
   token provided to the GSS acceptor during the context establishment
   process, such as a Kerberos ticket, a SAML assertion, or an X.509
   attribute certificate.  However, some scenarios require to allow the
   GSS acceptor to request additional attributes after context
   establishment.  If these attributes are not locally stored by the GSS
   mechanism they have to be retrieved from an external source (e.g.
   SQL database, LDAP directory, external IdP, etc.).  This document
   describes how current GSS-API extensions are able to encompass such
   functionality without requiring of any change, neither on the
   existing calls nor on the way applications use the API.
