Re: [Last-Call] [OAUTH-WG] Last Call: <draft-ietf-oauth-jwk-thumbprint-uri-01.txt> (JWK Thumbprint URI) to Proposed Standard

draft-ietf-oauth-jwk-thumbprint-uri-01 uses labels from the Named Information IANA registry to create URIs from hashes, but then why doesn’t it just use the RFC that created that registry and already defines a way to format hashes as URIs [RFC 6920 Naming Things with Hashes]?

 

For a JSON object representing a JWK whose SHA-256 hash (base64url-encoded) is NzbLsXh8uDCcd-6MNwXF4W_7noWXFZAfHkxZsRGC9Xs:

  • RFC6920 defines the URI:
    ni:///sha-256;NzbLsXh8uDCcd-6MNwXF4W_7noWXFZAfHkxZsRGC9Xs
  • draft-ietf-oauth-jwk-thumbprint-uri-01 defines the URI:
    urn:ietf:params:oauth:jwk-thumbprint:sha-256:NzbLsXh8uDCcd-6MNwXF4W_7noWXFZAfHkxZsRGC9Xs

The IESG has received a request from the Web Authorization Protocol WG
(oauth) to consider the following document: - 'JWK Thumbprint URI'
  <draft-ietf-oauth-jwk-thumbprint-uri-01.txt> as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
last-call@xxxxxxxx mailing lists by 2022-05-09. Exceptionally, comments may
be sent to iesg@xxxxxxxx instead. In either case, please retain the beginning
of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   This specification registers a kind of URI that represents a JSON Web
   Key (JWK) Thumbprint value.  JWK Thumbprints are defined in RFC 7638.
   This enables JWK Thumbprints to be used, for instance, as key
   identifiers in contexts requiring URIs.
