Description

Originally submitted by Jim Basney (Jim Basney) on 2023-08-14

Our Authorization Server requires End-User authentication for every request, so it responds to prompt=none requests with the login_required error code. The specification states, “This error MAY be returned when the prompt parameter value in the Authentication Request is none, but the Authentication Request cannot be completed without displaying a user interface for End-User authentication.”

However, the oidcc-prompt-none-logged-in, oidcc-max-age-10000, and oidcc-id-token-hint tests fail when we return the login_required error code, so we are unable to proceed with oidcc-basic-certification-test-plan.

I request for these test cases to be modified to accept a login_required response so we can proceed with certification for our implementation.

Research direction

Start by locating the oidcc-prompt-none-logged-in, oidcc-max-age-10000, and oidcc-id-token-hint tests, then run them to reproduce the failures with a login_required response. Update the tests to accept that response where the specification permits it, and confirm the oidcc-basic-certification-test-plan can proceed.
