release 2.4.16.1

Note that OIDCPKCEMethod none, OIDCSessionMaxDuration 0, OIDCCacheShmMax and OIDCStateCookiePrefix cannot be used in this release, see: #1256, #1252, #1260 and #1254 respectively.

Security

• disable support for the RSA PKCS v1.5 JWE/JWT encryption algorithm as it is considered insecure due to the Marvin attack; it is removed from libcjose >= 0.6.2.3 as well; see GHSA-6x73-979p-x9jr

Features

• add Relying Party support for the FAPI 2.0 Security Profile (OpenID Financial-grade API v2.0)
• add Relying Party support for RFC 9449 OAuth 2.0 Demonstrating Proof of Possession (DPoP)
  configured through the OIDCDPoPMode [off|optional|required] primitive (dpop_mode in the .conf file in multi-OP setups)
• add support for RFC 9126 OAuth 2.0 Pushed Authorization Requests
  configured through OIDCProviderPushedAuthorizationRequestEndpoint and OIDCProviderAuthRequestMethod PAR
• add the nbf claim to the Request Object
• store the token_type in the session and make it available on the info hook together with the access_token
• replace multi-provider .conf issuer_specific_redirect_uri boolean with response_require_iss boolean
  to require the Provider to pass the iss value in authorization responses, mitigating the OP mixup attack
• return HTTP 502 when refreshing acces token or userinfo fails (default: 502_on_error)
• add support for OIDCOAuthIntrospectionEndpointKeyPassword, i.e. to configure a password for accessing the private key file used for OAuth 2.0 token introspection
• when an expression is configured for OIDCUnAuthAction (i.e. in the 2nd argument), also apply it to OIDCUnAutzAction so that it can be used to enable step-up authentication for SPAs with non-conformant browsers (some versions of Safari) and in (potentially insecure) iframes; see #1205; thanks @ryanwilliamnicholls

Bugfixes

• allow overriding defined global configuration primitives to their default value on the individual vhost level
• various fixes to applying default config values and disallowing global/vhost primitives in directory scopes
• apply input/boundary checking on all configuration and multi-provider metadata values
• memcache: correct dead server check on APR_NOTFOUND; see #1230; thanks @rpluem-vf
• tighten up the aud claim validation for received ID tokens
