AGENDA

  1. OIDC plugin - versioning, planning
  2. Duo plugin - delivery of the two alternative implementations vis a vis the plugin/module system
  3. EC2 postmortem

Attendees:


Brent

  • OSJ-304 - Getting issue details... STATUS
    • Done, unless we determine otherwise.
  • OSJ-207 - Getting issue details... STATUS
    • Would like to finally knock this one out, should be easy.  Already added Base64URL encoding/decoding support awhile back.
  • Re Phil's Duo and PKIX work: Maybe we need a different PKIX trust evaluator impl based on e.g. Bouncy Castle, which makes advanced things like dynamic CRL and OSCP easier and more reliable?


Daniel


Henri

  • dev/JOIDC-5 merged to main
  • Hands-on with the plugin model
    • JOIDC-16 - Getting issue details... STATUS  
      • First successful tests with the plugin installer
      • OIDCOPModule / OIDCOPPlugin (net.shibboleth.idp.plugin.oidc.op)

Ian

  • xmlsectool 3: will cut a beta in the next week or so
    • this will require a release of Java parent and java-support
    • will also be doing a scan of xmlsectool's dependencies, incl: Bouncy Castle & Santuario


John

  • Started to get oriented to Jenkins
  • Working on refactoring Ian's PoC Docker-based SP build system to be driven by GNU Make. Aiming to:
    • make the whole thing less monolithic w.r.t. the collection of components that go along with the SP itself
    • enable a dev to build everything locally with Docker
    • also be drive-able by Jenkins
    • couple to Docker loosely enough we can reuse for, e.g., an AWS container-based service, or EC2, or...

Phil

  • JDUO-18 - Getting issue details... STATUS  I went a bit off plan looking into CRL and OCSP revocation checking - at the expense of some other plugin things, my mistake.
    • Most of the info is either in the ticket or in the email thread - thanks Brent for helping with that.
    • Thanks to Brent's IdP changes, revocation checking can be enabled without requiring a static CRL
      • Although you **must** enabled one or both of CRL download from DPs, or OCSP, or an approved static CRL - otherwise, it will always fail.
      • Needs good documentation to highlight the configuration and issues to the deployer
      • Might benefit from some CertPathPKIXValidationOptions checking when injecting the trust evaluator e.g. throw an exception if revocation checking is enabled, but a static CRL (although no way to validate that on startup) or CRLDP or OSCP properties were not set.
  • JDUO-20 - Getting issue details... STATUS removed the auth0 dep, now signs Nimbus JWTs using a - sigh - invalid key.


Rod

  • Nothing


Scott

  • Updating documentation with 4.1 changes
  • Testing
  • JOIDC-15 - Getting issue details... STATUS
