Subject: XACML v3.0 Dynamic Attribute Authority v1.0 approved as a Committee Specification


OASIS Members and other interested parties,

OASIS is pleased to announce the approval and publication of a new Committee Specification by the members of the eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML) TC [1]:

XACML v3.0 Dynamic Attribute Authority Version 1.0
Committee Specification 01
25 January 2022

Overview:

This specification defines a new XACML system component, the Dynamic Attribute Authority, which augments the request context of an XACML authorization request with additional attributes and attribute values that are generated on demand according to a set of rules. The rules are expressed as XACML policies, use obligations to specify the additional attributes and values, and are processed in the normal manner of a Policy Decision Point. This means that a Dynamic Attribute Authority can be readily constructed from existing XACML system components.

A primary use case for the Dynamic Attribute Authority is role enablement, where the dynamic attribute in question is the subject role.

This Committee Specification is an OASIS deliverable, completed and approved by the TC and fully ready for testing and implementation.

The documents and related files are available here:
