http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200906/msg00009.html

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200906/msg00019.html

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200906/msg00023.html

a) SAML V2.0 Holder-of-Key Web Browser SSO Profile

Tom Scavo noted thread initiated by Mark Stern during public review,  
leading to a number of significant comments, also comment by Scott  
Cantor, producing four comments. He has documented these comments in  
the wiki ( http://wiki.oasis-open.org/security/PublicComments20090326-20090525 
  )

Reverted the document back to draft, draft 12. Lines 416-421 in diff  
show the most important changes in response to the comments,  
emphasizing dependency on assertion profile to address man in middle  
concerns. Relaxing TLS requirement not easy to do so did not address  
comment #2, all others have been addressed.

Scott Cantor noted that if hard to do then could leave it as is,  
noting it is a web browser profile, so therefore it is reasonable to  
keep. Bob Morgan agreed.

Hal Lockhart asked if commenter had a suggestion for alternative  
approach, answer was to allow alternate secure channels.

Tom Scavo noted draft 12 is not substantive change, since changes were  
only clarifications, since TLS change not made.

b) Holder of Key Assertion profile had comments

http://wiki.oasis-open.org/security/PublicComments20090326-20090525

Some were requests for clarification. Question of SAML NameID was not  
clear, so added paragraph in lines 258-260 draft 10 diff to clarify by  
referencing constrained delegation profile. Draft 10 had minor changes  
and has been uploaded to Kavi.

Hal Lockhart suggested committee respond to commenters with  
resolutions of actions (link to wiki) indicating no action on  
suggested TLS change.

Hal Lockhart noted that if the changes are non-substantive no  
additional public review needed.

Tom Scavo noted that the latest drafts include all changes.

Motion: Draft 12 of  Holder -of-Key Web Browser SSO Profile and  Draft  
10 of HOK assertion profile be moved to Committee Draft
Moved by Tom Scavo, Second by Bob Morgan
Motion passed -No objection to unanimous consent

Action: to Tom Scavo to produce CDs of Holder -of-Key Web Browser SS  
Profile and Holder of Key Assertion Profile

Motion:  Hold electronic ballot of Holder -of-Key Web Browser SSO  
Profile and Holder of Key Assertion Profile
Moved by Scott Cantor
Second by Bob Morgan
Motion passed - No objection to unanimous consent.

5. New work items:

(i) Kerberos HOK profile  (Josh/thomas):

http://www.oasisopen.org/apps/org/workgroup/security/email/archives/200906/msg00027.html

Josh Howlett gave some background on Kerberos Holder of key and  
attribute query profiles, noted that shared proposals by email. Also  
noted that shared high level architecture document on list (PDF).

Three protocols proposed for (i) encapsulating Kerberos service  
ticket, (ii) how to use attribute query to ask for attribute, and  
(iii) use holder of key assertion protocol to obtain confirmation  
using Kerberos. Plan to define fourth protocol for composition of  
these for SSO.

Request for comment, some questions are also noted in the documents  
themselves.

Scott Cantor suggested combining two profiles into one single  
attribute profile. Scott Cantor has additional comment on the XML,  
such as requests for multiple attributes (e.g. tickets). He will send  
message to list with details.

Josh Howlett plans to have update before the next teleconference. He  
asks committee that if Kerberos HoK Assertion Profile is based on X. 
509 HoK profile would it be confusing due to duplicate material.  Tom  
Scavo asked if X.509 and Kerberos profiles could be unified, in a  
clear manner. He also noted that this would need to happen if Web  
Browser SSO Profile is not unnecessarily delayed. Tom, Josh and Nate  
agreed it would be good to unify the documents into a single document.  
The committee noted this would be a substantive change, requiring a  
new CD.

Hal Lockhart suggested editors work offline to produce a combined  
document.  The editors noted this will probably not be ready for the  
next call.

Hal Lockhart will delay request for Committee Specification  ballot  
for Holder of Key Assertion Profile and not have one if decision is  
reached on email list to have combined document ( to avoid confusion).

ii) Attribute Query profile (Josh/thomas):

http://www.oasisopen.org/apps/org/workgroup/security/email/archives/200906/msg00027.html

Josh Howlett asked question of whether to support requests for  
multiple service tickets at one time. Not clear if use cases exist.

iii) Encapsulating service ticket document

Josh Howlett noted this is a very simple profile that defines  
attribute - will wait for comments from Scott Cantor.

Meeting adjourned.

regards, Frederick
