V6.8 Authentication with an Identity Provider

Identity Providers (IdPs) provide federated identity for users. Users will often have more than one identity with multiple IdPs, such as an enterprise identity using Azure AD, Okta, Ping Identity, or Google, or consumer identity using Facebook, Twitter, Google, or WeChat, to name just a few common alternatives. This list is not an endorsement of these companies or services, but simply an encouragement for developers to consider the reality that many users have many established identities. Organizations should consider integrating with existing user identities, as per the risk profile of the IdP's strength of identity proofing. For example, it is unlikely a government organization would accept a social media identity as a login for sensitive systems, as it is easy to create fake or throwaway identities, whereas a mobile game company may well need to integrate with major social media platforms to grow their active player base.

Secure use of external identity providers requires careful configuration and verification to prevent identity spoofing or forged assertions. This section provides requirements to address these risks.

V6.8.1 Verify that, if the application supports multiple identity providers (IdPs), the user's identity …	Verify that, if the application supports multiple identity providers (IdPs), the user's identity cannot be spoofed via another supported identity provider (eg. by using the same user identifier). The standard mitigation would be for the application to register and identify the user using a combination of the IdP ID (serving as a namespace) and the user's ID in the IdP.
V6.8.2 Verify that the presence and integrity of digital signatures on authentication assertions (for …	Verify that the presence and integrity of digital signatures on authentication assertions (for example on JWTs or SAML assertions) are always validated, rejecting any assertions that are unsigned or have invalid signatures.
V6.8.3 Verify that SAML assertions are uniquely processed and used only once within the validity period to …	Verify that SAML assertions are uniquely processed and used only once within the validity period to prevent replay attacks.
V6.8.4 Verify that, if an application uses a separate Identity Provider (IdP) and expects specific …	Verify that, if an application uses a separate Identity Provider (IdP) and expects specific authentication strength, methods, or recentness for specific functions, the application verifies this using the information returned by the IdP. For example, if OIDC is used, this might be achieved by validating ID Token claims such as 'acr', 'amr', and 'auth_time' (if present). If the IdP does not provide this information, the application must have a documented fallback approach that assumes that the minimum strength authentication mechanism was used (for example, single-factor authentication using username and password).
