# OAuth 2.0
https://oauth.net/2/
https://oauth.net/2/grant-types/authorization-code/
Flow:
1. MyWeb tried integrate with Twitter.
2. MyWeb request to Twitter if you authorize.
3. Prompt with a consent.
4. Once accepted Twitter send request redirect_uri with code and state.
5. MyWeb take code and it's own client_id and client_secret and ask server for access_token.
6. MyWeb call Twitter API with access_token.
Definitions:
- resource owner: The resource owner is the user/entity granting access to their protected resource, such as their Twitter account Tweets
- resource server: The resource server is the server handling authenticated requests after the application has obtained an access token on behalf of the resource owner . In the above example, this would be https://twitter.com
- client application: The client application is the application requesting authorization from the resource owner. In this example, this would be https://yourtweetreader.com.
authorization server: The authorization server is the server issuing access tokens to the client application after successfully authenticating the resource owner and obtaining authorization. In the above example, this would be https://twitter.com
- client_id: The client_id is the identifier for the application. This is a public, non-secret unique identifier.
- client_secret: The client_secret is a secret known only to the application and the authorization server. This is used to generate access_tokens
- response_type: The response_type is a value to detail which type of token is being requested, such as code
- scope: The scope is the requested level of access the client application is requesting from the resource owner
- redirect_uri: The redirect_uri is the URL the user is redirected to after the authorization is complete. This usually must match the redirect URL that you have previously registered with the service
- state: The state parameter can persist data between the user being directed to the authorization server and back again. It’s important that this is a unique value as it serves as a CSRF protection mechanism if it contains a unique or random value per request
- grant_type: The grant_type parameter explains what the grant type is, and which token is going to be returned
- code: This code is the authorization code received from the authorization server which will be in the query string parameter “code” in this request. This code is used in conjunction with the client_id and client_secret by the client application to fetch an access_token
- access_token: The access_token is the token that the client application uses to make API requests on behalf of a resource owner
- refresh_token: The refresh_token allows an application to obtain a new access_token without prompting the user

• HTML Injection and stealing tokens via referer header: https://yourtweetreader.com/callback/home/attackerimg.jpg
- Improper handling of state parameter
• Slack integrations allowing an attacker to add their Slack account as the recipient of all notifications/messages
• Stripe integrations allowing an attacker to overwrite payment info and accept payments from the victim’s customers
• PayPal integrations allowing an attacker to add their PayPal account to the victim’s account, which would deposit money to the attacker’s PayPal
- Assignment of accounts based on email address
• If not email verification is needed in account creation, register before the victim.
• If not email verification in Oauth signing, register other app before the victim.
- Disclosure of secrets in url
- Access token passed in request body
→ If the access token is passed in the request body at the time of allocating the access token to the web application there arises an attack scenario. An attacker can create a web application and register for an Oauth framework with a provider such as twitter or facebook. The attacker uses it as a malicious app for gaining access tokens. For example, a Hacker can build his own facebook app and get victim’s facebook access token and use that access token to login into victim account.
- Reusability of an Oauth access token
→ Sometimes there are cases where an Ouath token previously used does not expire with an immediate effect post logout of the account. In such cases there is a possiblility to login with the previous Oauth token i.e; replace the new Oauth access token with the old one and continue to the application. This should not be the case and is considered as a very bad practice.
