5.   External Organizations

5.1.   Berlin Group (Torsten)

  • https://nisp.online/
  • Multi-level SCA for multi-person authorization.
  • Open Banking is also working on something similar so it may be an opportunity.
  • NexGen PSD2 conf in Nov and Dec? It is likely to be a marketing event but could ask "right questions".
  • Torsten met with editor of Berlin Group specification
  • Explained security issue regarding initiating of payments within authorization process which will allow attacker to mount session fixation attack to make someone else pay another's bills
  • OAuth session fixation countermeasures ineffective because action happens before countermeasures become effective
  • Straight solution is to initiate the payment using the payment access token and nothing else, but will require significant changes to BG api,
  • Editor reluctant to change due to irrelevance and may be considered "premium" service
  • Will have follow up discussion on Oct 12 for Next Gen Task Force Advisory board
  • Also discussed w/contacts in German banks, which will implement payment using access token, which may help to influence BG spec
  • Should make a blog post to spread the issue via social media, since the problem eoesn't just apply to BG, Australians might be in same boat.
  • Consumer groups might be interested also
  • A document to explain different attack vectors/models that FAPI Parts 1 & 2 protects against might be useful.
  • Banks might not be fully aware of problem so we need to do more educational reach out on risks involving protocols
  • Torsten added additional security checks in SCA model and references

5.2.   Open Banking UK (Ralph)

  • No new updates
  • OB working on supporting services for PSD2 compliance
  • Doing workshops with vendors to drum up support for standardization of security profile

5.3.   Australia (Ralph)

  • 4 major banks + other banks.
  • Collaborating through git. Some decisions are unilateral.
  • There is concern regarding consent and authorization since person in charge of decision may not be expert in field.
  • Data 61.
  • Australian Competion Consumer Commission conformance certification onboarding. (Acts as federation/security provider, policy information point for lists of accretions, certification and directory services)
  • Aggressive timelines may not be reachable
  • Conformance bodies keen to reuse certification frameworks, standards, toolset, and external bodies to make sure they have secure stable standard. Only one available is OB conformance testing suite harness based on OIDC and FAPI rewrites
  • As part of FAPI blog post, it should respond to not just BG challenges but also to publicly stated directions by other standards bodies.
  • Another round of consultations and validations in November
  • Legislative instruments allow government to to compel providers of certain services to provide APIs is being baked into legislation now. Start with banking and will move to telco and energy. Similar to data portability.

5.4.   Security Profile Comparison (Dave)

  • Trying to finish it in a few days.
  • Freddie Guyera did line by line comparison of changes in R/RW/OB. Will be shared with Dave.

5.5.   European Commission (Nat)

  • Nat will be in Brussels for presentation of OIDC, FAPI so they can be leverage for KYC token, account onboarding
  • Welcome ideas for presentation
  • Objective is to transfer KYC related attributes from one entity to another so receiving entity can onboard the subject using transferred attributes, KYC federation
  • Can use OIDC by using extra claims in ID token or userinfo
  • Blockchain groups also interested, but the key is the source of identity claims.
  • Trust framework and sources for IDP must be considered
  • Torsten has presentation for EIC on Youtube which can provide some ideas.
