Branch: refs/heads/issue-848-rp-up-verification Home: https://github.com/w3c/webauthn Commit: 5b026ad5fcab52b853995a8ca8f4959bd9f9c0b7 https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/commit/5b026ad5fcab52b853995a8ca8f4959bd9f9c0b7 Author: Emil Lundberg <emil@yubico.com> Date: 2018-03-21 (Wed, 21 Mar 2018) Changed paths: M index.bs Log Message: ----------- Fix #848: Weirdness in RP UP verification §7.1. Registering a new credential currently reads (and §7.2. Verifying an authentication assertion is analogous): >10. If user verification is required for this registration, verify that the User Verified bit of the `flags` in _authData_ is set. >11. If user verification is not required for this registration, verify that the User Present bit of the `flags` in _authData_ is set. This results in the following truth table: UV req. | UP req? | UV res. | UP res. | Accept? ------------+---------+---------+---------+-------- discouraged | Yes | 0 | 0 | No discouraged | Yes | 0 | 1 | Yes discouraged | Yes | 1 | 0 | No discouraged | Yes | 1 | 1 | Yes preferred | Yes | 0 | 0 | No preferred | Yes | 0 | 1 | Yes preferred | Yes | 1 | 0 | No preferred | Yes | 1 | 1 | Yes required | No | 0 | 0 | No required | No | 0 | 1 | No required | No | 1 | 0 | Yes required | No | 1 | 1 | Yes Note, for example, how UV `preferred` means that a response with `(UV=1, UP=0)` should be rejected. It makes more sense to let the UP requirement be defined by the UV _response_ instead of the UV _requirement_: UV req. | UV res. | UP req? | UP res. | Accept? ------------+---------+---------+---------+-------- discouraged | 0 | Yes | 0 | No discouraged | 0 | Yes | 1 | Yes discouraged | 1 | No | 0 | Yes discouraged | 1 | No | 1 | Yes preferred | 0 | Yes | 0 | No preferred | 0 | Yes | 1 | Yes preferred | 1 | No | 0 | Yes preferred | 1 | No | 1 | Yes required | 0 | Yes | 0 | No required | 0 | Yes | 1 | No required | 1 | No | 0 | Yes required | 1 | No | 1 | Yes
