Walkthrough

The documentation adds coverage for DCQL in Presentation During Issuance, embedded Inji Verify integration, and DPoP support. The README links to these guides, and the OpenAPI descriptions specify the DCQL request and response fields.

Changes

Presentation During Issuance

Layer / File(s) Summary
DCQL configuration and wallet exchange
docs/technical_docs/DCQL_Support.md, docs/stoplight_docs/inji-certify-openapi.yaml, docs/README.md
Documents DCQL configuration and wallet request and response details, including the query-ID-keyed vp_token and absence of presentation_submission. Adds configuration notes and references, and README links.
Embedded verifier integration
docs/technical_docs/Inji_Verify_As_A_Library.md, docs/technical_docs/Presentation_During_Issuance.md
Describes request creation and submission handling through embedded verify-core. Updates the issuance flow to pass the vp_token and stored request context to the embedded verifier.

DPoP Support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Token acceptance and proof validation
docs/technical_docs/DPoP_Support.md
Documents token-to-key binding rules, proof-validation checks, replay-cache requirements, and replay outcomes.
Challenges and configuration
docs/technical_docs/DPoP_Support.md
Documents 401 Unauthorized challenges, DPoP configuration properties, conformance tests, and references.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7e173

A wallet using the documented encrypted response mode may fail to complete presentation verification. The unencrypted mode remains a workaround, so the risk is limited but should be clarified before relying on iae_post.jwt.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7e173

The documented integration largely matches existing behavior. One conflicting description of how production verifier configuration is fetched could lead to an insecure deployment, but the documentation also explicitly requires HTTPS. No insecure deployment or new runtime vulnerability is established.

Retained concerns

  • Low · security · inferred: The new configuration table describes non-local VP configuration as fetched over HTTP, while the nearby security guidance requires HTTPS. An operator following the table could deploy the fetch without transport integrity; the reviewed service path does not itself establish a scheme restriction. Actual insecure deployment is not evidenced.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — If an attacker could alter the configuration fetched by a deployment, its credential-selection policy could change for requests using that configuration. The evidence does not establish attacker control, a deployed insecure transport, or a cross-tenant scope.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The non-local profile prevents configured nonce overrides from reaching request creation. Separately, the DPoP validator checks the proof signature, request binding, freshness, token binding, and jti before accepting a proof; neither control establishes integrity of the remote VP configuration fetch.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Repeated presentation submission and session-expiry enforcement cannot be resolved end to end from the reviewed service path: it stores identity after a successful verifier result, but verifier-library replay and expiry behavior is unavailable. This is an existing-path coverage gap, not an established change introduced by this PR.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Make the configuration property table explicitly say HTTPS for non-local fetches, consistent with the security note, and verify transport integrity and write ownership in the deployment that supplies the configuration.

Decode iae_post.jwt before reading vp_token.

IarServiceImpl passes the raw openid4vp_response to IarPresentationService. IarPresentationService parses it as a JSON object and reads a top-level vp_token; it does not decode the encrypted response value. An iae_post.jwt payload can therefore fail parsing or produce the missing-vp_token error.

Decode the response claim before processVpPresentation. If encrypted mode is not supported, document that limitation and restrict step 6 to iae_post.

Suggested documentation fix if encrypted mode is unsupported
-    - if response_mode is `iae_post.jwt` then openid4vp_response is encrypted, {response='...'}
+    - `iae_post.jwt` is not supported by the current `/oauth/iae` processing path. It supplies an encrypted `{response='...'}` value, but the handler does not decode it into `vp_token`.

Applies to all PDI docs

1. iae_post.jwt is described as both supported and unsupported

  • Presentation_During_Issuance.md Phase 2, step 4 now says iae_post.jwt is not supported: /oauth/iae only reads vp_token and never decodes the encrypted response. This is correct; IarPresentationService only looks for vp_token.
  • But these still present it as supported (encrypted response):
    • Presentation_During_Issuance.md: diagram step 9 and Phase 1, step 5;
    • DCQL_Support.md L90;
    • Inji_Verify_As_A_Library.md L71;
    • Stoplight openid4vp_request description (L2608): "response_mode (iae_post or iae_post.jwt)".

Fix: state in all of them that only iae_post is supported for now.

Related code point: IarVpRequestService still maps direct_post.jwt → iae_post.jwt and sends it to the wallet. If verify-core ever returns direct_post.jwt, the wallet would encrypt and Certify couldn't process it. Worth a ticket.

2. The VP request is not "signed"

DCQL_Support.md L22 and L127, and Inji_Verify_As_A_Library.md L57, say the library builds a signed OpenID4VP authorization request. IarVpRequestService.convertToOpenId4VpRequest returns a plain JSON object by value (response_type, client_id, nonce, dcql_query, response_mode, response_uri). Nothing is signed.

Fix: say "an OpenID4VP authorization request (by value)".

3. The failure response in the diagrams is wrong

DCQL_Support.md L143 and Inji_Verify_As_A_Library.md L120 show 400 invalid_request when verification fails. In practice, IarPresentationService sets status = error and OAuthController returns 400 with body {"status": "error"}. A VP without UIN/VID throws invalid_vp.

Fix: show 400 { status: "error" }.

4. Example value for mosip.certify.vp-request.config-file-url

DCQL_Support.md L159 and Inji_Verify_As_A_Library.md L146 give vp_request_config.json as the example. That's only valid as a classpath file on local; elsewhere it must be a URL.

Fix: give both: vp_request_config-local.json (local) and e.g. http://certify-nginx/vp_request_config.json (deployed).


DPoP_Support.md

5. Update after the DPoP code fixes land

These sections describe today's behaviour, which the open code-review fixes change:

  • Failure Responses (L114): "Every failure answers 401 … in the scheme the caller used … for invalid_dpop_proof an algs list." After the fixes:

    • a DPoP-bound token sent as Bearer gets invalid_token (not invalid_dpop_proof);
    • server configuration errors (bad domain.url, missing dpopJti cache) return 5xx, not 401.

    Add an example for the Bearer downgrade case.

  • L71 and the properties table (L134): use the renamed property mosip.certify.dpop.jti.cache-expire-seconds.

6. Cache setup needs more than cache.names

L135 only says mosip.certify.cache.names must include dpopJti. It also needs an entry in mosip.certify.cache.expire-in-seconds, plus mosip.certify.cache.size for the simple cache. Without the expire entry the TTL rule in L71 isn't applied.

Fix: add both properties to the table.

7. Tokens issued by Certify itself are not DPoP-bound

L21 says Certify doesn't issue DPoP-bound tokens, which is right. But it's worth stating the consequence: tokens from Certify's own /oauth/token (the pre-authorized code flow and the Presentation During Issuance flow) carry no cnf.jkt, so DPoP only applies when an external AS such as eSignet issues the token. Readers of the PDI docs will otherwise expect DPoP there.

8. Small accuracy points

  • L41 and L44: the RFC section for the downgrade guard. Refusing a DPoP-bound token sent as Bearer is described in RFC 9449 §7.2 (Compatibility with the Bearer Authentication Scheme); §7.1 defines the DPoP scheme. Please check.
  • L29: "arrived in eSignet 1.8". Please confirm the eSignet version.
  • L19: the replay note is hard to follow. Suggest: "If an attacker captures both the token and an unused proof, they can use that proof once, before the wallet does; the wallet's own request is then rejected as a replay."

Inji_Verify_As_A_Library.md

9. verify-core properties are missing from the configuration table

The table lists only 5 properties. verify-core also needs:

  • inji.keystore.file.path / inji.keystore.file.pass, with a clear note that the bundled classpath:sample-keystore/test.p12 / mosip is for development only and must be replaced in production;
  • inji.did.verify.public.key.uri, inji.did.verify.uri;
  • inji.verify.claims-with-meta-data, inji.verify.redirect-uri.

10. The hard-coded version will go out of date

The Maven snippet (L29) shows 1.0.0-alpha.2-SNAPSHOT. Drop the version, or say "version as in certify-service/pom.xml".


Presentation_During_Issuance.md

11. Text still describes a separate VP Verifier service

The implementation note (L31) is good, but the rest still reads as if the wallet and Certify talk to an external verifier:

  • the diagram participant is "VP Verifier (openid4vp)" → rename to "verify-core (embedded)";
  • the Phase 2 heading says "The Wallet interacts with the VP Verifier", but the wallet only talks to Certify;
  • Phase 1, steps 3–4 say "Instructs the VP Verifier…", which is now an in-process call.

12. Grammar in the new iae_post.jwt line

"if response_mode is iae_post.jwt is not supported…" → "iae_post.jwt is not supported…".

13. Steps 12–13 don't match the current API (older text, but worth fixing while here)

  • Step 12: the token response has no c_nonce (OAuthTokenResponse has only access_token, token_type, expires_in, scope). The wallet gets the nonce from the /nonce endpoint.
  • Step 13: POST /credential with format → POST /issuance/credential with credential_configuration_id (OpenID4VCI 1.0).

Stoplight (inji-certify-openapi.yaml)

The YAML parses fine, and the two PDI description updates (openid4vp_response, openid4vp_request) are correct apart from the iae_post.jwt point in comment 1.

14. Keep in sync with the open code fixes

  • 401 description for the credential endpoint (around L630): update when the Bearer downgrade response changes (invalid_token).
  • credentialSigningAlgValuesSupported description (L1647): it lists the mdoc COSE algorithms ES256, EdDSA, ES256K, RS256. Update it if the allow-list changes (pending confirmation with Swati).

15. Wrong examples for binding methods (older text)

cryptographic_binding_methods_supported (L2177) gives "e.g., did, holder_binding". The real values are did:jwk, did:key and cose_key.
