Description
in November 2018 the recommendation from the ietf is to no longer use Implicit Grant due to security concerns.
references :
section 2.1.2 of https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-security-topics-09#section-2.1.1
also a general discussion here https://medium.com/oauth-2/why-you-should-stop-using-the-oauth-implicit-grant-2436ced1c926
having said that, I am VERY keen to be able to use the advantages of:
Ember + AWSAmplify + Cognito + Social IDP providers.
so this repo seems like a great direction to go :)
So.. can this repo add support for :
Authorization Code Grant instead of Implicit Grant?
other info:
I have successfully followed these steps in the link below to get an Ember app to have a clickable link which directs to Cognito, which checks with Google, then redirects to a /callback route of my app... however, this doesn't have all the features that ember-simple-auth would support.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/cognito-user-pools-social-idp.html
I notice that that ember-simple-auth repo here https://github.com/simplabs/ember-simple-auth/tree/master/addon/authenticators has authenticators for password grant and implicit , so I'm guessing that an addon could extend this to add a authorization-code authenticator?
thanks
