OpenID Foundation - Taking a bite out Apple

AppDefects — Mon, 09 Oct 2023 09:15:35 GMT

When Apple announced their forthcoming iOS 13 "Sign In with Apple" service the public rejoiced! Security guaranteed! Privacy preserved! Now, the technical implementation details are coming out we see what a disaster it is in the making. I'm glad to see my friends over at the OpenID Foundation have taken deep technical dive into how the service is implemented and identified a ton of software defects. The list is long. See for yourself here.

It's always been a beef of mine that Apple has thumbed their noses at standards that would guarantee the image of their forward thinking about authentication and the integration of modern MFA options. I love their products. Just not happy with this shortsightedness.

I remember back when Microsoft messed with Kerberos in much the same way ...

And kerberos is still going strong all of the years (since late 1980's)!

Such an elegant protocol ...
