究竟什么是OAuth(开放授权)?

我从那里得到了一些信息

OAuth Twitter教程:什么是OAuth以及它对你意味着什么 OAuth是什么

但我想学习和了解更多。我在寻找生命周期的信息。为什么大多数社交网络都依赖于这个开放协议?

在不久的将来,随着各种技术的发展(例如ASP.NET),它会成为事实吗?


当前回答

OAuth是一种开放的授权标准,通常用于互联网用户使用微软、谷歌、Facebook或Twitter账户登录第三方网站而不暴露密码。

Oauth无疑正在获得动力,并在企业api中变得流行起来。 在应用程序和数据驱动的世界里,企业越来越多地向外部世界公开api,就像谷歌、Facebook、twitter一样。 随着这种发展,身份验证的三向三角就形成了

1) API提供商——任何通过API公开其资产的企业,比如亚马逊、Target等 2)开发人员-通过此api构建移动/其他应用程序的人 3)最终用户-由亚马逊的注册用户/客座用户提供的服务的最终用户

现在这发展了一个与安全相关的情况-(我列出了这些复杂性中的一些) 1)作为终端用户,您希望允许开发人员代表您访问api。 2) API提供者必须验证开发人员和最终用户 3)最终用户应该能够授予和撤销他们所给予的同意的权限 4)开发人员可以对API提供者有不同的信任级别,其中给予她的权限级别是不同的

Oauth是一个试图以标准的方式解决上述问题的授权框架。随着API和应用程序的突出,这个问题将变得越来越重要,任何试图解决这个问题的标准——无论是外部的还是其他的——都将成为API提供商/开发人员甚至最终用户所关心的事情!

Simply put OAuth is a way for applications to gain credentials to your information without directly getting your user login information to some website. For example if you write an application on your own website and want it to use data from a user's facebook account, you can use OAuth to get a token via a callback url and then use that token to make calls to the facebook API to get their use data until the token expires. Websites rely on it because it allows programmers to access their data without the user having to directly disclose their information and spread their credentials around online but still provide a level of protection to the data. Will it become the de facto method of authorization? Perhaps, it's been gaining a lot of support recently from Twitter, Facebook, and the likes where other programmers want to build applications around user data.

OAuth主要是关于委托授权(选择可以为您进行授权的人)。请注意,身份验证和授权是不同的事情。OAuth是授权(访问控制),如果还想实现身份验证(ID验证),可以在OAuth之上使用OpenID协议。

All big companies like Facebook, Google, Github,... use this kind of authentication/authorization nowadays. For example, I just signed in on this website using my Google account, this means Stackoverflow doesn't know my password, it receives the allowance from Google where my password (hashed obviously) is saved. This gives a lot of benefits, one of them is; In the near future you won't have to make several accounts on every website. One website (which you trust most) can be used to login to all other websites. So you'll only have to remember one password.

OAuth是什么?

OAuth只是一个安全的授权协议,用于处理第三方应用程序的授权,以便在不暴露用户密码的情况下访问用户数据。(例如,在许多网站上登录Facebook, gPlus, Twitter)都在此协议下工作。

各方

当你了解有关各方时,议定书就变得更容易了。基本上,涉及到三个方面:OAuth提供者、OAuth客户端和所有者。

OAuth客户端(想要访问您的凭据的应用程序) OAuth提供者(例如;Facebook, Twitter等) 所有者(拥有Facebook、Twitter等账户的人)

工作原理

我假设了一个场景,一个网站(Stack Overflow)需要添加一个登录与Facebook功能。因此,Facebook是OAuth提供者,Stack Overflow是OAuth客户端。

This step is done by the app's developer. At the very beginning, Facebook (OAuth Provider) has no idea about the Stack Overflow (OAuth Client) because there is no link between them. So the very first step is to register Stack Overflow with Facebook developers site. This is done manually where developers need to give the app's information to Facebook like the app's name, website, logo, redirectUrl (important one). Then Stack Overflow is successfully registered, has got client Id, client secret, etc from Facebook, and is up and running with OAuth.

现在当Stack Overflow的用户点击登录Facebook按钮。Stack Overflow请求Facebook使用ClientId (Facebook使用它来识别客户端)和redirectUrl(成功后Facebook将返回此URL)。因此,用户被重定向到Facebook登录页面。这是最好的部分,用户(所有者)不会把他们的Facebook凭证给Stack Overflow。

After Owner allows Stack Overflow to access the information. Then Facebook redirects back to Stack Overflow, along with authcode using the redirectUrl provided at step 2. Then Stack Overflow contacts Facebook along with the obtained authcode to make sure everything is okay. Only then Facebook will give access token to Stack Overflow. Then access token is used by Stack Overflow to retrieve the owner's information without using a password. This is the whole motive of OAuth, where actual credentials are never exposed to third-party applications.
