    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4431?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13417117#comment-13417117 ] 

Sergey Beryozkin commented on CXF-4431:
---------------------------------------

It's a good quality patch, thanks, will try to merge it before CXF 2.6.2 is out.

I've been curious if the MAC spec would conflict with 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-tschofenig-oauth-hotk

but it appears the HOTK proposal explicitly mentions MAC as one of the symmetric key profiles, so that should be OK

> CXF currently supports only the Bearer token type. This token type is not feasible for use without SSL.
> OAuth2 specs out the 'mac' token type that requires request signing for authentication using the access token. The spec is described here:
