[jira] [Commented] (GUACAMOLE-618) Azure OpenID with parameter token RDP in NLA does not work.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-618?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16602201#comment-16602201 ]

I suspect the password token was passed incorrectly when using OpenID, I can see that the guacd tried to RDP using the correct username.

The password originally used to authenticate via OpenID is not available to Guacamole for use as a token. This is not a bug, but rather a fact of OpenID. An OpenID identity provider will provide only the user's identity, not their credentials.

It would be rather scary if a downstream user of an OpenID service (say a webapp which integrates with Google) could retrieve your plaintext password purely through you signing in.

A similar issue has been raised in the mailing list a few months ago, has anyone made any progress on this? Any advice is much appreciated.

The mailing list thread above dealt with finding the correct parameters to authenticate with an RDP server that was joined to Azure AD. This also was not a bug, but a question / request for assistance. In the case above, OpenID was not involved.
