mod_http_oauth2: Advertise the currently supported id_token signing algorithm This field is REQUIRED. The algorithm RS256 MUST be included, but isn't because we don't implement it, as that would require implementing a pile of additional cryptography and JWT stuff. Instead the id_token is signed using the client secret, which allows verification by the client, since it's a shared secret per OpenID Connect Core 1.0 ยง 10.1 under Symmetric Signatures. OpenID Connect Discovery 1.0 has a lot of REQUIRED and MUST clauses that are not supported here, but that's okay because this is served from the RFC 8414 OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server Metadata .well-known endpoint!

Introduction
============

Sometimes you might run clients without encryption on the same machine
or LAN as Prosody - and you want Prosody to treat them as secure (e.g.
allowing plaintext authentication) even though they are not encrypted.

This module allows you to tell Prosody which of the current server's
interfaces (IP addresses) that you consider to be on secure networks.

Configuration
=============

Configuration is simple, just load the module like any other by adding
it to your modules\_enabled list:

        modules_enabled = {
            ...
            "secure_interfaces";
            ...
        }

Then set the list of secure interfaces (just make sure it is set in the
global section of your config file, and **not** under a VirtualHost or
Component):

        secure_interfaces = { "127.0.0.1", "::1", "192.168.1.54" }
